Apprentice79 February 12, 2015 Share February 12, 2015 (edited) I thought that Will will find out that Next Friday that Sonny and Paul were once a couple, but will not question Sonny about Paul for fear that his affair will be exposed....If Chandler Massey was still playing Will, I would agree with you. Since Freddie is the best actor in the triangle, it makes since for the writers to make him the focus and not Guy's Will...I think Sonny will be heavily featured from now on because he has 2 men vying for him. It could easily have been Will...The writers never explored his lack of sexual experience with other men. Sonny has been his consistent sexual partner, whereas Sonny has had lovers in the past..I have often wondered if that is one of the reasons Sonny wanted Will for himself. The fact that he was a virgin and he could mold him sexually to his liking. Will's lack of sexual experience and youth could have become a source of problem for them. Perhaps, Sonny could have even allowed Will to explore his sexuality by bringing another man into their bedroom. That could have created problems for them. Daytime is no longer daring enough to that kind of storyline. I would have agreed with Will having an affair,if it was done organically and with a character that had no connection to Sonny..It is obvious that the affair was meant for Sonny and at the last minute, they made Will the adulterer...I don't believe Will as written in the past would have cheated on Sonny. He was so heartbroken when Sonny left him for lying about Ari's paternity. He would not have put his family with Sonny and Arianna in jeopardy by betraying Sonny.

stormymac February 12, 2015 Share February 12, 2015 I can only speak for myself, I dislike him because he is smarmy, self-centered, entitled and self-serving. I hate the fact that the show is making him more palatable than Will. They are clearly making Paul/Sonny more rootable than Will/Sonny. So Paul is smarmy, self-centered, entitled, and self-serving, yet the show is making him more palatable and more rootable than Will. How does that work exactly? 1 Link to comment

rustyspigot February 13, 2015 Share February 13, 2015 Paul uses sex as a defense weapon when need be maybe as I try to figure out bad writing. Maybe he didn't sex up Derrick because Derrick is a horny gossip. Derrick is my favorite character in this implausible storyline. Link to comment
271days February 13, 2015 Share February 13, 2015 (edited) Apparently from SOD, Adrienne finds some incriminating text messages on Justin's phone. She gets upset and runs off at which point she meets Lucas and they kiss. Justin goes after her to try to find her,so the question is, will he see them? I 'm not going to be happy if they make Justin an outright cheater to justify Adrienne kissing Lucas. Hopefully he has just been having some type of emotional affair with a colleague (kind of like what Adrienne herself has been having with Lucas). I'm still hoping Adrienne is the one who takes it over the line by getting physical with Lucas. Wally Kurth has an interview in SOD where he says his return is pretty regular. He goes straight to the hospital to see Sonny as soon as he arrives. Adrienne lays into him about the fact that he only returned from Dubai because their son was stabbed, so Justin won't be going back. He says Justin being gone so long has created a rift in his marriage, especially now that his wife is becoming closer to Lucas. He goes on to say that it's only natural for Justin and Adrienne to hit a bump in the road after 25 years together. Apparently viewers will get a clearer picture of what Justin has been up to while he has been away and the audience will enjoy the roller coaster ride Justin and Adrienne will be on. Wally says he is excited about being included in the 50th Anniversary and the upcoming story for Justin. I like Lucas, but I hope Justin and Adrienne remain the rooting couple. With the 50th Anniversary coming up, Justin and Adrienne are one of the few Supercouples left standing. Lucas seems out of place here, not least because of his lack of chemistry with Adrienne IMO. On a totally shallow note, while Lucas and Adrienne are both played by attractive people, I just can't picture them in bed together. But from the same show who paired JJ/Eve and Brady/Melanie, I guess it's a forthcoming attraction. Hopefully, this storyline becomes more like Justin and Hope in 2009, where Justin eventually got back together with Adrienne. Since WK is still filming at Days, I hope this does not drag on too long so Justin and Adrienne can focus on Sonny. I'm also hoping Justin gets involved with Victor. Clearly, the alleged affair he's been having can't mean that much if he's deciding to stay on in Salem. Honestly, if Adrienne was so concerned about Justin, she could have visited Justin in Dubai over these last few months. It's so annoying how this show acts like people who have spouses who are away can't get on a plane to visit them. And of course the spouse who is away must be allergic to the telephone, just to justify their significant others confiding in other men. I really hope the new woman for Lucas does not really end up being Adrienne. I've always thought he had good chemistry with Will's editor, Zoe. She's also on recurring and has been filming a lot more lately, so hopefully my wish becomes reality. Edited February 13, 2015 by 271days 3 Link to comment

