For the WIN! 😄

I wonder if Hallmark has a card for that?

Molly has gone past petty and is now in cruelville to Kristina. She treats K like she doesn't deserve to live, and her wet noodle of a husband and her "you're perfect" mother just allow it.

Thank you! How very kind. The apple cinnamon rolls sound delicious! I loved watching Nina rip into Michael, but like a true slimeball, he absorbed nothing. I think Nina should join us too. I move we mock the mockable mercilessly! Perhaps we should invite Michael, Molly and Gladys on and then push them overboard?

I think I might need to buy a ticket for the barge, as the torturing of Nina has commenced. Sasha is better now so it is Nina's turn, I guess. It is amazing how open Willow's work schedule seems to be, being a new hire.I like Sasha and Cody. I wish the lot of Portia, Curtis, Trina, Joss, Michael, Willow, etc, would just go away. Doesn't Stella have any kind of office or private work space? So Felicia is telling her about a patient's finances right in the hall, in front of the elevators, in a loud voice. No patient confidentiality there! Then she and Stella sit down on a couch, again in the hall, to go over insurance forms? I have said before that there are layers to Tracy. She may be ruthless in business but I think there is kindness to her. I also think there is a reason she is standing up for Sasha, beyond just being kind. I think Sasha is going to feel like she deserves to be fired, instead of realizing that Lucy and Maxie stabbed her in the back and are not her friends.

True, true, but slimy Michael is the son of and works for a mob boss, so naturally he would bypass actual criminal activity and become enraged only at those who imposed any consequences of said criminal activity!

Would anyone mind telling me why Lucy is obsessed with the 1% share of ELQ, which sounds like nothing, and why she ever got it since she is not family? If it is not too convoluted to tell?

Glad you feel better! 😀 I have never, ever liked Lucy either. As for Michael, I think he has passed sanctimonious, etc to flat out evil. I don't know why he hates Nina so much, but as he wants to destroy her, that is evil.

Me too! I actually also thought that the dream is about Michael, who has proven already to be very controlling of Willow. I think she is too far into Stepford land to realize it, and Michael will make sure to paint Nina as the one out to hurt her. WHEN will Carly tie her hair back in the diner?

I loathe, loathe, LOATHE Michael! CW did a great job of letting him have it, and she should have ended with it, telling him to tell who he liked, instead of letting him get the upper hand again. But, it's going to be "crucify Nina" time for weeks now that everyone will know. Lucy doesn't care about anything or anyone except herself. I have always thought James was a brat, and everyone has let him get away with it. YAY Sasha isn't leaving! I hope, anyway. I don't care if she and Cody have a romance, I like them, and there is something up Tracy's sleeve about her. Speaking of Tracy, while I was on the barge and never saw it, the thought of Tracy and Luke being married is just ludicrous to me.

Yes I know what you meant. Violence against women, either actual or implied, is disgusting. I was being facetious. However, Sonny is a mob boss. Violence goes with the territory. Great point! I hadn't thought of that. Younger women, older women, women of different ethnicities, could all represent Deception.

I am cool with Sonny threatening Gladys. In fact, I wish they had taken her for a "ride." What she did to Sasha was unforgivable. Well the jig is up now, sourpuss face Michael is going to run with the news about Nina to Willow, and Nina will be on their hit list. Martin is such a cowardly sleazy worm. Loved Cyrus' yelling at Mason!

But if Brook Lynn had been truthful with Chase, Tracy would have had nothing on her. She could have said "no Tracy, I am not going to betray my friends, do your worst." She didn't do that. Tracy held no gun to her head. It is true that Tracy shouldn't have done that, but it was all on Brook Lynn. How has she taken ownership of anything? Has she tried to make amends with Maxie and Lucy?

I hope Sasha stays. I like her. I liked how Tracy was fighting for her, though it is not clear yet, why. Got tired of Maxie's thinking she had to interpret what everyone "meant." Tracy can be ruthless in business but so is Lucy. She doesn't give a rat's hiney about Sasha, and neither does Maxie, really, since neither of them told Sasha she was being replaced before they offered the job to Blaze. It serves them right for being in a bind now, having to take back the offer to Blaze, and I think it would be great if Blaze had some kind of legal recourse against them! More of Brook Lynn and Lois blaming Tracy for everything Brook Lynn chose to do. Also, I don't care if Gladys is an addict, it doesn't give anyone a pass for what they do, and never ever for what she and Dr M did to Sasha. As said, she was being mentally and emotionally destroyed, and nearly murdered, just so Gladys could keep her hands on Sasha's money.

