Half Halt


LB's Ciara would have kneed Chase. JM is the best teen actor. Way to go writers! :rolleyes:

Steve should have fessed up to sweetness as soon as he returned....

Total team Hope and Rafe here. Stefano needed killin' decades ago. Andre needs to take a permanent dirt nap, too. What a creepy fucker with Chase. Wouldn't put it past him to drug Chase. Andre needs to die already. Him and that fucking gash on his face need to go!

I just started watching the episode, but is Belle supposed to be having a midlife crisis or on her way to having a breakdown? She's acting so bizarre to Claire. She knows that she inexplicably has a crazy amount of money. Why is her first reaction be so angry that Claire would be confused by her talking about them flying away for a shopping spree?

The writing for her is so all over the place and makes her look really irrationally angry right now. I would be all for her with a side of sass, but this is too extreme. I'm hoping Josh and Beth tone it down a notch...
Claire, more or less, called her mother a whore screwing around for money.

I bought Belle flipping a little even if it was understandable for Claire to question the money.

I found the writing for Belle today to be a lot better than it has been. She broke a little and definitely seemed more human.

The video Ava was looking at was a lot more graphic than what aired. You can see her taking his belt off even.

Thank you JCP.

If Stefano was still around, I would say that he has been doing things to some of the characters in Salem. Belle grew up in a wealthy family, she is acting like she never had any kind of money before. Granted, what Sami left her is a lot but still.

Also. Chase has been my least favorite of the teens all along. He seems more Disney extra than soap actor.

So John clearly knows Andre didn't take the money. Watch that exonerates him somehow and it comes out J&M and Belle all know the truth about the money.
The Dimera family might be able to get all of Salem in jail for a hot minute there, lol.

Rafe Roman is asking questions because it's a stupid story you two made up not because he's a good cop


The plan was pretty good, IMO, aside from R & H being a little too heavy handed. If I didn't see what happened, Andre would have been the first one I suspected of murdering Stefano. The risk comes with bringing that gun into play, but that's more ballsy than outright stupid.
LOL they certainly won't find Sami to charge her but even I have to say Roman would be pretty ticked to find out John, Marlena and Belle all know Sami took the DiMera money and fled the country

I guess it's the writing for Belle these past few weeks that makes it harder for me to perceive that as Claire being rude versus making a guess that wasn't really that outlandish. I just wish Belle could see Claire's perspective a bit more rather than reacting on the whim.

I think she was portrayed slightly better as the episode went on, in terms of not slapping Claire and telling her the (somewhat) truth.

I also absolutely LOVE Claire and Shawn right now, so seeing them in some family scenes about the situation made me really happy. I'm looking forward to seeing one lighthearted scene of all of them together at some point.

I agree.

Layers are slowly creeping back into the characterizations for the time being.

Not cut as much as saved them for this part of the story? Steve's really heavy aggressiveness in those scenes? I wonder why they went with that angle. Seeing it makes me feel somewhat sympathetic to the rapist so I have to guess that is part of the reason.

Thank you JCP.

When Kayla and Steve told Roman what happened, why didn't he ask Steve why he didn't call the cops in to help look for Kayla.

Did I miss it with Kayla, why didn't she ask Steve why he didn't call Roman when she was kidnapped?

Good point. He didn't even react that no one called the cops when Kayla was missing.

There's ain't ever a right time or a good reason for implying your mother is basically a prostitute.

Props to Belle for not hitting her.

I'm surprised to be liking this Shawn. He's a little bland/generic but nice scenes with Hope and Claire.

The only story that gives me pause about such a move is Dan. I need him to stay dead somehow. :P
He can die of a heart attack from one last romp with Chloe on his way out...

Did anyone that actually watched the show think Andre sent Chase on a mission to rape Ciara? I'm so confused by this line of thinking. I really didn't even get the implications. Although he was creepy as all hell and putting dark thoughts in Chase's head. I think it was more about trying to blow up Hope's family than any exact outcome like that.

No I don't believe Andre sent Chase to rape Ciara. But I don't believe he will care when he finds out.

Yeah, I don't expect him to weep for her. He's a villain so I don't know how I want him to react. I do hope he doesn't do any gloating about it though. That's really all I ask from his reaction. Even a shrug would be fine.

I think her guess was within reason. But you still don't call your mother a whore. Even if it's true.

It was a pretty great guess, BUT she knew about the DiMera money so it's a pretty bad sign that her first thought was Belle whoring herself out. I did love those scenes.
