I love how she's going to the Ozarks like it's one central location and not thousands of miles that span multiple states.

And I STILL don't get her motivation in all of this. I understand that our hokey writers need an antagonist to propel this long-stagnant plot, but there are any number of less bullshit ways to do it.

Gee I thought they've made it perfectly clear that Kate's motivation, or should we call it purpose in life, is to make sure lil Rafey boy doesn't get hurt by nasty, insincere Jordan. I mean someone has to stop what this horrible bitch is getting away with right?

Poor LK had to back up this cockamamie by saying in the SOD article that Kate tells Jordan to 'stand by her man and quit being so selfish' because Kate wants to see if Jordan will follow through because if she doesn't Kate will know that Jordan's feelings for Rafe weren't real. OMG! Honestly! Can they make Kate any more pathetic in this? Rafe's the one swinging his dick from woman to woman. He's the last person anyone should be concerned about having his feelings hurt. Kate acting as Rafe's mom and his fuck buddy both has turned this whole story repulsive.

I'm completely on Jordan's side. I hope Kate gets burned for being a horny, nosy bitch instead of taking her dignity and walking away the minute Rafe began ogling Jordan. And I hope Stefano has some success in retribution on Rafe this time round because the jackass deserves it and if not Stefano then let protective Ben go to town on his ass.

Days is good at destroying couples. Jafe, Ericole, Jarlena, Jack/Jen, etc etc.
I now have the same feelings about Rafe that I had when Nicole shredded and tried to burn the documents that could clear Eric's name.I was hoping Rafe would tell Jordan about his "mistake" with Kate but I don't think he does.It is not likely Jordan would have sex with him right after he tells her he had sex with Kate but I could be wrong.
Perhaps he could explain what happened with Kate in a way that Jordan forgives him.Jordan does know that Kate is interferring in her relationship with Rafe.

You know, I've noticed for the past couple of years, the Ozarks have been brought in a few times. I even remember when JKJ was still on, Philip had mentioned Branson or Springfield (one or the other). I noticed because I'm from Missouri and have relatives in that region. I almost fell out of my chair, especially since JKJ is FROM Springfield. So at the time, I wondered if he just ad libbed that. But now I'm wondering if there's someone on staff with an Ozark connection. It just seems to be a not so common place to bring up on a national TV show.

What's stopping what was a sweet romance dead in its tracks for me is not only Rafe having sex with Kate when Jordan was trying so hard to support him, is for him to not come clean about it. Instead he's going to disrespect Jordan even more by sleeping with her while leading her to believe he is committed to their relationship. That's low down and dirty!

If Rafe explained what happened Jordan would be extremely hurt for sure, but maybe she could understand at some point because she witnessed the state he was in. She heard the conversations where his mother put the blame on him and he vocalized to Jordan that he accepted that blame. He was miserable with guilt and wanted no one to give him an out. Telling Ben that he would just end up screwing up Jordan's life and she was better off without him also showed his frame of mind. Rafe wanted to withdraw from everything and everyone. Except he didn't. He didn't go to the gym and work out his frustrations on the punching bag or take a run to the point of exhaustion. He used Kate's advance to his benefit and Jordan deserves that information. Yes, Jordan does know that Kate has been lurking, biding her time for a chance to swoop in and maybe that will influence how Jordan feels about what went down. But, Rafe not showing remorse and demanding Jordan give to him while tucking away his "small mistake" ^o) takes him from one of the better men to the bottom of the heap.

Its a shame the writers did this to Rafe. It seems apparent they can't figure out how to write flaws for this good guy without dragging him in the gutter. And I agree about Nicole. They've also taken her to a place that makes it very hard to want to watch her. Its a signal when characters descend to unappealing depths that a hard look needs to be taken at what's being written for them.

After all this stalling, Jordan's secret better be something damn exciting. I mean, Jordan better turn out to be a post-plastic surgery Jan Spears or a drug kingpin or a time travelin' princess or at least something halfway interesting. But I'm 99% sure that I'll be disappointed by whatever stuff DAYS eventually reveals about Jordan's mysterious past.
I agree, they are taking so long and Jordan has not been the most exciting character at days I won't be surprise if it is boring.

Just more lazy writing...drag the "good guys" down to the level of the bad guys instead of trying to make the bad guys have SOME likeable quality and build upon that (Patch & Kayla, anyone??). It would have been more compelling if Rafe had contemplated hitting the sheets with Kate, but realized that he didn't want to out of respect for Jordan & didn't want to use Kate like that. But Jordan thought they screwed & of course, Kate didn't correct her on it. It terrifies me that Tomlin & his typing chimps are - as I type this & you read it - potentially mapping out where the show is headed for the 50th & potentially beyond.

UGH to Rafe sleeping with Jordan a day or two after having sex with Kate. Sleazy much?

I liked Rafe and Jordan okay in the beginning, but Days is pretty much wrecking everything that was good about them, too. Shocking, right?
Now that Rafe has slept with Kate and then hops in the sack with Jordan a few days later, I sure hope he doesn't dick around with Kate again. That's way too much sleaze for me.

I wish Kate didn't care so much about Jordan. She's so envious of Rafe and Jordan together. She really needs to back off and let Jordan reveal her secrets when she's ready to. It frustrates me. I feel like I'm hitting my head against a wall when I watch how Kate treats Jordan. Kate treats Jordan the same way over and over. This is how Kate makes me feel :headbang:

I thought only EJ got this kind of treatment from the writers. I'm really surprised they are going in this direction with Rafe. I swear I'm expecting to see him and EJ commiserating over beers.
well they have been friendly recently.

Exactly.

Of course Patch and Kayla are my go to couple for lots of things.

Ericole - fix them up - Patch and Kayla.

But then I guess things didn't work out for Patch and Kayla.... so maybe I shouldn't use them.

Seriously most stupid story ever. They have done nothing with Kayla since she's been back. They could have kept them married with Patch understanding that Kayla needed to be in Salem for her mother.

It's up there with retconning Parker's paternity. Why did we have to suffer through that it's added nothing to the storylines half the time he isn't even here I would have rather kept my Phloe off screen images intact. And quite frankly grandchild of Kate and Victor trumps Grandson of Maggie and unspecified sperm donor.

Patch is a nickname for the character Steve Johnson who wears an eyepatch. He is Kayla's ex-husband.
Look up Steve Johnson here:

That's gross for Rafe to sleep with Jordan not telling her he was off fucking Kate while Jordan spent her night up worrying about him. What an asshole they've made Rafe!
Kinda asshole, but imho Kate took advantage of Rafe since he was drunk at Club TBD. She had that gleam in her eye like she was up to something, and that something was to get Rafe in bed. She's a total whore like Victor would say!

Patch is the story they probably should have run with for EJ in 2006/7 if they truly wanted EJ and Sami to work.

Although Sami is no Kayla so it probably would never have worked.

But the aspects of bad man, with bad upbringing, bad father etc who redeems himself but is always a slightly loose cannon.
