A Constitutional Right To Be An Idiot
The bailiff hands Judge Davis a folder as we pan back to Bo and Carly sitting in the back of the courtroom. Bo leans over to her, "It means a lot to me that you are here."
Carly whispers, "It means a lot to me that you remembered I'm alive after your blithering Hopefest up on the stand, but I know how hard this is for you." Bo says he's worried Baker will get less time than Hope.
The prosecution rests. The defense calls Hope to the stand. A guard escorts Hope into the courtroom looking like she's already been in prison for years... scraggly clothes, disheveled hair, a grim look on her face and a three day growth of beard. she gives Baker a dirty look (which with Hope is redundant) and then she and Bo stare at each other.
Vivian tells Gus about the pink pillow she ordered that will clash with Maggie's red hair for eternity. Gus thinks she'd better make sure Victor doesn't find out what she's doing. Vivian bets Victor will forget Maggie ever existed once she is gone.
Nicole staggers at the dock, "I'm still alive. That must mean EJ doesn't know I ratted him out yet. When he does find out I'll be swimming with the fishes." I think she means sleeping with the fishes unless she's planning to be a porpoise rider at Sea World.
EJ claims the CD was manufactured. Sami asks Rafe to play the it. EJ begs her not to do this. "I have to," says Sami.
Kate and Stefano are at the pub with Sydney. Stefano is grumpy. Kate is curious. Sydney wishes she were off playing in traffic with the other kids. Stefano says he really doesn't know what's going on, "But I sure as hell am going to find out."
Sami says EJ can't spend the rest of his life with this hanging over his head, "If it's a fraud, I'll know it."
EJ gets nasty, "I won't allow it!"
"OK," says Sami, "It's your house, but you know I'm not marrying you until I hear it." EJ sulks off.
Roman comes back in the courtroom as Hope takes the stand. Bo thinks Hope can't take this. The defense attorney grills her. He establishes that Bo, her husband, let her take the case. He also establishes Roman is her brother-in-law, and that both of them were among her victims. Bo stops him when he gets out a rubber hose, "That's enough! You gotta stop. She's suffered enough."
"Mind your own #&@*# ^$*#&@^$ business," says Melanie. She tells Maggie she's trying to learn to knit, "It's harder than I thought it would be. But I'm kind of into the family thing." She drops another stitch, "OH DAMN!" I wonder if there has ever been a case of someone knitting her lips shut?
Stefano don' wanna talk about the wedding. Kate changes the subject to Will. Stefano is unresponsive. Kate gives up, "Maybe we'll just sit here until the chowdah kicks in and we die."
Rafe plays the recording. EJ shuts it off, "I can't let you listen to another word."
The judge tells Bo to shut his yap. Cheers fill the audience. Bo sits. The attorney for the defense asks if Hope thinks she did a good job. "No," says Hope.
"Did you work up a profile on the perpetrator?"
"Yes." The defense attorney has her read the highlighted portion. Hope complies, "The perpetrator would seem to be fueled by rage. The violence seems personal rather than mercenary."
the attorney asks, "Did you think the perp was mentally stable?"
"No."
"Is she presently mentally stable?"
"I don't know."
"Should we take evidence compiled by a crazy woman to put an innocent man away," he asks. Baker tries to stop him but the attorney sits him down. He asks if Hope remembers Baker committing any crime.
"No." Baker stands up and fires his attorney. The attorney tells him to shut up.
Baker turns to the judge, "The trial is over. I plead guilty."
The attorney turns around, "Not a good idea, doc."
"Let her go," says Baker, "She can't take it. Don't do this to her."
Gloomy Gus tells Vivian she has a lot riding on this. He wonders if someone will notice Maggie is missing. "No," says Vivian, "They'll just notice Salem is a lot quieter place. I've thought this out. Do you think I'm an idiot?"
Gus gets sarcastic, "No, I think this plan is just ducky. It worked so well last time."
"Maggie Horton will erase all suspicion that she's gone," says Vivian.
Maggie finishes washing Melanie's potty mouth out with soap, "It means a lot to have you and Phillip here, but it shouldn't be permanent."
"We're not going anywhere," says Melanie.
"Maybe I am," says Maggie, "I've been thinking. In spite of that I've had an idea. Maybe it's time for me to leave Salem."
Melanie says, "That's certainly the way everyone in Salem feels."
