Well, here's my line of thinking (since I realized that I didn't complete it) -- once the sex tape comes out, there may be some consequences in terms of Eric's vocation. I don't have the slightest idea how the Catholic Church operates in terms of priests and sex (and maybe someone can clarify this), but it may be such a thing that a sex tape might prompt some sort of an inquiry. If Eric gets in a position that he has to prove he was raped, I'm not sure he can. There are plenty of suspicions and people who believe he was, but there's little in the way of actual proof. He can call witnesses, but the blood tests will show nothing, the physical evidence is gone, and he seems to be enjoying himself on the tape. It will be an interesting turn if Nicole has to testify on his behalf since his accusation is (so far) the only pre-reveal verbalization of what happened. |

Unfortunately, sometimes that's how they treat rape victims. They dont believe them at first. |

Let me rephrase my statement - his family will believe him but the church brass will doubt him. ETA: The Catholic church is so scandal plagued these days, I would buy his bosses AT LEAST temporarily removing him from his post while they investigate the matter.

But they can't tell if he was drugged or took some drugs himself. Hey, maybe Theresa and her "sex drug" will tie into this. What Theresa took and what Kristen gave Eric sounds very similar. Whatever Kristen gave him made him super horny. The only difference being that Kristen's doctor added a masking agent and a memory eraser. |

And they were upset over Sami being arrested during the school opening, something about scandal and such. This will appear much worse than that. |

i think their only protocol is called "cover-up", aka move him to another church and pretend nothing ever happened. |

I agree that the church is going to have issues with this. I am talking about his family and friends knowing that he was drugged. |

Actually it's plausible for people to question WHY Eric was sick....let's face it...when people do something wrong or a stressful situation comes upon them, even when they aren't drugged their nerves can do a number on them and them sick. So Eric being a priest and potentially breaking his vows willingly would certainly be grounds for him feeling sick to his stomach. I would actually love for everyone in Salem to start to doubt Eric and his claim that he didn't do this willingly...and then have someone accuse him of taking the same drug that Theresa took. Maybe even Daniel wonders if Eric might have taken something that had this reaction and that someone didn't 'drug' him. I think that would be a good twist to the story.....and these circumstances along with him doubting Nicole and accusing her of doing something horrible is what firmly leads him to leave the church after his name is cleared... You know what I would LOVE, for the show to tackle the catholic priesthood celibacy issue head on...and have Eric go from being a catholic priest to another Christian denomination minister...that way he can still devote his life to God, but he can also have his wife, and kids....that would be a great story....they can even do a storyline where they would build a Protestant Church or something.....there is no way in hell that only St. Lukes exists in Salem....time to diversify. |

I think Eric's situation will be interesting. I think the show will go with the "how can a man be raped?" scenario. Naturally I believe his family (besides Brady) will believe him. The church will probably have doubts. |

I'll be tuning in this week. Can't wait! I remember Deidre's tweet to Eileen about her amazing work filming these scenes. We didn't know that it was her last few weeks at the time :( |

I think father Matt would believe him & support him, I think he gets that Eric feels tormented. |

I disagree about Daniel I think the two people that will back up and stand strong beside Eric will be Daniel & Nicole. Daniel has watched Eric go nuts over trying to figure out the truth, I just don't think Daniel will doubt Eric. Brady is a dumbass, because his brain has been pickled by Kristen. I, also think, Sami will believe her brother. Hopefully Daniel will also recall how Kristian was always SO interested in him being Eric's doctor, but probably not the tan absorbed into his brain long time ago.

Yeah, they did not care for the bad press. I can't imagine they'll sweep Eric's situation under the rug. |

And I'll bring a recently fallen angel (hint: Supernatural). Although that would also apply to one of the guys in the impala, come to think of it. Eric and Brady are about to :saberduel: . I'm glad they are continuing the story arc of JJ and his weed usage. It actually makes sense that he would be tempted to use again by either Bev or Rory. |

Marlena is hardly a bitch in all this. Kristen drugged and raped her son who is a priest! Kristen deserves everything she gets and then some! I hope Marlena kicks her ass! :cheer: |
