Bring back Jack!

^ I think she is a virgin but she's not that naive (other than the fact she thinks one night in her head means she and Austin have a future). Maybe she got some tips from Jennifer. She had quite a few tricks of her own when she was trying to seduce Jack back in the day;) Maybe she just got undressed again when she woke up..or she snuck back in early to "set the scene". It's still un-Abby and unbelievably icky. No excuses here she's just gone from obsessive crush to delusional overnight and I don't like it. The only thing I'm looking forward to is the fallout when the truth comes out and how her parents (mainly Jack) will react. |

Has the show recently said Abby was a virgin? If not, I find it hard to believe that's what we're supposed to think. Abby found it really weird that Will wasn't sleeping with Gabi. |

Okay it looks like Abigail is wearing a shirt for a dress today, I was really not paying too much attention to it yesterday because i was entertained by drunk Austin. Marlena you can murder Stefano but that will not change the fact that John is married to Hope. If I was John I would not feel comfortable leaving Marlena when he goes to Almania with Hope because she seems real hellbent on murdering Stefano right now. It's like he's gotta die RIGHT NOW!!!!! Of course I know she will not because clearly he is still around. I am not sure if I would want to see Stefano dead right now. Looking forward to some of the stuff coming up with him like this secret in the envelope and the competition that he will clearly have in Ian. Edited by Virgo Twins, Feb 8 2012, 01:25 PM.

At least murdering Stefano would give DH something to do other than being a sounding board for half of Salem. It would actually be a story centered on Marlena. |

I am puzzled about Bope and Jarlena's reasoning on this show. In the past Stefano has done many things to all of them. That is certainly true. But in this instance, what did he do? Hope is the one who found all the things at her grandmother's and thus the investigation began. Even the key to the safe deposit box was unavailable until Bo broke the Horton plaque. How is any of that Stefano's fault? It seemed like all along Stefano did not want Hope to know the secret. Had Hope not pushed to find out everything, Jarlena and Bope would be none the wiser and totally happy, until the next reason for angst comes along. Blaming this mess on Stefano just seems stupid and irrational to me. Just yesterday Marlena told Carrie she did nothing wrong when she stuck her tongue down Sami's husband's throat. Does that mean the people Marlena likes can do no wrong and Stefano, whom she hates, can be blamed for anything and everything? Convoluted writing. Edited by pspcindy, Feb 8 2012, 01:42 PM.

I can see blaming Stefano on some level. If not for his manipulations, John and Hope never would have run off and gotten married in the first place (he's the one who created their Father John/Gina personalities); but I agree that they need to stop acting like this was something he purposely caused to happen. |

I think Patrick Muldoon did a great job of playing completely clueless guy today. His facial expressions as he slowly realized what probably happened were really funny. |

Damn. I guess I'm the only person who doesn't think Abby is acting either crazy or psycho. A little naive & delusional, perhaps, but far from psycho. Also, I really liked how the Austin/Abby scenes played out. Abby never set out to trick Austin. When the opportunity prevented itself, she kissed him and he actually kissed her back. She was willing to follow the assumed natural progression (i.e. sleeping with him), but he passed out beforehand. The next morning, he quickly assumed that they'd done the deed (which shocked Abby) and she made a very impulsive, split second decision not to correct him. We even see her later in the episode debating whether she should tell him the truth. Not crazy. My only qualm about it is that we only JUST SAW a couple of months ago a nearly identical "did we sleep together while drunk?" scene between Brady & Madison with one misleading the other as a prank (?!) for the majority of an episode. Furthermore, I laugh at everyone who has issues with Abby crushing on and pursuing Austin because clearly no one remembers when Hope had the hots for Roman (while he was with Marlena) and even lured him up to the Horton cabin to seduce him. Or Carrie crushing on the older Lawrence and trying to seduce HIM. I swear that each time we see Bo & Hope's bedroom that it's a completely different bedroom. I know it's a tiny temp set, but could we at least get some consistency? I thought today's episode was INFINITELY better than the previous 2 and by FAR the best episode of the week so far. I thought today's script was rather good. I especially liked Abby going "I've got to stop talking to myself. No one dates a crazy lady." I nearly choked on my coffee. I also thought the dialog between Carrie & Austin was miles above the previous Carrie/Marlena and Rafe/Sami dialog. Today's episode was directly by Phil Sogard and written by Lacey Dyer. |

Holy crap, I love Abigail right now! Haha, she plays crazy well! We haven't had a true psycho in a very long time, so I'm looking forward to this. I don't even mind that she's the child of a precious supercouple....that just makes the stakes higher. I care more and therefore, I'm enjoying it more. Sometimes a storyline like this has to involve a character viewers hold closer to their hearts. If it were Melanie and Rafe or something, I'd just be rolling my eyes out of my head right now. But seriously, does Austin have a sign that says "trick me into thinking we slept together" on his forehead? Shouldn't he have learned his lesson from Sami? When does Abigail pretend to be pregnant? |

Abigail looked all kinds of creepy today won't be long before the girl is completely PSYCHO!!!!! I do not think that she is that far gone yet just delusional right now but she has the potential to get to psycho level. Carrie might have to watch her back maybe even Austin because in these psycho scenarios most of the time the psycho turns on the object of their affection when he/she doesn't share the feelings that they want them to have for them. It's about to get real Fatal Attraction in Salem. Edited by Virgo Twins, Feb 8 2012, 02:31 PM.

The look on Marlena's face at the end of this episode was like "Okay, so the marriage certificate is indeed real, so now can I kill Stefano?" |

I didn't find her crazy or psycho either - just really wanting to believe something and unwilling to hear anything different. I love the way she bolted from the room when Austin was trying to shatter her fantasy. There's definitely a part of her that knows it's all in her head. In some ways, she's reminding me of Jack when he was with Kayla. I just wish they'd set this up better. If they'd had Austin really "be there" for her because Chad left her for Melanie. Instead, they had her flirting with Austin and treasuring his toque before she even broke up with Chad. And even though Chad and Melanie were messing around, Abigail had already moved on in her heart by that point. It's just unnecessarily messy and it makes her wanting to break from reality seem out of the blue. It's all just gone too fast to be convincing for me. On Hallowe'en she's in love and happy with Chad - and by just after Christmas, she's broken up with Chad, he's moved on with her best friend and she's forgiven them both and she's desperately in love with a married man who's old enough to be her dad and is trying to convince herself he feels the same about her. Plus she's working about 20 jobs and going to school. Busy girl. Edited by Dany_E, Feb 8 2012, 02:50 PM.

I also do not think Abby is acting like a psycho from this episode...she is acting nieve and certainly stupid, but psycho? No not even close to that. She has not stepped over that "crazy" line yet... |

OMG, Hilarious! Didn't think of that! That bastard Jack was never around but you would think with Mary Poppins for a mother, she would have turned out better. Remember that Mary Poppins was also "practically perfect in every way"... |

I'll be so pissed if this wasn't all a game set up by Stefano. Come on, Stefano doesn't just let things happen. He sets things up, makes the traps and watches things unravel, then he's triumphed by true love! |

It's Sami. Allie should be thankful she's even in it. So should Johnny and Rafe. |
