Aiden's scenes with Jennibore and the Deverauxs made me cringe! :yuk: Ugh! Gawd, why must TIIC torture me by throwing in their fave in with mine, dammit!! :whack: Jennibore better lay off of Hope's man or I'll bust a cap in her dull ass. :censored:
Aiden can't JUST be in scenes with Hope. He has to interact with other characters on the show, just like everyone else. IMO, his scenes with Jen & JJ were important because they showed the audience a different side of Aiden (and also told us what he does for a living). We've also now got Hope, who thinks Aiden is a big jerk, and Jen, who thinks Aiden's an amazing lawyer for stepping in for Justin and helping with JJ's case. I don't think Jen's interested in Aiden. She's just grateful for his assistance and the fact that he understood where she was coming from with respect to her nerves and why she was questioning things. btw, I sent you a PM.
I think it's actually pretty good writing there. Jennifer and Hope have always been close, and the writers found a way to dovetail the JJ plot into Hope's potential new love interest. And yes, Aiden has been a jerk to Hope, so now we see he's a good lawyer who reassured Jennifer and was both personable and professional. So, we the audience has seen Aiden be a good guy, a good guy who by doing his job helped JJ. I don't think they are setting up Jennifer to be attracted to Aiden. They are setting her up to be the person that tells Hope to give him a chance. And also, they might be setting up Jen to tell Aiden to give her cousin a chance, or possibly explain to him why she's acting the way she's acting. Ultimately, who Aiden interacted with wasn't as important as the fact that he interacted with characters outside of Hope. The fact that he interacted with her cousin & BFF was an added bonus.

So what is the status of Bope's relationship? Hope is still married to him right? I know it's strained since he's not come back. I agree Jennifer talking well of Aiden will go far for Hope to think well of him but I doubt she's going to push them together any time soon. Jennifer isn't related to Bo (like Kayla is) so she can give a more unbiased view of how Haiden look, she might pick up on their attraction but probably in a cautionary way. I would like to think they would use Kayla too because she's really good friends with Hope. She's Bo's sister so there might be a knee jerk reaction from Kayla on seeing Hope move on, but in the way they had Steve dump Kayla, she might understand how Hope feels better than Jennifer does.
Great possibilities with this story. Very looking forward to it.

But I reckon we have more hope of Sami having Sex with Roman than that actually happening .

No it wasn't. :hmmph: you may not think so because you think Jen's the devil, but it makes sense for someone who Hope is very close to to have a positive opinion about Aiden.

Great possibilities with this story. Very looking forward to it. Bo & Hope are still married, and they still love each other. Hope's just frustrated with his continuing to work on whatever case/mission it is he's working on and not taking the time to remind his daughter that he loves her.
It's all the various possibilities and combinations of those possibilities that is why i'm loving this story. Yes, i love that Hope's got something more to do than just pop up in other stories, but this story actually has me excited about what's to come. I think we all know what the end point will be: Hope & Aiden becoming a couple. But we can only theorize how that happens. There's no specific list of things that will happen between now & then. The most we can do is assume generalities.

Okay, I found my spark of hope re: Nicole and the evidence. Because of the flashbacks to Eric's declarations, it seems as though her decision is based on a potential relationship with him. I'm starting to think that we're not seeing her entire thought process (despite the sheer volume of flashbacks). Part of her dialogue today made me wonder if there's something else going on. After Eric leaves her in the square, she sits down on the bench and says that she needs a sign to know whether she's doing the right thing.
If Nicole was flat-out hiding the evidence from Eric out of fear, why would she have any moral ambiguity at all? Why would she be asking God for a sign that she's morally correct in what she's doing? She's not a stupid woman nor is she delusional about what's happening with Eric. Given the choice between "give the evidence and Eric reconsiders" and "hide the evidence and get involved with Eric," there's obviously only one morally right choice. The fact that she's asking this particular question makes me think something else is going on, especially since she's not even really choosing the morally wrong option. She's neither choosing the right option nor is she benefiting from the wrong one.
That's my thread of hope. Either she has other factors she's considering or she is wrestling with her options and can still pull herself out of it. I'm not thrilled that she didn't just hand it over, but I'm still holding out hope that Ericole won't start out tainted by this.

I'm not liking that Nicole is staying silent about having the evidence that could clear Eric. Nicole looking up and asking God if she's doing the right thing is not cutting it for me. Stay silent and in the end you'll have to pay the piper for that choice because it's going to look like you didn't say anything just so Eric wouldn't have the option to return to the Church as a priest.
Brady is a world-class moron ... they should make an Olympic sport out of that - he'd be a shoo-in for the gold medal!
LOL @ your Brady comment! As for Nicole.. Here's what I don't get, and maybe I don't pay close enough attention, but, why is she pushing him to reconsider his decision and not to rush things with it and suggesting he might regret his decision? Why not just give him the evidence so he can make up his mind for sure, which seems to be what she wants him to do anyway? I'm not getting it.
Guilt. It's clear the guilt is getting to her & is scared. Scared to give him the evidence & wants affirmation that he wants her and won't renig if she does show him the evidence. And all for dramatic affect/effect, whichever spelling is correct. -_- Guilt about what?

