Is there any hope of bringing Tucker (the actor) back?

I haven't heard one way or the other, but probably not.  That guy can act, and it wouldn't be fair to put him up against so many of the current cast.

Maybe not so dead Ian took her and figured fewer people would be worried about her than they were about a missing Sharon.

What a maroon!  Guess now that Ian is mostly dead Chance has some time on his hands.  Doesn't someone have to be gone at least 24 hours before they are officially 'missing'? The kids haven't even broken into her room to see if she is just on her computer, obsessing over her new and wonderful ideas for Abbott Communications. Must be nice to use the GCPD as your own personal detective agency.  Ah, privilege....

[Kemper]

We just sat through what seemed like years of the Sharon saga.  Now the focus is on The Winters Family. Other than Lily, perhaps the dullest family in soaps. With mostly underwhelming new players added.  Phyllis returning as a "player" and having an irritating gnat as a daughter.  But worst of all? Victor. The writers are insulting viewers and the character. I would say also to the actor; but I don't think it is. I don't know about anyone else, but I truly need some escapism via a soap. Escapism should make us look forward to watching everyday; and fun.  

Then there are the cheap, tacky sets, hairstyles and fashion for the women. We should not be having to poke fun at Melody Thomas Scott; but here we are. Sally most of the time looking hooker-ish. Phyllis is beyond redemption. If she was a better actress, she might be able to carry it off. Maybe someone could glue her arms/hands to her sides. Baby steps. 

****Sorry - should have put this in the other thread *** I will try and contact the mods.***

Nate giving Audra the Amy and Damien updates. He thanks her too for pushing Holden. She tells him Damien met a woman who propelled him into staying, Nate thinks it's Lily.

They went on few dates, not serious, she got into a situation thanks to Tucker and he got her out if it.  Meeting with bad men and Holden was there to save her. Nate still doesn't know why she didn't say truth. If something else hiding. She talks her way out of the covering it up and he's sorry for what happened in LA but wishes she told him truth from start but past is past. He asks if that's it, she agrees, they hug  and her face doesn't look like that is it.

She also having memories.  They go back and forth on favorite happy memories thinking about good times. He doesn't want to push but has she changed her mind about being an us, she has but it would be bad but she had other voice they say maybe not.  Adam good with that, she would need it slow and careful.

Now THAT wins the day; actually it wins the year....so far. It is unbelievable if Ian W (or another long-dead lunatic...or how about Paul?) kidnapped them. And the writers are extending one of the worst storylines ever. 

[CatLady]

I thought Ray Wise said his role had wrapped up.  I suppose it wouldn't be the first time an actor fudged on the facts to protect a surprise.

The break from Phyllis has been nice, but I have had to suffer through this horrible Nate/Amy/BitterNasty now horny Damien story.  UGH!!!  Just when we thought maybe Audra was reformed a bit, she is lying again.  Way to sabotage something you seemed to value. And Lily, please don't fall for this shady loser.

Summer.  Good Lord, what a selfish, nasty, entitled little jerk she is.  Now she is sniffing around Mr. Pompadour again and acting obsessed while using her NotKid as an excuse. How pathetic is she?

Where is the romance, the fun on this show?  Watching should not be so irksome and unsatisfying.

Speculation being that Ian Ward has something to do with this makes no sense.* Actually, Ian Ward being alive makes no sense.  Kyle has established the Timewarpline for us by acknowledging that 'Valentine's day is past' so we are now in late Feb or possibly early March.  That would mean Ian has been alive and well for almost a month.  It also means that no one has noticed he's missing or informed people to whom he poses a threat, in all that time.  Is he another vampire, living in the morgue drawer and coming out at night to terrorize the reigning cougars of GC?  What possible motivation does he have for kidnapping these two?  I would be happy if he staged their demise to be a Suicide Pact or even made it look as if they killed each other fighting.  Anything but the mustache twirling villainy that the writers seem to love.

* I know, I know.  Expecting Sense comes under the "really, Molly?" heading

Didn't he find Phyllis wandering in the woods where he was living in an RV the last time he was on the show? They seemed to have rapport.

[Artsda]

All Sharon and Phyllis locked in room. 

Alarm sounds and Sharon's awake. She's in glitter clothes again,  probably should stay away from the sparkles, unless she wants to be kidnapped. 

Sharon head hurting, asking if she's drugged. She's screaming at whoever asking who are they, finds a door trying to escape, offering kidnapper money. They can have anything. 

Talks more to secret person. Wanting way out. She runs to window, sees Phyllis on floor and tries to wake her up. 

Phyllis asks Sharon what she did to her. Sharon should have left her. Sharon says she's here and normal self. Goes ok about how she got rid of Heather and want to get rid of her. Sharon turns it around saying maybe it's her revenge? 

Phyllis says how do they get out, Sharon shows her the door and says be her guest. Phyllis trying to open door getting nowhere.  They go back and forth until Sharon asks if she gets it now, they didn't do this. Alarms sounds again. 

Phyllis said she thought Ian and Jordan died did they? Sharon says yes. Phyllis doesn't understand why she's apart of it, let her go and keep her. 

Sharon need to figure out why they are there, who did it and why them together. Phyllis thinks they want to watch them kill each other. She tries to pick the lock and jams in.  Sharon realizes they're in psychiatric clinic. Phyllis cracks if it's one she was at, Sharon point out Phyllis just goes after others. 

They try to remember how long they are here. They both had strange dreams last thing. Kids would start panicking. 

They start searching everywhere for phones. They go back and forth cracks.  Sharon not wrong Phyllis should get psychiatric help. 

Sharon finds food and can opener. Phyllis goes to drink the water, Sharon stops her saying that is where the PCP was last time. 

Phyllis asking if she was calm before in sewer. They talk about Ian. Ian wanting her dead for Mariah. Phyllis goes on about Sharon to blame again for helping cover up Heather dead. How Daniel and Lucy went through hell.  Blames her for attacking her family.  Phyllis can shut up anytime, she refuses to understand the drugging. Sharon tries to explain she was self drugging her everyday thinking she was being responsible for her illness.  Sharon tells her she just sees her as a target. All she does is take it out on her. 

Sharon calls her out on not having PCP in system when she faked her death and hurt her children, how the spite was more than her children.  Phyllis says they forgave her. Sharon calls her the poison, asks if she wants to continue attacking or try and get out of here. Phyllis agrees. 

Alarm sounding and song plays. Phyllis screaming at the sound calling them a freak. Sharon wants to listen and understand if music is a sign. 

Sharon thinks they pick the music on purpose it's part of game. Phyllis goes even more berserk banging on door. Sharon calmly figure out it's a game. 

How to play, the voice comes on and says it's a game to stay alive.

I don't think you have to worry about an insider/leak if you name your company Abbott Communications and then parade all over town announcing it.  Jack should be worrying about the actual insider/leakers in his own company.
