What I Watched Today

(rambling, random thoughts & annoyingly detailed recaps from real time TV watching)

General Hospital

Sonny gets into Eli’s office, and a security alarm goes off. He starts tossing things around, pulling things out of drawers, and throwing them on the floor.

Eli tells Nina that he’s glad they got that straightened out. That means he can do something he’s wanted to for a while. He moves in for a kiss, and Nina says, how about them Mets? It’s a lovely night. Why rush things? Now that she’s decided to stay in Nixon Falls, they have all the time in the world.

Sonny continues to mess up Eli’s office.

Carly thanks Diane for coming on such short notice. Can she offer Diane a glass of Sonny’s scotch? That’s how they discussed legal matters, right? Over a glass of single malt? Diane thinks her, but says she’ll take a raincheck for now. The main matter is Jason. She finds it a little disappointing and disconcerting that two clients wouldn’t trust her enough to fight groundless charges, and instead, chose to resort to a dangerous, albeit daring, criminal escape. While she’s certain she can still argue that Jason didn’t kill Franco, he now faces additional charges. Carly says she’s sure Jason did what he felt he had to do. Now she has to do the same. She has some legal work she needs to go over with Diane. Diane asks, what kind of legal work? and Carly says she needs her will revised. She needs Diane to bring it up to date.

Michael sees Willow coming into the Quartermaine mansion. She says she knows it’s Wiley’s bedtime, and wanted to say goodnight before he fell asleep. He says she’s about 15 minutes too late. The little guy was out like a light. She says she’s just going to tiptoe into his room and give him a kiss; he won’t even know. Michael says, he will. A kiss from her is pretty hard to forget.

Lucy approaches Brando at the MetroCourt, and says she owes him a big, fat apology. He says, for what? and she says he probably knows Sasha is such an asset to Deception, an asset that’s expanding every day now. She never properly thanked him for saving Sasha’s life.

In the restroom, Sasha is on the phone. She says she’s a patient of Dr. Navarro’s and wondered if she can prescribe something for morning sickness… Great. She’ll be expecting their email. She puts some water on her face, and leaves. Gladys comes out of one of the stalls, and says, so. The super model went and got herself knocked up. Damn.

Brook reads about water births from her laptop. Labor pains will still happen, but the water provides a relaxing, soothing environment. She listens to a narrator talk about water birth, while hearing a women groaning with labor pains in the background. Her phone rings, and she says they’re not going to believe the video she just watched. She’s completely on board with getting Bobbie involved. In fact, she thinks it was a stroke of genius. Maxie says she doesn’t have long to talk. Her live-in nurse brought her to GH to meet her new OB/GYN. She needs Brook to meet her there. She needs to Brook the keys to the house in Beecher’s Corners, so Brook can meet her when the baby is born. She needs Brook to go there, stock it with supplies, so everything is ready… Is Brook still there? Maxie and her baby need her. Brook says, don’t worry; she’s all in. Brook opens the door to leave, and Valentin is there. He says, going somewhere?

Maxie turns around and sees Peter. She asks how long he’s been there. What is he doing there? He says, as the father, he was informed of her appointment with her new OB/GYN. He’s just there to offer moral support. She says, that’s so considerate. Fortunately her live-in nurse came with her. She introduces Chloe to Peter, and Peter says so she’s the woman Maxie chose to care for their child. It’s nice to meet her at last. Chloe says it’s nice to meet him too, and Maxie rolls her eyes.

Valentin says he and Brook had an agreement; they’re in this together. She says she wasn’t aware their agreement meant she had to clear her comings and goings with him, and he says they agreed to do what’s best for the baby. She says it might have helped if he hadn’t hired Boris Badanov to, quote unquote, shadow her. He’s about as inconspicuous as a two-legged fridge. He says, Yuri is a good man. He trusts Yuri with her. She says she knows what’s good for her baby, and he says, their baby. She says, their baby. But Valentin is the one with the long list of enemies. If anyone’s putting them in harm’s way, it’s him.

Sasha comes back, and sees Lucy talking to Brando. Lucy says, if he hadn’t acted so quickly, they wouldn’t have just lost a spokesmodel, but a very dear friend. It could have been a million times worse if he hadn’t just jumped in. He says he’s sure anyone would have done the same thing, but she says he’s being way too modest. Deception owes him an extreme debt of gratitude, and Sasha owes him her life. Gladys joins them, and says, really? Tell her more. Brando says it doesn’t concern her, but she says, her son concerns her. Lucy was saying he saved Sasha’s life. Lucy says she wasn’t there, but Sasha told her all about it, and Brando managed to step in in the nick of time.

