The fact that the judge didn't even react to that is jaw dropping. It says it all that Ridge willing admitted that he would be a great father to Bridget even if he stayed married to Taylor. That argument undercut Brooke's what about the children argument, which is her whole reason for Ridge picking her.

And Taylor is criminally negligent because she knew Ridge was alive when she married Omar. I think it's called bigamy 🤷

[@50CCSHUN]

Right. And I dont know why the judge at the last scene put that question in Ridge's head. It's irrelevant to the case. It's not the judge's business to know who wants to be with. This hearing only should be about whether Taylor and Ridge's marriage is valid and it is! All the other subsequent marriages (Brooke and Omar's) are technically invalid, no matter if one was done in another country.

[@NewYorkNick0607]

*Sally the Storyteller* Sally displays two storytelling modes in this episode. First she acts as the *Greek Chorus,* commenting on the main action in the A storyline (first with Darla and then with Eric). And when she says, "this isn't a catfight" (12:22) she's basically echoing my argument from episode 2074 that cat-fighting _isn't_ appropriate for Taylor and Brooke. Indeed she defends the dignity and strength of these women and in so doing, she makes the case for a romantic triangle storyline. Then Sally shift gears and tries to become a *Plot-Driver,* offering to take Eric down her long winding road: "I'd be happy to do the driving" (18:56). It's like she's trying to jump start _her own_ romantic triangle storyline with these overtures to Eric and side-swipes at Stephanie. Unfortunately for Sally, such a storyline will kick off but not in the way she hopes. Once again her attempt to drive the plot will end with her under the tires.

[@annieo6527]

Great observation! And yes, it is as if she is using the Taylor/Ridge/Brooke triangle as a way to encourage Eric to start a triangle of his own with her and Stephanie. She is describing the triangle in a much more dignified way than it actually deserves, as if trying to "sell" the idea to Eric. And it is possible to draw a straight line from her "what this must be doing to Eric" comment and her advances later on in the episode - she senses that Eric is feeling vulnerable at the moment because _he_ doesn't have two women fighting over him, and so Sally sets out to give him just that. By the way, I LOVE your final sentence!

[@jasesherman7629]

Great observations Nick. I like your close-readings of Sally's lines.

[@NewYorkNick0607]

Thanks *Annie* and *Jase!* ❤❤

[@NewYorkNick0607]

@@annieo6527 Yes exactly there's a connection between Sally's commentary on the A storyline and what she's trying to achieve in her own storyline (impress Eric with her views on love and life). Sally is being used in two ways here: there's what the _writers_ want to achieve and what the _character_ wants to achieve. The writers want to defend what could seem like a demeaning cat-fight between Taylor and Brooke and so they're using the old "character defense" trick with Sally. While their attorneys are defending their positions in court, Sally is defending Taylor and Brooke's dignity and the integrity of the storyline in the Court of King Eric. That's what the writers want. But Sally _the character_ also wants Eric and so she's using this situation to show him a different/softer/compassionate side to her. But I'm not sure either one is effective because 1) Sally is an unreliable narrator and doesn't have a lot of dignity and integrity as a character to bestow on Taylor and Brooke and 2) while she might _amuse_ Eric, Sally isn't actually turning him on.

[@annieo6527]

@@NewYorkNick0607 yes, it doesn't really work because when _Sally_ says something is dignified we don't necessarily believe that coming from a known thief who used to get ar rested in drag. Sally is a lot of fun but she is hardly the right person to judge whether someone is or isn't making a fool of themselves. Also, it isn't true because we have _seen_ Taylor and Brooke lose dignity in this storyline already (especially Taylor), and I would guess most viewers think it is degrading for both characters to go through all this trouble to be married to a man who can't even answer the simple question of who he wants to live with. Also note the subtle connection between Sally and Darla discussing Macy's "double engagement" and then pivoting to Ridge and Taylor's "double marriages".

[@lil_jon411]

Nice to see Eric and Steph are standing by what they said earlier about “Thorne being their top priority”, yet their more concerned with ridges drama of which wife he wants to be with than the son facing the death penalty

[@andream5998]

At least Stephanie has talked with/about Thorne and visited him. Eric has no concerns for Thorne or any of his other children only Rigde, or actual Brooke. Everyone knows Eric only cares about himself and the hoegans and gives Rigde just a thought when he is Brooke and can sleep with Brooke through Rigde.

*Who's Ready for Another Scoop?* 🍨😋 This comic scene with Eric and Sally is closer to John McCook’s real life personality. IRL he’s a _hoot._ Very funny and jokey and quite the gossip. While we mostly got behind the scenes dirt from the crew, every journalist knew you could sometimes get a good scoop from John or get him to confirm something you heard. Her was so fun and loose-lipped that he sometimes let stuff slip without even meaning to. And for a long time the cast had no idea John was regularly selling them out to journalists (not in a malicious way). Remember all those stories about Kimberlin Brown and Hunter Tylo’s falling out? It was _John McCook_ who confirmed a lot of that story for us! If you don’t know, when journalists break stories and want to keep an important source anonymous, they’ll phrase it like this: “Hunter Tylo was upset with Kimberlin Brown for taking Michael Tylo’s side in the divorce,” *a source close to the actors confirmed.* And that's how most of us reported it but one non-soap magazine wrote it as *“a long time cast member confirmed.”* That was way too specific and everyone figured out the source was John and KB and HT were NOT happy with him! After the story broke, HT would talk about it openly herself to try to control the story and give her side but she was ticked off that it leaked and that John confirmed it.

