I hope you had a great time on your European getaway! You surely fed us readers with all these episodes, and I must say you definitely did not skip out on the drama.
Oh Helen! You hardly know this man, and you already accepted this proposal from him, like I knew she would. A part of me thinks she did this to get over Adam, though knowing Dale's intention isn't as pure as he is trying to give off makes me question it even more. And speaking of people rushing into marriage, I did not expect Robbie and Madeline to say "I do" this quickly, no less in Vegas. I wonder how they're going to deal with this and the fallout with Kim and Will. Though chemistry does exist between them, though with Robbie having to return to Roboto, I can see him and Kim reconnecting again, causing Madeline and Greg to be envious of the exes, so that's a good quad to explore.
I thought Natasha was somehow going to be diagnosed with lung cancer, but an incurable blood disease was not my bingo card. Even on death's door Natasha takes the time to make an impossible plea to Jacob about marrying Isabelle.
Oh Andrew! It's obvious Antonio is manipulating Andrew's addiction to gambling by giving him this so-called loan. Between him and Daisy's sex work, Antonio is clearly causing problems with the Davenport/Michaels family.
Something tells me Clayton has something up his sleeve regarding busting up Nicholas and Andy, and perhaps it involves Melissa. I mean, where was he all that time?
Good set of episodes!

This was kind of like having dailies -- I spaced them out and read one every other day or so. Fun way to cover the gap while you're on vacation. And so much happened!
Okay, so... I think something is up with Natasha's diagnosis. Shane was just like, "Well, she's dying," and neither he nor Natasha has said a damn thing about even attempting treatments. It isn't like Natasha to take something like this lying down! And she was so quick to urge Jacob to marry Isabelle before she croaks. I feel like she's either faking or exaggerating in order to pry him away from Cassie, and this is going to blow up in their faces. It also gets Robbie back at Roboto (I guess Tyler just won't care now? LOL), so that serves the family. It was nice to see Kim standing by Natasha's side in the face of her imminent death, or "death." But the news of Robbie's elopement with Madeline should cause a whole-ass mess! I love story moves like that because they can totally reset a dynamic, or create a new one, within the space of a few scenes. Although if Madeline didn't like competing with a ghost, she sure as hell isn't going to enjoy competing with a woman who's in the same office as Robbie.
It seemed like Trenyce was finally catching on to the fact that Cheresa knows The Secret after Chris told her about his conversation with Cheresa. Better late than never, I suppose! Although I guess she could still think it's about the kiss that Cheresa already knew about. What a mess! (Where do they keep putting little BJ, anyway?!) It was awfully slick of Antonio to offer Andrew that loan, and he took the bait hook, line, and sinker. I see all of this getting worse before it gets any better. Daisy is not being nearly as discreet as she'd like to think, either. I feel like Andrew's on the verge of figuring out what's going on there.
Pretty villainous of Jasper to snatch Olly, but considering how lackadaisical Donovan and Lukas seem to be about everything -- including this HUGE FIGHT they're in and the general welfare of their son -- I'm not surprised he pulled it off. Did they go a whole day without even checking on that kid?! Because Jasper snuck in, then we saw them commenting that Olly was sleeping in, and then it was nighttime before they noticed he was gone. And then they just sat around waiting overnight for Simona to show up? Good lord! They should lose custody just for that. Maybe tell your PI sister what's going on, Lukas??? I can't imagine waiting an entire night knowing that my child was missing, and now the police have missed the first crucial hours of the investigation. These people all need to be locked up at Raven's Meadow!
It was funny seeing Frederick react to the news of the restraining order. But Bryce was clever in how he played his hand there. I wonder who will be the first to discover Victoria and Eva in there. They came so close with Will!
I see Helen still does not have her wits about her, given that she accepted Dale's proposal. And it seems we now know that he is up to no good. At least Dawn tried to come to her mom's defense!
I hope you had an incredible time abroad! The pics looked amazing and made me want to be back in Italy so badly.

