Let me get this straight -- Erica is going to have a dance marathon so that people will donate $1M to the starving children in Africa, but the dance is going to be held in the OFFICE at FUSION? WTF? Who wants to watch THAT? I'm sure the PV High School auditorium would be available and the Booster Club would be more than willing to throw in some Kleenex flowers as decorations. What about ConFusion? They have a perfectly good bar downstairs for something like that. I'm also annoyed that they keep throwing in cutesy stuff about dancing as in-jokes about Susan Lucci and Cameran Mathison on DWTS. Give it a rest, already!
And if Erica REALLY wanted to raise a lot of money, she could use her celebrity to get CELEBRITY dancers, or at least INTERESTING ones. She could also have a big, crowded room so that there are more dancers. Why did it have to be thrown together in the space of a day? Not only does no one have enough time to prepare, but there's not NEARLY enough time to advertise for it in order to get sponsors.
Why can't Kendall eavesdrop via the baby monitor? She keeps coming out of her room to do that when it isn't really necessary (although she can SEE by sneaking out).

If Randi hasn't had her morning coffee yet, WTF is she doing in a bar? Oh wait, I guess she DOES work upstairs. Okay, I'll cut her some slack, THIS time. But will she go to work? Of course not.
My sister pointed out that Spike's speech pattern (when he told Kendall to come out and play) sounds a lot like someone who might be hearing impaired. I have to agree. I think that, at least THAT triplet, probably IS hearing impaired.
As for Kendall, I really think Zach should SERIOUSLY consider putting ankle restraints on her to keep her in her fucking room -- I doubt she spends more than a couple of minutes a day in it other than when she's sleeping, and she walks out to eavesdrop virtually EVERY time someone comes over. She's like a cat, except that cats have the potential to actually LEARN not to do something. Maybe Zach should start running the vacuum cleaner to make her skedaddle back to her room.
Kendall tells Spike he has to gone downstairs because Liza is going to lose his brother -- look how Liza keeps losing Spike! What a BITCH! As if Spike isn't traumatized enough by the events in his life, now he has to worry that Liza is going to lose his little brother, who had already disappeared from Spike's life for an extended period relatively recently.
Oh, I guess we can rule out EMMA shooting Stuart, unless she AND someone else fired shots, which is more than a little possible, of course.
Annie reassures Emma that what happened with the gun was just an accident, just like when Emma accidentally broke the Christmas Angel -- she didn't get in trouble because it was an accident. Well, maybe so, but Emma never gets into trouble ANYWAY. The most she ever gets is a 2-line lecture given with hugs and smiles and reassurances. That kid rarely, if EVER, hears the word "NO!"

Once again Emma does whatever the hell she wants, leaving the penthouse on her own and riding her bike to Zach's house, and Ryan simply tells her that she scared him and she should not be doing things like that. Now she's upstairs with Spike and Corinna. How about GROUNDING the wayward little brat or, at the very least, giving her a LONG time-out?
Are we supposed to believe that David does NOT have cameras and microphones hidden all over the house or, at the very least, at the door and approach to the castle?
Annie admits to Scott that Ryan has a valid reason to suspect that she kidnapped Emma -- after all, she DID kidnap her once before. Once? I think she's kidnapped her at LEAST 3 times now.

Okay, I know it was just the chair scraping, but when Frankie stumbled out of his chair at the casino, the chair sounded like quite a drawn out fart, and given his drunken facial expression, it certainly FIT 
Kendall is exasperated because Zach won't forgive her for sleeping with Ryan. She confronts him about it, yet again, and says she can't take it back and they need to move on. Haven't I heard this refrain before? Oh yeah, she had sex with Aidan, too, and not that long ago. How many times is Zach going to have to hear Kendall say, "I'm SORRY, I can't take it back that I had sex with _____ ... and ______ ... and _____ ... But you know it's YOU I really love!"
Doesn't Kendall have to take steroids to prevent rejection of her heart transplant? Why hasn't she blown up like a puffer fish? I'm not sure how far along Alicia Minshew is in her pregnancy, but she is just BARELY showing.
Scott brushes off Annie's depressing admission that she's the cause of Emma's tears and anguish. Scott: "You made mistakes." Uh, yeah, just a FEW.
Okay, now THAT was a good slap that Angie gave Madison. Up close and personal and it was quite believable, unlike most soap slaps.