[@kristinazubic9669]

John has called Eric an idiot several times 😂 he’s a great man.

[@annieo6527]

Ooh, that was a great scoop! Thank you so much for sharing! It does explain the lighthearted playful chemistry that John and Darlene have in their scenes, for example during the Rotterdam storyline - they both seemed to be having so much fun together. It's really remarkable how well JMC hides this humorous side of himself (for the most part) when playing Eric. It usually only shows in his scenes with Darlene and occasionally with Susan. You mentioned before that Darlene was typecast and very much like her character in real life. Who in the cast would you say were the most, and the least, like their characters?

[@sharonstewart4882]

Love it! Thanks for another scoop @CBosten! So funny that John is so gossipy. Eric isn't like that at all but you can see a lighter side to him in scenes with Sally. Did he get along well with HT and KB before they realized he was the source?

[@andream5998]

Oh man, who thought John was a snitch and he created Drama behind the scenes where should have been none. What a sellout. Fits his character. 😂 Never liked his character. Not really impressed with his acting. He isn't really good.

[@annieo6527]

​​@@sharonstewart4882speaking of JMC's "gossipy" side, there was an interview a few years ago with JMC and KKL where they were asked to comment on past and present co-stars. It was a lot of fun to read. One thing that stood out to me was JMC saying about Jeff Trachta that "he didn't suffer strong personalities". I couldn't help but wonder what the story was there, and who the "strong personality" was. It seemed like such an oddly specific thing to say among all the usual "he/she is a great actor and so much fun to work with". (KKL's comment on HT was also kind of telling: "Outside of work, we never really had a friendship. We had more of an acquaintanceship.")

Maybe he should play a person who is in emotional turmoil, but he comes of as bland, stupid and boring. Taylor girl, you should leave that behind.

Never was Thorne's status in the Forrester family more obvious. He would be better off at this point if he was adopted by a pack of wolves.

[@andream5998]

The multiple changes in actors from the role Thorne and the writers decisions were making him irrelevant. I never liked how ambivalent the Forresters were about Thorne. I think the problem from Eric was always, that he couldn't sleep with his favorite matress through Thorne (until much later and just for a moment). Thats the only reasons or moments he ever cared for any of his children with Stephanie. Thats why and when he tolerates Rigde, when Rigde's is with Brooke and the reason he will always push Rigde to Brooke. At this point or ever he never cared for one of his children with Stephanie and only will care for Brooke's when he can use them to hope to get logan back. He only cares for two seconds when he it's useful or benfiting him.

Married to a man who cannot and will not forget the mother of his child.).

The judge asking who Ridge he wants to stay married to is kind of irrelevant in this situation. The law is the law and if he was still legally married to Taylor which he is, kinda defeats the purpose of going to court. Even if Ridge said he wanted to stay married to Brooke he would still have to file divorce papers in regards to his marriage to Taylor. This court would not even take that up in this hearing. The judge has to rule in accordance with the law. On another note does Omar believe that the u.s. courts will rule that his marriage is valid and that the judge will deport Taylor from her own country against her will? I'm sure Brooke is hoping for the judge to do just that. He and Brooke are both completely delusional. I can't wait for Brooke to find out that her marriage to ridge is invalid. She won't become Ridge's wife legally until after Taylor "dies" the second time. It just goes to show how Brooke's idea of destiny is non-existent. Destiny is finding Taylor on St Thomas. Destiny is Taylor coming back from the dead, not once but twice. Destiny isn't finding out that you actually don't have a child with Brooke. Destiny keeps trying to show Brooke that her and Ridge don't belong together but she's to busy living in fairytale land to see the writing on the wall.

There is the matter of Taylor's note left for Ridge that she and James were intimate at the cabin. When Taylor "died", Stephanie took the note and Ridge never saw it. When Taylor left, she was consumed with guilt over not having told Ridge the truth, thus leaving the note. But now it doesn't seem to bother her. Is that part of her selective amnesia? I believe that I remember that this does become an issue later in their relationship.

[@DevikaK100]

I think it only comes up after Taylor goes missing the second time.

[@annieo6527]

Taylor doesn't know that Stephanie took the letter before Ridge could see it. From her perspective, it would be a reasonable assumption that Ridge has read the letter long ago, and forgiven her long ago. But it makes no sense from a storytelling point of view that this wouldn't come into play now, and influence Ridge's decision.

[@greggel]

this is what we call bad writing... even though Taylor became aware that Stephanie knew about the James/taylor incident, Taylor even had a discussion yesterday with James about his past romantic feelings, we still haven't seen her addressing it with RIdge or discussing it directly with her father, James and Stephanie...but alas 10 years later it became an issue with her.

I agree Taylor is better looking anyway, but you wouldn't have noticed that she looked particularly younger than Brooke at the time this episode came out. Back then, both of them had hairstyles that women their age then commonly wore. It's just that now, Taylor's hairstyle is still commonly worn today by women who are the same age as Taylor was then while Brooke's hairstyle is commonly worn today by women who are the same age as Brooke is TODAY, so your mind is playing tricks on you and aging Brooke up.