Kate decides to call the mansion. Stefano doesn't want her to. He starts to go out for air. Nicole comes in and sees Stef 'n Ho, "OH, DAMN IT!" Man, this episode will be banned in every truckstop and drunken sailor bar in the country.
EJ begs, "Don't let him do this to us, Samantha. Don't. Don't let him do this to us." Sami wants to hear the tape.
Baker confesses to his crimes and says there were times Hope didn't know what she was doing. The judge reminds Baker he's on trial, not Hope. Baker says he just wants to get it over with.
Baker's attorney chimes in, "This is against advice, your honor."
Judge Davis says, "He has a constitutional right to be an idiot."
"I'm guilty," says Baker. He turns to Bo, "But I'm not the only one."
Maggie says she just feels she has to be by herself. She's going to visit her daughters and take that cruise she and Mickey had planned.
Melanie cuts to the chase, "What about ME?"
"You can make it without me," says Maggie.
Melanie pouts, "I will miss you a lot, but I hope you have fun. By the way, can I have the recipe for that soap?"
Vivian tells Gus not to go overboard with the tip when the sarcophagus is delivered, "I will be off luring that redheaded mummy to her final resting place."
Nicole ignores Stefano and Kate and looks at Sydney, "She's grown so much." Kate asks Stefano to do that little thing he does to make people disappear. Nicole says she heard about the wedding and wonders why they are there.
Sami listens to the CD. Remember that lava dome that built up inside Mt. St. Helens right before it blew the state of Washington off the map? That's nothing compared to the way Sami's anger is building up. She shuts off the recorder and turns to EJ, "You did it... You did it." A single tear runs down her face.
Judge Davis accepts Baker's plea and has him returned to his cell. They drag Baker off. As he leaves he turns, "Hope... I..." Off he goes.
The cop tells Roman the prison transport won't be there for a while and Roman volunteers to babysit Hope until it arrives. Roman asks Hope how she's doing. Hope stares, "I'm fine." Translation: she's a wreck.
Carly leaves to check in at the hospital. Roman tells Bo Hope has to wait for the transport. Bo says he'll stay with her. Roman leaves. You can only babysit Hope for so long until it gets to you. Bo says, "I'm sorry. I should have seen this coming... warned you."
"You have to stop looking after me."
"Baker was right," says Bo, "He was right about me."
Nicole wonders if something happened at the wedding.
"Not really," says Stefano, "They've been dragging it all out for what seems like weeks. But you seem to have the inside info, you tell us."
"I hope Rafe didn't do anything rash," says Nicole.
"He gives everyone a rash," says Stefano, "But what could he do?"
Sami asks how EJ could do this. EJ continues to bob and weave, "He dummied the CD."
"He may be a dummy but the CD is real," says Sami.
"If I made it up," says Rafe, "Why did you pay Nicole five million dollars to keep it quiet?"
"I did that to keep that filth from Samantha," insists EJ.
Sami knows. EJ stammers. Sami asks Rafe to go. "Come with me," says Rafe.
"No."
Rafe says, "We'll take the CD to your father."
EJ says, "It isn't admissible."
Rafe blows his stack, "That's all you have to say for yourself? That's all you're worried about isn't it? That you might have to pay." Sami backs Rafe off and asks him to go. "I'm sorry you had to go through all this," says Rafe. He takes the CD and leaves.
EJ babbles, "Samantha... I..."
Sami gives him her death-ray stare, "Just... be honest with me. Look me in the eye and tell me you took Sydney from me."
EJ is busted, "Yes. I took Sydney."
Hope wonders what will happen to Baker. The transport arrives. "Baker doesn't know the real you," says Bo, "That's not who you are."
"You keep that thought," says Hope. The guard takes her off. Bo stares.
Carly is back at the hospital. Melanie runs up and asks her if she knits. "No," says Carly, "but I can swear like a longshoreman."
"I suck at it so I wondered if it was genetic," says Melanie.
"You suck at swearing," asks Carly.
"$#&@ No," says Melanie, "I'm good at that. It's knitting I suck at."
"I'm not much of a domestic goddess," says Carly, "I can tune an engine though."
"You've certainly been tuning Bo's engine lately," says Melanie, "Uh... Mom..."
"I love hearing you say that," says Carly, "It's nice to know you can actually start a sentence without a four-letter word."
"When you walked in you looked awful," says Melanie.
Carly tells her about going to the trial and what happened, "It was like kicking Hope when she's down. God, it felt great. And you know Bo... he can't stand seeing a woman dressed... uh... I mean in distress."
