Today's episode felt stronger in that the action flowed well and there were a lot of different characters interacting with each other. I thought the dialogue supported the characters well too. No head scratching moments for me. I like that SPD is busy and they had JJ, Shawn, Rafe, Roman and even lackluster Lani all shown together. JJ looked handsome in his uniform and eager to be there. I'm not sure what Shawn's official title is, but I like they teamed him up with JJ to keep an eye on Deimos. Good soap conflict for Shawn especially. Chad made the rounds in a good way. He had strong interactions with Andre, Hope and then those charming moments with Abby. I loved Chad didn't bow down to Andre's revenge plan even though his eyes told us he's concerned about his fathers death. He did a commendable job hiding that and putting Andre in his place - or should I say kicking Andre out of the mansion? I thought this all was written smart and fitting for both characters. I sense Chad's deep desire to have Hope ease his mind and yet can tell he's not quite believing her. Those were short effective scenes. Now off to show us his delightful chemistry with Abby. Yes, those were anvils falling about bad luck, but I didn't expect their wedding to be a smooth one being as popular as they are and having a crazy ex in the wings. It's going to be full of drama! I was surprised Rafe is his best man, but I suppose all the taunts about Jordan and losing his badge is water under the bridge. New writers, new story. Now the bigger issue is Rafe's cover-up! Yes, it sets so much up! Hope started out so confident and then disappointingly fell apart calling Rafe. Hope! What the hell do YOU want to do about it? Get it together woman! She was the weak link today because she needs to show some grit and determination. At least Rafe went face to face with Andre and I have to say his threatening stance was pretty damn sexy! Go Rafe! Go writers for bringing us to this confrontation too. The cards are all out on the table. Andre calling Hope and taunting her with the opera music was perfection! Classic! Brilliant move! High as a kite Jennifer! Alright! These were good moments with Abby and Theresa witnessing her euphoria. Theresa was right on it too, as she should be. Again, smart writing. I've been bored by Kate for a long time. I think putting her with Eduardo a mistake. He was more interesting with Eve and they actually clicked. I'm happy if they decided to stop this relationship before it stunk worse. The conversation between them worked for a breakup, so let them go separate ways.(I did get a chuckle at all the head tilting they both did during those scenes though!) I was glad that Kate didn't coo at Deimos or accept his money. Maybe they won't keep dumping her in men's beds for her stories. Oh and my favorite bridal gown was on Gabi when she married Nick. I thought her breathtaking. |

I thought it was so fake. You would never say the wrong name where Nicole said "Daniel". |

I love how for once Andre isn't actually coming up with crazy shit and he's telling everyone the truth but nobody believes him, lol Oh and I surprised myself by liking Abby's wedding dress. It was simple yet still stylish. Rafe being Chad's best man makes no sense to me. You'd think it would be JJ (or like Abby even said, Theo). Edited by laurondo, Feb 6 2016, 04:31 AM.

Cut scenes, I think (just going from recaps because I haven't watched the entire show yet) .. Rafe and Roman celebrate JJ's graduation from the police academy, and Shawn shows up for his first day on the job. Jennifer stops by to bring JJ lunch. He's a little embarrassed by her behavior, which is the result of the pills. Lani and Theo get together, and he admits Chase was the one bullying him via text. They offer each other advice on their love lives, and Theo assures her Rafe and Hope will never happen because the only one for Hope was Bo. He thinks she should pursue Rafe. |

Oh please ! There are so many similarities it's not even funny. They both use their charm to get what they want, either one knows the meaning of safe sex and are following in their father's footsteps inpregnating women, both have a penchant for women from "good" families who hate the Demiras and drag children into the house of horror to be raised in a lifestyle they claim to hate . As much as they swear to want out they are always drawn to the dark side again. They are raised to super couple status by the audience but their great love ends up a disaster. I have a feeling Abby's reason for leaving are not because Chad turns out to be a decent guy. |

Wow that seems like some long cuts yesterday. But the police station scenes were definitely choppy. Would have liked to see Theo though. And he's right about Bo. |

The Lani/Theo cut is interesting to me due to the Bo/Hope/Rafe part. On the one hand, it could be interpreted as slowing down the R/H stuff again. On the other hand, not airing a convo that basically says that Bo was the only man for Hope leaves the door open to have Hope move on more quickly. |

One other thing that bothers me. I wish Abe was police commissioner. We never see him as mayor and JR is a much better actor and we're forced to see Roman in all these cop scenes instead. Plus the Roman JJ dynamic creeps me out |

Yeah, I would much prefer seeing Abe more than Roman. I have to imagine that JT has a larger episode guarantee than JR or something, and that's why they don't use him more. Who knows, though? :shrug: |
