While ultimately I'm a phloe I don't mind Philip's obsession with Belle too much because it's been consistent since the mid 2000s. I also remember that Philip had big crush on Belle back when the teens were first aged in 99 and before he fell for Chloe.

So Claire is driving and has a car as well, I wonder if she has been aged to 17-18 too.

Paul is never on and when he is, his scenes are random and irrelevant.
:flipoff: Josh, Dena, Beth, whoever writes this shit.
He really should've been written out back after Will died and Sonny left. They wasted a lot of money on his guarantee, by paying him to not have to work.
Yeah, I kind of feel like part of the reason they kept him was just so they didn't get rid of all their LGBT characters at once. I know that sounds bad, but I could see it happening.

At the very least, they could have bumped him to recurring and probably saved a few bucks.
They could have lost CS if they dropped him to recurring: he could have refused to return or get a contract role elsewhere that wouldn't have allowed him to continue on Days. I hope they kept him because they had plans for Paul down the road but honestly the way he's been treated, I think they were forced to keep him. The show already looked bad for what they did to Will. It would have been worse if they got rid of Paul too.

I hate to say this but I kind of felt for Ava when Joey strangled her, I guess it's because I love TB.

Oh boy :drunk: :drunk: Why are they in such a rush to age them?? Maybe it makes more sense because of the dark stories teens are experiencing. Claire should not be 17/18.

Next we'll hear Belle say she got pregnant in High School or something equally ridiculous!!

I think I should feel more ambivalent about Joey killing Ava than I do. :wave:
I do too, and then I remember that that horrible woman is the same one who sabotaged the plane that killed his grandpa Shawn. (Although he doesn't know that little tidbit yet.)

That was an unexpected twist with Paul and Henry(?) near the end.

I was thinking how that Last Blast group of teens were so different.
A few of them did creepy things to Chloe.
But that got turned around at the end.

IMDB shows a prom coming in April 2016.
I wonder how that will go ...
Well figuring out the prom dates could be difficult. I surely don't want the rapist to have a date and don't know if Joey will be over his upcoming drama by then or if Jade will still be around. So the only couple I could see going together would be Theo & Ciara! They really need to bring on another male teen for Claire.
I certainly wouldn't think the obvious teen murderer would be deserving of a date either. Who knows what could happen by that time but if a cold blooded murderer can be redeemed certainly there is hope for Chase. Chase is a traumatized kid with a psychopath manipulating him. What's Joey's excuse?
Chase has no excuse. He raped Ciara all on his own.

Joey is responsible for his actions too, but he is drunk and who knows what drugs he took.

Ok, I'm done with the two rape flashbacks. I can go without seeing either one again.

So sweet of Theo to text Ciara to see how she's doing?

Seriously, what does one thing have to do with the other? Joey killing Ava doesn't make Chase suddenly a good guy for raping Ciara. And Chase raping Ciara doesn't make Joey right for killing Ava.

And I guess if Andre manipulating Chase gives him an out, then everything Ava did to Joey and his family gives him an out. Or, maybe, neither of them deserve an out and it's crappy writing.

This was not a turn I wanted. It doesn't seems like there's a twist either.
Nope. Unless it's going to be some kind of hallucination because Joey was drugged, I don't see a twist coming. And that disappoints me quite a bit.
I would definitely prefer a twist... Killing her is way over the line, but the consequence of the cartoonish way she's been written is that I don't really mind a cartoon ending. IDK. I think my real concern is that they show the impact that it should have on Joey.

Oh, I agree with that. It's hard to have a lot of sympathy when they've gone out of their way to make the woman entirely unsympathetic. And I hope they play out the beat of how that affects Joey as well. It needs to have some long-lasting consequences.

Joey is home drunk talking to Steve. He hates Ava
Joey had been drinking at the party and he and Jade left. Then Joey went home and before going inside he took some pills. After Steve told him what happened that day (with A) Joey was upset.

I know others have pointed this out throughout the week, but where the heck is Jennifer and Eric especially since we've seen Hope and Ciara and even Rafe in the Horton house since the drink incident. Looks like Eric is getting Will's exit. He won't be onscreen until the week he exits.

How did Joey get away from Steve? Or was that not shown?

I don't understand why Belle would think that Claire would be excited about her buying a nightclub?!?

And an adult drink for Claire? Did she age too?! She still looks like she's 16!

Ok I get the writing for Belle is very uneven. But it seems like they're trying to write a similar story to the Roman John Marlena Sami story. Belle is trying to do what she thinks is right for Claire but is drawn to Philip. It's not nearly as well done but it's the same struggle her mother had. And the reason she even exists
but the thing is the chemistry between JPL and MM doesn't support the this type of story, the chemistry between two DHs was just overpowering that's why viewers didn't care that John wasn't the real Roman, they still wanted RoJohn/Marlena together.
Speak for yourself.

There are still a few out there who wanted Marlena to go back to Roman.
