Yep, and I was hoping against hope that RC would be different and finally a writer would let her react instead of going around saying she's fine. |

I wonder if he cares at all about Justin, making Justin out to be so naive about Adrienne not acting like herself, even though everyone else sees the changes in her and the fact that Ron has not given Justin much to do in this story. |

Have you seen Wally's explanation for this? I thought his explanation was really good. I definitely think it's getting problematic, but I think they're playing it that Justin just so wants it to be true that he's not questioning it. |

Too much stuff happened on Monday and the middle of the week has been pretty uneventful. Ron loves writing for Bonnie, Hattie, Sheila and he's doing it well. It's refreshing but I would like him to start focusing on the people who actually matter now... I'm still confliced about Eric/Nicole/Brady, I have wanted his story in the past but it's really bittersweet with Nicole on her way out. |

No, I haven't seen Wally's explanation for this. If it is in a magazine, I don't buy them. I would love to know what his explanation was especially where you say it was really good. I can understand what Ron's explanation is that Justin just so wants it to be true, that's why he is not questioning it, but I was hoping there was more to it than that. I, loving this couple as I do, feel let down with this explanation having Justin not questioning it. |

It was in SOD, but I can't remember what issue. It's either the one that was released today or the previous one. |

I actually don't think Justin looks naive or stupid. It's not the same as with John. Hattie as Marlena broke up with John and was very obviously not Marlena to him or others. All Justin and others know is "Adrienne" broke up with Lucas and went back to Justin. Not exactly OOC behavior from her. She's been waffling between them for a long time. The only thing in the whole story is that the only person that seems to remember who Bonnie is or was back in Salem years ago, is Bonnie herself. You'd think Maggie would have a passing thought like, "Gee, Adrienne is reminding me of Bonnie." Edited by Rosebud, Sep 15 2017, 11:19 AM.

Why would he question it? Adrienne not too long ago stopped her wedding to Lucas because of Justin. I don't see why he'd question her doing it again. |

That's actually the biggest hole for me. People ARE noticing that Adrienne is acting weird. Almost every interaction she's had with anyone -- Maggie, Victor, Brady, Nicole -- has made a point of how strange she's acting. And no, Justin isn't gong, "Wait, this isn't Adrienne," but it's not like he hasn't noticed something is up. He's just buying her excuses because he wants to. And others are blaming it on her cancer treatment, etc. They're justifying things they are observing in ways that make sense. I wouldn't have expected anyone to leap to "Oh, it must be a doppelgänger who took over Adrienne's life!" But now that the Hattie news is out, it's going to be odd if someone doesn't start questioning this in a more specific way. Maggie knew Bonnie. Brady was very aware of Bonnie. Chloe wasn't actually around for a ton of Bonnie's heyday, but she'd in theory know her as Mimi's mom. I hope they start playing those beats ASAP, or the holes are going to be too difficult to ignore. |

It bugged me when Adrienne sent Sheila to Justin instead of Lucas. I didn't understand it but now I realize it was a stupid plot point for Bonnie to discover Sheila. I hate this story line so much. |

Yep. Another stupid plot point like constantly putting her in solitary. Adrienne should be stripping down to nothing showing those scars. Or saying she's sick and needs to go to the infirmary. This is not good story telling. This is having an idea and doing anything to make it work even if it makes no sense. |
