They really shouldn't do stories like this when they basically have no budget. It's just annoying and silly. The sets are so small and the characters just end up looking ridiculous. |

Agreed. And if they insist on still doing them, they should spend a lot more time on the emotional beats than what they're doing. They should do that anyway, though. |

LOL, now we are blaming Roman for some sort of cowardice? Let John take the risks? If the writers had wanted Roman there, he'd be there. They don't want him involved, as is abundantly clear. John would have been called, not emailed. We don't want Roman and orpheus to share a scene together where they discuss their actual history. |

The writers did want Roman there at first. Orpheus told him to come. He didn't go. We have no idea why. John wasn't the one emailed. Roman was. Orpheus told Roman to come and bring John. Edited by Lovejm, Oct 7 2016, 05:19 PM.

To me, the way they plot the fight scenes is very shaky. The way Clyde got away today was just ridiculous. The budget is the budget. If they can't afford better sets, what can they do? But they can choreograph the fight scnes better. Or maybe I should say more believably. |

? At this point, that's what they've set up. It may have been unintentional, but it's still what they set up. Orpheus asked Roman for both, and Roman told everyone John. Roman sent a rookie cop and a civilian to handle Clyde and Joey. These are things the writers put in there. Maybe they didn't intend them to come across that way, but for me they did. I'm hoping that that leads to something, but I'm doubtful that it will. I'm not sure why you're saying he's not involved. He was involved. I get that he's not doing what you want, but he was involved. |

I didn't notice background people today which is unusual for me. Was Sonny there the whole time? Did we see Theo leave Ciara? |

There is the fundamental difference. You are somehow blaming the characters for these decisions. What happened between what orpheus said in the email and John going alone? I see inconsitency in the writing, nothing suspicious on Roman's part. Orpheus emailed instead of calling because the writers wanted him to. There has been no Orpheus Roman because that is what the writers want. I understand that any character is only what writers have them do. The writers made hope shoot Stefano. But I feel much more comfortable judging her for that than ascribing some cowardly intent to Roman that I think was much more likely nconsistent writing. |

You said earlier John was the one called. Roman was the one contacted about this and asked to come. He didn't go. That's the facts |

Sonny wasn't there the whole time but he was there before Steve and Kayla left the pub to get Joey. We saw Theo sneak out of the pub too, I don't think Ciara noticed. |

I don't know what to tell you. That is your interpretation, it is not mine. It didn't cross my mind, wait a second, why didn't he go with John/'. What possible reason would there be for that other than cowardice. I'm back to betting ranches. 've got another o ne that says there is zero followup to that. There will be no followup to why Orpheus' message wasn't delivered as Orpheus had expressed it to Clyde. Roman is involved, but not directly. There has been zero interaction between him and the criminals. Same with Hope and Rafe. That is why he sent a rookie cop. Becuase more experienced cops were not in today's show. |

I don't mean yesterday in particular. I mean the entire stor. When Orpheus contacts John. he calls him. He emailed Roman. Again, the writers. I'm not blaming Orpheus. That's enough for me for today. |

You don't have to keep betting ranches. We're just talking about the episode and what happened. I already said multiple times I didn't think they'd go anywhere with it. But you'll have to excuse me for not understanding why it's so ridiculous of us to think there's a connection or want there to be a connection...especially since it's literally what happened. It's not my interpretation that Orpheus asked for both of them and only one of them went. That's literally what happened. It very clearly says in my post that they may not have intended it to play that way. |

Thank you JCP.

I think Kayla and Steve were at the right place. They were waiting for John, who was risking his life, to try to trick Orpheus during the money transfer long enough to reveal his wireless connection with his partners. This was to give Paul time to zero in on the GPS location of Orpheus partners and hopefully where Joey was being held hostage. Actually, I think Theo showing up saved Joey. Clyde felt bad about shooting Abe and there was no way he was going to shoot Theo. I think John, Marlena, Kayla, and Steve figured out they would kill Joey after they got the money, so they had to find him. I wonder where Xander was during that scene on the docks. |

Look how Victor treats his son, Philip. He's not much of a father figure to anyone but Brady. Victor ONLY looks out for Victor. |
