I just checked. Voldemort quotes Thaao as saying:
"Some of the things that Chase will do leaves even Andre in shock"

was this an article online

"Voldemort" is a way of saying "the magazine that shall not be named", due to copyright problems.
This was in the issue available in stores in the USA on Friday Feb 5th.

It is in this tweet.
https://twitter.com/kristy_grenier/status/695483706451095552
The first image in the tweet.
If you cannot see the whole image inside the tweet frame, here is the tweet image url:
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CabavQXW8AAvMlX.jpg
this all of a sudden came to me so the particular poster who was confused about Voldemort...don't feel bad.

It's of course in Reference to Harry Potter and Voldemort for several books/movies was called "He who must not be named" and moving on..

I remember on one of those cast photos in the pub, Ciara had pink streaks in her hair. At the time everyone was assuming that she was acting out because of Bo's death but now we know. Seems obvious that she's going to keep this a secret and end up acting out.
where can i find these photos

I am curious also. I would like to see the photos. Does anyone have a link?
On set cake pic group shot from November.
do have a link
when will those scenes air april or may

Quoting limited to 3 levels deep
Obviously this is a delicate subject and I am going to just respectfully disagree with you about what happened with Steve/Ava...as a guy I just don't know how you could physically get it up in a situation like this WITHOUT the use of a drug of some sort....had they thrown that bit in (like they did with Eric and Austin rapes), it would have felt more like a total violation and would have sold the story and redemption a lot easier...I think the show left that part out on purpose to make this a REAL obstacle for Stayla (which I fucking hate)...this whole thing is pure garbage and I hope they just play this out quick so we can move on.
That's like saying it isn't rape if a woman has an orgasm. It just doesn't work that way. Your body has a physical reaction to certain physical stimuli. Biology will out. Plus in this particular instance, Steve is particularly invested in getting it up, because if he doesn't? His wife dies. He has to get it up.
You know since I have had time to sit back and read these interpretations I can certainly see now where I was wrong in my assessment of what happened in these scenes....it certainly is more complicated when it is a man getting raped by a woman.

I would never classify a woman having an orgasm during rape as reason to discredit her or deny the rape occurred....and I fully understand how that is an uncontrolled physical response during an unimaginable situation.

I guess I can understand how Steve would have gotten it up due to physical stimulation....I guess I was more looking at it from the emotional/psychological side only when making my claim.

How cute. So the first story Griffith does after his return is a teen rape? I think you are all wrong thinking Higley was forced out. I think she just said "whatever" and went on her full paid LOA letting Griffith to dig himself in. Except his S/K obsession he seems to have very little idea what stories on DAYS works. Teen rapes certainly donīt.

Anyway, I have no idea what is the purpose of this. Chase is a recurring role with zero ties in Salem. Nobody will care if he eventually ends in the psych ward or dead as his father. From the first moment I felt they are styling him as those weird loner kids who are future serial killers, but I thought the purpose is use the sweet optimistic Claire as the bright light who pulls him out and saves him. I even think thatīs what Higley hinted she wants to do. The teen scene has been given very little so far, but I generally liked the dynamics. Claire as the ever eager Belle junior, Theo as the sweet awkward boy, Chase as the brooding loner and Ciara as the former good girl whos world is turning upside down and she starts acting out. It had potential.

The bullying was stupid teen thing Ciara could eventually forgive, but there is no way they can ever go back from this. Griffith will scare Ciara forever and use Chase and then discard him exactly as his father.

Jason47's most recent tape-to-airdate estimate:
http://daytimeroyaltyonline.com/single/?p=9499127&t=9271561

According to Jason's estimate, anything filmed around Nov 9th would be airing in late April (approximately).

But ... we still don't know when Ciara first *starts* dying her hair. It could be at any time. There haven't been that many behind-the-scenes photos released.

So we know we will see her that way in late April, but it could *possibly* start sooner. It's unknown.

It almost looks like someone is behind her LOL. Is it a hairpiece/clip-on?

Here is that section of the large photo -- I think it is just her hair

But it's a clip-on, not the actual hair of the actress, isn't it?

Oh, yeah the hair/makeup team may have clipped on the pink ponytail, but I'm sure it's supposed to appear to viewers as being Ciara's real hair.
That photo was from Mon Nov 9th.

She didn't have any light or colored streaks at the Days50 party two days before Sat Nov 7th.

How old was Sami when she was raped by Alan? If the story is well-written and well-acted, it can work.

My problem is that I don't feel that they have developed Ciara's and Chase's relationship enough. We haven't really seen Chase show much of a dark side yet, so I fear whatever happens this week is going to feel like it came out of the blue. That seems like a mistake to me and consistent with the writing staff repeatedly failing to let beats play out. The show has just started showing Andre influencing Chase. Why not let that play out a bit more before anything happens between Chase and Ciara? If we saw Andre using Chase to torment Hope and Rafe, while explaining that it is important to get what you want in life, there could be a logical progression to the story. Chase's actions would be reprehensible, but there would be context. Then there might be room to work with Chase's character after a rape.

Sami was 16-17, I believe.

The issue this next story will have/does have IS the writer changes. We have two writers who seem to be exchanging writing the show for X amount of weeks each AND who don't seem to be respecting the other ones story out line when they're in the drivers seat. I'm not sure if this will be an ongoing thing or something that is done after this initial back and forth.

This story makes sense for what Josh was starting in November/early December/this past week BUT not for the time that existed in the middle that Dena most likely wrote. For a lot of people this story is understandably going to be too abrupt. I'm not sure why Josh didn't have a little more patience in making the switch back to the dark stuff. Especially with what Chase is going to do there should have been a little more build up after Dena's pregnant pause on Josh's writing.

Sami was 16 I think. Same age as Ciara is now.

I agree the Chase and Ciara relationship could have and should have been developed more, but this really isn't coming out of the blue for me.

Exactly! It looks like both Josh and Dena had their 13-week cycles of writing. Now the third 13-week cycle is about to begin (if I'm not mistaken it has to be February 17 or so).

I'm not sure but I think one of the reasons why they wanted to start this dark story now might have been because it's Sweeps and they probably saw their other stories were not compelling enough.

Whoever from NBC or Corday Prod. was watching their tapes probably noticed that Dena and Josh weren't competent enough to continue each other stories. And this led to Dena's LOA.

Thank you JCP.

Every month for me, it is always waiting for the next month for something to happen. I wish they would put John's story front and center and get on with him taking out the bad guys at the academy where they trained him.

Instead of continuing with any of the momentum Josh built, she came in and either dropped things entirely (like BlackPatch) or changed directions (Chad's brainwashing). And now he's on his way back in control and seems to be changing directions again. Between the edits and some things that seem to be added in after the fact. I defintiely think this Ciara story is Josh, I think he changed directions with Ava, I think he sprinkled in the John and Marlena stuff with his past since Higley ignored them, I also think he changed course on Brady Theresa Nicole.

I think March is going to look a lot different.

Yea that has to get going in March based on what we know from IMDB and the pics Deidre posted.

I'm okay with waiting if it means Josh wrote it. I'm convinced Higley would have had him turn back into an assassin and forget Marlena

Oh, BTW didn't Corday say they were planning to do 13-week arcs (telenovela style) 2-3 years ago? What we now see might have been their experiment to put this idea into practice.
