Quoting limited to 3 levels deep
He didn't get in because he was dehydrated. The way he got in was actually how he got dehydrated. And saying you're not criticizing doesn't negate your criticism.
I wasn't criticizing. I was just saying: Those who were watching 30 years ago, this story has some resonnance (I mean, I keep seeing comments about how it reminds those viewers of the old days), but for me its completely lost so an ep like this one just sounds dull & a bit ridiculous (random pop ups like Anne, inconsistencies, etc. Orpheus kills himself: THE END meh.)

For example someone mentioned that Orpheus said he wanted Marlena to be the mother of his kids but then he called her a whore. That's BIG if you were watching back in the 80's. Means nothing to me.

So for those viewers it was a good ep. I'll pass thanx.

Wake me up when Abby & Will get back
I wasn't watching 30yrs ago... I don't think it's necessary to have watched it in the 80s for it to have resonance. And even then I wouldn't exactly say it was a "big" thing, lol. It is what it is. The way you described how the ep sounds could be said for many of the storylines. I hope there's one that you enjoy soon.

Justin is right. What's the rush for Adrienne and Lucas get married, really? I like them individual not as a couple.

I thought today's show was better than yesterday's. The problem though, for me, was that the Orpheus story coming to the end was bogged down by too many other stories or interactions. The Adrienne/Justin thing should have been on a different episode where it could have been more important, same with Lucas/Anne... if that whole thing is going to be something they're going to deal with next then don't stick it into an ep where Orpheus has his final showdown. It just made me want to get through it to get to the exciting stuff. Same thing with Chad and Gabi. They also could have saved Jennifer's bedside talk for tomorrow. And I don't know why they didn't time the Orpheus story better, like have him grab Marlena at the end of Friday's ep. You know, like a cliffhanger, remember those? Instead they wrapped the whole thing up in a few scenes on a Wednesday... unless Orpheus is shown to be alive at some time this week.

Let's start with the fact that Lucas is in the Dimera mansion babysitting Chad's son. Ok Chad was a friend of Will's but...
Lucas and Adrienne are Abby's aunt and uncle (from different sides). They're connected through her, not Chad.

The Orpheus stuff was awesome. I am glad they kept the botched history references with him out of it. They at least got the Marlena stuff right. The possession shoutout was awesome. Again, I felt urgency in the writing, especially in the scenes with Marlena. I don't mind what happened today with Orpheus if he isn't dead. If he is, than it sucks. If he isn't, than it's very Orpheus-like. When I first read about all this happening, I thought this was it. I no longer think so. Between the spoilers for next week and the weird cop that passed Steve and Marlena right before the Orpheus stuff went down, I think he is alive. The cop was likely his escape plan. Plus, wasn't their a strange doctor staring at Steve and Kayla yesterday and they also referenced the morgue not being monitored either. The setup is there. Orpheus is way too methodical and he seemed way too calm at the end. If he is still alive, I love this setup and I also have more faith in what is to come because they are writing him much better on his own and the story would easily be better with him on his own.
I hope so. Maybe the cop slipped that bottle into Marlena's doctor bag?

talbab1994, thank you. So that means Sonny is their biological son, correct?

I really need this show to stop having so many things happen at night or in dark rooms.

To be fair... even though I'm all about Justin and Adrienne... it's been at least a yr that they've been doing whatever they are doing. Granted, we didn't see them for most of their relationship, but allegedly it was all happening somewhere off-screen and it was magical.

I wonder if that's the scene Drake got injured? :blink:
I wondered that too when I read he burst through the door but I didn't see anything that made it seem like it when watching.
Maybe they didn't want to air the actual scene where he got injured.

ETA: For legal reasons... it could be evidence in a lawsuit.

Orpheus is the best villian on the show. I hope they keep him. He's better than Andre or Deimos.
There's an understatement.

Salem has the worst cops and none of them has a clue how to take of the fugitive. For example; one got shot without wearing bullet proof vest and fighting for his life and other one didn't attack Orpheus when he grabbed Marlena and pushed them both against the wall. :drunk:
I thought he might have been helping Orpheus.
The way he goaded Marlena into helping too

Somehow I just didn't buy Gabi's OTT declarations about how much she loves JJ.

Lots going on today. Thankfully Marlena still recalls her medical training from 30 plus years ago ... it saved JJ. I knew as soon as she went into the interrogation room with that young cop that Orpheus was going to get the drop on him. Orpheus should have had a more serious injury that a bullet graze to his arm because in actuality Marlena could have pulled a chair up beside him and stitched it without telling the cop to uncuff Orpheus. Such a dumb plot point. Really Orpheus overdoses on a sedative - that's his end? Kind of an ignoble end for such a worthy adversary. Unless Orpheus had time to bribe the coroner and that cop I'd have to say he's dead. Speaking of having money to pay bribes - what happens to that 20 million dollars John transferred to an untraceable offshore account. How does he get that money back to give back to all the people that pledged that money to pay Joey and Claire's ransom. I'm willing to bet good money that we'll never hear another word about that 20 million.

Anne & Lucas? Now there's a pairing that could be interesting. I'd love to see Anne taking on Kate and somehow I think Anne would come out on top ... or at least she'd be able to go toe to toe with Kate.

Really enjoyed the Justin and Adrienne scenes. I'm hoping that they find their way back to one another.

All the scenes about JJ's surgery and coma were good. I liked what Gabi said to him. I thought the dialogue between Justin, Adrienne and Jen was very good.

Kayla didn't say much to Adrienne but it seems like she's accepting Steve for who he is. I'm glad that whole chapter is behind them.

Steve and John worked very well together. I'm hoping that Steve goes back to being John's partner at Black Patch. I don't want to see how tending bar at Club TBD ever again.

Orpheus does give me Days late 80's early 90's vibes Days was so good until NBC came up with the soap opera on and then tried to sort turn Days into it..
