I'm sorry to see Orpheus go. :(. The only villian that showed any promise of giving me my wish. Bummer! It was fun while it lasted. I hope somehow he can come back later on.

I bet KA was relieved to be in a scene with someone who is able to show emotion for a change.

Crap episode :blulaugh:

What world am I living in when that evil buffoon getting killed is a bad thing? :blulaugh:

Orpheus is so lame... More entertaining than the ridiculous mourning for that buffoon, but lame...

If Days brings that buffoon back again, this show should be canceled. Scratch that. If they bring that buffoon back again, NBC needs to be canceled! :blulaugh: :blulaugh:

Thank you JCP.

Thanks for posting the recaps everyone.

Are these the scenes that S.N. and Paul guy were filming that kept Stephen from being able to be at Deirdre's star ceremony?

S. and K. both had a chance to kill Stefano at separate times and didn't do it. Kayla couldn't do it because she is a doctor and a nurturing person. Steve used him to get Roman back from Andre after Andre killed Benji.

Except for that Abby and what's his name crap, Y&R was hitting it on all cylinders today! And I don't even watch that show much! lol

Now, that's what I call a cliffhanger! I'll be tuning in tomorrow!

I like how calm Chad was with Hope. He wasn't yelling or laying into her and I think it helps the audience sympathize with Chad. Very good scenes.

Quoting limited to 3 levels deep
Really? Hope just confessed to a murder. She's either going on trial or going to have to deal with the DA. Talking to somebody who can be used as a witness against her is exactly what her LAWYER would be upset about. It has nothing to do with Hope being a big girl or Chad not being a killer. It has everything to do with somebody being smart about trying to protect Hope's legal rights. And Chad actually has no "right" to go in and talk to her. In any real police department, it would absolutely not be permitted.
:applause: Great point esp. As someone who worked at law firms, I find this whole Chad confrontational illegal on so many levels. That's what a trial is for and if Hope was convicted, he'd have every right to do a victim impact statement at that time. I realize this is a soap but what you pointed out was nothing short of being correct and spot on.
I've never worked in a law firm but if she has confessed why do they need a trial?

Thank you JCP.

Laslo must be the bad guy who

has kids and a soft spot.

I don't want O. gone for good, but George might have only agreed to a one time return.

It is going to stick in Steve's crawl to thank Andre for his help. lol.

They probably don't. But lots of cases go to trial even after a confession. And even if they don't go to trial on guilt, there is still a sentencing hearing.

Hope's confession can be thrown out if it's determined she wasn't read her Miranda rights firsts before confessing. I didn't work in a judicial system only for many law librarians in numerous law firms for more than 2 decades, a defendant can also change their mind about a confession and a case can still go to trial, it can go a number of different ways.

I loved it when Chad said to Hope, did that give you right to play god in my father's life? Well she deserves to be punished just like her two moron sidekick cops Rafe and Roman.

Watching live today, I think the Hope & Chad scenes as well as the exchange between Chad and Rafe were well done. They all had good points, but in some places they were wrong.

I liked that Chad and Hope talked about what happened without any over the top yelling or shouting. Chad's right that she didn't have a right to play God and that she should have been above that. I'm not sure about his line about being glad to be marrying into Horton family so that Thomas could have one good family to be apart of. Hope's actions in this case do not taint the rest of the family. Hope made a huge mistake and no family is perfect anyways. He also invoked his wedding to Abby that Hope wasn't even at and today was the first time I have heard Chad refer to Hope as a family member. I did believe Hope when she said she was sorry to Chad, and on some level I think he gets it, but is understandably upset at her and Rafe.

I was thinking yesterday that the Abby and Ben scenario might be brought up in defense of Hope. It's an interesting comparison, but where it falls short for me is that we saw Abby slowly lose her mind for weeks before she lit Ben on fire (who didn't die). She was seeing Ben when he wasn't there. We saw Hope not being herself and sort of acting like she was completely out of it. But was she completely out of her mind? It wasn't depicted as strongly as the Abby stuff was and she never sought out professional help. Stefano was also a man reduced to a wheelchair, while Ben was still actively terrorizing Abby. I do think Hope snapped, but her participating in the cover-up afterwards will weaken that argument. Abby didn't do that. In her psychotic state, she kept on saying how she wished she had killed Ben.

I do agree with Rafe that I don't think Chad quite understands the magnitude of what Stefano has done in the past. I'm not sure why Chad tried to claim Stefano changed, when he knows that just prior to Stefano's death, he was involved in trying to have Hope killed. Hopefully that was just Chad's emotion talking, because it didn't make sense. Otherwise, I think Chad handled himself pretty well today.

While that's all well and good, Stefano was not guilty of the crime Hope accused him of.

I know that. He is guilty of making her life hell before and he is no way a good person nor was he trying to change. She thought he was guilty when she killed him. I already said Hope had no excuse for killing him like that and her cover-up was even worse. I think you missed the larger point of my post which was to say none of Chad, Hope, or Rafe were completely right today. It's not black and white.

I think it comes down to the fact that Hope took someone's life. Regardless if that person was good or evil, she took a life. Imo, Stefano and his actions towards Hope and the Brady's and the rest of Salem like you said does not give her a right to kill someone. She should be charged and serve time...but it's a soap, so she wont. It's not feasible to keep a soap heroine locked up.
