H&Alover Posted June 26 Report Posted June 26 I think we all agree about Abby not telling Mali about her mum not knowing about her addiction was a bad idea as of course he wouldn't have said anything. He's not a mind reader and would have thought she knew as Abby had been staying with her mum. Deb did seem to like him. Abby blaming him was so wrong. There must have been a reason why she didn't tell her and Deb as is the usual case in scenario's like this blamed Levi for not telling her, but Abby told him in confidence so he would have been breaking a trust. Btw Mac did her usual thing of laying on food and not just your average breakfast and saying it was on the house. As also is the case it was hardly eaten. John seemed very taken by Deb and he appeared very pleased by the fact there could be another chance for him to be a celebrant whenever that may be. It may have appeared Roo and Alf have agreed to disagree but then we saw Roo seemingly going against him again and telling Irene and Leah she was going to see Martha. Is she hoping Martha will agree with her? I like to think Alf was worried about the toll Eliza had had on Roo which was why he said no more foster kids. What's happened to this space Leah was going to give Theo? She's back ringing him non-stop - get the message girly as Irene would say. Levi got caught on the hop having just come back from Gary's and nearly told her how Theo was but as soon as Leah said Theo had banned her from seeing him he rightly wouldn't tell her anything more, I'm supposing he hadn't been aware of what Bree had done, but patient confidentiality comes into play. Then she pitches up back at the hospital and demanding to know where he is. I'm hoping it wasn't a bluff on Levi's part and she does get 'escorted' out of the hospital. Justin is going to be furious with her. Going off track I did like her dress. What Leah and others in this situation forget is what if it was them who had banned family members from knowing what was going on with them and said family members kept ringing/visiting, demanding the doctors tell them how they were doing etc they would not be happy. Looks like someone else is laying down the law about who their relative can't see - Harper telling Dana she can't see Sonny. Quote

Roo had already told Alf she was going to see Martha and he thought it was a good idea. Well, Leah did get escorted from the building, even if they did take their time a bit. Irene and Justin did only have limited success getting her to back off, but at least she restricted herself to food drops. Of course, I imagine Leah will be even less pleased Lacey is back, having seemingly walked out of police protection again.It's a bit odd that what the promo confirms are River Boys seemed to be just hanging around in a random street hoping to catch sight of her! Did they have those ubiquitous black vehicles stationed all over the area? Meanwhile, Dana is also paying social calls to Sonny. Bree did an even worse job than Mali of twigging just how much Harper knew. Given it was pretty obvious Harper hadn't been told anything about Sonny, and she'd already put her foot in it once by mentioning him being in hospital, why proceed to babble on about security and court cases as if she really loves digging a bigger hole? Harper decides to channel Leah after talking to Leah...who was being a bit of a hypocrite frankly, as she'd be all over Theo if she could regardless of the danger. With Abigail not in the episode, Mali's left to make a contractually obligated appearance worrying about her. Quote
H&Alover Posted June 27 Report Posted June 27 Seeing Leah again, it wasn't a dress but a top, still like it though. Will Martha agree with Alf or Roo though, she wasn't there and will only get Roo's version of events. Maybe Levi sent Dana to Leah to see if she could persuade her to leave. It was only Theo telling her, once again, to go, then the security guy turned up and she did leave quietly. As predicted Justin was not happy to hear from Irene she'd gone back to the hospital. Did when he said "Couldn't you have stopped her?" with Irene replying "Have you met Leah?" what was was she supposed to do, tie her to an oven, lock her in a freezer? Leah did take some restraining from dashing upstairs but did settle for cooking them meals, did 'Bill' and 'Ben' help themselves to some of it? Justin wasn't too happy about the fact Remi was paying for the bodyguards but John put him straight about how he was looking after them both as he could afford to. Justin said it did make sense that Theo was probably safer being upstairs than at their place. 'Bill' and 'Ben' are doing a much better job than the guys at the safe house - more of that later. The old "I thought you knew" trope back again this time with Bree thinking Harper knew all about Dana seeing Sonny and what the history is there, but to be fair Harper has had a lot going on so would have been out of the loop somewhat. Theo took himself off so Sonny and Dana could have some alone time. Nice little scenes with Tane, Harper and Archie and him taking Archie so Harper could have a night out, but wouldn't he have looked after him when Harper was in the city? Poor John having to vacate his own office so Harper could play big sister to Dana and order her not to see Sonny. Bringing up Dana's bad history with men didn't go down well, has she met Dana? Good interaction with John and Mali regarding Mali's huge gaff with Abbey and Deb and John saying he'd been there and got forgiven - eventually. Back to the 'safe' house, did I get wrong but did Theo tell her where he was staying now he's out of hospital, which is pretty dumb, so that is she ran away from the safe house to go and see him? I know she told him she couldn't talk or see him again but he's been texting her. A few things wrong with the set up - she's obviously got her phone so was able to book a cab, but she wouldn't know where she was would she but the cabbie found her. She managed to leave in full view of anyone inside and get in the cab. Then we saw the RB's SUV pull away following her, how come the cops never saw it before, hardly inconspicuous was it and how did they know she was there, had there been a leak? OK 'Bill' and 'Ben' wouldn't know who she was but at least they did check first with Theo if he knew a Lacey. The RB's may be a tad put off knowing Sonny and Theo had people watching out for them so will have to get instructions from Gage. Quote
CaptainHulk Posted June 27 Report Posted June 27 (edited) My god there's some serious idiocy this week on the show with some characters putting targets on their backs... Edited June 27 by CaptainHulk Quote
Red Ranger 1 Posted June 27 Report Posted June 27 (edited) Alf's episode count this week:Two, and he was credited on Friday for no appearance. It feels a bit like Theo and Lacey have gone from 0 to 100 in a short space of time, but I guess Theo is the type to fall fast and fall hard, and I can understand Lacey being enamoured by a boyfriend who's actually kind to her after being with Gage.It's hard to see anything good about her deciding not to testify though. Maybe there's some forensic evidence, but it means it basically comes down to Theo's word against Gage's, plus the little Sonny saw, which may not be enough. Attempting to work out what's going on with the River Boys is a ticket to insanity like most of these storylines. Are we to assume they followed Lacey to Theo and Sonny? If so, how did they know where she was? And why not just follow Theo and Sonny home from the hospital if they're after them? Sonny meeting Dana in public was a spectacularly bad idea though which has just got her on the River Boys' radar. Even though she was partly vindicated, it was hard to get behind much of what Harper was saying. How is this the same as before? Dana's pre-Bay boyfriend was an out-and-out wrong 'un, since which she's dated Xander, a basically decent guy, and now Sonny is another basically decent guy with some less-than-decent guys after him.So it mainly come across as her being a bossy big sister. The Parata-Newman house has had four bedrooms in the past, so even if Cash is back from Gary's, there didn't seem to be any reason for Harper and Dana to share. Unless they wanted to, which they have in the past? I'm glad Justin's keeping Leah in the loop about what he knows, even if it's not gonna make her happy. I wondered what had happened to Theo's car so that's one mystery solved! Edited June 27 by Red Ranger 1 Quote
Medea Fleecestealer Posted June 28 Report Posted June 28 a) Lacey is an idiot if she thinks her deciding not to testify means she's no longer in danger. b) I seriously doubt any police force would just let her leave a safe house without trying to stop her. c) Sonny and Dana going walkabout. Can't the H&A writers manage to produce a storyline that bears some resemblance to reality? 2 Quote
c120701 Posted June 28 Report Posted June 28 Is anyone purposely watching the titles every day? I’ve wanted them back for so long and complained about their axing so I feel I can’t skip them. 2 Quote
