Otalia - 4/14/09, Prt 5

[@malong21]

does any1 notice that when she starts putting the roses on Gus's grave, she first places 3, 2 tall(representing her an Natalia) and a 3rd one shorter(representing Emma)...gotta love the symbolism here:-) I cant believe how much this storyline has pulled me in...WOW!:-) amazing

[@Sharpay452]

Aha when Buzz asks Frank if he loves Natalia enough to let her go. Cuz he knows Olivia does! This episode is killing me even knowing what happens!

[@tannsolo]

Me too. I wish we had a thread to talk specifically about how this storyline dovetails with our own stories -- I never thought a soap opera would have me reflecting on my own life, would provide me with insights about my own behavior. THANK YOU, GL!!! Thank you CC and JL; thank you Otaliafan.

[@glawi06]

This is so powerfull. "When you gave me this gift,this heart,it was open and generous,suddenly its like I could feel everything you felt for her. That is brilliant writting. It blew me away. I keep coming back for this.

[@meldecite]

I love that line it gets me every time. " and a love that would have me walk away from the one person that I would give anything to keep."

[@giasony99]

The WRITING for Otalia is just so fraking amazing! Seriously... Every single scene, the subtext, and each character's journey, and not just Nat's and Liv's, but Buzz and Frank's as well. I love how Natalia's love and faith changed Olivia, and she couldn't have said it better.

[@uncannyresemblence]

I love this one. When she says she feels like she's broken her new heart I just want to cry. CC is amazing.

[@xRaex21]

I can't not cry at this. CC is at her best, no one can deny the feelings she is portraying in this scene.

[@saraijah1]

This performance by CC deserves a standing ovation, my goodness, I keep watching it over and over again. The idea of loving someone enough to let them go. Been there- done that. Thats true love and unbelievably painful. BRAVO CC

[@wendirobbins1045]

I love this episode. It breaks my heart. CC is absolutely amazing. She deserves all the emmys in the world for this.

[@PozoBlue]

holly jesus, I never ever cry, like ever....but I have to admit i have tears in my eyes with this...so beautiful, so heartfelt, so gut-wrentching....perfection...utter perfection...

[@Carolyn1202]

Ha ha , yes we do, samkarfan, you are not alone. One of the best written and acted scenes I've ever.... um seen!

[@lesmith820]

Crystal Chappell deserves and Emmy for such and outstanding performance!

[@valary740]

I sear it never gets old. Its years later and I could still it over and over again. CC & JL acted the hell out of these characters. and GL squandered them! At least CC made Venice for us all.

[@D-MARIE77]

YEARS LATER AND I'M STILL WATCHING THESE VIDEOS THAT I LOVE. 💜 #OTALIA 💜

[@wavydezy]

Years later and I’m still in awe… I love them sooo much ❤

[@witchlesbian]

OMG...the line "In a love that would have me walk away from the one person that I would give anything to keep..." so much describes 2008 for me...it was a year of letting go of the one person I would give anything to keep...I sooooooooo see myself in Olivia...Thank you sooooooo much CC and The Guiding Light for giving this beautiful creation to us...you speak our hearts!!!

[@65alias]

right there with you countess! I am going to start drinking soon... "I promised the doctors I'd take care of my heart but I think I broke it".... my heart is broken watching this. CC is just so impossiby talented. That woman is so under-rated. The entire world should see this talent.

[@witchlesbian]

Ms. Crystal Chappell...I wonder if you aware of your utter brilliance in playing this scene...I am is sooooooooo much awe words can not describe the depths that I have been moved by your performance! I'm having a reverant moment in honor of you and the shear beauty of this portrayal! I would follow you to the ends of the earth and back again to watch your total genious! Thank you for blessing us with this! If it was in my power I'd give you the Emmy NOW!!!

[@giasony99]

I thought that too, there are so many little subtle great moments to their family. Like Emma and Liv put their hands together for grace when they were over at the Spauldings. I love the writers' attention to detail.

[@ajblois]

I've watched Crystal Chappell on both Days and GL through the years on and off....but this is by far her finest work.