271days February 14, 2015 Share February 14, 2015 My baby Sneasel is about to get roasted, LOL. Sonny looks super angry(which I always enjoy because he becomes extra-hot). I predict that Sneasel folds like a house of cards and just confesses everything. I'm hoping for an epic rant from Sonny where he mentions LA, Will hardly being home, and now this. I have to wonder if Sonny will believe Will when he says that he and Paul only actually slept together once. Things should also get exponentially more interesting if Will already knows that Sonny and Paul used to be in a relationship. I still think Will has a right to be upset about being kept in the dark. Even though Sonny is still working it from that hospital bed, I can't help but think how much better it would be if he got right up in Sneasel's face. I like the fact that the confrontation is just between the two of them, although I do wonder how everyone else finds out. I guess Sonny will be convalescing at the K-Mansion! 3 Link to comment
271days February 14, 2015 Share February 14, 2015 (edited) From the spoiler pictures for next week on the NBC website, it looks like Sparkle Paul is the one that brings the tablet with the article to the hospital when he visits Sonny. The blurb for the picture says that 'Paul is horrified by what he has done' so I guess Sonny will be the one to tell Paul that he slept with his husband. The blurb for another picture says that 'Marlena is rocked by Paul's confession' Does he know Will is her grandson? Does he tell her about Sonny? Or is this just about him being gay? It also looks like Will finds Sonny's ring. In the pictures with Paul, Sonny doesn't have his ring on, but it the one with Will he does. Edited February 14, 2015 by 271days 3 Link to comment

DollEyes February 14, 2015 Share February 14, 2015 (edited) I still think Will has a right to be upset about being kept in the dark. I don't, because Paul's being gay wasn't Sonny's secret to tell at the time, since Paul was still in the closet. I do think that Will never would have taken that assignment, if he had known he was interviewing his competition. When you know better, you do better. Not in Will's case. He has "known better" time and time again, but he still has managed to make much more and much worse mistakes than Sonny, before, with and after Paul. If that preview is any indication, Sonny's anger at Will is going to be epic, to say the least. Edited February 14, 2015 by DollEyes 2 Link to comment

If that preview is any indication, Sonny's anger at Will is going to be epic, to say the least. If Paul's secret wasn't Sonny's secret to tell, why did Adrienne know about Paul already? If you can tell your mother, you can tell your husband, especially three years later.If Adrienne found out about Paul herself, Sonny could have chosen to deny, deny, deny. Sonny has a history of lying to Will to protect another individual. One example being the Gabi and Andrew secret. There haven't been any real consequences for Sonny with the previous lies, but that is about to change with this storyline. Perhaps Sonny believes that he is protecting Will because he doesn't want Will to feel insecure, but in my experience Will would probably ascribe more significance to Paul and Sonny from the fact that the relationship was hidden. I know a lot of people don't see it the way I do, but IMO Sonny put Paul and his needs ahead of Will when he chose to keep Paul a secret from Will, a fact Paul may even have used to his advantage. Sonny's lies may have been smaller than Will's but Omission is still betrayal. Edited February 14, 2015 by 271days 2 Link to comment
Artsda February 14, 2015 Share February 14, 2015 Will's got no rights to be angry at all, he cheated on his husband and he was hiding his ring/marriage to Paul. 5 Link to comment
DollEyes February 14, 2015 Share February 14, 2015 (edited) 271days: I respectfully disagree. For one thing, Adrienne was Sonny's mother long before Will was his husband. Sonny has done more lying to protect Will than anyone else, based on covering for Gabi, Sami, Kate and Will re Nick's so-called "death"-or rather, the first one, alone. If Sonny had put Paul above his marriage to Will, then he wouldn't have turned down Paul and told him that he was happily married every chance he gets. Sonny has not only suffered way more than enough consequences already, he almost died. Sonny has made mistakes, but his pale compared to Will's-or Paul's, for that matter. Sonny didn't make Will cheat nor lie about it nor did he make Paul stay in the closet nor not even try to find out who Sonny married after they broke up. Neither Will nor Paul are the victims here; Sonny is, but that looks like it's about to change and I can't wait. Edited February 14, 2015 by DollEyes 3 Link to comment
bantering February 14, 2015 Share February 14, 2015 (edited) Will is part of the media, and threw his mom and cousin under the bus for his writing career.

