TeeVee329 March 30, 2017 Share March 30, 2017 (edited) I mean, I want to like that a character - Kiki - is pursuing a medical career, and that said character is training for that job and didn't just, poof, become licensed between scenes. But that all happening off-screen until Kiki needed to be able to run into Liz as the hospital and offer her terrible, biased advice about Franco ruins all of that. I do appreciate Kiki being professional and wearing a shirt that completely covers her shoulders while on duty. A random robbery at The Floating Rib to push Ned and Olivia's three-times-a-month pairing along and prolong the crap with Ava's pill bottle? Just...why?

Linny March 30, 2017 Share March 30, 2017 What an odd choice to have an auditory flashback during the robbery, as if we wouldn't remember the significance of the pill bottle without that bit. Typical Ava, though, thinking only of covering her ass at all times. The corpse of Nina and Franco's relationship is completely dead and festered, so why am I being forced to watch these two awkwardly interact? You don't know how much I wanted Valentin to show up and drag Franco in his calm, ultra polite tone of voice. Olivia was rattling off the things she wouldn't have if she didn't have Ned, and I kept thinking how she wouldn't have LEO if it wasn't for Ned. She and Julian only had drunken sex because Ned was with Alexis. Kiki needs a big cup of shut the fuck up today. She came across as such an airhead, cheerleading for Franco at all costs. Jake isn't only Liz's son; Jason has an active role as his father and if he thinks Franco is detrimental to Jake's wellbeing, he has every right to try to protect his child. I loved Sam today. She's absolutely right, Liz has blinders on when it comes to Franco because she doesn't want to admit she was wrong about him. She'd rather join up with Kiki and be co-conspirators of the Everyone Love Franco (he's different now, we swear) campaign. 7 Link to comment
Jazzy24 March 30, 2017 Share March 30, 2017 From what I read it was all about Jake. Poor Casey and Alonzo, if the writers didn't suck than I would want Lucky back to take Alonzo and Casey(somebody has to notice them)to Africa. 5 Link to comment
P3pp3rb1rd March 30, 2017 Share March 30, 2017 Lucy was so mean to prevent Ava from getting the statue. I wish the statue would consequently be worthless. But Ava is knowledgeable about it, and she appeared to be angry that Lucy took it. Today's ep seemed cheesy in so many ways: Because Lila's ring was the focus of the robbery, Lila was kind of the angel who ensured that Ned and Olivia would get engaged after all. Did I understand rightly that Jordan and Curtis were setting up a booty call for later, since their date was interrupted by police bidness? Since we know that Jane E is retiring, if she takes Laura with her to Turkey, will the two vets sing their swan song and leave together? Ugh to Nina giving ANYBODY advice, especially Freako. Likewise ugh to Kiki (who is virtually a candy-striper-in -training) giving counseling to an experienced nursing professional about major decisions. Link to comment

Jason, why can't Jake see a therapist while you and Curtis try to find out what happened? Those are not mutually exclusive actions. If you really want to help your son, insist that he sees a professional—someone other than Franco. I'm pretty sure Elizabeth would be on board with that. Wow, Laura, condescending toward the Turks much? Of course Tracy would insult them, but that's because, as she said, Tracy is a bull in a china shop, not because the Turks are "humble...and live simple lives." OMG.

Yes, Tracy's so going to intimidate the Turks with her cell phone. Go back to playing with your Doc McStuffins kit, Kiki. "Our kid"? Shut up, Franco. It was just really random how they had Nina bringing up that it was insensitive of Franco to talk about to her, especially if she was just going to just say "oh it's okay". It felt like the writer was just bringing it up to point out they do know that bit of trivia. But it was terribly awkward all around. 8 minutes ago, HeatLifer said: I really can't with her anymore.

I thought they said the auction house was in Istanbul, but that when Laura spoke to them on the phone yesterday, that the painting had been returned to it's current owner, a monastery in a small remote area. So I can see where Tracy, blowing into town, expecting everyone to say how high when she says jump would be a bit much.

In fact, as it's a monastery, I'd argue the men are probably educated and have decent knowledge of the outside world. Or the abbot at least would. Oh, god, I totally dread watching those scenes. They are going to be awful.

Bringonthedrama March 30, 2017 Share March 30, 2017 So, I guess that means Tracy gets to be the MIL of Lulu's MIL, and Ned gets to be stepdad-in-law to his mother's ex-stepdaughter, Lulu (I'm assuming one of Tracy and Luke's marriages was legal/valid?). And Dillon can have a line like, "Sooo....my brother is now your stepdad-in-law. Weird." For once this type of stuff isn't because of a Corinthos. Huh. 5 Link to comment
Bwill3133 March 31, 2017 Share March 31, 2017 Just let Franco and Nina go. Kiki, I tried. "They are your kids, Elizabeth." Umm not quite. Jake the one you all are talking about has an active father living right there so he does get to be part of the decisions about him. Cody and Andy were raised by the same man but we don't know where they are. Also why isn't Liz talking to anyone but Kiki about this? She needed a Franco cheerleader I know. Just hard to fathom twice married with three children Elizabeth needing custody/life advice from someone in their mid 20s with no kids. Now you want to get married Olivia. Please.

dr. gailey March 31, 2017 Share March 31, 2017 Danny spends most of his time at the Q house these days. We don't know what the hell Molly and TJ are up to. For all we know they got married and live next door to Kristina and Amy. Jasam were looking into the death of Morgan and that damn bomb. They weren't doing mob activities. They broke some laws but that kind of stuff happens even when they let Sam do a PI job. Jason hasn't killed anyone on Sonny's orders in a year. The last people he killed he was saving Sonny in a warehouse. Isn't one of the main complaints on the board is Jason getting a job. Maybe he joins Sam's PI business with Curtis. I don't think Sam was acting superior to Liz at all today. She just spoke some truth when it comes to Franco. He did hurt her and he has hurt Liz. Liz has hung on and done things in order to keep a man. See the whole Jake Doe saga. Sam wouldn't want to see Liz end up hurt even though she shouldn't give a damn about her feelings after what she did but Sam isn't allowed to feel anger about anything but her sperm donor. 4 Link to comment

mostlylurking March 31, 2017 Share March 31, 2017 Ok Sam needs to take SEVERAL seats....saying Liz isn't 100% committed to her kids because of her relationship with Franco? If that is not the pot calling the kettle black than I don't know what is! She has NO ROOM to pass judgement on anyone considering that her husband is also a killer, no matter how much he has supposedly been redeemed. Never mind defending Sonny at every turn after he literally shot two of his family members. I mean, she's right of course. Obviously I get that she would hate Franco and for good reason. However as a person who once kidnapped Liz's kid maybe dial back the self righteousness a tad. 12 Link to comment
