Folks, I know this is an unpopular opinion here - but this is the right move.
There was a lot of drama today and a chance for actors to showcase some real emotion (even if only 3 out of 4 delivered). I felt for Julie for the first time in 10+ years. I felt worse about the House Fire based on her reactions than I did when David died.
I believed Doug was worried for Julie, and Thomas for his daddy. No other situation would have worked to coalesce those emotions.
Now the real question will be, where does the story go? I'd like to see Julie fighting Clyde. I need to see Doug resolute that his family won't be moved or intimidated. We should see some Hortons come to town to help rebuild, reminisce, and/or relocate.
But ... I worry that this fire was just a cheap stunt and we won't get any emotional payoffs from it. We'll see.