Sasha looks at her phone, and says, thank God; a prescription for nausea. Cyrus comes by, and says, good evening, Ms. Gilmore. Small world.

Diane tells Carly, in her dealings with Sonny, she knew what she wanted to know, and made very sure she didn’t know what she didn’t want to know. And she doesn’t want to know about Carly’s new responsibilities. Carly says, okay. Then let’s leave it at this. She wants Diane to update her will in the event that something should happen to her. The house phone rings, and Carly says, of course (🍷). Thank you. She asks Diane to excuse her, and goes to the door. Ava is there with Avery, and says, Avery has been wanting to have a sleepover with her sisters, so she took the chance of dropping by. Or is this a bad time? Avery says, please?

Eli tells Nina, time has a habit of slipping away, and he doesn’t want to lose a moment with her. He starts to move in again, but his phone dings. He looks at it grimly, and she asks, what’s the matter? He says, it’s a message from his security company. There’s been a break-in at his office. She says, what? How horrible. He says, the police have already been contacted, and he’s sorry, but he has to get over there. He’ll drop her off. She says, no! She’s coming with him. He says, that’s really sweet, and she looks at her watch.

As the alarm continues, Sonny is copying information from Eli’s computer. He says, come on, speed it up. He hears sirens, and sees flashing lights through the window.

Michael asks Willow if Chase’s condition improved after he left, and she says, whatever Finn gave him, helped with the symptoms, but unfortunately, it still isn’t a cure. Chase thinks Finn isn’t telling him the whole story. He asks why Finn would withhold information, and she says, it doesn’t seem like something he’d do, but Chase brings it up every time they talk. He says, maybe Chase is just bored and frustrated. He would be in Chase’s place. The doorbell rings, and Michael lets Ned in. Michael says he can’t get used to Ned ringing the bell; it’s still his place. Ned says, not at the moment. He came back because he forgot something. Michael asks if that’s really it, and Ned laughs, and says, busted. Today was really a breakthrough. Things weren’t quite as tense between him and Olivia. They actually enjoyed themselves singing songs. It was only for a few hours, but it was really nice to be part of the family again.

Valentin says he and Brook may have gotten into this situation accidentally, but she’s carrying their baby; that means something. She says she knows she’s been hard on him, and she’s not backing down from their agreement about the stock, but that being said, she finds it reassuring knowing the baby has him. She has faith that he’ll do everything he can to protect this baby, and she finds that really comforting. Ned comes in, and asks if everything is okay. Brook says they’re just resetting some ground rules. She asks if she can go to the bathroom, or is Yuri going to follow her in there too? She leaves, and Valentin says, it’s the hormones talking, but Ned says, it’s the DNA talking Get used to it. Brook dashes out the front door.

Peter says he thinks Maxie is overtaxing herself by coming there, considering she’s still on bedrest. She says, if it makes him feel better, she had Chloe check her blood pressure before they left, and it was stable, so there’s no risk to the baby. Chloe confirms that, and Maxie says, besides it’s really important she has this meeting. She was so comfortable with Britt, and she needs to get to know Dr. Navarro. He says it’s such a shame his sister is no longer in charge there, and tells Chloe that he’s counting on her to do whatever is necessary for the baby. Understood? Chloe says, that’s the plan.

Avery says, hi, Aunt Diane, and Ava says, sorry. She didn’t know she’d be interrupting anything. Carly says, Avery is always welcome, and tells Diane, Ava thought Avery would like a sleepover with her sisters. Avery says she made a picture in school of Donna, and Diane suggests the go up and show it to her. They go upstairs, and Ava says, look at that. One smile from Avery, and it can melt even Diane Miller’s cold heart. Diane says she heard that, and Carly says she’s thrilled to have Avery there, but they both know the surprise sleepover is just an excuse. What does Ava want? Ava says, the truth.

At Eli’s office, Nina arrives with Eli, and they go inside with an officer. Eli says, they really trashed the place, and the cop says, just like all the other robberies. He’ll dust for prints, but doesn’t expect to find anything. Just another smash and grab. Nina says, this is becoming way too common in Nixon Falls, and Eli says he doesn’t understand why anyone would break in his office. He doesn’t keep anything of value there. Petty cash… He looks in the box, and says, which they seem to have found. It makes him wonder. Is this just another robbery, or is someone trying to send him a message?

