I am all for you making Rope's life hell Aiden, but is now really the time?
I'm all for Aiden getting blown away....not because I like Rope, I don't.

I just find Aiden nonredeemable
How is Aiden not redeemable? His crimes weren't the worst ever on the show. :shrug: :-/
Aiden is only not redeemable because the show doesn't want to redeem him & just keeps trashing the character more & more because they want to prop Rope.
Redeeming Aiden would be fairly easy, given all he's basically done is lie. (& the blackmail is only possible because Hope has something to hide & she wouldn't if she were being written correctly.)

Claire is pretty rich. And not just from her grandfather. But from her great-grandfather.
Shh! Let's keep Claire out of that void. ;)
Yes please!! I don't need her becoming CLAIRE KIRIAKIS, moving into the Kmansion, working at the Music Division at Titan, ignoring her other grandparents (John, Marlena & even Hope) and worshiping Victor and Maggie :rolleyes: . Please keep Claire out of the Kiriakis orbit.

But just getting back to the rich thing, had she remained a DiMera too (when John was Sateen's lost love child) she would've been a triple heiress; Alamain, Kiriakis and DiMera... and let's not forget the Horton trust fund Bonnie Lockhart was so hot for!!

I don't understand Rafe's love for Hope. Every time she's alone with Aiden, he gets angry. Leave Hiden alone. She doesn't need obsessed bodyguard watching every move she makes. :drunk:

Why not Rafe? YOU certainly are incompetent.
I wish Rafe knew that it was because of his incompetence that Aiden essentially figured out that Hope was guilty of Stefano's murder & was then able to get the proof he needed.

And let's just remind Rafe that it's his stupidity that lead Andre to find/uncover Stefano's dead body in the rubble. And Andre finding Stefano's body is what lead to Andre bugging Hope's house & then manipulating Chase thereby being able to put the bomb into his backpack.
Let's not forget that Rafe is responsible for global warming, the Syrian refugee crisis, ISIS and Donald Trump's performance in the debate. :P

It is so ironic that Aiden is being trashed to prop Rope, just like Bo had to be trashed and dismantled to prop the romance of Hope and Aiden. Irony!

Hope wants to leave and Aiden wants to talk to her. Rafe comes in tells him that she doesn't want anything to do with you. He's threaten Aiden if he's not backing off.
I hate that the show continues to have Rafe inserted whenever Hope's in scenes with Aiden. We never get to see Hope assert herself with Aiden & "win" the discussion with him because Rafe always shows up & acts like a smug & entitled ass who has to remind Aiden that he "won" Hope.
And every time Rafe "threatens" Aiden or gets in his face in any way, it's almost like Rafe is actually threatened by Aiden's presence in Salem. If he wasn't worried, there would be no need to go all neandrathol at every possible instance.
An obsessed neanderthal stalker and a helpless, mindless damsel in distress is Dena's idea of love conquers all. Rope is Dena's ultimate soap story.

:shrug: Except Rafe's stupidity actually WAS what prompted Andre to find Stefano, etc.

And sorry not sorry, but Bope wasn't trashed for Haiden, Bope was trashed for Rope, hence Bo giving Rafe his "blessing" :x - Haiden was a go-between that Higley had NO intention of keeping around once she was back in charge & her boy-toy needed another love interest. Pairing Rafe & Hope is disgusting, boring, and a vain effort to give his character something he doesn't have on his own - relevance. :coffee:

Am I the only one having difficulty hearing people talking in flashbacks? They sound like they're all talking through masks.

ETA: This isn't necessarily a complaint. The flashback is way too long and I hate Aiden.

Aiden plotted her murder, small detail that keeps getting forgotten.

Thank you JCP.

He was trying to kill Aiden instead of Abe after all.

The length of that flashback was ridiculous. But Abe snapping on Hope and Rafe was awesome.

The necklace has been pressed but John doesn't have any bars. How does an ISA agent NOT have Wi-Fi around him?
Power is probably coming back sporadically which would affect cell towers.

Also wasn't Clyde aiming at Aiden when Abe accidently stepped in front of him?

Love John's toys and faith in Claire. She's been bratty about the whole thing but when it mattered and he got in her face she listened and is trusting in John to bring her home. Smart girl. God knows Hope and Brady aren't going to be any help.

Absolutely not true, Tomsell wrote Bo as a deadbeat and a deserter of his family so Hope could move on to Aiden with no back lash. Look how badly Bo treated Hope. That is trashing Bo! How many times did Hope say Bo abandoned me. Tomsell could have easily killed Bo off after PR's exit but instead they destroyed the character to make the romance of Aiden and Hope more acceptable to viewers. Good grief, she divorced him via a letter due to the poor writing.

Put the shoe on the other foot. Imagine due to Drakes leave that the exit storyline is that he left Marlena to chase a Dimeara and doesn't return her calls, goes undercover and she starts moving on and complaining that he "abandoned" her. That is trashing a character with decades of history!.

Well I do have one complaint about this new head writing team - too darn many flashbacks of stuff that just happened recently. Oh well I guess we take the bad with the good.

Not a bad episode. I seriously can't handle Aiden anymore. Oh Abe why did you choose that exact moment to step out from behind the podium. Clyde was about to do us all a huge favour! The sooner Aiden is gone the better. I still don't want Hope and Rafe involved romantically, that will never change but I never want to see Aiden or hear his name mentioned ever again once he leaves. And to think if they just would have left Aiden the good guy they brought him in as I'd still be liking Hope and Aiden as a couple. Another strike against JG.

Other than Aiden and Rafe beating his chest I liked the rest of the episode. The suspense built ... Orpheus is always a pleasure to watch. Now he's a criminal mastermind that isn't a one note character or a cartoon. Too bad he's not sticking around for long. If I were Xander I'd be getting pretty darn tired of being treated like the muscle and nothing else. I have a feeling he's going to start pushing back against Clyde and Orpheus before too long. I liked the use of a newly created flashback to explain the significance of the necklace Claire was wearing. What I don't get is why was Theo the only one to go to Abe ... the rest where crouching down and pointing their guns at the hotel ... why wasn't the SWAT team immediately sent into the hotel to go after the shooter?

I've noticed it the day one she took over LB as Ciara Brady. The worst recast ever.