[@miiiOne]

gosh I don't have any words that are worthy describing how I appreciate this series! It's serious about this issue, it shows depth and feelings. I hope, at least, it can make some people think over their lifes, like it does to me

[@tiptapkey]

"Do you love her enough to let her go?" Wow. Buzz is actually questioning if Frank loves Natalia like he knows Olivia does. Frank does -not- love Natalia enough to let her go. He freaks the HELL out when Buzz even hints at it. Both he and Nat are grasping at an idea, a concept of love that they so very very much want... that they're pretending exists.

[@kariba27]

I could watch this a million times and still want to see it again.

[@MsDenib1863]

kariba27... Still watching after all these years.

[@setsuna55]

Olivia, you're feelings weren't transmitted when you got Gus' heart! Your feelings come from your own being. Thank goodness you've realized that!! ^^ (Makes me a happy camper)

[@melstermel]

I do believe that she got some of her feelings from Gus's heart but i also believe she got to see what a terrific person Natalia really is... I wish i could half as good of person as she is..She brought out the good is Olivia that was always there but she was affraid to show it for fear of getting hurt.. they are so perfect for each other ... i miss this show so much and this is the second time i have cried over this soap opera.. such great acting... thats what makes it so believable..

[@Jehannehowru]

I liked that song at the end too. Death is hard; a broken heart is like a death. I thought the writer's brilliantly used where death and a broken heart cross paths...pain and separation. Magnificent writing!! And the acting is perfect.

[@giasony99]

I know!!! The writing, amazing!!! The writers along with CC and JL deserve an Emmy!

[@renville68]

OMG, OMG, OMG, OMG, OMG...no other words....bawling now.....heart breaking for Olivia. Have been rightly CHAPPELLED!!

[@xcountrygrl]

CC did an amazing job in the cemetery scene......there was so much emotion I cried all three times I watched it lol

[@belluccilover]

Cripes can I relate. I'm usually stoic but here I sit sobbing like a little girl. I'm stunned that a soap is making me feel all these feelings.

[@Amally14]

CC is such a great actress. This is like the first soap to make me cry

[@wildysary]

I almost cried...touching scene...CC is talented...I love Olivia's character and I've never been interested in soap operas but these two have catched me...I love this story!

[@vvogler]

I fell in love with Crystal Chappell as Dr. Carly Manning on Days, but her role as Olivia (I started watching in January) is unbelievable!!! Her acting is amazing! If I didn't know she was married to Michael Sabatino, I'd believe she could fall for a woman!

[@melstermel]

The Acting is so awesome...I feel everything she does and that is good acting....

[@Aimestyler]

These 2 actresses better get a daytime Emmy. They have put their heart and soul into this storyline.

[@Sunflowers9191]

Wow, CC is just amazing.. She made me cry when Liv did

[@djshiva]

The song at the beginning of the cemetary scene is "Gave It All Away" by Naimee Coleman.

[@janet4luv]

The whole scene at gus grave is friggin awesome. still love every word. it was the perfect spot for olivia to break down/say goodbye to nat.

[@valary740]

I luv hearing Olivia actually saying that she LOVES nat in the beginning!!! I love livs comments about making fun of nat in the beginning "a chipper Mary Poppins!!! LOL Reminds me of how they used to be. CC looks absolutely beautiful today!!! And the emotions she is showing...Amazing!!!

[@BenWarrenFan]

The actress who plays Olivia just blows me away....her emotion is so raw and real. The character has come a long way. I hope the actress (Chrystal?) is nominated for an Emmy, she deserves it!

[@EZMist]

Standing ovation for Crystal Chappell!!! Well, after I pick my heart up off the floor. Brava. Seriously.

[@rhyfeddu]

A privilege. Exactly. It's such an privilege to watch such good work - and the bonus is that I can relate to it on some level. But then, many could - love is what we all have in common...

[@Ot4li4Ifall]

=( so sad! I have watched this over and over and still every time I watch it I burst out crying!

[@winterbourne14]

oh wow.. that was good acting by cc. you just feel your heart crack a bit. thanks so much for the upload! you're doing great service for us..

[@kateeroxmysox]

"I promised the doctors i would take such good care of this heart, but i swear to you based in how i'm feeling right now i think i've broken it...." JESUS Crystal Chappell is amazing. She absolutely *nailed* this scene. i'm CRYING!

[@debssofs]

Best scene ever!!!! Olivia (CC) is amazing!

[@neixannd]

This scene at the cementery..when she talked about letting go...was very close to home...and made me remember that pain all over again..

