Where did you both happen to read it? I thought something might happen during November sweeps, given the upcoming departures of Ali and Bryan (since Will's parents really should be there) and a teaser from Freddie. I can wait, though, just as long as it happens! :)

Brady is the dumbest dumbass who ever dumbassed and I will enjoy his downfall.

I liked this, but after some of the posts that followed, I feel that I should explain a bit. I haven't seen it so much here but over on stan twitter? Yikes........it's ugly and flat-out vicious at times. That's the kind of stuff I go out of my way to avoid.

Absolutely, and I'm glad things played out the way they did today. Will was going to wait to tell Paul his intentions re: Sonny until Paul pushed him, and then everything else brought Will & Sonny's plans crashing down. But I was pretty ticked off seeing the complaints (primarily on other boards) about Will being heartless when we didn't know for sure what he'd tell Paul, and today cleared it up. Edit: And now that I think about it some more, it's still not clear that Will would have told him. Either way, I'm glad he recognizes the need to be honest while trying to be as compassionate as possible, given the crazy circumstances. That's one of the weirdest things about this show, lol. They established that Kayla would babysit Ari back when she was a newborn, Will even called her Aunt Kayla at the time. I'm sure there have been plenty other instances where they acknowledged their relationship. They only seem to remember the million ways people are related in Salem when it suits their needs. Otherwise, I guess they feel it's too much to keep track of or might creep people out too much.

I agree with most of this, it's just that I had never thought of Will as quickly attaching himself to other men. That's been my view of Paul, which is why I had been convinced that Will was a rebound for him. I could not agree with you more, though, regarding Saint Paul and that LA retcon. There's a way they could turn the story on its head a bit (by having Paul play dirty now that he realizes where things are headed), which would result in Will & Sonny still being the rooting couple, but that would mean they'd have to sully the great Sparkle's character - you and I know that ain't happening! And the LA hookup was despicable. GW obviously didn't go over well as Will and the writing just piled on the character while he was in the role. Thank goodness that detail has at least been rectified. Don't even get me started on how it makes no sense for Sparkle to be John's kid, lol.

This. All of this. Put it in a frame and hang it up in a museum. I am so thankful that someone else sees it this way. For this and so many other reasons, I need Sparkle to be gone asap.