Stefano takes Nicole aside and wants to know why she's so concerned about Rafe.
Sami is stunned, "OMG... OMG.... On the plane... In that hospital in Cleveland... Nicole panicked wanting us to believe her. And you knew. Every time I would fall apart and you would put your arms around me. Every time... you knew she was OK. It's all just like Rafe said. All because you wanted a front row seat to see me suffer."
"Yeppers," says EJ, "I know it was wrong but I wanted you to feel the pain you made me feel when you kept my daughter form me."
"I didn't tell you your daughter was dead."
"Yes," says EJ, "That's exactly what you did."
Carly sleeps. Bo is so devastated about Hope he jumps right into bed with her. Carly wakes, "Sleeping seemed like a good way to make this day go away. How's Hope?"
"I'm worried about her." In fact, he's so worried, he cops a few feels.
Nicole says Rafe doesn't confide in her. Stefano says she is a good liar, "And you are very, very afraid."
EJ rants, "You knew Grace was our child and said nothing."
"I was out of my mind with grief," says Sami.
EJ seethes, "I swore I would get my revenge on you and make you pay. And then I found out Sydney was our daughter."
KABLOOIE!
"YEAH, GOOD FOR YOU! AND THE FIRST THING YOU THINK ABOUT IS GETTING REVENGE AGAINST ME!"
KABLOOIE BACKATCHA!
"YOU KEPT MY DAUGHTER FROM ME! ALL RIGHT?"
"Yeah, I did," says Sami, "You know why? It wasn't for revenge. I was trying to be a good parent. I had just seen a man get murdered on your doorstep. I should have trusted my instincts. You are a monster!"
EJ gives a belly-laugh, "You'd like that. It would make this really easy for you. But you know in your heart that is not who I am."
Bo sleeps. Hope wakes him, "Please, Bo, save me."
Bo wakes. Bo huffs and puffs. He stares at Carly.
Rafe finds Roman at the pier. Roman asks what happened back at the DiMera mansion, "Where's Sami?"
Rafe says, "She stayed with EJ."
"DAMN!"
That does it. The entire episode has been banned from broadcast until they can clean up the filthy language.
Rafe realizes Roman has misunderstood, "Oh, no the wedding is off. She just wanted time to cuss him out." He hands Roman the CD, "Proof that EJ kidnapped Sydney. Sami knows that. The end if finally in sight."
EJ says he wanted to make Sami suffer and then take the kids when she was dependent on him, but in the process he realized he was so angry because he had been deceived BY HER, "Somebody who I once loved and still love."
Sami growls, "You don't know the meaning of the word."
EJ asks, "That night when we went swimming... was that not love? When we tucked Sydney in bed together... was that not love? When we sat at the table and had dinner as a family... was that not love? When the cooks were off and I made you do the dishes... was that not love?"
Sami screams, "IT WAS AN ACT! Were you just trying to seduce me?"
"That's beside the point," says EJ, "I love you. Those are the most wonderful moments of my life."
"Save them," snorts Sami, "They're not happening again."
"You have to know how much I hate what I have done," says EJ, "I couldn't hurt you. I couldn't take Sydney from you. I have spent every moment since then trying to make up for the horror I put you through. That's why I asked you to marry me. So I can make it up to you for all the Days Of Our Lives."
Carly whispers, "It means a lot to me that you remembered I'm alive after your blithering Hopefest up on the stand, but I know how hard this is for you." Bo says he's worried Baker will get less time than Hope.

Those two kids (EJ and Sami) don't know how much in love they really are - RoboJohn.
I miss RoboJohn*. Watch someone will accuse me of being of John* shipper regardless of how evil he once was.
I for one cannot wait for our Rafester* aka Rafenstein* aka starfish* aka wet blanket* to get his. You know those brows* of his are up to something not good. Now I will be accused of siding with evil.
Well if evil makes this story move any faster and is more exciting and dramatic then I guess I am on the side of Evil. Because good ain't cuttin' it.
I love how Stefano* has completely kept his hands clean and let EJ take all the fall for this. Classic.
I am also pretty sure Vivienne's* plan is going to backfire on her - sadly. I am a little sick of Maggie* as well.
Bo/Carly/Hope*** I mean really? Bo should at least keep Carly since Hope is going to do a few years in the clink right? Yeah sure a Brady* no matter what they do they some how get off scott free. Where is the justice. How long before we see Hope* go free?
