Erica tells the Bride of Chuckie (Nurse Gayle) that she's on to her and will be watching her VERY CLOSELY. Uh, why doesn't she just inform Adam or, if she has the power, FIRE her, right then and there? I can see where she might not be able to tell Adam right away, but there is CLEARLY a conflict of interest and Adam has every right to fire her and have her replaced with another nurse.
I just noticed that David Canary's right hand seems to be shaking somewhat at times. It's subtle, though, and for all I know he's been doing that for years.
Why would Barry have a meeting about damage control over the defective heart valve at a table at the yacht club if they want to make sure NO ONE gets wind of the fact that the knew the valve was defective even as it was being implanted into a baby? They couldn't meet at the Chandler house or a room at the YC or even during a walk on the beach? Nope, gotta do it in a place where competitors and reporters might overhear them.

I wasn't playing close attention to WHY Opal was at Ryan's place and I was wondering. She questioned Aidan, but I don't think he asked her why SHE was there before he hustled her out, did he? Later in the show it was revealed that she went over there to tell Ryan NOT to go to the party at the Chandler house. Uh, if that was the case, why did she just quietly let herself in with her key without even knocking when he wasn't expecting her? For that matter, why didn't she just CALL him? Yeah, I know she needed to "see" Annie and catch Aidan, but it was was a) incredibly rude, and b) stupid.
After Opal leaves, Annie rushes into the room, squealing with delight over Aidan being there. He untangles her from him and says: "What the hell is WRONG with you?" Annie: "Uh, I'm criminally insane -- DUH! I killed a few people, remember? Hello??? Is anybody in there??" She thwacks his forehead and a hollow sound echoes forth. Okay she didn't say or do that last part, but it's what I THINK she should have said and done and what would have happened if she HAD.
JAR is mad because "now David has an all-access pass to this house". What does he mean "NOW"? David has ALWAYS had an all-access pass to the house. He pops in and pops up wherever and whenever he feels like it. Has Security ever stopped him, even ONCE?
I think Jill Larson looks much better with her hair red as opposed to blond. OTOH, the matronly style is nice enough, I suppose, but it's kind of Better Crocker/Phoebe Wallingford-ish. Erica wouldn't be caught DEAD with that hairstyle, at least not for another 20+ years.
Ian's heart monitor changes its tune for the worse and David curses, giving the order "INCREASE THE MEDICATION!" WHAT medication? I would imagine Ian is getting more than one medication pumped into him. I would think the name of the medication AND the dosage would normally be included in an order like that. Of course, it WAS Jake he was giving the order to, but still ...
Aisling, I hope your flashbacks weren't too painful when watching Aidan roll down the stairs! I did notice that he landed quite carefully, though, as opposed to thudding onto the ground. Once his stunt double and/or dummy (insert your own joke here) stopped rolling down the stairs and Aiden Turner took over at the bottom, he looked more like a chimp or an orangutan doing a playful somersault. Not that I would expect an actor to be THAT realistic. I suppose that WOULD be asking a lot from one's instrument for the sake of one's craft.
I think the angel and engraved lettering on Babe's grave is supposed to be golden, but on MY TV it kind of looks like the color of baby barf after a baby eats pureed peas.
A poster (katya) on the Pine Valley Podcast blog suggested a GREAT nickname for Marissa. Since Krystal basically auctioned off Babe's twin sister at birth, maybe her nickname should be "E-Babe"
I LOVE it!
I have to confess that I'm a little miffed that Krystal kept the BLOND baby instead of the brunette. My sister ALWAYS got the blond dolls and I ALWAYS got the brunette ones. From an adult standpoint, it makes sense in order to differentiate which doll belongs to which little girl, but from a kid standpoint: THAT'S NOT FAIR! Once Marissa finds out (assuming that she doesn't already know it and is just playing along for the time being) that she was sold as a baby so that Mama could keep the shiny blond Baby-Doll with the glittery hoo-ha, she's going to have a wicked MARCIA-MARCIA-MARCIA complex.