Sonny puts the cash in the register at the Tan-O, when Phyllis comes in. She says he’s not fooling her. She knows what he’s been up to. She saw him put money into the register. He should be saving up for his future. That’s the trouble with him; he’s too darn generous for his own good. Not only with Lenny and her. He says he doesn’t know what she means, and she says she’s talking about Nina. How come she’s out with Eli tonight instead of him?

Eli tells Nina, he can’t figure out why anyone would break in his office. He doesn’t keep anything there worth the risk of breaking in. Nina takes off her earrings, and quietly drops them to the floor. The officer says he’ll have to get a statement from Eli, and Eli tells Nina that he has to go to the station. He’ll drop her off. She tells him not to think about that. He has to move quickly to find out who did this. She can walk; she needs to get in her 10,000 steps. He says he’s sorry their night had to come to an abrupt end, and she says, her too, but if he can help the police find out who’s behind this, then it’s worth it. He says he’ll take a raincheck, and they can finish what they started, and she nods enthusiastically, and walks out with him.

Carly asks if Ava wants to explain what truth she’s after, and Ava says, she’s sure Carly remembers that recently she asked Ava to host a dinner party; the guest of honor being Nikolas’s new Uncle Cyrus. Carly says she remembers it ended sooner than it was supposed to, and Ava says if Carly had told her the reason she wanted Cyrus to stay, she could have been better equipped to detain him. Carly says, the real reason, and Ava says she wants to play it like that? She’ll play, and she’ll state the obvious. While she was entertaining Cyrus, Jason was escaping from General Hospital. That can’t possibly be a coincidence.

Cyrus says, not to be unkind, but Sasha doesn’t look well. Is she feeling all right? She says there’s something going around, but fortunately, her doctor has something to remedy the situation. If he’ll excuse her… He says he’s heading to GH shortly. He’ll tell Brando to bring the car around. She says, no thank you, and he says he’s disappointed she’s so standoffish. He was hoping they could put past mistakes behind them. She says, like she told him, as part of her recovery, she has to be careful who she associates with. He says, what could be more beneficial to her recovery than being with the Chairman of the Board of the very hospital that saved her life? She says, the way she remembers it, the night she collapsed, he didn’t care if she lived or died.

Lucy tells Gladys, there was actually a time when Sasha was on a date with Cyrus Renault. Apparently, they ended up back at his penthouse. Power does make a man very attractive to an ambitious young woman. Gladys asks how her Brando fits in, and Lucy says, unfortunately, Sasha had a sudden heart attack, and Brando stepped in at just the right time, and got her to GH. Gladys says her son is a hero… Now it looks like Sasha and Cyrus are closer than ever.

Valentin says he wants to know what’s going on with Brook, and texts Yuri, but Michael says, in case he didn’t notice, Brook values her independence. Valentin says he noticed. He would never dream of stifling her independence, but he needs to know that she and the baby are protected. Willow thinks Valentin’s concern for the baby is touching, and Ned says it bodes well for their future as co-parents. Valentin says, it bodes well for the whole family, because once he returns the shares he acquired from Brook, the Quartermaines will be in control of ELQ once again. Ned says, this isn’t about ELQ, and Michael says they’re doing well. Let’s just take a breath. Yuri comes in, and says he got Valentin’s text. Valentin asks where Brook is, and Yuri says he thought she was with Valentin.

Deanna tells Maxie that Dr. Navarro will be with her soon; come with her. Maxie says Peter doesn’t need to stick around. She’s just having a casual meeting with Dr. Navarro. Brook gets out of the elevator, but stops when she sees Peter. Maxie suggests Peter and Chloe take this time to get acquainted. After all, hiring a nurse was his idea. Brook scoots around the corner, and Peter says it makes him happy that Maxie sees them as one big team. (Ugh.) He’s sure he and Chloe will find plenty to talk about. Maxie heads for where she saw Brook go, but Deanna comes out  of the examining room, and says, all set? Maxie goes in with her, and asks if Deanna every does private nursing. Chloe is nice and all, but she’d rather it be Deanna. Deanna says she’s flattered, but her schedule at GH is full at the moment. Brook sneaks around some more.

Valentin tells Yuri, Brook’s car is gone. Is this what Yuri calls keeping an eye on her? Yuri apologizes, but Valentin says Yuri better hope she turns back up, or he’ll be looking for another job… in the Ukraine.