I thought I would hate the wedding scene* with the reveal* but I am glad it's out now. EJ* was right to throw back at Sami* that letting him think his child was dead who he didn't even know he had a child before. What comes around goes around.
* = all references to fictional characters, and fictional storylines. Just in case you don't realize this is a fictional rant about a fictional show.
Well hallelujah - it's about time. This episode I might even watch.
Here's my take on the whole Stef/Nat/Mel/Dan/Carly/Phil/Chloe results switcharooie thing...
Philip is the Daddy..
Stef didn't change the results - too "slow" to do it.
Carly changed the results to Daniel so that she could screw with another kids mind and let them think their Daddy was someone else...
Nathan - changed the results to Philip being Baby Daddy, to break up Phil and Mel and get him out of his hellish life with Stef.
Phil changed the results back to Daniel cause he wants to keep Mel and probably because he's petrified that he will have to fork over millions of dollars in tutors for the kid, since it won't have much of a hope with Chloe as a mother...
The shot of Melanie was her on the phone declining the job at St. whatever's because she couldn't work with Nathan and be all hot and bothered.
The shot of Daniel was him ordering a pizza or renewing his subscription to Big 'uns.
And, personally, I am glad to see Sami split with EJ...Evil and hurt EJ is much more entertaining than this loving sack of *&^* (to quote Melanie)
Thanks for all you do Prevuze! I am a big fan of your blog!
FINALLY! Hallelujah! It's OUT!
And not as bad as I feared. Good for EJ for throwing it back in Sami's face. Original Sin what?
Now, how long will it take Sami to realize Rafe cares more about nailing EJ than her? Heh.
Bo leans over to her, "It means a lot to me that you are here."
Bo’s an idiot. I wonder how much it means to Hope that Carly showed up with Bo.
Bo says he's worried Baker will get less time than Hope.
…and Bo has a problem with that? At best, Baker was only Hope’s accomplice. He didn’t plan the attacks nor did he carry them out. Dr. Baker might have gone on a spending spree with EJ’s platinum card but he certainly didn’t physically hurt anyone. It was Hope that cold cocked all the victims. Instead of being so upset with Dr. Baker, Bo should be directing the anger at himself.
When he does find out I'll be swimming with the fishes." I think she means sleeping with the fishes unless she's planning to be a porpoise rider at Sea World.
At this point, Nicole is probably wishing she was a porpoise rider at Sea World.
The judge tells Bo to shut his yap. Cheers fill the audience.
While the judge is unwilling to threaten Bo with contempt of court, we viewers have no problem finding him contemptuous.
"Should we take evidence compiled by a crazy woman to put an innocent man away," he asks.
NOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!! Hope needs to be thrown in the slammer, and Dr. Baker should be set free. Dr. Baker is far more entertaining than Hope will ever be.
Maggie says she just feels she has to be by herself.
Geez - Just kick Melanie and Phillip out of the house. It’s not like Phillip can’t afford a place of his own. He can start shopping by checking out Lucas’ McMansion and Marlena’s townhouse.
Nicole says she heard about the wedding and wonders why they are there.
Good gravy! Nicole really is stupid!
"I hope Rafe didn't do anything rash," says Nicole.
Good gravy! Nicole really is stupid part deux!
Stefano says she is a good liar, "And you are very, very afraid."
Aha!!! Stefano throws Nicole a clue. If she ends up in protective custody with Rafe as her guard, Nicole will finally get her just desserts. She’ll find herself being bored to death. Quick - grab Vivian’s sarcophagus. Nicole is going to need it.
Sami’s schtupper hands over the inadmissible evidence to her father. What’s he going to do with it? In the words of that great 20th century philosopher, Yogi Berra, “it ain’t over till it’s over”, because it appears we’re going to get another day of Sami and EJ hacking each other to pieces. Sigh.
Now, how long will it take Sami to realize Rafe cares more about nailing EJ than her? Heh.
Oh Luci – I think “nailing” Sami is foremost on Rafe’s agenda! LOL!!!
Happy hump day everyone!
Don't you guys watch crime shows.
Just because one piece of evidence is inadmissible that does not mean you can't use the information from it to get evidence you can use.
It becomes a map to getting what you need.
Now that they know it's him they can backtrack their case and use Anna and bust EJ.
"Stefano says he really doesn't know what's going on, 'But I sure as hell am going to find out.'"...how convenient! Stefy always gets a bout of alzeimers when his son is in trouble. As much as I'd like to think that EJ, for once, had the upper hand on Stefano, I can't see the o'le goat being innocent in all of this. But I'm sure he'll let EJ take the fall for it, just so that Elvis knows that he was wrong and daddy was right! What a hipocrite!
