I found the lovemaking scene today between Bo and Hope way too rushed. Hope is way too traumatized to be moving on so quickly. I will say however, that at least the sex scenes do not seem like a porn show the way they did with the previous writers, for which I am grateful.
Heather, if the bed was replaced, they did not mention it on screen, so it's probably the same bed she just slept in with Aiden
. Hopefully the sheets will have been changed
.
I found it a little weird that Bo went to Rafe and wants him to look after Hope when he is gone. Who asks someone to move on with their wife after they are gone? I still think Rafe and Hope are too far apart in age. Just recently Rafe's age was established to be mid to late 30's (as he mentioned he was 16 when his father took off, Gabi was a baby or a toddler and she is 22-23), which means he is only a couple of years older than Hope's son Shawn. Yes, there have been other pairings that were much worse, Kate/Rafe, Kristen/Brady, JJ/Eve, but most of these were just flings except for Brady who was just an idiot. Rafe and Hope are being considered a serious pairing and I just don't see it. I don't mind him being there as a friend.
I am still not liking the new Ciara. I don't like the way she's pushing her parents together without realizing her mother needs time to adjust to what's happened to her.
I did think Theo's reaction to finding out he has a sister was pretty good. He needs time to adjust but I'm sure they will be close in the future since they have already hit it off and both enjoy baseball.
I do like that Caroline is on so often now! But why isn't she (or Theresa) mourning more over Will? Strange...and does Bo even know about his death yet?
I'm more upset about the fact that Sami is not mourning the loss of her son and is more concerned about finding EJ and revenge against the DiMeras :angry:.