Someone on the Pine Valley Podcast commented on how skinny Marissa is. I don't think she's skinny. Compared to some of the other women on the show, she looks just about perfect as far as weight goes.
Hmmm, it's pretty odd to see David PRAISING Chandler Enterprises at a press conference. What's his angle? Is he setting up Adam and JAR for a big fall? If Ian died or had to have yet another operation to replace the valve, that wouldn't look very good for David, and I don't think he would to that to a toddler. I suppose it's a win-win for David either way, though. If it succeeds, he's the first doctor to use it, and if it fails, he can use that excuse to take down the Chandlers. Maybe the SECOND person who gets it is going to ... well ... GET IT. I doubt he did it JUST for visitation rights once a month with Junior Junior. Or did he? Toward the end of the show he explained to Scott that Ian survived DESPITE it being a flawed valve, because he immediately recognized the problem and was able to fix it on the fly. For now. You never know with David, though. With Chuck Pratt writing, anything is possible.
I have a question about the valve replacement. Ian is just a baby. He's going to grow quite a bit over the coming years. Wouldn't the valve need to be replaced as he grew older? Is it too big for him now and he'll grow into it, or will it be too small for it and have to be replaced every few years until he's an adult? Wouldn't scar tissue build up around the sutures and stay unstretched or, worse, split as he grows?
How many of you guffawed when David, with a straight face, told a reporter that they maintain STRICT doctor/patient confidentiality at PVH? BWAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAA!!!! Stop, yer killin' me!
Why did Aidan get up from the table to warn Annie not to say anything about where she was and telling her she was taking a BIG risk calling him? Wouldn't have have been considerably more discreet to simply sit there and take the call without dramatically pacing about over a sudden phone call? Super secret agent my ASS. He may have done it to get away from the people near his table, but he COULD have been a bit more nonchalant about it, even if he had to pretend he was digging out a wedgie to do it. Come to think of it, a nasty wedgie WOULD explain the expression that's on his face most of the time.
Adam invited DAVID (and Krystal) to the mansion for the celebration party? Oh PUH-LEASE!
Hey, they actually DID acknowledge that Ian was not yet 2 years old (he's 21 months)!
I don't understand why JAR seems to think visitation rights to David are a done deal -- JAR did NOT give visitation rights to him -- ADAM did. Not only that, but wouldn't the COURT be the one to say that David has the RIGHT to visitation? From what I can see, David has no rights AT ALL, even if Adam DID sign the papers. ADAM does not have custody, PERIOD. If JAR is too stupid to figure that out within 2 seconds, then he really shouldn't be running a multi-national conglomerate ... or even signing a report card. THIS MAKES NO SENSE!
I liked the way Adam's voice went high when he told Erica and Nurse Gail that he was FINE. A voice suddenly going high is a dead giveaway when someone is lying or at least nervous about THAT part of what they are saying.
I LOVED how David made it clear to Scott that it's in everyone's best interests for the heart valve to work, as opposed to David telling the world that it was flawed: if anything goes wrong, Zach will make sure they all end up in the desert somewhere after going through a wood-chipper. Ah, THAT explains his angle. Even DAVID has second-thoughts about crossing ZACH.
And then they end the show with finding the doctor (who pioneered the heart valve) hanging from the ceiling, with us seeing his feet swaying back and forth. Man, what a DOWNER! AMC is really pushing the envelope lately. That's the third in-your-face event in about a month or so; first they showed Zach removing Liza's panties, then they showed Jake going down on Amanda under the covers (which was in HIS face in that instance) and now a hanging body. I hope we aren't going to see the man's bloated face with his tongue protruding, his eyes popping out and a rope around his neck on Monday (not to mention puddled urine on the floor, among other things).

