If Chandler was still here, he'd be doing his odd grinning or laughing thing in these scenes. |

Does Lucas have a home? Serious question. I don't think the show has bothered to give him one since his return. It seemed his idea to have her stay at the Pub actually comforted Allie since Nick liked the Pub so much (??), so I don't think that was a bad choice. Didn't EJ also have a part in saying Allie should not go to DiMansion? He said Lucas was right, they had to prepare Johnny and Sydney for her reaction or something. And Lucas wanted to take Allie with him because the only person Allie listens to is Kate, apparently? And it seems he wasn't wrong. It wasn't exactly that he REFUSED Sami's insistence that Allie be with her, which was wise since Sami spent a lot of time looking really suspicious with EJ. I don't know why neither Lucas nor Sami thought to shield Allie from looking at Nick some more....my guess is so that we could clearly see her looking at Nick. Sween did play that super frantic and, I understand that Sami as a mother would be very worried for her child, but I don't think the frantic-ness helped. It was odd that she INSISTED on Allie looking at her rather than covering her. They both weren't great in those early scenes, I like that Lucas sounded a tad bit calmer though, although still not great. Kate FTW. Edited by elci525, May 12 2014, 11:16 PM.

Oooh. Okay, maybe they didn't say Arianna was at the pub. I thought they had mentioned it before Will was on the phone later, but I couldn't find it just now. So maybe it was Marlena. |

Didn't Lucas take Sheryl to his place for the quickie? But no one seems to have a home. Everyone meets at the pub, club TBD and at the park. |

Wow all of Allie's faces are spot on (even in freeze frame). Edited by concerned, May 12 2014, 11:07 PM.

Awww that little girl is breaking my heart - especially in the third screen cap. That's the moment that really got me, and the one I think should win these twins an Emmy.

In past few days/weeks, Rafe had confided to Jordan that Nick was trying to control Gabi. In today's episode, Jordan said to Gabi: "In times like this, no matter where you two are now, it just falls away, and he just becomes the person that you loved once. This shouldn't happen to anyone." The following is my interpretation of what Jordan meant: Jordan really understood that Gabi really couldn't mourn the abusive side of Nick. But at the same time, Jordan understood that Gabi could sincerely mourn losing Gabi's concept of her idealistic dream of what she'd wanted to have with Nick, and some of the good moments they'd had long ago. If that's what Jordan meant, I think it was helpful. She gave Gabi permission to grieve her dreams ... and yet not have to embrace the abuse. It was okay to have mixed emotions. And I think Gabi really needed to be able to experience all those emotions. When Gabi went in to view Nick's body, I saw her remembering those dreams, but then when she went to reach out toward his face, she recoiled as if in memory of his abuse. I wondered if Jordan had been a victim of abuse, or if she had once counseled abused women. |

I've already stated that I didn't like how either Lucas or Sami handled Allie. But when Lucas left with her, he was intending to take her home, and then she fell asleep at the pub. Going into the pub at all was a compromise because Allie didn't want to go to bed. I still think he should have stayed, and I think Sami should have been there, too. |

LOL no probably just the one, but I wasn't sure who it was. Campbell I think? An article said she does dramatic material well. |

Grandma's got it covered - along with baby Ari ??? Quite frankly she's probably better off waking up to Marlena / Caroline / Kayla regardless. |

Will had EJ for a lawyer.If I had to choose between EJ and Aiden in a courtroom battle,I would definitely choose Aiden although EJ would always have the option of begging, crying,and crawling to Stefano to save little Ari in order to stay in Sami's good graces. |

I remember a while ago some posters indicated that it had been quite sometime since Days killed off an important character.I'm not sure whether this was before or after the Stefano shooting.I thought of that when it became clear that Nick was going to die.Perhaps the writers or someone connected to the show does pay attention to the ideas of the viewers.I just hate that the character to die is Nick. While I understand Kate being happy that Nick was likely dead,I hated the off hand way she told Maggie about Nick being shot.I hated that Sami did not insist on going with Allie to make sure her daughter was okay after having seen her favorite cousin seriously injured.Good mother my ass.I hated that Sami and EJ went to the hospital.I hated the wink EJ gave Sami while they were at the hospital.Loved Julie,Hope,Maggie,and Gabi remembering her initial feelings toward Nick. |

Anybody else notice Sonny rolling his eyes when Julie was talking to Gabi about how much Nick loved her? |

I've liked Jordan,except when she is talking to Ben,but today I loved her.I liked that she went to help Julie with Nick until EMS arrived and when she indicated to Rafe he did not need to display false concern for Nick,just be there for his sister.I thought Gabi was great with Julie,Maggie,Nick,and Rafe. |

I rarely notice anything Sonny does because Freddie Smith is like a Galen Gering. Not much there. |

The whole set up to Nick getting shot didn't make much sense to me. It was like the writers tried too hard to create many suspects. :shrug: |

I was thinking about this as I was watching today's eppi, and I've come to the conclusion that if they colored in GW's eyebrows, we'd see the emotion more readily in his eyes, b/c I think he's doing everything right, it's just we pick up a lot of our cues subconsciously from eyebrow position and it's very hard to see his change position b/c it's hard to see his eyebrows, period. Just a little bit of color would go a long way, imho. |

Such a good episode actually had to put my cell down and watch just about every scene. Maggie that I used to love is so much better when her egg baby isn't around. KA nailed her scenes looking over a dead Nick. And as always SSH was spot on and needs to be on so much more. Wish Doug was used for these episodes as well. I hope we get some good Jennifer/JJ scenes as Abby tells them what happened. I had to laugh the way Kate just nonchalantly told Maggie Nick was shot. LK imo is so good at playing the bitch and was very in character for Kate not to give two fucks. Lastly, the twins that play Allie outshined AS and that's sad. Looking forward to the rest of the fallout. |
