I would guess that the pay IS that good. The reason she has never been arrested is that from middle aged to old age, women are the most ignored demographic there is. They could be super spies because no one really notices them and certainly no one would ever suspect them. Especially if they act like slightly confused "Nice Old Ladies."

Are you positive she was off the clock? Fake Rafe doesn't strike me as the kind of guy someone would make it a point to see again.

Had a houseguest so I'm a little behind in my viewing, but WHY is everybody in the midwest, in the middle of winter, all walking around with no coats? And most of the younger women are wearing light summer dresses. I know they had no way of knowing that this particular winter was going to be extra cold and extra snowy but to simply have everyone walk around like it's summer is a really bad costume decision.

I don't like the way they're setting Joy up. She seems like she's starting to get obsessed or stalkerish. She and Alex only dated for about 5 minutes so I'm not seeing why she should care that much about him.

AND, how does she even know about Rachel the Demon Spawn, much less know enough about her life that she's willing to keep Ava prisoner? Are 10 year olds generally that reliable when it comes to relationships that she's just willing to take her word for it?

I thought the same thing. Alex declares his undying love without a thought for the person who he was literally in bed with last night. It's like no one cares if she dies or not.

I really don't want the baby to be Aaron's. Otherwise show is setting up Holly to be the "virtuous good girl" vs. Sophia as the "trampy bad girl." I'm NOT saying they should slut shame Sophia but since they're still in high school, I'm afraid that is the way they'll go. Since it's pretty clear that John is supposed to be uber rich (and by extension Brady) couldn't Tate have a conversation with his father where he tells him that Sophia (who will be 18 when the baby is born) definitely wants to give the baby up for adoption but is afraid of her mother (family) cutting her off. Couldn't Tate ask his father to make sure Sophia has enough money to pay for college and get a decent start in life? This seems FAR more humane than trying to make an unprepared teenager give up her life and raise a child she doesn't even want.

Do you mean the Marlena who giggles when someone trashes Sami? Who pretty much encouraged Carrie to have an affair with Rafe - Sami's husband? Who will NEVER, ever forgive EJ for hurting her baby boy Eric but treats Sami like she's kind of a bitch for not forgiving Nicole - who caused her far more pain than EJ ever caused Eric (after all, if Eric can find it in his heart to forgive Nicole for kidnapping Sami's baby and letting her grieve thinking her baby was dead, it's only right that Sami also let it go, right)? Nope, that Marlena is not going to mention anything EJ has done to Sami.

No. It was more like in a movie when the caption reads "One year later" They NEVER said it was a year in the future. They just said a year had elapsed. Since they tend to be fuzzy about which date it is IRL I guess you could think the past was actually a year earlier. I REALLY think people gave it more thought than it deserved.

I'm so sorry to hear you have to go through this. Please know we're all pulling for you. We'll be here with support if you ever need encouragement or just want to vent. Hoping for the best outcome.

I get what you're saying but I REALLY want this whole thing over and done with. Why didn't Sarah just tell Philip that HE was going to be the one to "discover" the letter was a forgery. That way, he could look noble and self-sacrificing (and possibly look better in Stephanie's eyes) by "coming forward with the truth."

I can't believe, when Chanel told Joy that SHE destroyed Chanel and Johnny's marriage that Joy didn't fight back and let her know that, no, their marriage was damaged before she even met Johnny and the only one destroying it was THEM. She SERIOUSLY expected someone she'd only met to think more about her feelings than her own husband? And yes, wouldn't that have been a great introduction -"Hi, I'm Joy. Your husband thought you cheated on him and I came THIS close to having sex with him?" While it might not have been Joy's most rational moment (bearing in mind they both had had a LOT to drink) meeting a man and actually believing him that his marriage is over - he just isn't divorced yet - makes her naive, NOT a bad person.

Since I know nothing about the recast I'm taking guesses - how much is she going to be SORASED?

Hope everyone had the New Year's Eve and New Year's Day they wanted. Hope everyone has a great year.

Wait, so first the concert tickets Holly bought Tate were for "Friday" suddenly she and Doug are talking about going to the concert on NYE. That would mean that Sophia had her appointment on New Year's Day. Boy, the continuity on this show sucks. What an awful excuse for a "party." Everyone (none of whom actually want to be there) was invited at the last minute. You can't invite people to a party if there aren't actually any other guests.
