Dr. Sinclair lets Ryan and Greenlee know Tad's cover was blown the night before, but Ryan didn't feel a need to tell Tad until the NEXT DAY?
I'm a little confused. Was the present at the shower for Greenlee from Amanda or Erica? Was it from Erica, but Amanda bought it? If ERICA was the one who arranged for the lingerie to be given to her, I wouldn't try them on if I were Greenlee -- they probably have some kind of itching powder embedded in them.
MARY SMYTHE IS BACK!!! She's ALWAYS fun! Wait a minute -- was that IT? She said she has a personal trainer who is missing her (presumably in Rotterdam). Talk about a drive-by! We've been ROBBED!
Considering Annie's history with tire irons, her overall violent tendencies and the fact that she had previously slammed the doctor's head into a pointy dresser, is putting a tire iron within reach of Annie while yelling at her REALLY the wisest choice on Dr. Sinclair's part? ... I thought not.
I know someone is applying Kendall's makeup daily, not to mention shampooing and styling her hair and probably waxing various hairy parts of her body and applying perfume, deodorant, body gel, fingernail and toenail polish and various moisturizers. I'm flummoxed, though, as to how they can put such copious amounts of mascara on her eyelashes without it smudging, since her eyes are closed; maybe they just glued false ones on and have been letting the glue either crumble or turn into cement on her eyelids. How are they keeping the lipstick from smudging on the tube in her mouth? Kendall may not be moving on her own, but she would have to be turned occasionally, which would jostle the tube.
Wouldn't all that makeup make Kendall more susceptible to infections, particularly since she would have to have had her immune system suppressed to try to ward off rejecting the transplanted heart? That HAS to be against the rules! I also have to wonder if anyone is brushing her teeth. How DO they take care of teeth for comatose/unconscious people?
I could not BELIEVE it when Erica threw snow on Bianca. WTF? That is SOOO out-of-character! I can see Erica, in a snit, throwing snow on just about ANYBODY but BIANCA! She would never, NEVER do that unless she was flat-out shit-faced drunk, and she probably wouldn't even do it THEN! She MIGHT do it to Kendall, but Bianca???? NO. FUCKING. WAY. (And Bianca was nowhere NEAR hysterical)
Now that I've seen the penthouse again with daylight, I can see the stereo speakers next to the fireplace -- so Greenlee and Ryan DID have sex and sleep naked in the living room ... AGAIN ... despite having Emma just upstairs.
Who's watching Fusion while all the key women are at the bridal shower (with the exception of comatose Kendall), Petey? Maybe it's a weekend.
Why haven't we seen Colby at PVU? Did she drop out?
Wow, that was QUITE a slap Reese's mother gave her! I had to back up and rewatch it because at first glance I thought she had PUNCHED her. Part of that impression was the sound effects, though.

Why would Amanda want to give her baby to Ryan and Greenlee? That makes NO sense! Hasn't Amanda noticed that there's ALWAYS drama with these two people at the center of it? ALWAYS. That goes for most people on a soap, of course, but come ON! Not only that, but they'll be in her face with her baby everywhere she turns.
Dr. Sinclair tells Tad that it's her job to create a safe environment so that her patients feel like they can trust her. OH PUH-LEEZE!
Amanda tells JAR that, with Ryan and Greenlee, the baby would grow up with happy and SANE parents. SANE?
Ryan joined a fight club to deal with his rage (due to being abused as a child and emotionally dealing with the fact that all his brothers were homicidal), nearly punched a pregnant Greenlee and then deliberately drove his bike off a cliff. When he unexpectedly (for him, anyway) lived through it, he pretended to be DEAD. FF a few years and he wakes up one day having forgotten the past four years of his life. And Greenlee ... well, Greenlee is simply and ultra-impulsive BITCH. She also kidnapped a baby and drove off a cliff (albeit accidentally) with it. She plots, she schemes, she's shallow, vain and arrogant and knows nothing about taking care of kids (Exhibit A: Emma's hands). And let's not forget that Annie is homicidally INSANE and she's already escaped and tried to kill Greenlee. She's tied to Emma for life, so she will be a factor, one way or another. What's to keep her from escaping again or being let out some day and coming back into their lives? Oh yeah, Ryan and Greenlee would make GREAT, sane, stable parents.
I don't like Jesse's mustache.
Ryan is pretty confident that Annie will never get out of Oakhaven. Has he ever met JaNut?
They've carried this charade with Aidan's interest in Annie WAY too long. Why won't they let US in on why he's doing it? If they want to hold our interest in that aspect, they have to give us a REASON for it because it makes NO sense. Why should we care? Why should AIDAN care?
Tad and Krystal have a baby and property. Their divorce CAN'T be as simple as just signing some papers in a bar.
Why was Greenlee looking so frumpy? Between the black dress and the sloppy bun of her hair she reminded me a Agnes Gooch.
Were Ryan and Greenlee in bed and asleep naked in front of a roaring and untended fire, or were they naked on the living room floor in front of a roaring and untended fire? Whichever room it is, they are sleeping on the floor. So are they are in the living room -- naked and just waiting to either catch on fire or be caught by Emma (or to be caught by Emma who burns yet another body part attempting to tend to the roaring, untended fire in the fireplace). On second look, I think they are on the bedroom floor (based on what looks like a mini-speaker to the right of the fireplace).