I'm so bummed about the Ericole situation. I wish Nicole would just tell him. I don't get why she practically sacrificed both her and St. Daniel's lives to get the truth - she's been totally obsessed with finding that proof - and now she's holding it back. It would have made more sense to me if Eric had said something along the lines of "Well, it was close, but since the church probably won't take me back I pick you." But he didn't. He chose her over the priesthood. I don't get her actions, and I don't like them.
I think Ericole have plenty of problems already - his family's reaction to her and this situation among them - to drive their story. They didn't need to have Nicole holding back something that has been so super important to both him and her for these last few months.
For the sake of Nicole's own growth and character development, I hope she lets the evidence be found, even if that involves sneaking it back onto the boat so the police can obtain it lawfully. Right now, she's wrestling with temptation and losing, but it's not too late for her to change her mind. Until the day she destroys or buries the evidence, there's still a chance that she can avoid shooting herself in the foot and sabotaging her own happiness. But since TomSell apparently prefer to write all the show's women as desperate for a man, it's probably prudent to brace oneself for the worst. You're right, they did sort of the same thing with Marlena and the Kristen crap. Marlena did stupid desperate insecure things that Marlena would never do. These writers don't like women much, or at least certain women.

If it was dramatic effect they were or are aiming for, they failed. It just makes Nicole look shallow, and makes me think that her love for Eric was not that deep. They had him saying to her more than once, that since there is no evidence people are going to continue believing the bad things about him (not his exact words, but close) and all she kept doing was flashing back to when she found the evidence, as if we did not all sit through it the first time. We really don't need constant reminders. We already felt deep disappointment when she did not reveal the information the first time. Why keep rubbing it in. It made her look terrible for keeping quiet. They have her doing this to the man she supposedly loves, and giving us no explanation for her sudden 180. She put herself in danger to get the evidence so that she can clear him, and we had that whole spiel about her not wanting to be second choice, and now she is lying not only to her partner in crime, but to Eric as well, about not finding anything to clear him, so that she can hang on to Eric? It makes no sense. They are showing her as being incredibly selfish now, when they haven't in a while. Most of her previous actions was to help Eric. It would have been nice, if she was withholding the info. so that she can place it somewhere where the police could find it and take it in as evidence so that Kristen can pay, but, when she was left alone and talking to herself, nothing to that nature was mentioned or even hinted at. They took any joy we could have had out of the story by doing it this way. They killed it for me when they had Eric accusing Nicole of raping him. Now it is Nicole's turn to mess up. Seriously this kind of drama I can do without if they are suppose to be writing a love story. Maybe it is not a love story. They both love each other but they are not really in love with each other. Eric's first love is the church, so he resigns from it to save it anymore embarrassment. Nicole is more in love with what she perceives as Eric's goodness more than the man himself, so that is why she can look him in the face and deny that she is holding on to crucial evidence that would clear him. Maybe she is holding on to the documents for reasons unknown, but it is valentine's day, give the Eric and Nicole fans something, by having her give a valid reason as to why she is hanging on to the documents and not saying anything. A reason that is sound enough that some of us don't think that she is being completely selfish and heartless. The poor guy was publicly humiliated, this is not the time to hold on to the evidence, and it just seems silly her asking help from God when it is a no brainer. She said thank God when she found the evidence in the first place. I really don't like TomSell's writing. I can't watch Brady anymore and I use to love him. I agree, this is not super couple writing in my opinion. Eric and Nicole had potential but these writers lost me.. First when Eric accused her of raping him and now her reaction to him choosing her.

The writing for Will and Sonny was so good yesterday! I honestly felt like this was Will and Sonny's episode. Their scenes were lengthy and deep, which still makes makes me very says that NBC basically forced the removal of them from the promo. Yesterday showed that Will and Sonny are the most committed and in love couple on the show and it's sad that NBC feared backlash from affiliates on that. But any way...
Guy and Freddie just have "it" together! Their chemistry is incredible. I'm not even just referring to bed scenes or kissing scenes...just the way they look at each other and touch each other...wow!!! Guy to me has made Will his own. I feel more-so than past year or so just how deep Will really feels for Sonny. The last two scenes of Will and Sonny in bed were the highlight to me with them brainstorming and planning their wedding. It was just like what most couples do but oddly rarely shown like that on soaps. That was awesome! And the scene prior talking about the book written by the gay man was so fitting and made me think about the Olympics, Russia and NBC's decision about the promo. Very ironic. Sonny and Will talking about them begin an official family now, I still get the sense in the end Sonny will be legal guardian to Ari. With Gabi leaving and Ari staying, I see Gabi dying or being found unfit whole being sent to prison which are two easy ways for Sonny to made legal guardian. I'm just glad Wilson decide to marry before that possibly happens and not after just to server that purpose.
I will lose it even more if with the Wilson wedding, NBC refuses to promote it on a tv promo. Enough is enough with trying to cater to hate when Will and Sonny are depicting just the opposite.
The rest of the show seemed filler to me.
Nicole and Eric a total snooze. I know they have fans but I just can't get into them. I feel no chemistry and their story is so boring.
I love love love Hope and Aiden. Jury still out on how much story will come from it but I love them together. I hope they either have Bo die off screen or Hope divorce Bo so she can move on freely. But let her cheat before so she can get more story.
Please let this be the end of JJ and the drug/court story. And please get him away from Theresa. That entire story is stale and OT. I love JJ but i feel like he's not as interesting as he was when he first stared on the show. He needs a better story.
