And "she's my cousin. I wish she could be supportive of me during my pregnancy...since my mom isn't here to support me. Because she's dead. And she always wanted to be a grandma. But she's dead."

Personally, I "stand" them by spending all of their scenes imagining Lightning entering the scene and finally coming through for me, followed by GhostAJ cackling with glee. And Valerie, please. That's some manipulative "your wife is such a big meanie, you just know she's going to be bitchy to me for the deep meaningful lovemaking we shared while her skankass was off with Dillon lying to you" shit she's going to be pulling. "Look at poor innocent me, who was just trying to be there for you, and now I'm going to be the victim!"

I'm starting to think that it's one of Maya's parents who will die here.

TJ must have found the laundry basket full of sheets that Duke was sleeping in, washed them and changed all the sheets in the house.

Knowing Ron, she'll find out that the kidneys Joss got were made out of corn.

This made me laugh for a solid 10 minutes:

Those poor Days viewers... I love that she mentioned Shawn's poor aim.

Can we somehow transfer that tattoo right on over to BryDawg? He needs it.

I think she got an assist from Steffy. She went over there with her parachute army men and cha cha cha. When faced with the inspiration of Maya and Steffy's FUN!!!!, they were ready to agree to anything the ladies requested.

Avery's internal monologue "Shit! Which one? Which one????"

I know I've missed bits and pieces, but, if I understand what I've seen - Carly took Joss for her 5/4 year cancer checkup, found out she's cancer free, and then dumped Joss who knows where so she could hightail it over to Sonny's to celebrate with him and Avery?

KeMo better watch out if he suddenly starts taking a lot more auditions than usual. Forget "do I smell someone else's perfume on you?" It's "is that a script in your hands??"

Don't lose hope. He left Y&R while he was still dating a co-star there.

The embryo should be the one thing Helena has done (if it does exist) that is too far for Nik. Yeah, he's doing a lot of awful shit, but being cool with his grandmother and father assaulting his little sister in that manner is just a whole other level.

Other than Tracy, I feel like they would all have to be people who we've never seen on screen before. (Is that what you mean?) Because Tracy is the only one in town that we've never seen drink the Holy Hitman Kool Aid.

That's really the only acceptable return of his memories story for me. How boring and pointless if he just goes right back to being the Holy Hitman. I want him to look at everyone who enabled and supported his homicidal self in disgust and horror - Carly and Sonny should get the bulk of it, but he should be disgusted with Sam and some others, too. I also want him to apologize to Monica in a big way (and a monologue in the crypt to Alan and AJ wouldn't hurt, either) for treating his family like crap and looking down his nose at them while he was out killing people in the employ of the fucking moobster. And then I want him to bring both Danny and Jake over for extended visits with Grandma, sitting with her and the boys while she tells them about Alan, AJ, Emily, Edward, and Lila. Michael and Tracy can join in, too. Seriously, I'm going to be SO pissed if he just goes right back to exactly who he was before he took that beautiful roll off the docks and out of our lives. What would be the point?

"I'll warm her up for you son. Or do you need some guidance to help get in there? I'll direct you. At least strap this GoPro on before you start." Well, going by that, at least we have the Liam/Wyatt dates to look forward to.

We can throw Britt in for you, too, if you'd like. Someone, please assure me there's a good sturdy set of stairs in the PCPD.

"One more thing before I go, though, Nik. This is awkward, and I don't know how to put it gently, so I'm just going to come right out and say it. Your kid's an asshole. Do better."

And in his rant about the airline, he talked about how much money they cost Kelly. You know, when they didn't force the volcano to stop right this minute because Bryan Fucking Craig needs to fly home where they don't eat dogs.

OK, there's one woman left in town. She's killed both Michael and Spencer, no mitigating circumstances, she just did it for shits and giggles. Who screws her first - Sonny or Nik?

They could have just had Luke leaving town to go to some out of the country clinic to get extensive therapy (or just leaving town because there's just too much damage done in PC in his life and he needs to retreat and get past it all), and Lulu and Tracy decide to get his whole family in town to send him off. We could have had all kinds of the one on one scenes we've gotten without the stupid "caper" story. Of course, Helena could have crashed it or been waiting for him on his plane after the party, giving the two of them one last scene, too. Shh! Don't ask! Ron will tell us Lucky is running cons like dear old dad.

I was wondering if someone from here stormed the offices and wrote those Bill/Liam/Katie scenes today. It had to be a shoutout. I loved it.

To be fair, Helena has been established as a super-villain who has the resources to have other people perform all sorts of ludicrous miracles. It sucks that they just want to off screen explain the bulk of it, but this isn't remotely out of character for her. I remember even back when Jake first died, there were a few mentions here and there that it wouldn't be surprising if, down the road, we found out that Helena had an actually alive Jake stashed somewhere. There's a reason that, as soon as there was an inkling of rumors that Jake was going to be alive, most people automatically assumed Helena was behind it. This shit is what she does.

I don't think anyone is claiming that someone we "saw" die and donate organs suddenly being alive isn't ridiculous. Of course it is. But it's also not groundbreaking, and not some new thing that Ron invented. Whether it's been done on GH or not before, it's been done on soaps. So whether it was Jake or another character, it's never truly been off the table.