"That's enough! You gotta stop. She's suffered enough."...there goes idiot #2 with a bout of alzeimers. WHY did Hope suffer Bo?...oh right, you were being such a supportive husband at the time, splitting your time between Carly and Hope's bedroom with Carly! The man's a martyr!
"The judge tells Bo to shut his yap. Cheers fill the audience."...cheers fill this audience too...
"Let her go," says Baker, "She can't take it. Don't do this to her."...Ahhhhh, Baker is soo sweet trying to defend Hope...
"It was like kicking Hope when she's down. God, it felt great. And you know Bo... he can't stand seeing a woman dressed... uh... I mean in distress"...LOL Prevuze! I think you made your point well!
"Yeppers," says EJ, "I know it was wrong but I wanted you to feel the pain you made me feel when you kept my daughter form me."...I'd hate to say it but EJ has a point! He's soo good at justifying "an eye for an eye"...
"Where's Sami?" Rafe says, "She stayed with EJ." DAMN is right! Apparently, Rafe doesn't want Nicole, and Sami doesn't want him...Cave dwelling might not be a bad idea for him...one can write a lot of advanced algebra equations on it's walls...
"You have to know how much I hate what I have done," says EJ...I can make it up to you for all the DOOL's."...I have a feeling Sami will take the bait this time, but guess who'll be doing the dishes from now on? This "eye for an eye" thing might not be such a bad idea after all :)
”Maybe it's time for me to leave Salem."
And the writers conveeeeniently have Maggs deciding to leave Salem just as Vivian plans to “disappear” her in a sarcophagus. Yawn.
They haven’t done a trial storyline for quite a while, and it shows. That had to be the lamest trial I’ve ever seen. Baker got off a few good quips. But from the prosecution to the defense, nothing was even remotely believable, logical, or (worst yet) entertaining.
That does it. The entire episode has been banned from broadcast until they can clean up the filthy language.
The episode needs to be banned until TPTB come up with some enjoyable storylines, clever dialog and more likeable characters (or at least characters we love to hate).
When about the only thing you can think of to comment on is the fact that Lexi’s top yesterday matched Stefano’s pocket square you know your interest in what is happening on the screen is waning.
Thank goodness for Prevuze, who keeps the drivel interesting and amusing. Bravo!
"I didn't tell you your daughter was dead."
"Yes," says EJ, "That's exactly what you did."
Way to go, EJ! If Sami thinks what she did was any different from what EJ did, she's just splitting hairs. Either way, they both deceived each other in a big way. Sami will realize this when she has time to let everything sink in and she will be able to forgive EJ as he has forgiven her.
Berg, if loving your post is wrong, I don't wanna be right.
I've gotta killer hate on for Sami.
She and Rafester*aka Rafenstein* aka starfish* aka wet blanket* aka Sir Smirksalot* can rot in hell for all of eternity.
"Bo says he's worried Baker will get less time than Hope."
--God forbid justice ever reign in Salem.
"Sami asks Rafe to play it. EJ begs her not to do this. "I have to," says Sami."
--But only because the Rafester asked her. Nicole and Stefano asked her to do the same thing months ago and she wouldn't give either of them the time of day.
"Melanie cuts to the chase, "What about ME?"
--One of the few times I can't accuse the writers of ignoring characterization in favor of plot.
"'Yeah, I did,' says Sami, 'You know why? It wasn't for revenge. I was trying to be a good parent.'"
--Who does this broad think she's kidding?
word verification bonus - exenegam: noun, def; a medical procedure designed specifically for attractive woman, first developed and used by Dr. Daniel Jonas.
"Oh, *$#&%&$!!" For both Baker taking the rap for Princess Hope and for another buried alive storyline. When they did that before I came as close to quitting the show as I ever have. If you think the Sydnapping thing has gone on forever you ain't seen nothing yet.
Hope's incarceration has provided some great Prevuze fodder such as "You can only babysit Hope for so long until it gets to you" and her scraggy clothes, disheveled hair, grim look on her face and a three day growth of beard. (Another arrousing the suspicions of my coworkers with my laughing moment.) But does she still get to wear her gleaming fleur-de-lis earrings? I didn't think they'd get those off her ears with a crowbar.
Thank God they got on with the big tape reveal. I just assumed the "should we listen to it or not listen to it" debate alone would drag us to November sweeps.
