I also thought that Jack was overacting, as that actor seems to do (in my humble opinion) a lot, but I have never experienced PTS so maybe that is normal? It just felt like one second he was freaking out and the next he was gung-ho to save Abby...just felt a little too quick of a transition?
I have to say, I really loved Nicole and Dan. I liked their chemistry onscreen before this show...but wow. I was actually FEELING for Nicole!!! Great, great actress as I normally find Nicole somewhat annoying and, in the past, like a poor man's Sami. But today, wow. Amazing job Arianne Zucker! Bravo!
And Dan, wow...for once I wasn't thinking about all of the women on DOOL that he's slept with, I was actually rooting for him to save Nicole and was impressed with how dedicated he was to finding her. These two were a very pleasant point of the show for me today, nearly as good as Sami/EJ...okay maybe not, but they were really, really good!
