Gabi and Chad stripping down like this so soon is completely absurd. And zero hesitation either. It's weird and silly.
It really was. Yesterday they were at least showing a little of that awkward sexual tension, but that was absent today when they were practically naked... Huh?

So according Orpheus, Steve is the reason John and Marlena got away and got to live their lives while he spent 30 years in prison. First of all, I think John, Marlena and their children would disagree with that considering Marlena lost four years with them. And second of all, are we supposed to buy that Orpheus went straight to jail after John shot him and he was presumed dead? I didn't think that's how it was explained last week. The writing has been pretty consistent since the change. I really hope this isn't a sign of inconsistency returning.
Yea, all that was confusing and didn't make a lot of sense. Steve and Kayla had nothing to do with J&M ending up together, not even close.

And why isn't Orpheus going after Hope too since Bo and Hope were involved in Stockholm? Has he asked where Bo is?

I'm gonna need to know why Orpheus was in jail straight from being dead. Did he kill someone? Why wouldn't he go find RoJohn and kill him?

J&M and Family Fanatic!

Chad and Gabi was just stupid. And besides seeing Lucas, Theo was by far the best part of the episode. Can we axe the other teens and start over with Theo/Allie/J.T./Joy?

Thank you JCP.

O. knows he shot John, and they are hiding out, maybe he doesn't know what condition John is in after the shooting.

I think the reason they aren't using Hope too much with O. is Bo being gone. On the other hand, didn't O. leave Bo alone because of Victor? Hope definitely was involved in helping rescue Marlena the first time.

I think they could use S/K in small way with O. is because they got fbs they can use with original actors. The scenes are more about O. than them just like with Ava.

Orpheus is dangerously insane, I think he jumps from what actually happened to what he thinks happened.

Quoting limited to 3 levels deep
so go around to the french doors
The french doors aren't in that room, though. I was thinking the same thing about the door in the back. Both of those are in the living room, and they were in the study. They'd have had to go through the tunnels.
I wish they had went through the tunnels, no telling who or what they might have found in there!

Ugh, Rafe is such a jerk.
Disagree....I do realize there are a few very vocal members here who constantly make disparaging remarks about the character, but that is not the feelings of others, many others.
Rafe is a good guy, who has put both his career and life on the line for those he cares about. And has done it many times. Bo did the same in the past. Was quite the contrast to brother "by the book" Roman.

So, writers have tried to pair him with Hope. Big deal. Do I think they have chemistry...No. do I like the pairing? No I don't. But I appreciate the character, like him, and blame writers, not charachter.
Today, IMO, he acted like a jerk. I can't really speak for the many others who watched today and didn't think he was a jerk. To each their own.
I like Rafe.I hope he stays with the show.I don't mind him with Hope but I would like him much better with Nicole.That being said,he was written like a macho ass today. thought it was stupid to have Hope bandaging Aiden's hand and to have Rafe come in and begin behaving in such an aggressively overprotective manner.Also didn't like the way he put his hand on Hope's back when he appeared to notice Aiden looking in their direction.Was Rafe written like that in the Rafe/Sami/EJ era? I don't remember disliking him in those days as much as I disliked his behavior today.

I totally agree his version of what happened will never add up because he's a sociopath. All he really cares is his wife is dead and somehow John and Marlena still ended up happy

I rolled my eyes at Chad and Gabi taking off their clothes.It reminded me of the Rafe/Carrie scene without the music,thank God ,and they were in the room less than an hour.Chad taking off his pants was ridiculous.
Given that Gabi has been in professional modeling for years,I don't think its strange that she would think nothing of stripping down to her bra to keep cool.
Gabi looked great.Chad looked paunchy.

Maybe his aggressive behavior was due to his dream in the tunnels where he thought he didn't do enough to protect Hope from Aiden. Here he comes across Aiden hurt and possibly playing on Hope's sympathy and it got his back up. Rafe's headstrong and passionate so I didn't find his behavior offensive. I'm glad he's not a whimpy character. I actually find him sexy when he's angry. He's a hot man.

I had issues with this episode. Way too many flashbacks. It bogged it down. I hated that they cut Steve being shot. It should have been the huge climax and instead it had me rewinding to see if I missed what happened! They totally screwed it up! WTH This should have been the most important story in the episode!

Yes it was stupid for Gabi and Chad to shed clothes, but it was also fun. And damnit, I need fun on my soap! I loved how natural Gabi and Chad come off. It felt like watching two friends stuck in a spot.

I already commented on how aggravating it was having a Hope play Nightingale to Aiden after she was spitting nails at him the last time they were together. That was a horrible setup. Pick a direction and keep to it.

Why would Lucas seem surprised Gabi was still in the mansion when he's sitting with Ari? That was absurd.

JJ saying you can't trust Claire was a highlight.

The weak ending made the episode disappointing.

I'd like John, Marlena, and Hope to band together to take down Claire's youtube channel.
They would need to remember that Hope is Claire's grandmother first.

I really like Rafe but there was something about his behavior in the pub that rubbed me the wrong way.Gave off a "my property" vibe to me.Hope already made it clear that she has chosen him and that she despises and distrusts Aiden and he has made it clear that he despises and distrusts Aiden so his behavior was overkill.Might have been more acceptable if the writing shown him to be insecure about Hope's feelings for him and attributed his attitude to his past experiences with Sami and EJ as well as Hope seeming to give Aiden a second chance when Aiden returned to Salem.

Yeah,I thought it was weird that Lucas would think Gabi left without Arianna.
I also thought it was weird that Steve would make a move while Kayla and Joey were tied up with all three of the villains there and likely armed.
The show has been so horrible,it would take a lot more issues for me to find it disappointing.I may eyeroll certain characters/writing but on the whole I am so much happier with the show.

Gabi and Chad randomly taking clothes off was so absurd. Three minutes in they start stripping down. If they had been in there for another 5 minutes would they have removed their undies? Stupid. Those scenes would have been so much better if they had clothes on.

Theo was very good. Nice job.

Stayla, finally some kind of story.

Claire. I'm so glad they have shifted the limelight off Ciara. It wasn't working VJ and this is much better.

Watching Chad and Gabi trying to pull off an "Ericole in the furnace" moment totally fell flat for me today! It was foolish, contrived, and I sensed no real urgency that they were fearful for their lives and would never make it out! Also, the scenes were so sliced together I saw Chad completely dressed..after commercial break with half his shirt unbuttoned...come back from another break and water bottles were dripped all over their bodies and he was in his underwear! (Not that I'm complaining about that) But GMAFB! 😒 And then NOTHING happened!?? It was just...bland! Then again, everything about Gabi and JJ is just that...bland! I don't care if they break up. The show had failed to give this couple any depth. I think that Chabi talk was the first in-depth conversation Gabi has had since she came back last year. I liked Gabi during the Nick storyline, but this year...zzzzzz!

Today made me really appreciate what Ericole had and did in the Furnace...after all, I still think Nicole carried some brain damage from that night!

Thank you JCP.

Steve had to make a move. Clyde and Xander both wanted to kill them and leave. Steve was the only one not tied up, bad mistake by O. unless his secret plan all along was to grab Joey. He talked a lot about Joey to Steve.

Really? LOL. It would have to be mighty hot (maybe 120+ degrees) for me to do the same thing with a man present. I don't see what the modeling has to do with it.

Lucas and Adrienne trying to get to Theo and the babies
Can't they just knock on the den door and call to Theo, the den must be a soundproof panic room too. :blulaugh:
They did, but Theo is scared and holding his hands over his ears. I kept hoping Arianna would run to the door and Theo would follow. But she was looking at a book or something.
