Why the hell would Alice hid that?Then again why would she hide half the things she apparently had.I wanna choke the writers right now.

Well maybe at some point we'll get another JM wedding out of this and please no hospital beds.

She didn't hide it. Stefano did. Although that still raises the same questions.

I would be incredibly disappointed if EJ was John and Hope's son. He's the perfect heir to Stephano and he fits so well as a Dimera.

I've been waiting for something like this since I started watching this show again at the relaunch...some type of adventure storyline.
I don't think this will lead to an adventure story. I think John and Hope will fly to Alamainia, spend a few weeks parading around a single 4x4 set with cardboard walls, hit a snag, end up in danger and then fly back to Salem happily divorced. It might be interesting if it's executed properly and MarDar learn how to write suspense and drama, but the odds of that happening are slim to none. This will fall flat just like everything else on the show.

I like the idea of EJ being John and Hope's son. The fall out affects so many people and turns several lives upside down. Mostly EJ's. I would like to see JS actually do some acting again. I want to see some fall out, some repercussions the story behind the story. Come on writers make this show interesting!

This is possibly the stupidest shit I have ever heard. I found it easier to believe that Marlena was possessed by the devil! :shame:

I wonder when Alamainia changed it's divorce laws? I mean, Jen didn't have to go spend two weeks there to get her divorce from Lawrence. They did that all nice and legal in the U.S. Or, if they didn't, then Jack and Jennifer were never legally married.

I wonder if this is a plot point to get Hope out of town since a certain someone will be showing up soon.

And this would probably give Marlena more time to interact with Will.

I cannot, nor will I ever buy into EJ being John and Hope's son now that he's had one of the worst cases of SORAS in soap history. The thought that Hope could be mother to a character EJ's age is ludicrous at best. Kristian Alfonso looks more like she could be James Scott's sister but certainly not his mommy. What bullshit. :redface:

I think this is really stupid. I hope there is much more to it. If not, what a let down.

Why can't Bo and Marlena go? Maybe there is a "rule" that they can't STAY with John and Hope, but I don't see why they can't still go along. Are they going to kick them out of the country?? So ridiculous.
There was only room for 2 with the current budget. ;)
Sounds like there's only one room in the hotel....I mean total rooms! :tumbleweed:

I'm doubting we'll even see them in Alamainia.

I'm done. I'm just done. There's so much WTFuckery going on in those articles and at this sorry attempt for a "story". I don't even have the energy to point out everything that's wrong with it or how this is even possible or the stupidity of the stipulations attached to getting the marriage annulled. It's fucking bullshit, just like the rest of MarDars stories. Days can rot in cancellation hell.

I don't get it. Will EJ turn out to be John and Hope's son? Doesn't make any sense.

Is this the only secret? What about Stefano's?

Does anyone see a wedding here? This promo clearly shows John being kidnapped, taken onto the submarine, having sex with Hope and then being tossed back into the ocean where he was found by Marlena. This all happened in Hawaii in the span of a couple hours. At no time did anyone get off the submarine and have a quickie wedding after a leisurely cruise to Alamainia.



I can handle contrived plot devices if the story is worth it, but this just doesn't make sense. It's simply not possible for John and Hope to be married.
I hope they don't try to sell us that it happened in 1999. It could work if it supposedly happened sometime between 1990-1994. They could easily say that Stefano activated John's chip and had him go meet up with Hope/Gina offscreen at some point. Wouldn't be much different than Bo turning out to be Zack's father because he pantomimed his pee-pee into Princess Gina's putang
"pantomimed his pee pee into princess gina's putang"

hahahahaha say that 1- times fast!

Much better than John and Hope having a child, or that child turning out to be EJ.
I have no doubt that's where it's going next...I mean the whole reason they can't get a quickie annulment is because their marriage was "consummated" so they're either going to bump into their mystery child in Alamania or we'll find out it's EJ. Fucking gag me. Like seriously when was this suppose to happen, when hope was 8 :eyeroll:

But Hope is not Gina, and there was a real Gina who was with John, right? So...he married Hope/Gina and not Gina-Gina? Whatever. This is another story where you either go with it or you don't, like eggbaby and EJ/Sami sex. I'm not sure which way I fall yet, because it's so...bizarre.

Honestly, what's the big deal about them being legally married? Inheritance? Why is there a need for them to divorce? I think that's the question I need answered to buy in to this storyline, because a legal marriage doesn't have any meaningful impact on the John/Marlena or Bo/Hope relationships, imho.

I wish they'd bring on Greta with this storyline. She was kinda interesting, or at least had potential.

ETA- They should have Belle/Shawn on for this. They're losing an important element to show why this thing matters without their children around. I know Ciara's there, but she's like 8. An adult child's reaction to this would have made it so much richer, imho.

EJ was born in 1997,John thought he was married to Kritter(Kristen) at the time,but also in love with Marlena,when the hell would John and Hope been together,that would make no sense,then again this whole John/Hope being married is stupid.Hope was declared legally dead and John spent the later 80's raising Sami,Eric,Carrie when the hell would he have been brainwashed again,especially by Stefano,he was busying having Marlena be preggers with Cassie and Rex,this whole thing is stupid.