When Ryan said to Tad (re the Satin Slayer and Dixie's death): "What happened to you not wanting to dig this whole thing up again," how many of you IMMEDIATELY flashed to Tad burying Dr. Madden and causing his death in he process? Yeah, there ARE some things Tad just does NOT want to be reminded/questioned as far as digging things up goes.
Jake tells Amanda (re his loving her) that he never says anything he doesn't mean -- at least he TRIES. So I guess he meant it when, FOR NO APPARENT REASON, he called her a slut and said she looks like a hooker! Sorry, but it's going to take a while for me to reconcile the two Jakes.
Ryan's thoughts are that when this (this being Ian's health crisis) is over, he's going to take her far away from all this to a place where kids never get sick and she can just smile and laugh and let go. Why bother? Doesn't he accomplish that in his own penthouse? She never thinks about the kids when she's there unless someone calls to tell her that something is very wrong ... AGAIN. And she's not with them because being with Ryan is MUCH more important to her ... AGAIN.
They've really gone over the edge with Adam this time! Adam is an evil bastard who will stop at nothing in business to get the edge and crush his enemies. He has NEVER deliberately risked the life of a BABY, though. When he locked Gloria up in that warehouse and she went into premature labor, the baby DID end up dying after a day or two. However, that was a different situation, and he almost committed suicide over it. He didn't believe she was really in labor and was driven by a jealous and possessive rage. Does he really believe the doctor is lying about the heart valve having a design flaw? Maybe, maybe not, but I still don't believe it's true to Adam's character to just go ahead with the surgery anyway just for the sake of money. Then again, he DID leave Krystal on the floor to give birth and then kidnapped her baby to SELL it to strangers, while leaving it in the care of a known psychopath. Still, in the cases of Gloria and Krystal, he was driven by intense emotions. This time he is cold-bloodedly gambling with the LIFE of a BABY! Chandler might go under if they don't have a successful operation with the new heart valve, but it will SURELY go under if the baby dies BECAUSE of the heart valve.
First they show Zach pulling off Liza's panties, and now they show Jake going under the covers and starting to go down on Amanda. What next? Are we going to see him coming up for air and wiping his glistening mouth and chin? Of course, we actually DID see Krystal wiping her mouth several years ago after she convinced a doctor/lab tech to make sure the DNA results on Babe's unborn baby showed JAR to be the father.

Ah, THERE'S the "I'm going to Germany!" I was looking for!
JAR says Ian is 2 years old. Not quite. He was born in late July of 2007.
Amanda has fond memories of her and Jake. She remembers the time she wore the pirate outfit with the parrot on her shoulder. She also remembers wearing Brot's uniform for them to have sex. Uh, why would she be remembering THOSE episodes? IIRC, Jake used the pirate outfit as an excuse to call her a slut/hooker (even though HE was the one who asked her to do it), and Taylor, who thought Brot was dead at the time, caught Amanda "desecrating" Brot's uniform and it was quite the mood killer. Amanda felt HORRIBLE about how thoughtless she had been.

Wow, I'm STUNNED! That's TWO people at the hospital who refuse to give out information about patients to people who have no legal business knowing. Does that mean there is a glimmer of hope for HIPAA in PV? ... Nah.
Did you notice that Dr. Bender was paged to the MENTAL WARD? Does anyone call it that anymore? Yeah, WE can call it a loony bin or mental ward, but wouldn't hospitals have long ago started referring to them as Psychiatric Wards or just by code numbers, as far as paging goes?
I never thought I'd say this, but I agree with JAR AND David. At least as far as the heart valve goes. They haven't done ANY human trials and they're willing to stick it into a TODDLER? They should go with one of the other options and then, once the valve has been proven to be effective, THEN they can put it in him at a later date. Yes, they'll have to cut him open yet AGAIN, but that's less risky than putting an unproven, unTESTED PROTOTYPE into his little chest!
Something doesn't ring true to me about Frankie's situation. He's seriously injured and is being flown to Germany. Jesse and Angie would be on the FIRST plane to Germany to be there ASAP, not sitting by the phone wringing their hands. So would Randi, but I doubt she has a passport (but I'm sure Jesse would somehow be able to push that through VERY quickly).

Colby fights having David examine her father, but relents and LEAVES THE ROOM! I suppose I can chalk that up to inexperience on her part, but that is MAJORLY dumb. OTOH, since she left the room, I don't have to watch her attempt to act and say all her lines in the same inflection as a nervous child reciting Hiawatha by memory and not having the slightest idea of what any of it actually MEANS.

Kendall wakes up in Ryan's bed and asks what time it is. He says it's almost noon. So she stayed the night. Where's Emma? I can pretty much guarantee you that a child will be awake and demanding attention WAAAAAY before noon unless there's something seriously wrong with it. And Kendall's OWN children? Eh. Not even blips on her bony radar. Then reality hits -- almost NOON! OMG -- she has to get to WORK! Again, children don't even occur to her/them.
JAR accusingly tells Scott that he wanted to go public with the heart valve two weeks ago, and Scott just want's to grab the glory all for himself. That's funny -- JAR forced the doctor to sell out because the doctor refused to rush it into production by the end of the WEEK -- and that was on 4/23/09, only ONE week ago.
Scott says the valve is ready for a clinical trial. Don't they need to have some time-consuming government paperwork processed LONG before a trial can actually go forth? I would think the change in ownership alone would delay the process.

