This age mucking around with is one thing which did not just start with last few regimes. I remember in 80s wondering how old Tom and Alice must be given ages of David and Scotty at various times. I know Julie had David early but some of it was just crazy. Tom and Alice would have needed to be 100 when they were in their 70s. Also Hope and Meilissa's ages were reversed in 80s when Meilissa had been born several years before on screen.

I'm not a die hard Chabby fan but their scenes today were very sweet. :wub:

I'm 50/50 on Chad not giving Thomas the DiMera last name. Yes, I understand that he doesn't want Thomas associated with that name but Chad is still his father and maybe this way make a new and fresh start for the DiMera name. But it was still a sweet scene.

The Ben peeping in the window was well played. I do think it is just her imagination. But I still do wonder if Ben is somewhere in that house?

I liked the scene between Gabi and Chad. I wasn't expecting it. I hope they keep the friendship between Gabi, Chad and Abby.

I just wonder if Chase is going to end up getting out? Because I can't see him staying in jail since I haven't heard that the actor is leaving.

I was definitely happy to finally see Lucas. :wub: :D I really wish they would give BD a contract and story of his own.

Not that this is important but I opened a Days file today and saw that the person's who was making death threats aimed at JG (and other Days accounts) on Twitter nickname was Jigsaw Jason. Kind of weird.

Chad is supposed to be two years older than Will. Not that that really helps.
I don't remember when this originally aired (maybe when Chad was introduced?), but several months ago, someone had a screen cap from a scene with Chad's birth certificate, which showed Chad as being born in 1990. So, with the erroneous 2016 date, 26 actually fits.

And then, of course, if you ignore SORASing, 24 is how old Abby should be (in October) if she was born in 1992.
Yeah, Chad's age doesn't bother me. Abby's does, but I think it's the age they've been going for for a while.

When Chad was introduced, he was a grade a head of Will in school, then we he found out he was Stefano's son, it was revealed that he was a year older.

Thank you JCP.

My guess and only my guess, is that when they knew for sure that K.M. was leaving, that the writers mind set was on her exit story and not so much the wedding.

They needed to start setting up the PTSD story after the second dealing with Ben is over. If they are wanting a Abby recast to start taping in April, that would only leave about two months before new Abby airs. With K.M being so popular, they better take their time with this and not shove a new actress out there so soon and expect to be accepted so quickly. :hh:

I don't think the writers took KM into account with the wedding but that's only my opinion. They usually don't set up exits that far in advance.

KM left in December, so I think it's more than 2 months before a new Abby would air. I was thinking KM would leave end of May/beg. of June and the new Abby would show up in October, but maybe I have the filming schedule wrong in my head.

They were originally looking for actress to start in December. They are definitely taking their time as this is the 3rd casting call that went out.

KM stops airing in May (according to her FB chat), and the stuff they tape at the end of April is probably for the end of September/early October. So, I think she should be off air closer to four or five months.

Even though they knew she was leaving, I don't think that's any excuse for them to half-ass parts of the wedding. They've been taking a lot of shortcuts with other stories, too (i.e. Ciara's rape), so I think the wedding is just kind of par for the course.

I thought this episode was pretty boring which was quite an accomplishment for an episode with a shoot-out and a wedding.

I thought the last set of scenes were decent enough.

Father Jigsaw & Son John. They do look alike. Jigsaw is really bringing the creepy vibe. I liked this in terms of cliff-hanger.

It was sweet of Eduardo to take a bullet for Rafe, I guess.

I like the way they're pacing Jennifer's drug addiction but the Eric/Jennifer angle of this is starting to annoy me. It's not paced that well from the Eric angle.

The look of love on Chad's face with Abigail walking down the aisle was PRECIOUS. BF really does that well. [Side-note: Theo/Chad teaming up at HTS was kind of super cute]. Everything here was sweet but eh. I thought the Ben sighting was definitely a figment of Abigail's imagination but maybe it was meant to make you think that and it'll end up being a real sighting.

Nice tension in the Hope & Chase scene but I feel like the writers could have done more easily with some effort. That goes for this entire story so far. Eh.

Back to not really feeling Ciara, Ciara/Theo after practically swooning yesterday. Eh.

I feel like it's kind of dumb of Hope to have this conversation with Chase, alerting him to what he COULD do.
I was expecting her to give Chase a pen and paper to write out his confession on but to just ask him was goofy.

Is John speaking English?
This isn`t the first time I`ve had trouble understanding him.

I thought it was just me maybe since I can understand Roman when others can`t.

The birth certificate thing is sweet, but can the father do that on his own? This is like the 4th time it's happened on Days, but I'm just curious.
I honesty don't think they can now, but a million years ago while my mom was still in the hospital my dad went to a lawyer and had my name legally changed to his last name... (my parents weren't married and the default name was my mother's ex-husband) but he didn't have his name put on my birth certificate as father... so some RANDOM dude went to a lawyer and had my name legally changed... I mean biologically he's my dad and my parents agreed I should have his last name... but without taking any legal responsibility for me the man changed my name.

He totally felt guilty about not putting his name on my birth certificate and typed it in... on a typewriter... True story. Did I mention I'm old? He confessed to my mom about 6 months before he died but she thought he was joking... which is the sort of joke he'd tell. All he woudl have had to do was walk into the county clerk's office and say, "I'm this kid's father and I'd like that to be noted on her birth certificate."

What I have to do to fix it? Whole other thing (despite the fact that he signed up for my social security card and my first passport... him... so legal government documents exist with his signature as my father)

Chad couldn't possibly do it now, though. So we'll just say he used an old Delorean.... or my dad's typewriter.

Abe should have been there.
Yep. My mom said the guest list was shameful lol
I kind of figured the reason there were so few guests is because it was rather short notice for people.

I don't know. These weddings in Salem have been known to be last minute affairs. I think it was just crappy so many people missed it

That's true. Most marriages/weddings in Salem happen as spare of the moment thing. Every wedding/attempted wedding Jarlena ever had was planned a few days beforehand.