Ned tells Michael and Willow, there’s a part of him that’s very proud of Brook for refusing to let Valentin boss her around. However, as a father… Michael says, we have rights, and Ned says, exactly. He knows Valentin is worried about the baby, as he should be, given his history with making enemies. Valentin listens outside the door, and Willow says she can only speak to her experience of Valentin with Charlotte, but he’s a loving, devoted father. She imagines he’ll be the same with this baby. Michael says, leave it to her to find a way to bring this family together, especially when there’s a child involved.

Deanna leaves the examining room, and Brook jets in. She says, that was a close call. She looked like a deer in headlights. If Peter would have turned around and seen her… Maxie says they don’t have much time. She gives Brook the keys to the house in Beecher’s Corners, and says they need to go over the plan one more time, just so she knows they’re on the same page. Brook says, they leave town separately, and Maxie says, so Peter and Valentin can’t track that they’re together. Whoever gets there first will set up the house, and make sure they have supplies. Brook says, and Bobbie will come to deliver the baby. She’ll wait in another room… Maxie says, no. Brook will need to help. Brook says she’s been watching a lot of videos, and doesn’t think she’s cut out to be so up close and personal with a delivery. Maxie says she knows the situation is anything but ideal, but without Britt, they have to make it work. Louise’s life depends on it. Brook says she’s right. Keeping Maxie’s baby safe is the only thing that matters, and if she has to be part of the delivery, she’ll manage. But Maxie has to manage stringing Peter along, and make him not suspicious. Maxie says Brook has to do the same with Valentin, but Brook says, Valentin’s not so bad. He hovers, but he means well, and actually respects her as a person. He’s not some creepy stalker like Peter. Sorry. Maxie says, don’t ever apologize for speaking the truth. Peter is dangerous and deluded, and he can never go anywhere near this baby. Brook says, he won’t. She promises to meet Maxie at Beecher’s Corners. She slips out, and goes to the elevator, and Maxie tells the baby, it won’t be long now, sweetie. Maxie knows her birth is going to be a little unorthodox, but as soon as she knows Louise is safe from her father, they can be together forever.

Carly tells Ava, sometimes a family dinner is just a family dinner, and Ava says, and other times, it’s a diversion. Carly needed to free Jason, and she needed to do it that night because he had to be at a very important meeting. Carly says she doesn’t know what Ava is talking about, and Ava says, she may be out of the game, but that doesn’t mean she doesn’t still hear things. The Five Families stuffed shells met for the first time since Sonny’s death. From what she heard, Cyrus was late, but he did show up, and things could have gone very differently for the Corinthos family, but apparently, they did not. Carly says, enough. If Ava has something to say, say it. Ava says she wants to tell Carly something. After everything she heard – unofficially, of course (🍷) – she has a new appreciation for Carly. She knows they have a rocky past, but they have a common enemy in Cyrus, so she’ll tell Carly again. If there’s anything she can do to help bring that man down, count her in.

Sonny tells Phyllis, Nina’s a big girl. If she wants to spend time with Elijah, so be it. He thought she was Eli’s biggest fan. She says, she’s quite fond of Eli, but the truth is, she expected Sonny to make a move on Nina by now. He laughs, and she says she recognizes sparks between to people when she sees them. Or maybe he doesn’t care as much about Nina as she thought. He says he definitely cares about Nina, and walks over to the phone.

In Eli’s office, Nina sits at his desk. She turns on the computer and puts in a flashdrive. The screen says, initializing keystroke history, and it signs her in. She says, okay, she’s in. Let’s see what she can find.

Valentin says, Brook has not checked in to General Hospital, and Ned says he’s not going to call the jail? Valentin says he was hoping Brook could resist provoking local law enforcement, since she’s pregnant. Brook walks in, and says, don’t stop. He was saying? Valentin asks to speak to Brook alone, but Ned’s not so sure that’s a good idea. Brook says she’s got this, and Ned says he never doubted it. He, Michael, and Willow leave, and Brook says, now that they’re alone, is this where Valentin tells her the deal is off?

Peter tells Chloe that he’s happy to see this is working out so well. Maxie seems to already trust her. She says, a crucial part of her job is gaining clients’ trust. He knows that, or he wouldn’t have hired her. He says, shhh… Maxie is the one who hired her. Don’t ever let her think otherwise. It’s important Chloe cultivate trust with Maxie, so when the time comes for the baby to be delivered… She says she knows the plan. She makes sure Maxie and the baby leave Port Charles, and arrive at the place in Podunk. He says, Pautuck. He likes to think of it as an idyllic getaway for him and his family, before they vanish to begin their new life, far from the reaches of everyone there who wants to keep them apart.

