Would you want Angie treating you at PVH after she spent all night at a dance marathon?

Where did the nanny go? Amanda handed Trevor off to Krystal to watch.

Did anyone else get whiplashed by two pop-culture evocations from Erica, one after the other? First Erica tells Ryan that the LAST thing she wants to hear from him are the words "I'm sorry" (Love Story - "Love means never having to say you're sorry"), followed by telling him that she doesn't want him changing for her because she likes him just the way he is (Billy Joel - "Just the Way You Are"). Then I noticed that Erica's dance couple number is 10. Is that their not-so-subtle way of labeling her as a 10 (yet another pop-culture reference, ala the movie "10").

Whose bright idea was it to drop all that confetti fall in the OFFICE? Who's going to clean THAT up? The (invisible) people in the office are going to be picking confetti out of crevices for WEEKS.

Speaking of crevices, Ryan and Erica are in the process of getting it on in her office. EWWWWWWWW!!! He's the father of her GRANDSON and on-and-off lover of her DAUGHTER and the presumed SON of the man she was going to marry (Chris Stamp)! Either way, Ryan would have been referring to her as "Mom" in one form or another. And now they are ripping their clothes off with each other, swapping spit and grinding pelvises, among other things. EWWWWWWWWW!!! Surprisingly, the age difference didn't bother me THAT much (okay SOME, but not as much as I thought it might), but the squick factor of the near incest connections skeeves me out PLENTY! Let's break it down, shall we?

Erica is the biological mother of Kendall, Bianca and Josh. Erica was formerly engaged to the late Chris Stamp, who was presumed for a while to be Ryan's biological father. Erica was temporarily married to Jack, her long-term on-again/off-again lover. Jack is Greenlee's biological father. Josh and Greenlee had hooked up on occasion. Greenlee was married to Ryan and was Kendall's best friend (and occasional enemy). Kendall was driving on the wrong side of the road, forcing Greenlee to lose control of a motorcycle and to disappear over a cliff; she was presumably killed in the process. Kendall and Ryan then started hooking up (yet AGAIN) before Greenlee even had time to decompose. Kendall is mother to Spike and Ian. Ryan is Spike's biological father and stepfather to Ian. Ryan is also the biological father of Emma and was formerly married to Emma's crazy, homicidal mother, Annie. Annie, Kendall, Greenlee, Adam and Ryan have all worked at Fusion in various capacities. Annie (aka InSannie) is now engaged to Adam, who has twice been married to Erica. Adam will become Emma's stepfather when/if he and Annie get married. Somewhere in all of this is a novelty song waiting to happen (along the lines of "I'm My Own Grandpa").