How many of you about choked when Ryan said that the doctor was breaking patient care laws? Ya think? Just the fact that she goes over and tells Ryan AND GREENLEE (who has NO relation or legal standing as far as Annie's mental health goes) tells me she's breaking MAJOR doctor/patient confidentiality rules. Should she even be telling Ryan any of this at this point, considering that he's divorcing Annie? What IS his legal standing in the matter?
On the issue of bad psychiatric facilities, it just occurred to me that the vent that Annie and Aidan use to talk back and forth between their rooms looks like it has some really SHARP metal edges. Just the thing to slice oneself upon, should the mood strike. Oddly, the slats face outward in BOTH rooms, even though there appears to be only one set of slats. Then, of course, there is the RIDICULOUS idea that there would be a vent there in the first place where patients could not only easily communicate, taunt or influence each other, but they can overhear whatever goes on in the next room, whether it be whispered confessions of deep, dark secrets or just someone jacking off because they're bored and horny. For that matter, they could have "vent sex" together. TOTALLY bogus premise!
When Brot met David, he introduced himself and then started telling David (without being prompted) about what happened to him in Iraq. I was expecting David to bust his chops and say something like: "Did I ASK you what happened? Shut up, do your job and don't speak to me unless spoken to!" He did at least tell Brot not to expect any favors, so it wasn't TOO much out of character.
Man, Erica missed a GOLDEN opportunity to skewer (so to speak) Greenlee when she mentioned getting Greenlee a set of knives for a wedding present and Greenlee responded by saying she knew just where to put them and not to tempt her. Erica is back at work after having been STABBED by Annie. She could have easily ripped Greenlee a new one for being so insensitive and won the round!
How does ANYTHING ever get done at Fusion? Greenlee shows up whenever she feels like it, which isn't often these days. She waltzes in at what is apparently close to (or past) lunchtime -- it's hard to tell. She tells Erica that she's got everything covered. She doesn't even KNOW anything since she's rarely there, so how can she have it covered? So Petey and Randi take off to get Chinese food. Erica, Bianca and Reese take off to try on wedding dresses. Frankie shows up to smooch with Randi and Greenlee magnanimously tells Randi to go ahead and take off. Then she tells Petey to do the same. Amanda goes AWOL. It's a Tuesday and there's only a little over two weeks until Valentine's Day -- you'd think a cosmetics place would be busy. Of course, they haven't even submitted their Valentine's advertising yet, although the deadline is today (and Greenlee will OBVIOUSLY miss that deadline). Don't they advertise in magazines? Magazines publish their issues a couple of MONTHS in advance. Idiotic. And here we were slightly impressed when they actually did a photo shoot more than a month in advance, as silly as that photo shoot was. Of course, those photos had to be jettisoned on account of Randi being an (inadvertent) amateur porn star, but you'd think they would have come up with something a little sooner than THIS. Doesn't matter -- Greenlee has her own advertising ideas that she hasn't shown anyone but Amanda, and she didn't do that until after Erica left. For that matter, if it was SOOO important to get the advertising submitted on time, why did Erica leave? Everything is supposedly riding on her keeping her daughter's company together for her, but she just leaves to give opinions on wedding dresses.
I just realized I'm now used to seeing Petey without his glasses. He's so cute!
Speaking of golden opportunities, Amanda missed a PERFECT opportunity to projectile vomit all over David. Now THAT'S a damn shame!
Why would Tad set up a meeting in the guise of being someone else in a place where he is VERY well known? I'm surprised 15 people haven't stopped by his table to say: "Hi Tad!"
Yup, Dr. Sinclair WAS in love with Richie and it sounds like he was one of her patients. It's hard to imagine how she could sit there with a straight face and talk about how patients need to be heard and what a strong bond, even love, a shrink has with a patient. All I've seen her do is be nasty and yell at her patients. I'm starting to have fond memories of Annie smashing Dr. Sinclair's face into the top of the pointy dresser. It appears I've developed quite the hate-on for this bitch. Maybe it's the dark eyebrows with the blonde hair. Is it supposed to be a subliminal message that an evil person lurks beneath a light exterior, or just a fashion choice?

