CB literally was the highlight of this show today. She was amazing in her scenes - kudos to her. I felt her pain and guilt as the abuse victim. And her scenes were written beautifully. This was by far her best work and should be her emmy reel. Hoping for more great scenes from her in these next few days until her exit.

What pissed me off? Everyone else's reply / reactions. Sami seemed almost gleeful, and Will and Sonny are displaying their happiness over Will's "being free". It was horribly written, and horribly acted. Even EJ only tried to talk Gabi out of confessing ... for maybe 15 seconds, until he realized that by her doing so would let the rest of them (himself included) off the hook. They should have been much more concerned about her instead of just playing it like oh, well that sucks, huh. They should be thankful to her that she's not going to sell Sami and Kate down the river or the rest of them. Imo, Kami are the reason this whole mess happened.

I hope Rafe's reaction to all of them is to tell them all they are ALL to blame for where Gabi is sitting. He tried to help her, but everyone told him to stay out of it, and in the end, they didn't help her either. I want to see Rafe go bat-shit crazy on them!

Even Hope's reply to Gabi pissed me off. When Gabi apologized to Hope, and her reply was He didn't deserve to die. That may be true, but her response should have been imo, I'm sorry, too.

As far as Ericole goes, I'm just glad the truth is out. Days ruined them for me and I don't want to see Nicole grovel in any way. I do like the fact that she told him that he picked her and her reasoning for lying to him. I also want to see Daniel get pissy with Jen Jen for telling Eric - it was not her place. It pisses me off that's how it played out. Of course, Daniel shouldn't have been a part of it either. But Nicole needs to tell all of them to fuck off, including Eric.

Also, it's Sonny who seems more happy than Will, who seems more pensive. Sonny cares enough about Ari that I'm sure he's going to be sad for the loss of her mother, but I think it's probably also incredibly relieved he's not married to Nick's killer. Will's probably relieved that Sonny didn't do it, but his feelings seem more mixed to me.
I'm sure Sonny and Will care. It's the scenes at the end of the show that bugged me the most. They were out of place and I think this was a bad writing choice.

Quoting limited to 4 levels deep
But that's exactly what he did. Nicole and Daniel are the ones who went after Chyka to get the evidence in the first place while Eric was off soul-searching. And this was after Chyka damn near killed him and Nicole. He was more interested in finding himself than finding the truth. He needs to fight his own battles next time.
Daniel and Nicole didn't have to chase Chyka. They could have informed the police where he was hiding. Eric is not to blame for that. Eric barely had a pov in the rape storyline. I don't think Eric was making Nicole a second choice at all. He chose Nicole. I am just glad shredgate is over. TPTB destroyed Ericole. If we are stuck with Jeneric and Dicole, I'm going to cry.
I'm 99,9999999% sure this is where the writing is heading. :puke:

Is it me or did Sonny and Will seem a little too cheerful today?

I understand Gabi has done unsympathetic things in the past, but I'm sad she is leaving.
They just almost lost each other for a long time, it makes sense that they should be relieved about that. The fact that Will did not want to leave the police station without seeing Gabi, that Sonny was on the phone finding out when they could go and see Gabi. and other comments show that they are not indifferent to what is happening.
Thanks for pointing those things out. ITA

I just can't get behind Will's actions as being a 'hero' A hero doesn't put another person above their own child. Simple as that.

I'm guessing Jeneric is a good possibility, but I'm having a hard time believing that Dicole will happen.

I much prefer EJ as a lawyer and not as a corporate shark. I think EJ prefers it too as JS is very animated when discussing Gabi's defence with her. Speaking of Gabi, CB is really killing her confession scenes, I am so glad that she was the one who told the Melanie secret even though it was an abridged version of events. This is her best work on this show I think, this episode is definitely Camilla's emmy reel submission imo.

