Someone on Twitter said John is wearing his wedding ring today. Which I kind of love. Because Marlena will see it when she rescues him

Well, you know, Dr. Dan isn't there anymore. :rolleyes:
This is where they needed Kayla. But of course, she's stuck in that damn shrine with Steve. :rolleyes:

I just don't really get the point of writing this story if you're not going to play out all the beats with care.
I'm not sure that actually seeing the hospital scenes is a necessary beat. The important beat is that she needed to get examined and tested, not the scenes themselves - IMO. The fact that she and Hope talk about that, and about the fact she'll have to be re-tested is making sure that beat is covered.

It's not that I'm opposed to a good scene between Kayla and Ciara about that, it's just that I don't think it's a necessary beat to play.

Thanks to Rubble, too, who gave us the extra-early scoop on Chase's arrest. I guess you heard from a TV channel in one of the cities airing the show extra-early before the March Madness basketball.
Days came on early yesterday and today because of basketball. It comes back on at 1 tomorrow.

I disagree. Considering how so many victims don't get checked out or tested, I think it's important to show if you want to do the story with some responsibility. Especially if you're partnering with RAINN for this. A few throwaway lines is pretty weak storytelling, IMO.

I agree it's important, but I don't think it's a throwaway line. It was addressed in Ciara and Claire's conversation as well as this conversation with Hope. I just don't know what showing Ciara at the hospital - even with Kayla - does that talking about it doesn't. I mean, they aren't going to show a rape exam. And they'd have Kayla having the same conversation that Hope just did.

To me, the important part is that it was talked about and Ciara was tested. Seeing the tests done just doesn't add anything to that for me.

I missed the first half of the episode, just tuning in now, surprised Hope is already here.

I know more violence is not necessary, but I kind of wanted Hope to slap Chase.

I'm glad that Hope and the other teens are involved, but I would like more reactions like Shawn's.

Thank you JCP.

On the news recently, there was an item that said something about a man being up on charges of rape first degree and first degree burglary. I didn't know there were different degrees of rape charges.

If there isn't a Ciara and Shawn scene soon, I'm going to lose it.

I think Claire referred to Hope as Ciara's mom again. They are really bad about that grandparent relationship.

I'm pretty glad they asked for proof of life before drinking whatever is in that thermos or doing anything else

Ciara and Theo could be the next Chabby within a few years. (acting still needs improve a great deal though)
