Did the light bulb turn on?

[SarahBeth]

So watching today it seems to me that Gabi is finally understanding that Nick hasn't changed a bit. I think she really did want to believe him but when he pushed the custody agreement in her face and handed her the phone he dialed firmly telling her to get that court date rushed I think she finally saw that there has been no change at all. I would think that realizing that would also make her remember how dangerous Nick really is because she sure didn't look like she believed her own self when she told Rafe that she wants that custody agreement.

I too thought the light bulb was starting to come on with Gabi. She seemed to be uneasy about Nick all of a sudden.

 

[TylerJax]

Amen!

 

[Heather4CU]

Yeah she definitely didn't believe the words coming out of her mouth. Hopefully Rafe can see through her as easily as he sees through Sami.

 

[TinaY]

I hope so. I'm beginning to think she's the dullest wit in daytime to not see how he says, "I'm not pressuring you," one minute and he's dialing the phone for her the next.

 

[Poirot]

And telling her to tell no one about the request for a court date.

I think, Gabi still thinks Nick has changed..At the end of todays show-she told Rafe that she wanted the custody was the way she wanted it. Will is to get visitation every other week-end. But I'm not sure that she loves him the way Nick loves or is obsessed with her.

Sometimes I get the feeling that Gabi is none too bright. Her gullibility has her going back and forth not knowing what to believe.

The light may have came on or it was just the little man from the refrigerator checking the bulb

 

[Muzzaman]

Yup, I think she is realizing that Nick hasn't changed. She may be saying that the custody agreement is the way it is going to be, that Nick has changed and everything else so everyone believes she has fallen for Nick's manipulations again, but could it be possible she is saying this because she is formulating a plan to help everyone out? Kind of sacrificing herself to save everybody Nick has hurt and wronged? Maybe even changing the custody agreement behind Nick's back because she is on to him?

 

[sway]

Gabi may be playing she believes Nick has changed because she is afraid he will send her to prison.

I've been rooting for the light bulb to turn on since six months before the Horton Town Square blew up. Unfortunately I think that sucker burnt out and blew a fuse.

Thank you everyone for the laughs over Gabi's "dimness".

 

[sirramix]

I thought the same thing but then realized it was most likely that the set's backlight finally got plugged in.

 

[Soaphead]

The lights are coming on but no ones home yet ... any minute now ....hopefully

 

[redsquirrel]

She's still a couple of sandwiches short of a picnic OR a few french fries short of a happy meal.

It really annoyed me to see Fridays episode of Nick obviously manipulating Gabi.
I was hoping that she didn't really call Aiden about the court date and was just pretending to talk to him but I guess not...

 

[SalemPDiots]

I was really hoping that was the case, and obviously she was looking very doubtful, even about the little Gabi & Nick heart. However, for her to stand there and tell Rafe that's what she wants is really pushing it. He knows her well enough that maybe he can clear fog out of her head.

 

[JasonDíSpeech]

And now we know that she's just terrified of Nick. The light's still not on.

 

[SarahBeth]

While I will say the bulb is turning on now I don't think Gabi had any real awareness until Nick told her he's not pushing her and then stuck that phone in her face after dialing the lawyer. I think Gabi saw that and got scared. But what is beyond stupid is that she is trying to convince herself that she could someday care for Nick. If she feels he is bad then she shouldn't have Ari anywhere near him. The first person she needs to protect is her baby. Everyone else can take care of their own friggin selves.

But what I am so glad to see is that Maggie is seeing that Nick is getting unhinged this time around. Maybe Maggie will be the voice of sanity to Julie when she starts whining about Nick getting a bad deal.