Oh, and Dr. Sinclar is also wearing a necklace that conveniently has a large hoop on the end of it, all the better to grab hold of it and yank. So she can have her earlobes ripped out AND get a nasty burn on her neck when someone grabs the necklace off of her, too.
JAR tells Colby that Amanda is pregnant and that the baby is his. Well, that pretty much cinches the deal -- the baby can't POSSIBLY be his NOW.
If it were anyone other than Greenlee who was watching Emma when Emma burned her hands, Ryan would have RIPPED THEM A NEW ONE! Instead, he thinks it's just downright ADORABLE that Greenlee was actually baking cookies! I think I'm going to puke.
Doesn't Amanda have any locks on her yacht?
Has Brot told his MOM he's alive yet?
I DO wish they would stop jumping around so abruptly. Dr. Sinclair accuses Aidan of faking being a paranoid schizophrenic in one scene and the next thing we know he's listening to Annie through the vent again. Also, Sinclair knows Aidan keeps sniffing around Annie to an obsessive degree so WHY would she allow them to have rooms right next to each other?
Maybe they should team up Dr. Sinclair with David -- they seem to have similar goals in life, i.e., they derive great pleasure in making everyone around them MISERABLE, often under the guise of "helping" them.

Let me get this straight -- Everyone who loves Kendall was taking shifts sitting with her at the hospital before her heart went south -- then she has a HEART TRANSPLANT and no one is there but the doctors and nurses?
Erica tells Amanda to take the rest of the afternoon off. So Amanda leaves. Without her purse, without any car or yacht keys (unless she's hiding them in a VERY small hiding place somewhere under her dress) and without so much as a sweater, even though they've made it quite clear that it's VERY cold out.
Did I miss something? When did Amanda decide NOT to have an abortion. I recall her running into David, Jake and JAR and rescheduling her appointment because of all the interference from these men, and the next thing I know she's already made the decision not to have an abortion because she's decided to go through with the pregnancy.
Ah, NOW we're seeing a glimmer was what the doctor's fucking problem is with Annie -- she's obviously PERSONALLY pissed off that Annie killed Richie. At least I HOPE that's her problem, because she's certainly being an aggressive BITCH about it.
It's about TIME someone noticed that "Fusion's" in the posters/advertising is sometimes missing the apostrophe! That was pointed out on rec.arts.tv.soaps.abc a LOONNNNG time ago.
Poor Thorston Kaye, having to say those INANE lines about Kendall's heart. Saying that since she doesn't have her OWN heart anymore means it might not sound the same when he puts is head on her chest and that she won't have the same feelings for him because it's not "her heart" is one of the most ASININE things I've ever heard! She might stop loving him because a) he fathered a child with her own sister without ever mentioning it to her, and b) he shot her brother in the head. But that will having nothing to do with having someone else's heart beating in her bony chest and everything to do with Zach's behavior and decisions. She might also have her own doubts and conflicted feelings about having her brother's (or anyone ELSE'S) heart in her chest and might push Zach away, but that would be a psychological problem on her part, and it wouldn't cause her to stop loving Zach.
Yet another loony-bin no-no by Dr. Sinclair: Dangly pierced earrings. She's just BEGGING for an inmate to rip her earlobes apart when they grab the earrings and yank really hard. Her overall bitchiness and REALLY bad "techniques" make that scenario a DISTINCT possibility.