I thought Spencer's head was going to expand and he was going to start spitting venom, like a cobra or something, at Kevin.

Molly, Portia, Lois and Lucy would be just as horrible. Robert's good choices are Holly or Anna, preferably Holly. I don't think Spencer is showing love to Ace, he is showing his dominance over him, and I think someone mentioned that the baby looked frightened when Spencer was grabbing at him. I agree.

I am so over Anna's cowering and whining. That is not who Anna is. Valentin needs to tell her it is his kid after her, so Anna can get on with her life and they get Charlotte some help. Spencer has gone from "I'm entitled to be in Ace's life" to " I WILL be in Ace's life, whether his mother wants that or not. I will browbeat and control Esme, and I will not listen to anything about having no legal rights." It's bordering on abuse now. Esme needs to stand up to him more, and tell him what's what, and especially find out that he thinks what he wants is more important than her parental rights. I don't even know why he was allowed to take that parenting class, not being a parent. The bit with Robert and Diane was cringy and painful. Just no. I agree that Aiden should ask and contract with Carly himself about selling his cupcakes. I wonder what the law would be about selling food made in a home kitchen in a commercial venue. I think the pussyfooting around Charlotte needs to stop. They need to be direct with what they know to be true, and not just with a one talk and done either. She needs to make restitution to Anna. So here are questions, should Charlotte face criminal arson charges? Is it Laura's obligation to disclose, as mayor? What would happen if she didn't, and it came out?

Shh! With any luck, maybe the writers forgot about it. Let's don't remind them! Not only the manic babbling of the world revolving around Molly, and the baby I am feeling very sorry for, but more crucifying of Kristina, for breathing, would follow.

OMG I missed seeing that! It totally looks like it shrunk in the dryer. Not a good look.

I don't think Spencer's attitude, not Michael, though his is bad too, is reasonable since he has installed himself as Ace's defacto parent, when he has zero right to. Only Esme can decide who will be in Ace's life, and anyone being all demanding and entitled can be last on the list. Spencer considers himself superior to Esme, including being a better "parent." I wish he would fall off a cliff.

Yes, sorry, I still get the lookalike guys mixed up a bit. Spencer, not Michael. Though Michael needs to shut up too! I also agree that Blaze's showing up in PR and exactly where Kristina is IS stalkerish and creepy.

Not a fan of the whole lot of Portia, Curtis, Trina, Michael, and really tired of everyone wailing and complaining all the time. More of that tomorrow with Trina screaming about Michael's connection to Esme and the baby. No matter what people say Esme has done, she has been tried and convicted of nothing. Michael has zero claim on the baby unless he has been awarded custody, which he hasn't. In a legal custody case, the judge would see that Esme, the bio mother, takes good care of him, has a job and a place to live. No way would she lose. Michael and Trina need to leave them be and shut up about them. Yeah I also noticed how bad Carly felt about interrupting Nina's honeymoon. Felt all torn up inside about it, I know! I don't know Lois, but I am also tired of her blaming Tracy for everything Brook Lynn chose to do. Loved how Tracy shut her down though! So I am pretty sure that Brook Lynn's now owning the majority of Deception will not endear her to Maxie and Lucy, after she betrayed them. So is the whole issue of the design theft just going to go away now? Also not a fan of Kristina's dress. Nothing about it was flattering to her. Blaze is being pretty clear that she wants something to happen with Kristina, but I just hope Blaze is a good person. I like Kristina, and she has been hurt and diminished enough. Yep, a grape lollipop shoved down Mason's throat would have been ideal! Death by lollipop. Who loves ya, baby? PS, Avery has no taste. Grape is my favorite flavor!

I love the way Cyrus talks though. So articulate and commanding! Ava could have jammed a lollipop down Mason's throat, also!

Not to mention it was $5 million that she just happened to have on hand, so not so much in any going without department, plus, don't forget, true nobility shone when she refused to take Joss's trust fund or whatever! It will be interesting when Carly finds out Nina did it. I know Carly's a baddie but Laura Wright is stellar at playing her!

Thank you, and it really was, wasn't it! I started watching again this summer to see Emma Samms. I know she has health issues but hopefully she will be able to visit again soon!