Why is there an entrance from the pool directly into the living room/parlour? Don't they have a separate entrance for that? My Mom would have had a FIT if we had come dripping into the living room, and she would have sent us right back outside until we dried off. She may or may not have thrown some towels out the door to us.
Why is Scott tickling Annie? Obviously he has NO sense of boundaries. Not that it isn't exactly what Annie wanted, but she IS about to become his step-aunt. Their constant frolicking right under Adam's nose is all QUITE contrived and tiresome.
Based on the applause (or lack thereof), that's a mighty skimpy audience for the live taping of New Beginnings.

Why is Adam wearing sunglasses in the house? Did anyone else note the coincidence of him having to say the line: "These past few months have been the darkest in my life," while wearing sunglasses in the living room?
That is an UGLY wedding dress! Of course, the fact that WE saw it before the wedding means it was never going to be a possibility, in any case. It's the law.
Is Kendall wearing stuff that needs to be dry-cleaned? Will anyone notice that dry-cleaning and just plain old laundry is being done for Kendall's stuff? Is she wearing perfume? Won't anyone smell it in the house?

Another gun. Yeah, THAT'll solve everything. Sigh ...
Given how often he gets into other people's places, you'd think David would at least think to lock his OWN front door.
After everything they've gone through in the last couple of days, why would Amanda choose to wear such an incredibly low-cut (not to mention skin-tight) top? I mean, what are her thought processes when she gets dressed in the morning? "Mybabymybabymybaby, deodorant, mybaby, panties, mybabymybaby, pants, mybabymybaby, bra, mybaby, which top to wear? A tee-shirt? No, I might have to be in front of a judge. Mybabymybabymybaby! 4" heels, mybaby, perfume, mybaby, this top is good because it doesn't go all the way down to my belly button. I might have to meet with judges or social workers, so I should go conservative. Mybabymybaby, earrings, mybaby, bracelet. Damn, these buttons are HARD to fasten!

How did Kendall manage to broker a telephone operator or recording indicating that the call was coming from the prison? Don't they have to have a special recording informing the callee that the call is from a prison? AND Erica knows the drill, having recently done time herself, and she probably is quite familiar with the voice that normally makes the announcement.
Kendall tells Zach that being locked up in that room it feels like it's a PRISON! Uh, DUH! Considering that SHE was the one who insisted on going to a REAL prison, she's being pretty damned ungrateful. And considering how often she comes out of the room at the drop of a hat, QUITE often while other people are visiting, Zach really SHOULD consider chaining her to something in the room. For that matter, he might as well do a Hannibal Lector and put a muzzle over her mouth. Hmmm, maybe she IS better off in prison.
Wow, Liza actually KNOWS the term "conflict of interest"? THAT'S a shocker.
So much for Erica's determination to stay and keep an eye on Zach. She spies lipstick on a glass, he's evasive and tells her she can leave if she doesn't like and ... she does, telling him that she'll send someone over in the morning for her things. WTF? Why would she give up THAT easily?

Erica just DRIPS with disdain over the fact that Zach chose LIZA as an attorney when there are SO many lawyers that are just SOOOO much better than Liza. she just does NOT understand why he would choose HER. This from the woman who insisted that Trevor Dillon represent her in his very FIRST case. She was being tried for murder, I think, or possibly the kidnap of Maddie Gray. Trevor had just passed the bar by reading a few second-hand law books that Natalie picked up for him). Pot, Kettle.

Obviously Liza gave only MINOR lip service to the concept of attorney/client privilege, given that she's spilling the beans to David about the loan from Adam to Zach with relatively little prodding on his part.
Are they setting little Trevor up to have an emotional detachment disorder? I ask because so far he's bonded with a) the nanny, b) Amanda, c) Taylor, and d) Randi. That's a LOT of Mama figures for such a short time period.
