Thanks for clearing that up.
I do think something happens while they're coming back from Memphis (or while they're in Memphis), but I don't think the person is missing.

Does it have anything to do with "Heartbreak Hotel"?

No lol. I think that’s when the Theo stuff is.

Still would rather have Jennifer with Jack! Eric/Jen are long past over, so good they are still great friends.

I like Jeneric and I don't like Jeneric. I just don't know why...
I feel the same. I think they are cute together, but I think they would bore me long term. I think Eric needs someone that isn't a goody-goody. I just don't see there being a lot of compelling stories for them together.

I would prefer someone a little younger too.
You've summarized exactly how I feel about them. I could never quite put my finger on why I didn't like the pairing (well, other than I'm an Ericole fan). I really like them as friends and think they have a sweet, caring relationship. That just doesn't translate to romantic or sexual chemistry for me though.

Quoting limited to 3 levels deep
Isn't there a spoiler out there somewhere that said something about a beloved one goes missing when the group is on their way back?
Sonny ends up in the hospital in Memphis, or was that someone else? It was on a script awhile back.
It would be pretty soapy if Sonny was in the hospital and ended up with amnesia right as Will is discovered

Jen and Eric are fine as friends but I don't see anything romantic about them at all. They make Jen seem so desperate for just a bit of attention from him. Jen needs a man who loves and wants her. Not someone who clearly wants to be with someone else. Also Eric and Jen are in different places in life. Eric deserves to have kids of his own, and raise them. Jens already done that. Jen should have a man whose already had kids, and is at the same point in life as she is. Sending Eric from one triangle story right into another is crappy too, especially sense the majority would want jen and jack, more heartbreak for Eric. They should recast Nicole and get Jen a man that wants to make her number one. I see jen as more of a mentor to Eric, but in the romance nope. They would be too boring. They both deserve to be with someone who adds spice to their life.

You know, I've never understood the concept of someone "deserving" to have kids. Having biological children isn't the only way for someone to be part of a family, which is why I think it would be interesting for Eric to be paired with someone who already has grown children and a young grandson. And I definitely missed the part about Jennifer being desperate. Eric was just as into her as she was him when he came back earlier this year, and it was actually her discovery of his letters to Nicole that led to HER choice not to pursue things with him because she wanted him to sort his feelings out. I'm just not sure what part of that situation makes her desperate.

I know having biological kids isnt the only way to be a family. But I want to see Eric experience the joy of becoming a dad, having his own kid(s) Greg would knock that out of the park the way he shows emotion. Her desperation comes from her being more into him then him into her. And if she shows up at his door a day after nicole leaves that help prove my point.

What is all this stuff about Eric needing to be a dad. I agree, he would be amazing...but no one seemed to be concerned about it when he was with Nicole. Last time I checked, Nicole couldn't have children.

Eric hasn't really expressed a desire to have kids. At one point he was committed to a life as a priest and ok with knowing he would never have his own child because of his vows.
But, their are ways that the show could give Eric a child if the want, he could learn he and Serena had a hidden child, that somehow he and Kristen conceived a child when she drugged him, we could learn Holly is his down the road or there could be a miracle baby with Nicole that appears 9months from now. But I am not sure what having a kid really means to a pairing anymore. Ari is the child of Lucas & Gabi who are not together, Parker & Holly are Daniels's kids and he is dead and with neither mother, Tate's mother left him. None of Sami's kids are with their dads right now and she isn't with either of their dads. Babies are used for storyline archs and then hidden off camera for most of the time. Thomas is an exception right now.

I thought he should be able to have kids of his own when he was with Nicole, and she can have them its just highly unlikely for her carry to term. Now that she is gone i think he deserves to be with someone who can have kids, perhaps chloe. It would be a good story line. just because most of the kids on screen are not with their dads doesnt mean anything. I think it would be good for eric to find someone fall in love and have kids.

Jennifer cares about Eric, she probably loves him on some level. Eric leaving Salem because he couldn't be around Nicole & Brady was equally desperate, but I didn't see it like that.
The heart wants what the heart wants. What was the one obstacle that was preventing Eric & Jennifer from going forward with their relationship? Nicole .... If she is gone and he is lead to believe that she doesn't want him than he has a right to move forward, perhaps even appreciate Jennifer in a new way. But I think her showing up is going to be more about her concern for him & his sobreity.

Eric probably already has a kid out there. He was gone from the show for 12 years. Maybe Serena gave the baby to adoption. Or another ex-girlfriend kept the baby and raised him or her on her own.

Even if that were true it still isnt getting to see eric have kids of his own. Or get to experience becoming a dad.

I think we all expected that Eric's sperm would be just that little bit more special than EJ's and the baby would actually last the distance....

I second the I'd like to see Eric be a dad - and the old fashioned way where he is there for the birth not it just arrives from the ether.
