So, how long before Katie becomes suspicious about Ridge/Caroline and decides to take Brooke's advice and go throw herself at Bill? I really, really hope that the show surprises us and Bill steps away saying "thanks, but I'll pass." Then a despondent Katie can end up whining to Liam, leading to a drunken hook up. Please, show?

Suddenly, I'm interested. Please, sweet baby Jasus, please, let Sonny's plan to take out Franco accidentally take out Carly instead. Please. I've been good all year. Also, I love that he wants to hire someone. Because even Sonny apparently knows that Shawn is the worst hit man ever.

I'm right there with you. Of course, I like TK. And if I had that voice in my ear and those hands on mine all day, I'd be having far naughtier daydreams than hers. Plus, I think they have some chemistry. And I'm a complete hypocrite, because I'd probably be skeeved out beyond belief if this was RM's Ridge in the same scenes.

His complete inability to actually kill anyone leaves a tiny, dying daily, shred of hope that he might still be undercover after all, and he sucks because he wants to suck. And he knows that Sonny is just enough of an idiot to continue to employ the world's worst hit man.

Not for lack of trying.

Never mind... double post

Not to mention, Caroline "outed" him to her husband, who Katie knew was feeling uncomfortable with the Ridge/Caroline relationship. Did Katie expect that Caroline should endanger her own marriage to keep Ridge's secret indefinitely?

At this point, I keep expecting that, when we don't see her on screen, she's off staring at pictures of her with her Bill rings on, then glaring at that fucking ribbon.

It just occurred to me - when Patrick finds out Jason is alive, will he remember that Robin told him Jason was dead and have even a moment of "if that wan't true, what was really going on there?" Or will he just be a pouting baby because he wants to get into Sam's pants and Jason's presence puts a damper on that?

I think Disney typically does this in October - air all of their Halloween themed episodes (and, yes, every show in season during this time is likely forced to put a Halloween show together) at the start of the month so they can re-run them numerous times throughout the month. This was probably my least favorite episode of this show so far. It felt like they were told at the last minute "you need to film a Halloween episode" and just threw together whatever they could.

She's probably heard talk around town that the only hotel in town has a problem with the she beast of an owner barging into guests' rooms whenever she damn well feels like it. I assume that's what Sonny wiped his ass with in the bathroom. This may be the most I've ever wanted a soap opera plane to crash. Maybe Shawn was doing target practice and a few of his many wayward shots managed to hit that jet's fuel lines before takeoff or something?

To be fair to Brooke, she's really just pulling a more upfront version of how Katie threw them together in the first place - leave town and let them bond over Will. All she needs to do now is arrange a hot air balloon ride for Bill and Katie in her absence.

But, I'm assuming that Sonny and Carly have exactly zero clues that this is about ELQ and not about Sonny. Generally, if someone shows up on at the doorstep of one of Sonny's relatives toting a gun, it's because of Sonny's business. So if they're concerned that hit man number 2 will be along soon to try and off him and he, therefore, needs to get out of town, then their next natural concern should be that Morgan would pop up next on the list if Michael is hidden away. (And Sonny should also warn Dante and suck it up and give Alexis a heads up for Kristina's sake).

Is Quinn really surprised that Hope is saying she wants her out of their baby's life? Did she really think that she was going to come over and they'd bond over her pregnancy and all would be forgotten? I so badly want Ivy to want more for herself than cajoling Liam into a date and all, but, I realize there are only 3 guys in her age range in town and two are already taken. If only L.A. wasn't such a small town...

Fluke: Morgan? If we kill him, it would take Sonny about 6 months to realize it. "uhhhh.....wait.....wasn't there...another... boy child?"

I took my son to Monday's Raw taping for his birthday. In case we didn't already know that some of the story lines on this show are fake, they've officially crossed over into fake story lines on Total Divas being promoted by fake stories on the regular WWE shows. Nattie came out along with Rosa (Rosa was fighting, Nattie was just in her corner) and T.J. He came down to the ring with earphones in, staring at his phone, and not paying a lick of attention to Nattie. They showed the clip of Nattie complaining about his present for her, and then, later in the match, she got mad at him for ignoring her, and took his phone away from him.

Right before I left to go pick my son up from school today, I heard some of the Maxie/Nathan scenes, and I have to ask - was she counting as a character flaw or some black mark against him that he got drunk and almost slept with Britt (without knowing they were related)? Because, um, yeah... I could see teasing him about it to some extent, because, come on, who wouldn't tease a friend about that? But listing it as part of her reasons for not wanting to go out with him was weird. He was upset, he went out drinking, met up with someone else who was upset and drinking, and they almost hooked up. He had no knowledge that they were remotely connected to each other, let alone brother and sister. I mean, it's not like Liz and Steve got drunk and almost hooked up. I can grant her being unsure of him because she knows he came to town using a fake name and all (although she does know the reasons behind that), but the Britt thing was just a horrible coincidence.

Can someone force Ron to watch the initial build up of Dante/Lulu or something? That was a woman initially rejecting a guy who was really into her but it managed to be cute and fun, and not this hot mess. (Of course, part of that was due to the chemistry JMB and DZ had, but, still, it was so, so, so much better than what we're seeing with Nathan and Maxie.)

What cracked me up was the information that Ivy has apparently been writing to her father about Liam. Oh, Ivy, honey, you've been on one pseudo-date with the guy and you know he's in love with someone else. That is not something you write home to Daddy about.

If they had any real standing to do so, they would have forbade it. He's an adult, they had no real choice in the matter, which is why Sonny was dying to put a bullet in AJ, because it was the only way to get his way.

Wasn't she only his attorney again because he kind of sort of blackmailed her into it? In exchange for helping Kristina get into Yale or something like that? So, yeah, I'm sure she's in tears, Moobster. And how short-sighted to fire the best attorney you've ever had when you've got that whole "shot an innocent man in cold blood" thing hanging over your head just begging to come out (and you're busily planning to kill the mother of your unborn child/grandchild). Of course, being Sonny, he probably figures two things - 1) He'll never get busted, because he's just that smart, and 2) if he does get busted somehow, all he has to do is flash his dimples at Alexis and she'll fall in line and get his ass out of trouble.

I think I said before, I'd love to see BH opposite BM. I think they could be good together. But I have less than zero interest in watching Liz play roadkill on the JaSam highway. Been there. Done that.

All through the Wyatt/Hope scenes, I was thinking that the one question Wyatt really wants to refrain from asking here is "oh, honey, are you crying because you're as happy as I am about this baby, or because this baby means you can't divorce me to be with my brother?"

I was mainly thinking of the shittastic way he wrote all of Tony Geary's vacations and making Laura a wig on a stick.

At this point, I half expect him to recognize it but keep his mouth shut. Patrick needs to get laid after all, and bringing up that the John Doe in the hospital might be Jason would really stretch that "days until I get laid" timetable WAY out. I'm sure he'd say he was keeping quiet to not upset Sam, because he's positive Jason is dead. I mean, Robin told him while under clear duress and everything!