LeftPhalange February 14, 2015 Share February 14, 2015 (edited) The fact that Sparkle wouldn't leave Sonny alone makes me less opposed to Sonny telling Will about him. Sonny should have told his husband that his ex was harassing him about getting back together, and if Sparkle was outed in the process, oh well. Sparkle should have thought about that before he decided to try to break up a marriage. But, if Sonny didn't want to out Sparkle he could have told Will his ex was in town without specifically saying who the ex was. Edited February 14, 2015 by LeftPhalange 2 Link to comment
Apprentice79 February 15, 2015 Share February 15, 2015 Why doesn't sneasle just lie about sleeping with Paul. Deny, deny, deny, deny...He could always say that Derrick was lying. Derrick never saw him in bed with sparkle. Will cannot think on his feet. Had it been Sami, she would be able to try and get out of her mess. I know that sonny has a dominant personality, but Will is so passive and weak. Will sonny shun Ariana because of will. Some of us have speculated that will may try to keep her from sonny out of spite. What if sonny walks away from Ariana as well to facilitate his divorce from will. He has no legal ties to her, it would be very easy for him to do that... Link to comment
271days February 15, 2015 Share February 15, 2015 (edited) Sonny IMO,would never be able to walk away from Arianna Grace so easily. In fact, once the anger subsides,I could see her being the thing he is most afraid of losing. There was such an anvil when the first thing he mentioned when he woke up was wanting to do activities with AG now that she's walking. All of these guys are gay, so of course they've got to understand that biology is not the only factor relevant to being a parent. But Sonny is in the unique position of essentially being a third parent, with no biological or legal claim to AG. It should be interesting to see Sparkle Paul's response to that.

I'm guessing this is going to add to the drama when Mama Narita comes along and Sparkle Paul is revealed to be Jawn's son. Seems like Will and Paul's relationship is going to become adversarial after this which I'm happy about. It is also apparent that Sparkle is still intent on going after Sonny, which is to be expected. I wonder if CS is watching the same show as me.

Dandesun February 19, 2015 Share February 19, 2015 KM gave CS tips on how to answer interview questions. I wonder if its an issue for younger types... they want their character to be someone that's awesome and good and noble with honor and all that jazz. I love how, in KDP's interviews about Eve she makes no bones that Eve is a hot mess and is doing awful things. It's like THANK YOU! At least it goes hand in hand to what's actually on screen! You can certainly say that Paul maybe WANTS to be honorable but suggest that he's been hiding so long his idea of what honor is, is probably skewed. As for Abigail... or anyone who plays one of the Horton/Devereaux' it would AWESOME if someone just called a spade a spade. "This family is way way way too involved in each others sex lives. It IS weird. It might even be soap weird... but soaps ARE weird so, there you go." That would be refreshing. 5 Link to comment

Apprentice79 February 19, 2015 Share February 19, 2015 I think that they are legally married...I don't think Will would cut Arianna off from Sonny. If he does that, then he would be just like Sami...I would not be surprise if there is a custody battle in the near future with Sparkle encouraging Sonny to fight for Ari.

TeeVee329 February 19, 2015 Share February 19, 2015 If Will is trying to win Sonny around, cutting off access to Ari would be the last thing he should do.

I was not aware of that, but does Sonny not losing Ari in a split still apply if Ari has a mother who is still alive and Ari was not adopted by Will and Sonny (or carried by a surrogate)? I would have an issue with Will losing Ari to Sonny completely. I would also prefer if Ari stayed with Will irrespective of whether Sonny throws Will out or moves out to the K-Mansion. I really don't see Sparkle encouraging Sonny to maintain ties with Ari. It's not just because I think he wouldn't like Sonny still being connected to Will (if Sonny and Sparkle get together).

I'm basing my speculation on the fact that Paul has been without Sonny for over three years so I can see him wanting Sonny to focus on their relationship (if they have one).Paul did not have a problem encouraging Sonny to leave Will for him. Why would a child make him reconsider? Especially a child that is Will's and not biologically Sonny's. CS said 'all is fair in love and war'.

Ruby Red February 19, 2015 Share February 19, 2015 I don't think Sonny is going to jump in a relationship with Paul so easily either, if they will have a relationship again. I don't knoiw how Paul wpuld react when he learns about Ariana, if he really loves Sonny like he claims he does and regrest letting him go three years ago then he may not try and talk Sonny out of maintaining a relationship with Ariana. If he tries and uses the "She is not even your biological child." angle, then well... Boo! What a jerk! It is Sonny's decision to make if he wants to or not, he does not have that sort of pressure like a bio parent has to be there for their child. What Paul wants doesn't matter, he has zero connections to Ariana. Link to comment
Apprentice79 February 20, 2015 Share February 20, 2015 I don't think that sonny will get into a relationship with sparkle. Eventually he will accept Paul because he will be very angry with will. Unfortunately, will is woefully unprepared to go to battle with somebody like Paul. Will has always had people to fight his battles for him. He will not have sonny to protect him and Ariana anymore. I suspect Paul is going to be a real asshole to will because he is very weak and passive. He will be using will's indiscretion and sonny's anger to his advantage. Sonny knows will is weak and he may use that against him. I don't think sparkle will want sonny to have a relationship with Ariana because she ties will to sonny. Link to comment

They're legally married. If Will were to die Sonny as stepfather and as a constant in ill's daughter's life would be expected to maintain custody. He and Will should have started adoption proceedings since she's not old enough to choose, but in any case Will would likely have a will. Link to comment
