What the hell is wrong with Noah and Eden? These two
brats need to be put on a leash. Every time they go
outside they end up running off somewhere. They're
worse than my dog. Even after everything they've
been through they just don't listen. Nicholas
stupidly let Noah go to visit Eden at Michael's
apartment after Brad's funeral and told him to go
there and nowhere else and Noah ended up at the
cemetery. Michael let Eden go buy some milk and she
wound up at the cemetery too. How many people have
to die before these rotten kids learn to obey?
I can understand Nick being upset that Noah was
drinking, I mean Noah is stupid enough when he's
sober. But bringing up Cassie over and over again as
it relates to underage drinking is really a stretch.
Cassie did not die from underage drinking, she died
from underage stupidity. I get that the show wants
to tie her death to some kind of After School
Special about teens and alcohol, but the fact is
that Cassie wasn't drinking when she died. She had a
crush on a guy who had a few too many and thought
she could prove to everyone what a Big Girl she was
by driving him home and crashed the car. The guy who
actually did the drinking did the responsible thing
by not trying to drive, and he's still alive. So
they really need to knock it off trying to tie her
death to drinking. It makes everyone look like even
bigger idiots than they are if they don't get what
really happened.
What do elephants and Brad Carlton have in common?
Nothing, as far as I can recall. I've watched this
show for a long time and don't remember Brad ever
referring to an especial love of elephants. Yet we
heard that ridiculous story from Victoria about how
she bought that stupid little ceramic elephant for
Brad's birthday, and I sure as hell don't remember
her ever buying such a thing when they were married,
do you? That chotchke has probably been sitting
there since Cassandra Rawlins owned the place.
Next thing you know, Sharon swipes the damn thing.
Like she wanted something to remember him by and now
all of sudden this stupid knickknack is the single
most defining object of Brad's life. What, no
reliquaries lying around? Then on Friday Sharon
swiped something Nick left behind. Is Sharon going
to turn into a kleptomaniac? Maybe next week we'll
see her at the Boutique stuffing scarves into her
purse. Or is she a witch? Maybe she's collecting
personal possessions of her former lovers so she can
cast one of her voodoo spells on them and make them
all stupid for her. That would explain a lot.
Why on earth are police investigating Brad's death?
The man fell through the ice, it's not like he was
shot to death. And even if he was it's not like they
could solve the crime considering how long it took
them to figure out how Ji Min died. Nevertheless,
the police conveniently showed up at Jack's to ask
what Brad was doing at the cabin like it makes the
slightest difference in the world, just for
contrivance's sake. It was a ham-fisted way to
illustrate the guilt Sharon feels about sending Brad
away, and she assured us that "Not a day goes by"
that she doesn't think about that. I should hope
not, it's only been two days.