I hope you had a great time on your European getaway! You surely fed us readers with all these episodes, and I must say you definitely did not skip out on the drama. Oh Helen! You hardly know this man, and you already accepted this proposal from him, like I knew she would. A part of me thinks she did this to get over Adam, though knowing Dale's intention isn't as pure as he is trying to give off makes me question it even more. And speaking of people rushing into marriage, I did not expect Robbie and Madeline to say "I do" this quickly, no less in Vegas. I wonder how they're going to deal with this and the fallout with Kim and Will. Though chemistry does exist between them, though with Robbie having to return to Roboto, I can see him and Kim reconnecting again, causing Madeline and Greg to be envious of the exes, so that's a good quad to explore. Had Helen refused the proposal, the storyline wouldn't have moved forward. It is jarring that this is moving so fast, but it is fun to see Helen back in the thick of things after really losing her way with plotting to get Adam away from Robin. We will see if Dale has good intentions or if this is a bigger scheme of his. And yes, I wanted the Robbie/Madeline marriage to come as a surprise. This is something else that has happened a record speed but considering they are both on the rebound, it's not a huge surprise. I love this sudden pairing and where this storyline goes, because it will involve Greg and Kim. I thought Natasha was somehow going to be diagnosed with lung cancer, but an incurable blood disease was not my bingo card. Even on death's door Natasha takes the time to make an impossible plea to Jacob about marrying Isabelle. we knew something was happening with Natasha with this constant coughing, and the blood, but now she has this disease. I do love how, even on her deathbed, she is asking the impossible from her children. Will Jacob follow his mother's request? Time will tell. Oh Andrew! It's obvious Antonio is manipulating Andrew's addiction to gambling by giving him this so-called loan. Between him and Daisy's sex work, Antonio is clearly causing problems with the Davenport/Michaels family. Antonio is moving into the middle of these families for sure. He doesn't always have the best intentions, which isn't public to everyone, but it is creating chaos for Andrew and Daisy. This has been such a fun story to tell because it has been so different from anything that I've done. Something tells me Clayton has something up his sleeve regarding busting up Nicholas and Andy, and perhaps it involves Melissa. I mean, where was he all that time? Good set of episodes! Clayton might have something up his sleeve, especially as move towards Andy & Nicholas' wedding ... I mean, what's a wedding on a soap without some drama, right? Thanks for reading! |

I love story moves like that because they can totally reset a dynamic, or create a new one, within the space of a few scenes. Although if Madeline didn't like competing with a ghost, she sure as hell isn't going to enjoy competing with a woman who's in the same office as Robbie. I won't say everything that is happening with Natasha, but there is more of this story to tell; it will be fun to see and will continue to sort of put the family in turmoil. I do love that, even on her deathbed, she wants to keep Jacob and Cassie apart, even though he's never been on a date with Isabelle! And yes, Robbie is back at the company. My plan was never to keep him away too long, and because Tyler got his millions, he won't care that Robbie is back working there. And yes, you're right, Madeline might get a lot more than she bargained for with Robbie working so closely Kim, the woman who might still have his heart at the end of the day. It seemed like Trenyce was finally catching on to the fact that Cheresa knows The Secret after Chris told her about his conversation with Cheresa. Better late than never, I suppose! Although I guess she could still think it's about the kiss that Cheresa already knew about. What a mess! (Where do they keep putting little BJ, anyway?!) It was awfully slick of Antonio to offer Andrew that loan, and he took the bait hook, line, and sinker. I see all of this getting worse before it gets any better. Daisy is not being nearly as discreet as she'd like to think, either. I feel like Andrew's on the verge of figuring out what's going on there. I love that Cheresa is put in the middle of all this because it adds conflict for her, being torn between her biological parents, and her friend, Andrew. This will be a huge weight on her shoulders as we get closer to Trenyce & Chris' wedding. And you're right, the Antonio/Casino/Andrew/Daisy stuff will get worse before anything, but it is a fun storyline to tell because I haven't told one like it before. Pretty villainous of Jasper to snatch Olly, but considering how lackadaisical Donovan and Lukas seem to be about everything -- including this HUGE FIGHT they're in and the general welfare of their son -- I'm not surprised he pulled it off. Did they go a whole day without even checking on that kid?! Because Jasper snuck in, then we saw them commenting that Olly was sleeping in, and then it was nighttime before they noticed he was gone. And then they just sat around waiting overnight for Simona to show up? Good lord! They should lose custody just for that. Maybe tell your PI sister what's going on, Lukas??? I can't imagine waiting an entire night knowing that my child was missing, and now the police have missed the first crucial hours of the investigation. These people all need to be locked up at Raven's Meadow! HA! I don't know if Raven's Meadow has the staff to handle anymore patients right now, but yes, Donovan and Lukas have really been focused on battling each other vs. worried about anything else right now, especially Donovan who has so focused on this revenge plot. And now, Jasper was pushed up against the wall and has Olly. The key to remember, as well, is that Olly is familiar with Jasper, so he won't be overly fussy because he knows Jasper so well. It was funny seeing Frederick react to the news of the restraining order. But Bryce was clever in how he played his hand there. I wonder who will be the first to discover Victoria and Eva in there. They came so close with Will! I see Helen still does not have her wits about her, given that she accepted Dale's proposal. And it seems we now know that he is up to no good. At least Dawn tried to come to her mom's defense! I hope you had an incredible time abroad! The pics looked amazing and made me want to be back in Italy so badly. Bryce is trying to be clever with his quest to find Victoria and he knows that Frederick knows more than he's letting on. Eva and Victoria are also gettig closer to finding a way to get out of the hospital, so we will see if anyone finds them, or if they get out on their own. Helen is just happy that someone other than Adam is paying attention to her; she really lost herself the last couple of years because she was plotting to keep Adam away from Robin, which is not her character at all. But this is all happening so fast, so we will see how it unfolds... Thanks for reading! |