EJ is working hard to help Gabi get the best deal she can, I personally don't think WilSon could care less about her now that Will is off the hook. Both Will and Sonny seem concerned for Gabi and the impact Gabi's absence will have on Arianna's life. I also think that Will confessing wasn't just about protecting Sonny but also about Will's guilt concerning his shooting EJ as well as the guilt and shame he still carries for not standing up to Nick and allowing himself to be pushed around. Gabi's has made her own fate in that she wants to be punished for her actions, now all that can be done is to try and lessen her punishment and the time she will serve. WilSon taking Ari home does not make them the villains here, imo.
exactly with a child involved regardless of what else Will & sonny might feel weather because of Arianna or for other reasons it clear writers are saying that as a parent and step parent the choice was made that ultimate Arianna had to come first. What could be does for Gabi was limited... and it basically had to be down by EJ and that get Gabi the best plea deal possible. There isn't much that Sonny or Will could do to help that out and Gabi & Will's daughter, Sonny's step daughter Arianna is just barely one years old so that had to be a factor. Both Will & Sonny seemed to want a change to talk to Gabi further before she headed off to jail and it sound like they will get the point before she does it just wasn't going to be a part of today's scenes.

Did anyone say Will's actions were heroic? Even Sonny called him an idiot today. Even Will's fans are saying it was un-wise and he shouldn't have done it, it's just that they think it was a poorly thought out emotional impulse based on guilt that he got Sonny into a position where he would consider killing someone and a desire to atone for the EJ shooting.

I know what Nicole did was wrong but Eric being a former priest he sure is quick to hate and slow in forgiving, isn't he? Throws tantrums and forgets that he is supposed to forgive and not judge.
He was totally made a fool of. I haven't finished watching yet, but so far I don't see too much condemnation. Just wanting truth.

you'd think Sami would be a little worried (or at least grateful that she isn't) that Gabi is throwing her & Kate under the bus
Not with EJ in there I don't think she was worried.

Good Old nasty Jennifer had to spread the truth fast. Just as fast as she spread her legs for Dr. Dan after Jack died.

I just cannot agree with Gabi being a heroine here. After what she did to Melanie...whom I hate with every fiber of my being, mind you. She kept that a secret and I will always remember her snide remarks to Sonny and chad whenever it was brought up. She thought she could get away with it forever and guess what? I am so damned glad it came out today..bout time it did. And I have no sympathy for her in her killing of Nick. She or any one of them could have gone to the police at any time. It didn't have to come to this..Nick died because 1: To hide their crimes and 2: because the writers are fucking idiots. I know Blake wanted to leave the show, ugh but not this way, damn it!
I'm just waiting to see Will's reaction to that bit of news AND that Sonny's known all along.

I wanna see others' reaction to the Daysaster News as well.

Sonny was on the phone and says they can't see Gabi for awhile. Wilson talk about how they need to communicate with each other better, especially now that they are all Ari has. Sonny says Will is a romantic idiot and he can't believe Will would think he would let Will go to prison for him. They hug.

DA is snarking to EJ. Gabi confesses and tearfully apologizes to Hope, who says Nick didn't deserve to die. After she leaves, Gabi cries to EJ that she wants to hold Arianna. Gabi weeps that she's never going to see Arianna again. (??? You can visit people in prison).

Sami hugs Rafe in HTS and says I'm so sorry.

Jen-Jen searches for Daniel.

Eric loses all sympathy for Nicole and says what she did had nothing to do with love.
I'm really looking forward to Gabi's tearful apology to Hope. It's a nice touch, IMO. It's showing that Gabi understands that, while Nick was being manipulative towards her, he did still have a family who loved him and who are mourning his loss (even after learning about his blackmailing & whatnot).

Spoiler: click to toggle


I'm probably way off base here, but concerning what's beneath your spoiler tag........

Spoiler: click to toggle
But then what is Hope supposed to be doing the rest of the episode?!

I'll admit that I didn't pay much attention to the dannifer/Liam stuff, but is it really even remotely Nicole's fault that Jennifer almost died?
Kinda more Teresa's . .. IJS!
