On a totally superficial note,I have been meaning to mention how much really love Gabi's dress,red shoes,and red purse.I think CB really has a knack for choosing outfits that are very suitable for a young woman and flattering to her.
I also like the way JE is dressing as Bonnie.Her outfits have been flattering as well.

Some of her recent dresses have been nice, but I don't think those mid-drift bearing, skin-tight dresses she wore for months were suitable for a young working mother in the daytime nor did I think they were flattering.

I forgot one other thing that pissed me off. When Steve said that Kayla knows why he had to leave them in Africa. ENLIGHTEN US PLEASE. To keep them safe from WHAT?
There's a story they could have away from Ava and Tripp

I really didn't like the S & K scenes, and I think Steve comes off the worst. While he may have acknowledged Kayla's feelings (for about a second), he doesn't really want to give her any time to process them, he just wants her to move on and forget it- AGAIN. I think the story they could tell is how Kayla has kept "forgetting it" without them actually ever dealing with their issues. She got back together with Steve and let go of the abandoning/Africa thing after Bo died because life felt fleeting/uncertain. And again, she just put the Ava/Joe/Steve's need for adventure stuff aside after Orpheus because "life is too short". This was just two different sets of writers wanting to put them back together without taking the time to do the work. It makes sense to me that these issues would rear their heads again in this moment. It would be great if we could see them work through some of this stuff ON SCREEN.

I don't recall seeing Gabi at work wearing the midriff baring dresses.She was out and about meeting with others or on errands.I think quite a few young women with good figures often wear that type of clothing.You're only young once,I thought she looked good.

I don't think Steve, Kayla or Tripp are coming off as bad guys. The problem is the lack of fleshing out the story more so that the actions/reactions make more sense.

One of the very worst aspects of Dena Higley's writing was fitting sqaure pegs into round holes to accommodate her thin plots. She thought it was okay to have good people do outrageous things such as villains do and then have other characters act as if it was no big deal and therefore justified. Situational morals just don't fit in with heroes. In soaps, viewers want to respect the good guys and despise the bad ones. The writing should make it clear that the ones we root for have some semblance of morality. At least these things are necessary for me as a viewer. Short cuts just make the stories bad and boring.

For the record, I don't hate Gabi. I'm just a bit weary of the go to story for her-helpless damsel in distress. Who's wishing Mr. Mercedes would show up and just polish her off? CB is totally gorgeous and seems so sweet. Either rest her character or turn her into a totally new direction.

Rosebud: Could you tell me what that avi scene is? I can't stop watching it. lol.
Sorry, just saw this today.

It's a scene most refer to as "rapture" because that's the song that was playing on the jukebox. This was the day of the night where the Titan party was happening. The Titan party was the conference room scheme wherhe J&M Meade love on the conference room table band Sami saw them.

The rapture scene was great because neither one of them said a word. This happened during the affair story.

Thank you JCP.

Thanks for answering, the scene is captivating. I miss the long lingering looks between couples.