Why did Opal ask Krystal to Confusion to talk? Krystal is an ADDICT, so Opal invites her to a place where everyone is DRINKING? In any case, there is lots of loud music playing, which is not really conducive to talking.
WTF? How did Amanda manage to get JAR up out of the water? The drop was obviously more than a few feet. Even with a ladder he would have to actively climb it HIMSELF to get out of the water, yet he's there sputtering on the dock asking what happened. Oh PUH-LEEZE! There is no way in HELL she would be able to push/pull him up out of the water on her own.
I LOVE it when Angie gives her talk-to-the-hand gesture! She used it with David Hayward in this case.
If Tad knows Krystal is struggling with drugs, why is he offering to let her take Jenny to swimming class? Should he really trust her with DRIVING their child? As Opal subsequently pointed out, if David had called while Krystal and Jenny were in the pool, Krystal could have taken off to go to David and left Jenny bobbing in the pool like a cork!
In a side note, why is Jenny being taken to swimming class in January? Even if it's an indoor pool (and I assume it IS), her hair would get wet and it's COLD outside. Was Tad planning to blowdry it before taking her home?
I guess my prediction about Amanda getting hypothermia was wrong. JAR got it, though.
Krystal is so fucking gullible it's downright PATHETIC! She desperately wants to believe that David only has good intentions toward her and she'll believe ANYTHING he says to foster that notion. I can't believe she's buying his innocent act as far as the pills go -- the ONLY information she has about them is what HE told her -- she doesn't even know what they ARE!
Krystal tells Jesse that she brought the pills because David told her to, but she's not taking them anymore. Then why didn't she get rid of them instead of keeping them around to tempt her?

Kendall is on immuno-suppressive drugs. I'm guessing Prednisone or a similar steroid is included in the mix. So, will Kendall gain weight and get a puffy face? BWAAHAHAHHAHAHAHAA! Sometimes I crack myself up 
Is it cold in the studio? For once the women, (and men) except for Bianca and Reese, are wearing coats, and they're INSIDE the hospital. Where are the usual spaghetti straps? Erica's even rubbing her arms through the sleeves, although that can be attributed to feeling desolate over the situation.
Amanda comes right out and tells Jake that she's getting an abortion. Wow, times HAVE changed! She didn't say she was not going through with the pregnancy or that she's going to have a procedure or that she's going to terminate the pregnancy -- she actually used the word ABORTION!
Erica's son was shot, declared braindead, and his heart was transplanted into her daughter. Is this REALLY the best time for Jackson to insist that they "define" their relationship?
And why is Ryan pushing Bianca to get married on Valentine's Day, even though she wants to postpone it? Her brother just died and her sister is in the recovery room after a heart transplant. Is this REALLY the best time to force her to deal with her ambivalence about marrying Reese? I think it's perfectly reasonable for her to postpone the wedding for a while, given ALL the circumstances. Why doesn't he just STFU? He and Greenlee can go ahead and have their ridiculous, nauseating wedding and have their wedding and anniversary all to themselves (because no one else ever thinks of getting married on Valentine's Day). What an ASS!
Am I the only one surprised that Reese didn't topple over when Zach handed Spike over to her, given that she already had Ian on the other arm?
JAR stumbles off the dock and into the frigid water. Amanda, unable to summon help quickly, takes off her coat and jumps in to save him. I'm predicting that she will get hypothermia and be in danger of losing the baby, which will prompt her to decide that she DOES want the baby after all. Maybe THIS was what the coat thing was about -- they needed to stress how cold it is.

