    My heart broke for Sarah and the world of pain she's about to enter. And my heart went out to hopeful but anxious Xander, whose world is also about to fall apart. He deserves some karma for his bad acts, but I'm a sucker for him and his lovesick goofiness over both Sarah and the baby. I tend to live in the gray area, lol. 

    I wonder if they originally planned some Patch and Kayla flashbacks and cut them later. I felt cheated in that moment, too. I did love how easily SN slipped  back into Patch's manner of speaking - but it must be like a second skin to him now. 

    I'm afraid we're in for a Kristen/Brady-centric week ahead and I'm not looking forward to her simpering around like an aggrieved victim. Yes, she's a victim but the most insufferable and tiresome one I've seen in a long time.  

    RC said they was supposed to be flashbacks.

    I’ll second that. I feel bad for saying this because she seems like a sweetheart in real life but I don’t find her to be great even for a teen. I know she got a lot of praise during the Oscar storyline but I think she might have looked better against Oscar who was completely terrible. Today, she didn’t play Carly any different than Josslyn so I don’t think she has any range. I think the actors playing Trina and Cameron far outshine her.

    It doesn't help that they had teen s like Amber and kmc who had much harder storylines at her age.

    All I could think of is Lucas  should feel that way about Carly that joss feels about nelle for ruining her family.

    You just kinda have to get over the fact that people never pay for their crimes tbh because none of them ever do. It's a current day soap, it's never gonna happen apparently.

    It's still hard for me with Ben though. I mean the man was a fucking serial killer! I know they did the mental illness thing but they didn't really explain it enough for it to work. Just saying, "He has a metal illness!" isn't enough. They put no effort into it but they never do. Though, if I'm being honest, if I liked Ben more I probably wouldn't care lol.

    But the problem always comes when they try to make people who've done heinous shit into heroes/saints that everyone has to love and root for. That's what they've done with Abigail and Ben. And what they seem like they might be doing with Kristen but they haven't fully gone there yet. They haven't done that with Gabi imo. They allow her to be seen as a flawed/even bad person and that makes it easier to take imo.

    IA Gabi is pretty much getting the Sami treatment

    It is revisionist history if a storyline or character motivation is being changed after the initial story.  It was Abs who was trying to spin Lani's hurtful actions into some sort of loving action instead of the deliberate lie it was--there is nothing complicated about that.  And my lack of believing that Lani was upset or worried about JJ or her lie being exposed was Sal Sowers acting, or the lack there was.  I didn't see any remorse or guilt on her face--just her smiling about her pregnancy.

    So Abs now trying to tell JJ that Lani's lie was actually a sweet gesture feels like gas-lighting an already vulnerable person into believing something this isn't true.

    Characters like Sami and Nicole would be slaughtered when they did crap like lying about there babies paternity but lani does it and she's the town saint.I even think marlena got more crap for having an affair with John and when the truth about belle came out.

    Abigail was established as having DID before the 'Abigail murders Andre and then develops an alter to frame Gabi for it' story? I have only been back to watching for like maybe 3 or so years and I honestly don't remember most of what happens lol but I feel like we didn't find out she had DID until that story. But again, I do not remember things from this show well. 

    In any case, it seems clear to me that 'they have a mental illness so just forget all the bad stuff they did and root for them' is the main takeaway the writers want us to have with both Abigail and Ben.

    I think they might be talking about when abby went crazy after Ben tried to kill her.

  7. The whole Gabi and abby rivalry is so unbalanced it gets brought up about what Gabi did to Abby but nothing about what saint abby did to Gabi that's my problem and they have both done shitty things to each other please Gabi is one of the few characters that actually pays I mean she certainly pays more than Kristen and Kate does.She spent more time in prison for abbys crime while abby got a pat on the head as usual while Gabi got beat to death can't have anymore kids and her daughter hating on her.I have no doubt Gabi will be the pariah again  when her schemes come out which I'll be happy about since she will be out of this stupid storyline and can hopefully something not interesting

    Seriously. I mean to me it's obvious they want us to see Gabi as the evilest evil that ever eviled (she was rude to a waitress for pete's sake!) but like maybe don't write the people she's against as smug assholes and that might work out better for them.

    I have never been able to fully understand him. 

     

    My biggest problem with the Gabi and abby is it's not balanced at all when she's done some shitty things to Gabi just as much as Gabi has to her mentally ill or not.

    I've watched some DID stories on other soaps and none of them came off as smug as abby has

    True, I think  John and Marlena challenged each other when he was Roman. Also, Marlena became a prop in the never ending wars with the Dimeras and she lost her purpose other than loving John and fighting Stefano.  She was much more than that.  We got the old Marlena back during Will's coming out story.  That is the Marlena viewers fell in love with all those years ago.  Marlena was supposed to be a short-term character to fill the void after Laura Horton was written out but the viewers were so fascinated by her and they wanted more..

    Speaking of marlena has she even mentioned will bring in prison which is weird since he's supposed to be her fav grandchild.

    From the conversation in the park Friday, Kristen pushed Haley down a flight of stairs the day the baby passed. But Kristen wasn’t charged with anything however JJ still feels she killed her. Then Kristen left town without saying goodbye and is now in the convent w Lani and Lani knows what happened and is cool w her.  I’m still speculating since Haley was a nurse maybe she did something medically in error that caused a miscarriage or stillbirth. How Kristen wasn’t charged or law looking for her for pushing her is a mystery maybe there were no witnesses idk? 

    I feel like this show is legitimately exciting rn and like the turn some of the characters have taken. CM/JJ has been acting his ass off and I love seeing he give Eric and Brady hell. I have never liked boring Lani but intrigued by her weird friendship and bond w Kristen. I don’t care about Stefano it’s v heavy handed when he’s finally revealed he’s gonna look different or be brainchipped into someone. I kinda want when Gina’s portrait is revealed it’s just a mass of deranged squiggles. 

    Also something strange that maybe part of a future plot point or may be dropped but Doug and Julie mentioned Doug’s Place was destroyed in a flood or fire. Wonder how that happened or is related to some of the other fuckshit going on. 

    Yeah I'm definitely interested in the characters in not usually invested in like what going on with Brady and Kristen and the baby,JJ story definitely he works better as a dark character,will bring in prison and how he got there ect

    I loled!

    I am personally excited for this time jump and all the seeming insanity. I just want to be entertained! I'm sure it'll all go to shit quickly but I suspect I'll enjoy it for a bit. 

    I'm looking forward to it too I don't think spoilers sound that bad
