I would never assume how long any poster on here has been watching the show, but this is not the first time Roman/Hope/Rafe/Bo have used being on the police force to their advantage...they haven't been straight, by the book cops in a very, very long time. |

I get the point, I do. But what justice is served by putting Joe in jail? Is it really justice given what Ava did to his family without repercussions. Is it better that a teenager basically have his life ruined? I very much hope they deal with the impact this all has on Joey, through therapy or something. But I'm not sure this is a situation where Justice is truly served by sending him to prison. |

It doesn't have to be prison. As long as it is SOMETHING and he doesn't get off without any consequences. Maybe a few months in a psyche ward or something. |

I'm not, because it shows that 1) Joey has the right instincts at heart and 2) Steve hasn't changed one bit since 1987 when he did the same thing in the Adrienne story. He blames himself for Ava's trail of destruction because he brought her into their lives. He's not right but it's totally in character. Oh, and I thought Joey seemed much more like he experienced some kind of break today. |

Both of these stories have been horrible from the beginning and I don't think you are supposed to get any "message" from them. The only story I see right now that they might even be trying to get a message across in is the rape, but we will have to wait and see on that one too. |

IMO this episode was the best out of this week. Even though I love Nicole I definitely need her away from Dummer and Thrady. I bet Caroline will be moving back into the mansion after the Deimos run in. I wonder if that was Deimos calling Hope at the end? So now Roman knows and it quiet alright with it. SMH I'm glad Ava is dead. I wonder though what will happen when the truth comes out that it was really Joey who killed her? |

I wouldn't mind if he gets sent to a psyche ward since it does look like something is happening today. |

Also, I'll never be a real fan of her acting, but kudos to TB for making the most of a character death that didn't end up having a lot of material in it for her. |

I've had my fair share of gripes here and there about these stories because I think they've been badly plotted. But, on based on the principles of soap opera: I don't really understand the sudden moral outrage over people not being punished for killing villains. Soaps have been pulling that for decades. It's not new in the slightest. The only reason the Hope story ticks me off a bit is because of the coverup. Without that, I'm fine with Hope killing him (although I wish it would have been J/M). I thought the Joey thing was a bit extreme, but JLa stepped up today, and the Steve bit was classic soap, so I'm willing to go with it. |

I just had a horrible thought: what if Ava isn't dead after all and this is another plot of hers? We know Dena is coming back and she LOVES Ava so I wouldn't put it past her to try something like that. |

I've been watching since the 70's, and I don't recall a cop killing someone and framing another for the murder with the help of two other cops. I'm not as well-versed on recent years, but in the past, even when they had to arrest family, they did even if reluctantly. They may have given them as much leeway as possible, but they still upheld the law. The only obvious instance of not upholding the law that I can recall, is our buddy Rafe. This seems to be common for him. I guess he should be made commissioner, he's so good at lying and doing whatever he wants. At least Steve shouldn't worry. This new brand of police justice should let him off. I'm sure Roman will figure out a way to frame the murder on someone else for Kayla. |

That was well done, I agree. I always think it's harder to portray a dead person with your eyes open, but she pulled it off well. |

My outrage which I just realized now isn't so much that Joey won't be punished or held accountable, but that he wants to confess and his parents won't let him. We know the truth will come out eventually. There is a reason we saw blood on the pillow and his bandage on the floor. |

People telling others to stay mum when they want to confess isn't new either. I've seen it many times on soaps. Doesn't really bother me. :shrug: |

Not if they try to actively stop him like with what Sonny and Carly did to Michael on GH regarding Claudia's death. Actually, I wouldn't mind seeing them do another prison story. Not for Hope mind you. |

Parents taking the blame to "save" their children isn't new to soaps and definitely isn't new to Days, actually it can be expected. |

Well they set it up that the truth about Joey murdering Ava will come out soon enough. We'll see what happens then. |

I enjoyed Justin showing up at the mansion to see Victor. Nice seeing the groundwork being laid for Sonny's possible return. |