Who lets a 4-yr-old drive a motorized car IN THE LIVING ROOM? Don't they have a ballroom (or at least a Rec/Wreck room) for that? Talk about not setting BOUNDARIES!
How long will it be before Little Adam gets the notion in his head to try to drive the replacement Duesenberg (given that Krystal blew up his father's previous Duesenberg)?
Why is Adam BURNING Little Adam's car? What I can only imagine the kind of toxic fumes that are now permeating the house! I think taking it outside and using a sledgehammer would have been just as effective.
Is Erica LEGALLY Josh's next of kin? She's his biological mother, but she aborted (or THOUGHT she had aborted) him early in the pregnancy. His mad scientist foster-father saved her fetus and implanted it in his wife and Josh was raised as their son. Madden was murdered and Josh was accepted, more or less, into both the Kane and Martin families, but was anything done LEGALLY? Unless something has been legally remedied in the meantime, I don't see how Erica IS the next of kin. Even if she is, isn't Jeff Martin ALSO the next of kin since he is the bio-father? For that matter, did Josh designate that his organs should be donated in the event that he dies?

Angie looks MUCH better with a V-neckline rather than a squared one. The squared one makes her look kind of squat (kind of like me when I wear a hat).
The judge says she based her decision on what she had seen in court AND on the evaluations that had been submitted. Evaluations? WTF? TWO days had gone by since Tad returned (if THAT)! How could the court have POSSIBLY done any kind of "evaluation" on Krystal's mental state and ability to care for her child? How about drug testing? It doesn't sound like any of that was done for EITHER parent. For that matter, no testing was done on the pills that fell on the floor of the court, and Krystal never stated what they actually WERE (not that she even KNOWS) or how she obtained them. David looked shocked when he saw them spill to the floor (even though HE deliberately caused it to happen). No one asked HIM what they were, either. I can't believe NO ONE inquired as to the nature of the pills! That whole hearing was a total CROCK!

OMG! Krystal actually took some pills WITHOUT milk!
Dr. Sinclair (her name is finally in the IMDB so I know what it is) is a LOUSY shrink! Ugh! She's bitchy and touchy in a hands-on kind of way and leading, jumping to answer her own questions FOR the patient. The foundation of a patient/therapist relationship is trust from the patient and listening from the shrink. A rapport has to be established so that the patient will open up. I wouldn't tell Dr. Sinclair ANYTHING. She seems downright hostile.
Annie FINALLY mentions Emma. I thought it was quite odd that her memory returned, but she didn't appear to have the slightest thought for her daughter -- only about Greenlee and Ryan. It made me think if Casey Anthony who constantly seems surprised and annoyed that everyone else is focusing on her missing (and then found-dead) daughter instead of HER.
And now the shrink says Greenlee needs to see Annie. Oh yeah, THAT'LL help everyone. Again: WORST. SHRINK. EVER.
It was pretty hard to take ADAM on the stand testifying against Krystal, but I about CHOKED when he said he strongly believes a child belongs with its MOTHER! This from a man who has tried over and over and over again to take his children from their mothers. It's pretty tough to take ANYONE in that courtroom seriously or feel sympathy for ANY of them.
Why is Jake still being such a bastard to Amanda? It makes NO SENSE! He's acting like SHE did HIM wrong when HE'S the one who broke off with her to chase after Taylor. I don't buy the "nasty drunk" excuse, either. Being drunk doesn't tend to TURN people mean -- it just allows people to say what they REALLY think without the usual inhibitions. That is SO out of character for him to be nasty to her like that! I understand his anger toward David and toward his ex-wife who ran off with a trucker, but what did Amanda do to him other than give him GREAT sex? Yeah, she's too free and easy with sex for her own good, but so is HE!
Oh, it's about TIME someone said something about Krystal taking drugs!
Krystal testifies that Babe was an "angel on earth". OH BARF!
Speaking of barfing, Amanda suddenly has to make a run for the ladies room to puke, and we all know what THAT means. She's probably pregnant and she won't know if the father is David or JAR (or even JAKE, for that matter), and neither one of them is a prize, although it WOULD make for some nifty child-support ... until one or all of them tries to take the baby away from her and/or one of the four of them kidnaps the poor little thing.