Thanks for the great recap today!
Ok so Sami will hear the tape argue with EJ. Leave with the kids and shack up with Rafe. Boring unless you are a SAFE fan. Loved Victor with Nicole. He is soo enjoying this. Brady really did tell Nicole off. I kinda like dark Brady. Gives him character. I'm going to miss Dr B. He was such a hoot. Now for the p%&$#ed off part. Ejami I love them together so much. Too bad tptb don't. Some people don't see a good thing right in front of them.
Let's compare Rafe and Ej. Rafe
Average height, Catapillar brows, Nice bod for 37 yr old trying to be 25, nice eyes, No personality,. No expression,. Doesn't give a hoot about his sister,. Only Sami's kids and will take her along with them,. No acting ability.
Now EJ (sigh)
Tall, dark,. handsome, Mr Adonis four years in a row. Sweet, charming, classy, respectful. Loves Sami and her kids, Rich, powerful. sexy, loving I, could go on but I think everyone gets my drift.
so far 9 Rafester to 13 EJ. EJ has changed admit it. In today's show even Rafe said Sami thought Sydney was did for what an hour. EJ couldn't do it. He didn't even get a chance to be with Grace at all. She died and he found out later. Seriously which is worse. WHAT safe DID. Yes in deed it was.
I love Ejami and they will be the endgame so doubt about it.
It's amazing how Sami and EJ keep forgetting about Allie. What wonderful parenting. At least this joke of a couple is over for now.
this is WONDERFUL ejami stuff. (prevuze 2) is the episode that is bringing me back to the show after nearly a year away from it! thats the POWER AND MAGIC of this couple. just when i think i am free of this show once and for all EJAMI pull me right back in.
Tricky
YEEEEAAAHHH FOR RAFE and SAMI... Finally. EJ NEEDS TO PAY AND PAY DEARLY. But he won't he never has to. This time he should HAVE to. and if Sami EVER forgives that B****** this time I will quit watching for sure along w/ many of my friends who have already. I did to for a long awhile. Turned back to it and it was right where it left off when I quit. can you spell B-O-R-I-N-GGGGGGGG.... SAY IT WITH ME NOW BORI-N-G.... Come on writers get over it already move on.
I can't BELIEVE they R going to do another boring shooting on EJ. To Bad this time it doesn't do him in. But it won't. He needs to SUFFER BIG TIME. If I were Sami I would have done the same thing keeping him away from MY kids. But I would have stuck w/it. And I sure as HELL wouldn't have married a man who RAPED ME...And did the things to my family he did. (FAMILY F-I-R-S-T ALWAYS SAMI.) EJ IS WORTHLESS JUST WORTHLESS. (RAFE IS THE MAN. AND THE WINNER HA HA HA. SO TAKE THAT EJAMI FANS...
It is going to take until NEW YEARS for this stupid CD finding to get over and get on with the story. WHY OH WHY do they have to carry crap out so darn long. Come on writers. All the KIds grow up in A month. They get Preggers and have their babies in 3 weeks. But Carry out this kinda crap FOREVER. NOT!!!!!! If U keep this kinda crap up people WILL quit watching for sure.
Get it over with already.U get us excited about certain things and then U carry it out for Months and Months. Get over it already.
And Another BURIED ALIVE BUNCH OF CRAP BY VIV. HOW STINKING BORING. U use shooting, Bad Weddings, Buried alive CRAP to DEATH. Can't u come up with ANYTHING NEW... Get over it already or U R going to LOSE all UR Viewers.....
U R suppose to bring the ratings UP not continue Bringing them DOWN if U want to cont. W/DOOL. WE want the show ...so do BETTER.
It is TIME to put Bo/Carly to rest to. It makes me sick to DEATH to see them together. He should B getting rid of her if He is so concerned about HOPE instead of crawling in bed w/her. What a ASS. Send her down the Road and B A MAN FOR A CHANGE. U keep saying u was wrong and would B there for her and then U goright back and crawl back in bed w/ CARLY. U R worthless these days to BO...
And Steph the WHINNING, CRYING, WEAK PIECE OF CRAP SHE TURNED INTO. IT IS SICKENING.
THE WHOLE SHOW IS SICKENING ANYMORE. THE WRITER R JUST PLAIN LAZY ITI S A SIMPLE AS THAT. OR They Just don't know WHAT THEY ARE DOING... I SAY GET SOME NEW WRITERS.
