Spoilers and Speculation: Clink Boom and Cheese Fondue

[Peppermint Patty]

Pure speculation on my part, but based on Carly's sudden entry into the baby switch storyline, coupled with her nightmare about the baby missing, I'm going to guess that Harmony and Shiloh kidnap Carly's baby and either demand a trade for Wiley or as revenge against Sonny. Carly will be caught in the middle, and then Jason can jump in to save the day. 

[dubbel zout]

We know something has to happen to the baby, either before it's born or closely after. Otherwise there's no point.

I'd be here for the show rebooting Brook Lynn

If they brought back JE for a temp stay to groom BL as a sort of protégé, I'd watch that. 

I had to put up with years of Alexis and her spawn, (none of them DEAD yet. Not a single one, and yet the Qs drop like flies). So, other people could put up with BL being in everyone's face. I don't think Adrianne Leon has the slightest interest though, if she even acts anymore. So a recast would be necessary. 

Or Hayden could be Tracy's daughter after all. She could be Liz's sister AND a Q. Tracy could have slept with Jeff Webber to get back at Monica, and Naomi lost Jeff's baby and switched them.

Everyone knows it's going to be Courtney, right? FV is just screwing with all of the viewers now.

I'll pray for ya'll if this is true. I hated Courtney more than I can't stand Sam or Kristina. Although....Courtney and Kristina in one scene....HEH.

People would be rushing to their pharmacies for refills *during the first show*.

What could this be?  Because there's no way Lucas unravels the baby swap for himself, one or both of his annoying sisters will get that limelight honor.

[dubbel zout]

Lucas might find out Julian knows more about Wiley than he thought, and the blame game begins. Julian's been propped a lot lately, so we know he's due for a comeuppance.

[TeeVee329]

You know, it might have been interesting if Bobbie worked it out first and was legitimately torn about what to do, given it's a choice between her son and her grandson and given her own history in this arena.

[dubbel zout]

That would be too interesting and a too-logical use of history. Plus, it doesn't involved Jason or Sonny.

I seem to vaguely recall that Lucy was a psychic at one point, I'm guessing Joss goes to her to set up a seance to commune with Oscar's spirit or some such thing.

[30 Helens]

Lucy was indeed a psychic, in one of the character’s most ridiculous and cringe-worthy arcs. So much history gets forgotten on this show, yet they choose to remember this....

[Captanne]

When will they tell us what Choe's music box was about and just exactly who killed Ida?

RE: Dr. O and the baby secret mentioned in the main thread, Kathleen Gati is listed for some episodes in July.

[TeeVee329]

My secret wish is still that Dr. O super, super, suuuper casually busts Valentin and Sasha to Nina, like, just because.  "Oh, by the way, niece, this girl is a fake and your husband knows all about it.  Now, should we go get manis?"

Kim doesn't care who it is.  Julian, Drew, and next Shiloh.  Yes she goes to Shiloh to help her conceive a baby.  Idk if she actually asks him to sleep with her but that's her next pit stop when Drew turns her down today.  Just like Julian did a week ago.

I guess since he's telling the world he is determined to be a father to his son ASAP, and he welcomed Oscar into the DoD house/supposedly liked and respected her son, she figures he is an acceptable, i.e. 'good enough' alternative to Drew or Julian as baby daddy. "You may never find your son, but you can honor Oscar's spirit with me!"

Idk the context of it but she seeks out Shiloh to help her getting a kid.  It's just creepy and pathetic. 

[YaddaYadda]

And it means she's in desperate need of help. She knows what Shiloh is about. 

But apparently the only grieving people allowed counseling are Carly and Sonny.

I don't know what sort of people the writers on soaps are, but I sure question their judgement on a lot of storylines and these beats they choose to focus on.

Shiloh clearly has a temper and is a sociopath on top of being a rapist, but his temper, he loses in front of his lawyer while Willow loses her shit in front of the judge and gets carted off to jail.

Sam is assaulted for Sonny's sake, but that will never be addressed again. Kim is a mess and understandably so because she just lost the one person that mattered in her life. But she's apparently losing some of her sanity now too.

The writers are so backward. Only one woman is allowed to keep it together at the time, otherwise the universe might implode.

Would she have to be a member of DoD to have a baby with him? It's just so weird, this entire thing.

How much does she really know about the DOD stuff? It doesn't seem like Kim and Julian talk much about what's going on in his life so I doubt he has updated her on this unless I missed some scenes. The last time I remember Kim and Shiloh interacting, she was thanking him for helping Oscar.

I don't know if she knows all that much about DoD. But I think it was after Oscar's seizure at the Falls, Shiloh went to visit Oscar at the hospital and started peddling his schpeal to her and Drew. She practically kicked him out of the room and told Drew that Shiloh was a charlatan. That was the word she used to describe him. And even after he showed up at the Q mansion and started dispensing his wisdom, she wasn't having it. But then she went to see him after going through Oscar's things and finding a picture.

So yes, before Oscar died, she had no use for Shiloh and understood what the man was. So her turning to him is rather alarming. 

[TeeVee329]

I have a question about the new promo:

What the hell is with Scotty randomly proposing to Bobbie?  I've missed a lot of episodes lately, is this something they've been setting up?  Is he scheming?  Why, if Lucy can't be with Kevin, can't she and Scotty get together for real AND THEN THEIR DAUGHTERS COME TO TOWN?!?!

"In front of the judge" is the key difference here. Willow was carted off the jail because she refused to name her baby's father. That's contempt of court. Had she just lost her shit, an admonition from the judge for Diane to control her client—which happened—would probably have been it.

1) No idea whatsoever.

2) Of course not!

3) Maybe? It's Scott. But what happened to both Bobbie and Lucy telling Scott they're done with him for good? I'm all for an olds romance, but not with any of them. It's just a tired rehash, rather than using History! in an interesting way. Or even a tolerable way.

He wants a relationship/hates being alone. He told Franco it's not happening with Ava and it felt good when he was there for Bobbie when she fainted.

And maybe it'd be an okay story if they took the time to show their feelings rekindling, to show Scotty being there for Bobbie during this time and them growing closer.  But just having Scotty blurt out a proposal out of nowhere is so stupid.

Also?  Being with Bobbie means being in the Corinthii camp and I want better for my Scotty.  If he needs to be with one of his old love interests, have him be with Lucy because then you're at least setting up a different family unit.  AND THEN BRING THEIR DAUGHTERS TO TOWN!!

Avoid my commentary if you like Friz:

Shelly Altman: “belated wedding celebration was always the plan. We felt that Liz making the statement to marry Franco in jail was more important than having the wedding and reception all at once...we always were going to give them the huge reception they deserve”SA “belated wedding celebration was always the plan.

ew.

[TeeVee329]

Shut up, Shelly.

I assume this celebration is where Rebecca Budig will make her return?

Hey, remember when there was all that blah blah blah about Liz's family and how they suck compared to Franco and Franco swearing to round them all up for the wedding?

It appears so. Also on the guest list: Drew, Curtis, Stella, Kevin, Laura, Obrecht, Felix, Epiphany, Terry, Brad, Bobbie, Scott, Ava, Ava’s psychic, Jax, Julian, Kim, Nina, Valentin, Trina, and Elizabeth’s boys are all at the wedding party.