Why did Kendall go to the park to get fresh air in the outdoors when they have acres of greenery all around the Slater house (and a pond)? Based on the incessant downtown horns they were so fond of piping in a while back, we know that the park is in the middle of the bustling metropolis of downtown PV. And we also know from views from atop the Chandler building that they have 5-lane one-way streets. That means Kendall had to go to great lengths to get to the park. Oh wait, she went there to meet Ryan. Funny, the air doesn't smell so "fresh" to ME.
Is it just me, or does Opal look like she's wearing a belt made out of pebbly duct tape?
Krystal and David sure do know how to sling euphemisms around. David tells Marissa that he and Krystal recently "found their way back to each other." Marissa says that Krystal told her that she had married her "old flame". Uh, they had ONE drunken shag after a frat party in the early 1980s. (I seem to recall she had come to the party with David's roommate, who then dumped her for another girl and David found her crying in their room. If they had been any drunker, they would have missed each other, tipped over, and accidentally shagged the furniture instead. That's hardly "finding their way back to each other" OR being "old flames". It was more like a brief, one-time exchange of bodily fluids. He didn't even remember her and I'm amazed SHE remembered HIM.
Kendall reacted to Ryan's angst about not seeing any remorse in Alexander Cambias' eyes and offered sympathy: "I'm sorry! I'm really, REALLY sorry!" Was I the only one who was surprised when she didn't immediately add: "But what about ME???"
I was watching Stuart on Wednesday's show and it occurred to me that some newer viewers not not have noticed that his left collar was sticking out. That's his trademark. What a lot of people might not know is that the REASON Stuart's left collar is always sticking out is because Stuart has a nervous, little-boyish habit of tugging on the bottom of that side of his sweater so that the collar keeps popping out. David Canary explained that once in an interview.
I don't remember if it ever came out to anyone but the viewers, but AMC *SHOWED* a gloved hand replacing the peanut butter in Winifred's SHOPPING CART when her back was turned. The poison was NOT put into the peanut butter at the Chandler house, so if they come up with another way to further the CURRENT storyline, they will be re-writing show history, aka LYING because they think we won't notice. Tad and Jesse were discussing how ANYONE could have gotten into the Chandler mansion via the tunnels. Hello, it was SHOWN THAT IT HAPPENED AT THE GROCERY STORE!
Kendall tells Ryan she loves only HIM and no one else. He says: "And what if I don't believe you?" She says: "Then believe THIS!" She grabs him and starts passionately kissing him. Ummm, isn't that kind of what split them up to begin with? She had desperately tried to get him to make love to her in a really pathetic manner. Sex is her way of diverting attention from the issue at hand. She's not frantic and doesn't have a note of hysteria this time, but she's STILL using sex to get her way and try to convince one or both of them that she really loves Ryan only.

Is it just me, or does Opal look like she's wearing a belt made out of pebbly duct tape?
Krystal and David sure do know how to sling euphemisms around. David tells Marissa that he and Krystal recently "found their way back to each other." Marissa says that Krystal told her that she had married her "old flame". Uh, they had ONE drunken shag after a frat party in the early 1980s. (I seem to recall she had come to the party with David's roommate, who then dumped her for another girl and David found her crying in their room. If they had been any drunker, they would have missed each other, tipped over, and accidentally shagged the furniture instead. That's hardly "finding their way back to each other" OR being "old flames". It was more like a brief, one-time exchange of bodily fluids. He didn't even remember her and I'm amazed SHE remembered HIM.
Kendall reacted to Ryan's angst about not seeing any remorse in Alexander Cambias' eyes and offered sympathy: "I'm sorry! I'm really, REALLY sorry!" Was I the only one who was surprised when she didn't immediately add: "But what about ME???"
I was watching Stuart on Wednesday's show and it occurred to me that some newer viewers not not have noticed that his left collar was sticking out. That's his trademark. What a lot of people might not know is that the REASON Stuart's left collar is always sticking out is because Stuart has a nervous, little-boyish habit of tugging on the bottom of that side of his sweater so that the collar keeps popping out. David Canary explained that once in an interview.