Dr. Navarro tells Maxie that she and the baby are right on schedule. Maxie says she can’t believe it. It won’t be long before she’s holding little Louise in her arms, even if it’s just… The doctor asks if everything is all right, and Maxie says, everything is great. Dr. Navarro says she’ll see Maxie soon, and leaves. Peter asks how it went, and Maxie says, couldn’t be better. He says, good. That’s just what he wanted to hear.

Cyrus calls Brando over, and says, the lady would like a drink. He can handle that, can’t he? Brando asks what she’d like; a martini, vodka and soda? She says she’ll be fine with just sparkling water, and Brando goes to the bar. Cyrus says she’s really taking her recovery seriously, isn’t she? and she says, more than he knows.

Gladys says, they certainly seem to have some chemistry, don’t they? and Lucy says she never noticed before, but something is going on. They’re practically giving off sparks. Gladys says she could imagine if they had kids, with her good looks and his determination, and Lucy says, that would be a devastating combination. Lucy asks Gladys to excuse her, and intercepts Sasha on her way to the bar. She asks if she can steal the face of Deception for a teeny, tiny moment, and steers Sasha to the other side of the bar. She says, oh my gosh, it’s him, isn’t it? Sasha says she doesn’t know what Lucy is talking about, and Lucy says she doesn’t know why she didn’t think of it sooner. The two of them were splashed all over Page Five. Cyrus Renault is her baby daddy, isn’t he?

Carly says she doesn’t know what Ava heard, or who she heard it from, but her main concern is keeping her family safe until Jason is exonerated, and assumes control of Sonny’s business. Ava says, Jason does have a talent for beating charges, but in the meantime, know that if there’s anything she can do to keep Avery safe, she’ll do it. All Carly has to do is ask. Diane comes downstairs and says she doesn’t see any blood on the floor. She’ll take that as a good sign. Ava says she and Carly have reached a new understanding. Please give Avery a goodnight kiss for her. She leaves and Diane asks if Carly wants to tell her what that was actually about. Carly says, Ava just paid her a compliment, and Diane says, proceed with caution. When Ava Jerome becomes a member of your fan club, it’s time to reassess. Carly says, don’t worry. She doesn’t need Ava’s approval, or her help.

Sonny says he’s starting to get worried about Lenny. Maybe Phyllis should check on him at the clinic. He’ll hold down the fort. The phone rings, and he says he’ll take care of it. Phyllis says, if she were a more suspicious person, she would think he’s trying to get rid of her. She leaves, and Sonny says, Tan-O. Mike speaking. Nina says, their plan worked like a charm. Eli and the police think it was just an ordinary Nixon Falls break-in. She came in through the back door that he left open, and thanks to the software he installed, she has access to Eli’s computer. He says, tell him about her victory later when she’s out of there. Has she found anything incriminating? She says she found something interesting that could lead her to more. He says they don’t need more; they need her out of there. She says she has to print a hard copy of the things she found, and has to make sure there’s no trace of her being on Eli’s computer. The documents start printing.

Ned tells Michael, when he sees Olivia, just tell her how much he enjoyed seeing her today. Michael says, he’s got it. he’s pretty sure Olivia enjoyed it too. Ned hopes Michael is right. He really needed this. He leaves, and Willow says she should be getting back to the gatehouse. Michael says, before she goes, he wanted to thank her. When it looked like Ned and Valentin were going to DEFCON 1, she stepped in and helped keep the peace. She tells him, what can she say? Someone has to be the voice of reason. He says he hopes she provides that voice for a very long time to come. He walks her to the door, and they say goodbye.

Valentin tells Brook, their deal is very much still on. He’s not sure why she would think otherwise. He realizes he can’t ask her to give up her life just because he’s made some enemies. She says, welcome to the 21st Century, and he says he thinks he’s come up with the perfect solution. He, Charlotte, and Yuri will be moving in. That way, they can all be together.

