Good episode. I also liked how Hope was interacting without Rafe at the hip. In fact he wasn't even in the episode. She was more like she should be - checking in on the kids, going by to see Kayla who is her sister in law after all but still in cop mode. This was more like the Hope we should be seeing. With Aiden discovering that she killed Stefano and that coming out, hopefully this will do some damage control to her character.

I don't mind Rope so much just not at the expense of having Hope out of character and ignoring her family.

So far the writers seem poised to fix that.

Good show today especially when it goes to familial relationships. How nice to see family interacting with family again. Julie, Ciara, Jen, Claire, Joey and JJ. Hope and Kayla. And it was so great to see Theo and Chad. Those two were always so close ... it was strange that they were never seen together.

Oh goodness, Claire is just a teeny tiny bit obsessed with Social Media and what she believes it can do for her career wise. I liked that Ciara tried to tell her in a nice way that the music business is a hard business to break into and making it to the top is a rarity.

Julie is sure against JJ dating Gabi. That was a beat that never played before ... now with a change in writing, it's coming in to play. Julie is never going to forget what Gabi did to Nick ... however just once I'd like to acknowledge that Nick did wrong by Gabi as well.

I really liked the last segment of the show ... very well done. The only thing I can't figure out is why did it appear that Claire was the only person in the square.

And yes I agree, it's ridiculous that Ari is still being pushed around in a stroller. It's also ridiculous that Thomas is always lying in a bassinette. or baby carrier ... seriously, he's not an infant any longer.

It was sweet seeing Lucas with Ari and then Adrienne with her and Theo was so good with little Ari as well. Very cute.

Nice seeing Lucas and Adrienne again. And Jen and Julie trying to entertain Ciara and Claire with Charades and Jigsaw Puzzles - LOL!

Oh. Ari did walk around some today. Actually she ran right out of the room.
I have to re-watch the episode.I didn't see her feet touch the floor.Its ridiculous that Gabi is pushing a baby stroller around given Arianna's size.They really should ditch the baby stroller.
It was quick. The scene picked up with her running out the door.

Why are Chad and Gabi scenes bad if they are played as just friends being supportive?

Because they are not playing it as friends..their looks and hugs indicate otherwise.

The Gabi stuff is stupid, there is no way Chad, a Dimera, needs advice on how to dress.
Chad is fine whatever he's wearing and it fits him just fine. He doesn't look slobby like Dario or should I say dead dirty tan. Wasting his time with Gabi and tells him how to dress up it's beyond dumb and stupid.

I never believed when Abby showed up again Chad was just going to be a widow father taking care of his son I always thought there would be indication of him getting close to someone else just to add a conflict. Viewers may hate it but it's soapy, doesn't mean Chad would have fallen for someone else but I knew writers was going to throw third party in the mix it's soap 101.

I agree 100%. It's common ground when it comes to soaps. Character A & B are in love. Character B "dies." Character A moves on with Character C, and they get serious (even if it's sometimes at warped speed), just as Character B returns from the dead. Personally, I love soapy cliche stories like this and would much rather watch it over these soaps trying to veer off the course and try something "new." Stick with what you know, please. I'm hoping H&Q have that same thought.

One thing to add. While I don't mind Character A moving on with Character C, for the story to work successfully, there needs to always be reference to Character A's love for Character B and how Character C won't ever fully match up. When Character A completely forgets Character B for Character C, you failed.

It's silly that Chad is Gabi's boss and she tells him how to dress up as a business man. Lol It's not Chad's fault. It's wardrobe department should blame for that not knowing how to pick the right dress for actors.

I'm not rooting for Chad and Gabi to get romantic anytime soon but I'm waiting to see everything play out to see how BF/CB/MM interact together once Abby is back onscreen, unlike some others I don't have a total negative attitude about Chad/Gabi's history because for one thing I didn't see it all play out with the other actor in the role. I'm willing to wait and see what happens because I don't hate any characters involved

I agree, but that can be derail if character B is a recast and Character A & B's dynamic changes and not for the better. Viewers can become less invested.

Agreed again. Another thing that really sucks about DAYS' taping schedule. If Marci and Billy have no chemistry, we might have to sit through months of something that just isn't there.

The boy saw the comet and he felt as though his life had meaning.

We have Ciara acting like the mature one and Claire acting like a twit!! I don't like it. I want a more sensible and likable Claire.

Is it 100% certain that Orpheus kidnaps her?
