Looks like this might be a good episode today folks....

Here's what to look forward to:

Alex continues to put the pressure on Daniel and Kevin for his money

Neil's attitude towards Dru sends her right over to confront Carmen

Brad and Nick bump egos when it comes to locating Sharon and J.T

Nikki learns about Sharon

Let's see if everyone will have something to talk about once the show is over...I'm sure I will

Ok, who the hell does Jana think she is? It doesn't matter if she is "running the place", Kevin is the owner and whatever he deems necessary for HIS business is a go. Who is she to be questioning Gloria about ANYTHING? I don't even like Gloria, but I'm just saying.

And can I just say again that Newman Enterprises should be the one getting a security upgrade? First the carjacker, then the Brad hunter, and Now Alex just finds his way right up onto the corporate floor of the building.

Neil makes me SICK, SICK, SICK. That's all I'm devoting to his ass today.

I can't believe Phyllis showed up at the ranch. WTF? Was that necessary? Just as I didn't like Sharon showing up at Brad's, I don't like this. She could have called Nick and then had food delivered. They are making Phyllis look like some desperate hag whose afraid she'll lose Nick because dumbass got herself kidnapped.

Phyllis shouldn't have gone over to the ranch and she doesn't need to keep calling Nick.

Brad looked like he was going to cry...Still don't feel any bit sorry for him, whether his sorry no good butt cried or not. I don't like him and I can't wait till Victoria leaves him and or Sharon moves on to her next Flavor of the Moment

Dru sure did let Carmen have it; too bad it was wasted in a way when she got home, full of an attitude only to learn they threw a surprise party for her. I still don't see Dru keeping her man though.

Looks like tomorrow Lily is going to learn everything about what Daniel and Kevin did. I think in this case, Neil isn't going to pop him one (most likely he'll think about how Dru kept that Whopper of a secret) but rather try to possibly help him. Dru on the other hand will do her "Uh huh, what did I tell you about him Lily...Yup, yup. I told you he was just as low as that mother of his".

Today's epi's sounds really good. I'll be tuning into Soapnet tonight.

Who threw a surprise party for her? I'm still watching it. I'm at the part where Phyllis is telling Daniel to tell Lily about Alex.

The kids threw a surprise party and Neil was just there (he was part of the planning I guess, but he looked less than enthused).

Today's show was sooo much better than yesterday! The highlight was Dru setting Carmen straight. I love that Carmen played the 'Who Me?" role, because that gives the story much more teeth...because the fall out will be soo much better. Oh and Carmen should know, Dru is not an idiot.

Phyllis...well aside from coming over to Nick's and calling him *rme*, shades of the Old Phyllis showed up. When she was talking about blackmailers and people like Alex...and how she knows how they work...pot meet kettle.

As for Brad and Co., Brad almost seems like a different person now and the story is still kind of confusing on some levels...BUT the kidnapping and search for the paintings has upped the story's potential.

I want to know what is up with this Jana girl, she's weird.

Very good show today!

^

I agree, Jana's weird. So is Carmen, kinda. In fact most of the new characters are quirky.

Don't make Dru have to pull out her afro puff! I don't think Carmen had a choice BUT to play, "Who me?" because Dru caught her totally off guard. She can't believe Dru sniffed her out already. Now she'll be more determined than ever to get Neil. The sneaky little !@#$%^&*]. If they give this story the time it deserves, this will be GOOD.

ITA. We all know Dru does not play when it comes to her man. I can't wait until lil Miss Carmen Mess-ta goes to Neil and tell him what happened between her and Dru.

"DON'T MAKE ME PULL OUT MY AFRO PUFF!" --- Dru

That's the line of the day. That's a new one... I freakin' love Victoria Rowell. She can pull out her afro puff on me any day.

Dru has Carmen's number and all she could do is sit there and play dumb. Ha Ha! One thing kinda bugged me though. When Dru called Nick to check up on this meeting she thought Neil had with Newman Enterprises' executives, it just rubbed me the wrong way. She wasn't aware of what's going on with Sharon and I understand that Nick wasn't in the mood to deal with Dru's questions, but I hate how everytime Dru goes talks to anybody outside of her circle, with the exception being Sharon I guess, she's written as a nuisance and they're just humoring her. It's happened with Nick, Victor, Brad, Victoria... I can go on. Does anybody else feel that way?

I like the twist that everyone was planning a surprise birthday party for Dru.

Phyllis got on my freaking nerves today. Did she really have to go all the way over to Nick's to check up on him and bring some food during the Sharon crisis? As if Miguel couldn't whoop up something if they were hungry. She just shouldn't have went over there.

Excuse my language, but.............

!@#$%^&*] BRAD/GEORGE/TOM/DICK/HARRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He has the GALL to be pissed off at JT and Paul, but Victoria told him right. If he had of been honest with everyone, maybe those two would not be in this mess.

Well, Sharon put her faith in this punk..........and now look where it got him.

Brad the hunter. Hahaha

the AfroPuff comment was HILARIOUS!!!

HILARIOUS!!

Beat that Ho down, Dru

What a great episode. I loved the little Dru/Carmen confrontation. Short, sweet, to the point.