Peter says Chloe is outside, waiting to take Maxie home. He likes Chloe, and thinks Maxie made the right choice in picking her. Maxie says, her too, when Dr. Navarro walks in. Maxie says she remembers the baby’s father, Peter, and the doctor says, of course (🍷). It’s good to see him again. Peter says if the doctor wants to see Maxie alone, he can step out, but Maxie says, it’s okay; he can stay. She’s a little confused though. She thought Dr. Navarro said everything was okay with the baby. Is there a problem? The doctor says, the baby is fine, but she was going over Maxie’s birth plans. Dr. Westbourne said she’s open to inducing? If that’s the case, there’s really no reason to wait. She recommends they induce right now. I don’t know much about birthin’ babies, but I find it difficult to believe the doctor would suggest that if there’s nothing wrong. On the day she and the patient are supposed to be getting acquainted, no less.

Sasha tells Lucy, Cyrus is definitely not the father of her baby, and stop trying to figure out who is. She already told Lucy, the father doesn’t even know she’s pregnant. Lucy says, then Sasha needs to tell him, and let her know as soon as she does. She’ll call Sasha later; feel better.

Brando brings Sasha’s water over to her, and says, the last time he saw her at GH in the elevator, she said they should talk another time. How about right now? That night at the garage, she seemed happy, and he knows he was, so if he said or did something wrong, he doesn’t want to lose their friendship because of it. She says he didn’t do anything wrong, and he says, then what is it? What’s wrong?

Gladys tells Cyrus, she heard congratulations are in order, and he says, excuse me? She says she heard he’s becoming a father. He looks pretty puzzled, and I laugh.

Diane says she and Carly have known each other a long, long time, and while she’d never presume to speak for Sonny, she can advocate for those two little adorable girls upstairs. It’s very apparent, in the brief time she’s known Avery and Donna, even to this cold heart, how much they love and rely on Carly. Carly says she loves them just as much, and will do whatever it takes to protect them. Diane says she knows Carly is more than capable of doing that, but it comes at a price. So she’s going to talk to Carly, not just as her lawyer, but as her friend. Of course (🍷) she can change some things about Carly’s will, but please, don’t do anything to change her life, because it’s their life too. And they need her in it. Diane picks up her bag, and leaves.

Sonny says, Nina, dammit! Get out of there. She says, it just finished printing. She’s on her way. She takes some papers out of the machine, folds them up, and shoves them in her bag. Eli walks in, and asks her what she’s doing there. Sonny listens, still on the other end of the phone.

On Monday, Brando asks Sasha what’s going on, Peter asks if there’s something the doctor isn’t telling them, Cyrus says some messes are unavoidable, Nina says she can explain everything, and Brook says, over her dead body.

The only way to find happiness is to understand that happiness is not out there. It’s in here. And happiness is not next week. It’s now. – Marshall Goldsmith, American Author (Adding my favorite, when I lose weight.)

🙃 Wherever You Go, There You Are…

Another week is done, or you’ve tallied another five days on your wall, depending on how you look at it. Hopefully, if you’re not at the former yet, you’re getting closer. Or you don’t care. No matter your viewpoint, stay safe, stay fearless (withing reason; don’t be an idiot), and stay never apologizing for speaking the truth.

What I Watched Today

(rambling, random thoughts & annoyingly detailed recaps from real time TV watching)

General Hospital

Looks like we’ll be getting a new episode tomorrow. Barring all unforeseen trials and/or tragedies. If you missed today, it was posted on February 11th, and you can find it here:

Tomorrow, Cyrus says winds of change will be blowing at General Hospital, Sonny tells Phyllis that it felt like someone was important to him, and Nina wants the whole world to know what Carly and Jax did.

🐴 I saw the last half hour of The Real Housewives of Dallas, and it was much of the same old. Kary had invited the women for a weekend at an estate in Austen. Apparently, D’Andra had been saying Kary was a bully behind her back, and Kary called her out for it at dinner. D’Andra offered to leave if Kary didn’t like it, and Kary didn’t disagree. Zzzz… I think Kameron should have a box in the corner where she does diagrams of whatever’s going on, like the people who do signing for speeches. This show needs something to perk it up. I thought it was Tiffany, but she ended up breaking down in tears at the table, instead of force-feeding everyone chicken feet.

🍼 Give Me Another B…

I thought she already had three daughters. I guess that older one is such a handful, it just seemed like it.

🩰 Dancing Off…

I hope you’re watching Big Sky. It won’t be back again until April 13th, but you can catch up On Demand. It’s well worth your time. Whether you take me up on that or not, stay safe, stay assertive without being aggressive, and stay choosing not to air your gripes during a group dinner.