[@pennyann27]

this is just soooo deep. I love CC. She is just amazing.

[@RobinHF1013]

Jesus, CC is AMAZING. The cemetary scene kills me... KILLS ME!!!

[@lezwild]

i have been watching soaps for a long time now, but i have 2 that i have never ever felt this way about a storyline never i mean CC is the BEST soap actress i have ever seen from her playing carly on dool to this i am speechless. i agree that they robbed her on the emmeis i mean she an JL are the only reason why i am watching Revas sl is not all that but anyway all i can say is GOD bless CC and JL

[@D-MARIE77]

"NOW I HAVE THIS GREAT BIG LOVE THAT I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT TO DO WITH". OLIVIA

[@countess77]

frank get a clue man. crystal knocked it out of the park again. i thought yesterday was rough but the writers know what they are doing and crystal is making us feel every bit of sorrow olivia is feeling. i'm not a crier and i'm not a drinker but damn if this woman isn't causing me to do both. crystal is the sh*t.

[@megssyd]

i'm not much of a crier but oh wow....I don't know how much more of this I can take! Thank you so much for uploading these clips, without you I would never have found this amazing couple:D

[@janet4luv]

this is one of my top five epis. even though, i know the words that oliv is going to speak, it stills breaks my heart to hear them. CC YOU ROCK!!!

[@miekhead]

LMAO I still do watch it like every day - it helps me sleep!

[@tiptapkey]

Oh gosh, I've never wanted to actually hug someone through the tv like I did with Olivia during this scene. I identify with her so much it absolutely annihilates my heart.

[@SuperAlias11]

Came back to add to favourites! Miss this.

[@HiThereILoveU]

By the end of Olivia's speech I have to admit I was in tears and literally begging her to just tell Natalia how she feels

[@thorngenx]

I don't believe the feelings Olivia developed for Natalia came from Gus's heart at all. Like happens quite often, those who died get a "free pass" on a lot of things cause of respect for the dead. Watch the episode with Gus' last thoughts as he slipped away. He called Harley the love of his life and even wondered where his relationship with Olivia might have gone with more time. Gus and Natalia's marriage seemed to be unraveling before the accident if anything.

[@D-MARIE77]

R. I. Crawford YES, I REMEMBER THIS

[@rock4you8]

this is hard to watch without wanting to cry

[@bosyeux2]

great idea, maybe some kind of e-award/card that we could all sign or something like that. that way everyone that wanted to be part of it could be. imagine sending them something with thousands of "signatures" from around the world, (not a petition) but a big thank you and acknowledgment that no matter how this all goes, we're grateful for what they're doing.

[@scratrat]

I almost had a tear there & I'm a emotionaless bitch who never cries lmao. All hail the power of the Chappell!!!

[@emalinourie]

OMG I am in tears. I am a freaking watering pot. What does CC have about her that she has transformed me so?

[@vvogler]

I have found the song that plays at the end of this scene on 4/15/09 where Olivia takes Natalia back to the church. It's Kyler England "Clean Slate". They use another Kyler England song when Olivia on another day put the necklace on Natalia in the kitchen, it's Bells and Whistles.....I'm still searching though....

[@musicaldramaqueen]

That crow at the end: "kiss her, you hot mess"

[@janiepug]

I think the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences should just mail Crystal her Emmy today.....because no other actress can even come close to Crystal's work!

[@laminage]

@thorngenx You're right. Gus married Natalia because he felt guilty for the fact that she raised Rafe all on her own without him. Natalia had to remember that a Child doesn't keep a man and woman together.

[@Prolui]

This scene is like, epic, i think. Um, and when Natalia walks onto the scene, I think i almost squealed or made some sort of guttural noise. Wow.

[@janemansfield73]

Agree. Next time I fall in love I am going to expect SO MUCH!!!!

[@CoffeeLiberal]

ok first, i love that buzz asks from if he "loves her enough to let her go". because he knows that is EXACTLY what olivia is doing which means she truly does love her. and i have a feeling buzz might think that olivia is actually better for nat than his own son haha. second, olivia, if you know nat feels the same way about you, and can plainly see how somber she has been re wedding stuff, why do you think sentencing her to an unwanted life is good for her??? miserable housewife is a good thing?

