To me, Jason looks like he is reluctantly going through with the wedding while Carly's "reluctance" is an act to save face. If she got a sniff that Jason was really romantically interested in her, she would lose her mind.

Don't let show fool you. Carter never cheated on Zoe. He had broken up with her and was free and single when he slept with Quinn. The only person that was cheated on is Eric.

Finally show has some couples with chemistry that I can actually root for. I'm really liking Trina with NuSpencer (but I liked her with Cam too, and that went nowhere). They'd better not have him running after Joss too! I've wanted them to go for VAnna ever since Alex pretended to be Anna (~2016?). I was more of a Duke & Anna fan, but I think that Valentin really works for this version of the character. I wonder if they'll go full steam ahead with VAnna or is BLQ still in the picture? I do like her with Chase (please get him out of Milquetoast Millow's orbit). I'm definitely not a Jason fan, but he and Britt have chemistry. I like seeing him angst over having to be with Carly (and Carly's displeasure at not having him feel the way that she obvioulsy does). I'm fine with Jax and Britt having a little fun, but it's hard to take Jax's relationships seriously because it always seems like a big part of him is mainly trying to compete with the former beau.

Hopefully he'll have her things sent to her.

I really enjoyed Thursday's scenes between Gwen and Xander (#Gander?). I saw some actual chemistry as well as an actual romantic connection between the characters. This story feels more organic and genuine than Xander and Sarah's relationship (which I was willing to go with because I enjoyed the actors' chemistry).

It would love it if Britt walked away to avoid the drama and Jason was the one pursuing her despite the MOC with Carly. That would really stick in her craw!

I’m not sure if my perception is correct, but in previous years, it always seemed to me that Carly was suppressing her feelings and trying convince herself that all she wanted from Jason was friendship; however, lately it appears as if Carly is more open with herself and others about her desire to be with him.

Yes, they were first cousins as Liam's father (Bill) and Caroline's mother (Karen) are siblings; so Douglas is Liam's first cousin once removed.

I could see two things happening: Thomas wakes up with a case of amnesia and he forgets what was on the message until after he and Hope are together (or about to get together) as a couple; or Justin threatens/coerces Thomas not to tell the truth about Vinny's plan which would (partially) absolve Thomas of his guilt in keeping the secret.

Maybe they see that Chase and Willow have much better onscreen chemistry than Willow and Michael; so they have to make sure that there is no ambiguity in the scenes.

I think that Xander has chemistry with both Nicole and Gwen (and I think think that either of them would be a better match for him than Sarah), but I do agree that there does seem to be more of a spark with Nicole. I think that going with Gwen makes more sense for now because there is so much water under the bridge with Nicole that I think that it would take too long for them to move them into a legitimate relationship where we could actually buy Xander being conflicted in time for Sarah's return (which I agree will probably be sooner rather than later).

That's the storyline that makes the most sense given how Carly clearly appears to be relishing her current postion; so of course, that won't be where this story goes.

I do believe that the paternity acknowledgement form is a real document in Wisconsin. At this point, Locke is Harrison’s legal father; but by filing this paperwork, he could probably use that as part of a case to have himself declared Harrison’s legal father. IRL, I believe that this would all have to take place in NY since that’s where Locke and Tara live(d).

Typo, I meant not to verify.

Kyle was hemming and hawing about getting involved with Harrison, so it made no sense to him to verify paternity if he wasn’t sure if he wanted to be involved.

So, Tara finally shows her hand. Ashland had her sign a prenup; and she'll be left with nothing etc. Seems like she's hinting that she won't let Kyle around Harrison without a payout.

I wonder how tightly the show will adhere to IRL paternity laws. If I'm not mistaken, in New York (where the case should take place) if a child is born to a married couple the husband is the legal father unless the biological father is identified as such in court.

I'm not getting why people are so up in arms about two single people having a ONS. Carter was free to be with whomever (unless they were married or otherwise involved); and Shauna isn't.

I'm not so sure about that. Wasn't Austin pretty successful in business? And Rex is a doctor, right?

I've suspected that the story would be going there for awhile. I think that Rey is ripe for the picking; and despite poisoning and nearly killing him, Chelsea won't have to work too hard to do it.

I'm hoping that this brings some crazy, fun shenanigans.

I think that's part of the reason why some preferred KM's version. Abby has become (imho) such an unlikable character that it's much easier to just hate her. MM brings the nuance that allows one to actually feel for the character, and for me at least, I become really uncomfortable.

I kind of hope that they go with trying to stay away from each other for a few weeks, then a fullblown affair for another couple of weeks or months before they're ultimately exposed.

KM is definitely doing a great job as Amanda; and I wouldn't mind if she stayed. I had come to enjoy MM as Amanda over the past few months, as I think that she had finally become comfortable distinguishing Amanda from Hilary.

I wouldn't go by that. They could just want the drama of him being in a relationship when Sarah comes back.
