I want to guess that she's living in her childhood home, Taylor's house. Now wasn't Taylor in Paris with Thorne? If so, wouldn't she have returned for Aly's funeral and to be there for her friend Thorne? And the rest of the Forrester family? And her daughter? If ever a girl needed her mother... Or is Taylor roaming the streets of Paris in her pj's?

Brilliant. But now that you mention it, I am surprised that Disco doesn't already have that up on their website.

Yeah, I was mystified. Is this the house that $Bill gave Waffles and then Chickenhead wanted it to prove that daddy wuved him or some such nonsense?

I miss Sheila.

Were they the ones that "sang" at one of Taylor's funerals? Why would anyone make make two tone deaf talentless children sing on tv? I was so embarrassed for them. Quick question, they actually played that real bridal march for Maya, so is this the first wedding that had this song? Don't they usually play anything but that? And did anyone actually see the quartet, or group of musicians, there? Maybe I wasn't looking when they showed them?

He was really funny on the show 'Til Death.

So Budge is back to being the world's best doctor again? I thought that when she left the show she was Madame X, the world's best fashion designer. And when she said with a big smile that she didn’t want to miss another family function, (you know like Aly's funeral the other day) it was utterly inane. I really didn’t expect her to be so heartless. Hated that they had $Bill apologize. That was so not $Bill. Very out of character.

I watched it with the sound turned off. Can something be funny yet scar you for life at the same time? I thought it was a real George Burns tearing down the fourth wall moment. It was like TK was acknowledging he was the Mystery Date dud. Also, I just have to say it. Creeper's swooshy hair reminds me of Claude Funston in the Zippy the Pinhead comic strip. Every time I see him. Here's a bit about Claude:

Maybe Ivy has OCD, lol. Sorry, couldn't resist. ETA: Oh, wait, I thought it said hoovering. Nevermind.

Another real life fashion news story the show could borrow from - a guy just crashed his car into a US Capitol barricade because he was trying to get a patent for a new clothing design. Although the guy looks like TKRidge, this sounds more like a story for Thomas.

Ridge, there is such a thing as tough love and then there's being an asshole. Tearing up the sketch was way over the top and a super assholy move. Even crazy douchebag Thomas didn't deserve that. How long before Thomas goes postal, any bets? I did love Deacon and Quinn. Although when Brooke was in the scene I was afraid that the three of them were the new Pam and Charlie comic relief. And without Ricky and Maya, (deep breath), it was like it was all A-list cast. Hahaha! (If I made my own A-list of the cast it sure wouldn't include Ridge and Thomas.)

Thank you. All during yesterdays scenes with Chickenhead and Ivy, I felt like he was manipulating her. I'm not sure what his game plan is, but his end-game is getting Steffy. With Chickenhead it's always, I really am a nice guy - I just don't act like it. So yeah, right, Chickenhead.

However much that was it was worth it.

Like father like son.

Speaking of The Bait, how about when they showed the tiniest clip of Josh's rant and then all the captains congratulated him?!! I don't know when they tape The Bait episodes, but when the captains see his full rant they'll want to take those congratulations back.

It was weird that Ivy stayed in the car, considering that she was chasing down Aly in her car, so to speak. Who goes out driving around looking for someone and then when they find them outside of their car in the street - stays in their own car? Then not coming forward to the police with the video? Then, being in the same room with a distraught father who is wanting to know what really happened? Three strikes you're out! I have nothing but disgust for Ivy - unless she shows that vid to Thorne. What, does she like Cousin Steffy better than Cousin Thorne? Not that any father should have to see the second to the last moment of their child's life, but still, it's not like she's withholding it out of compassion for him. I'm beginning to think that Ivy, more than Steffy, deserves Waffles, in all of his waffletude. (He is quite the booby prize.)

Maybe I'm a tad bit more cynical, but I just attribute things like that to acting. Some good Three Stooges sound effects would have helped the scene.

That's an interesting take on it, I didn't see that at all. I saw Steffy intentionally lying to the authorities and everyone else. And I see Steffy being fearful that she will be found out.

Ridge doesn't know what Steffy did. Only Ivy, Chickenhead and of course Steffy know the truth. I was too busy crying to notice - was cousin Zende at the memorial service? Isn't he staying at the house? Thomas sure got a quick flight in. Was everyone already at the funeral parlor and grave before coming to the house? I think Aly would have wanted Hope to be there. Did anyone call, email or text her? It's just surprising how quickly this story is moving along. It's like they can't get rid of Aly fast enough. To get to what - Ridge and Thomas triangling Caroline? And yuck, that miserable dirge they played - I would have rather heard the actors speaking.

Didn't he also say that "Aly" was going from contract to recurring?

Are we even sure we'll see Thorne again? This story's so stupid that this could have been all we'll be seeing of him.

Still better than But not by much.

I'm secretly holding out hope for something like that. So Aly can really stick it to them all! And I'm still hoping Macy might return as I believe that Sally whisked her away to some secret special miracle rehab cure place after that chandelier fell on her. (Of course with Darlene Connelly passed the odds of Macy returning are very, very slim.) I'd love to have C.J. back as well. Wasn't he Rick's only friend ever? Hysterical!

Even thought Nicole wasn't any part of the Aly story, seeing Nicole prance around on the runway just came across in very poor taste and casts a bad reflection on the new couple. At such an intense story line moment I don't think having fluffy filler was the right move, especially something so light-hearted. If they really felt the need to show the blossoming romance in this particular episode it would have been better to have them having some serious or mundane conversation. Something somber would not have been such a stark contrast. They could have saved this fluff for a day or so to coincide with when Zende gets the news about his cousin.

Roseanne's blonde 'do makes her resemble Shirley Jones.
