My goodness, I don't even know where to begin.
The Rex/Sarah/Eric thing is just dreadful, and Nicole blaming Eric is sure to place Eric right back in the middle of it. He'll probably end up impregnating Sarah--which would result in Rex being mad, Kate trying to meddle, and Nicole not forgiving Eric. Maggie will also likely get involved, and go back to alcoholism. Sounds like a few weeks of more misery.
Thank goodness for the end of Rafe & Hope. Rafe was a fool for being so easily dragged into a trap. Now he's paying the price. Meanwhile, I'd actually be down for a temporary Ted-Hope pairing or a Lani-Rafe hookup because it would make it even more unlikely that Hope & Rafe could reunite. But I do think this would be an ideal time (OK, maybe in a few weeks) to finally put Rafe with Nicole.
The only couples to root for are Ben & Ciara and Marlena & John. Unfortunately, both of these couples are being reduced to recapping everything that's going on in the show. Why can't there be any happy or normal stories for these couples?
I really don't want Kristen to return. She's been having the same storyline for 7 years now and it's getting old. We already have enough misery to deal with as it is.
Victor's behavior is puzzling and inappropriate. I really don't want to see a rehash of him, Kate, and Philip playing house.
