Ciara has to go to the bathroom. Has anyone ever had to do that on this show?
There was that bathroom that magically appeared in Rafe's Hospital Room (where there's been none before or ever since), so that Sami could be in the room to see Bernardi try to kill Rafe.

What happened to EM's face in that location shoot? I didn't see these cuts in the scenes shot in the studio. Is it because of the light?

I'm not impressed with Missy's take on playing a character that is high on drugs. I shouldn't need to rely on Eric saying she is, and the recap to know that she is ..

Eric numbs himself with alcohol, then shows up at Jennifer's to find her equally smashed on pain meds.

Greg on the other hand played it perfectly.

Also, I am surprised at everyone's reaction to Brady's location shots...To me, it smacked of EM walking on a soundstage covered with sand toward a "green screen." It looked so fake to me!
Was there a soundstage? I didn't see it.
I did get a "green screen" vibe for that certain moment you are talking about. Perhaps there were some regular folks in the water, so they decided to use a green screen for that certain shot (afterwards, as an insert). But, other than that one moment, the rest of it looked like a real beach on location.

I agree! I'm not even one that hates Jennifer with Eric right now so I feel like I can say this without any fanbase bias. I don't think MR is doing a good job of selling Jennifer as an addict. It wouldn't make sense for Nicole of course at this point, but if it was reversed and Nicole was the one hooked on pain meds I'm pretty sure we'd be seeing something pretty fabulous. Greg is absolutely selling it at this point and he's just taking Jennifer along for the ride.

This really is just Thrady 2.0 just in a little different incarnation. But if EM had the chops that GV has I might have been sold much more on Thrady when they were doing drugs together.

She didn't look high to me too. But I didn't expect anything extreme.
Not everyone expriences euphoric response to opioid medications.

Btw is she dependent on it or addicted to it?

I don't dislike Jennifer and I don't consider my feelings on her acting to be biased whatsoever.

It's Jeneric going sexual that I'm not crazy about.

Missy is just not selling me on her character being high, most of the time.

Eric on the other hand was totally wasted.

I thought the same thing about Jeneric being similar to Thrady.

I didn't even think of Thrady. I'm still not sure that Eric is really an alcoholic or that Jen really doesn't need her pills anymore and is taking them to feel euphoric.

No but going by the recaps I think we were supposed to see her looking noticeably high ..

to find her equally smashed on pain meds.


So that I didn't makes me think it's more an acting choice.

I think she's dependent on it at this point?

It actually depends on when they wrote the summary . If they did it after it had been taped whoever wrote the summary probably exaggerated it a little bit.

Total character annihilation for Rafe.
Yep. That's why I was relieved to hear Hope tell him to not be too cocky. Anvil for it's gonna blow up in our faces.

Back then, even Brady and Theresa didn't looked or acted like they were stoned except through their dialogue saying that they just got wasted.

I was really just trying to agree with you. Hopefully it didn't come across a way I didn't intend.

I'm in complete agreement about Eric. He's not an alcoholic. He's using the alcohol to mask the pain and to try to destroy himself. I'm convinced of that no matter what is written. If he were a true addict we should have seen that the multiple times he had a beer or glass of wine and we didn't.