[@tannsolo]

I've been thinking about this. It seems, anyway, given this storyline -- I mean, even an EMMY would really not cut it. I'm thinking maybe we should go all out and present the entire team, not just CC but the writers, everyone, with something, some new award -- we KNOW this is the most real, most well-written, the most respectful, the most un-sensationalized/non-commodified relationship between two women on TV. And friends OR lovers! I mean, they just don't show deep friendship between women!

[@ColeyB26]

OMG....there are no words....

[@shazjacques9804]

can you get this otalia series of guiding light on dvd x

[@animejock]

My heart is breaking, oh my god.

[@jair4ever1]

...OMG! I CAN'T HELP MY TEARS FROM FALLING! I'M HURT TOO!:((

[@ConfusedLostSouls]

heart wrenching...

[@garterra]

Thank you so much. I really appreciate it. I'll let you know when and if I locate the song.

[@sjg500]

Oh how I miss these two. :'(

[@krystynakryss]

Good gosh, this ep got me emotionally drained big time... And I'm only watching! I can only hope that JL and CC got their own way of dealing with this turmoil to keep them sane, I myself am surely about to go bonkers. Besides, if CC were to scream at me that she's in love with me, I'd either drop dead on the spot or ravage her immediately... Blup, time to go to bed.

[@kellyriker23]

Gosh is it hard to find the name of the song that plays at the end of this clip! I've shazamed it on iPhone and nothing. Surfed the net and nada. I hope somebody out there knows the name because there are lots of us who want that song.

[@RebeccaHenderson-tx2zr]

Title of song is what if I'm wrong

[@melstermel]

jipped can you ripped off.. yeah that is what CC was when she didnt win the emmy for best actress.. where they not watching the same she as me .. what where they thinking this scene alone should have won her that emmy..not too mention countless other memorable CC moments.. She is a amazing actress...

[@wavydezy]

2:53 bravo buzz… finally the most important question Frank needs to answer

[@bosyeux2]

your english is fine... i was just going to write basically what you wrote. thanks for saving me the trouble

[@bogguss1981]

the song is called WHAT IF I"M WRONG and its by Ephren Eppage.

[@astabasta63]

Oh man...she got me...I'm crying like a b*tch...

[@Phototropic00]

Ooooo, I like the idea of an award or card or something. Kudos!!

[@vvogler]

Has anyone figured out that song that's playing at about 3:00?? I've searched the internet for every line I can discern, but I've had no luck. I've already got the song memorized from watching this video so many times....I want to create an OTALIA music compilation....

[@witchlesbian]

Join us...give into the addiction...it feels great!!! To have a total grin on your face all day because you know you get to go home to Otalia Tivo'd waiting just for you to watch over and over and over...This addiction is good...it's an addiction to LOVE!!! Come...join us!!!

[@bosyeux2]

tell me where you post it tannsolo. or send me a copy. true it's sad that we have been so starved for good story-telling and seems bizarre that so many people around the world hang so tightly on to this. the work of living will never be done... but i think it's also important to enjoy our capacity to be moved by it. i've found the discussion around this s/l as moving and amusing as the story itself. i am invigorated by it all.

[@Wolbeat]

Aww... My heart kinda broke a little too there at the end :'-(

[@bobbycornell1854]

You don't want to know my opinion

[@kaitlinn33]

heaven! i could taste heaven right there GOOD GOD

[@DobieLove007]

anyone know the song playing at the end of that scene?? kinda liked it.

[@starmaxred]

Just when you think you've seen these clips and noticed everything, someone mentions something like a frackin crow and gives you a new perspective. LMAO!

[@vvogler]

Are you talking about BPD? I can't find "Name That Tune"....

[@Rad200G2B]

Do we still not know the song at the end of this scene?

[@belluccilover]

all hail CHAPPELL!

[@littlefurnace]

Oh you're right, i didn't realize. I saw the three as them and jellybean, but then when she started laying more i just assumed that she was putting them all down. Good eye!

[@tannsolo]

I second each of you, on both topics. Just wrote a long response about 1) B's idea for celebrating them and 2) the sorry state of representation of love between women, but seeing as how they're really OT, I will send them off the thread.

[@rock4you8]

EMMY AWARD GOES TO Crystal Chappell

[@sjg500]

Could some one please tell me the name of the song right at the beginning of this clip? thanks in advance :)

[@pollohige]

yeah that is real love
