Passions!
Chad and Whitney gaze down at their no-longer-incest-born son, Miles. They fondle each other and gush about how happy they are that they can be together now. Just in case we had forgotten how disgusting this storyline was, Chad recalls that when he and Whitney thought they were brother and sister, they continued to lust after each other the whole time. Whitney says nothing will ever tear them apart now, and Chad gazes off into the distance, reminding us that he is carrying around some sort of secret.
Over at Tabitha's house, it's been pretty much non-stop action since my last recap. First of all, Kay and Tabitha succeeded in completing the spell to lift the Mermaid's Curse from Fox, so that he can be free to have sex with mortal women (Kay) again. However, there's a catch: The last part of the spell required Kay to make Fox angry enough to kill, which she did by causing him to walk in on her and Miguel making out. Fox never let on that he'd seen anything; instead, he went for a walk and talked to Julian, who is newly bitter and evil himself over his failing relationship with Eve. Julian brought out the worst in Fox, and ever since then, Fox has been hiding the fact that he saw Kay and Miguel together. He has secretly turned evil and has been plotting Miguel's murder in a variety of ways. (The hilarious clipgasm posted by B-Side is one of Fox's murder fantasies.)
Right now, Fox is trying to convince Kay to move up their wedding date and marry him immediately. I guess this is part of some sick revenge plot. In any case, she's hemming and hawing and trying to get out of it. She tells him that they can't get married without their parents there; they can move up the date, but it can't be right away. Fox flashes back to Kay steaming it up with Miguel, and he gets crazy eyes to show us that he is eeeeeeevil now. It's a sudden transformation, and I love it. They're even dressing him more evil, in a slightly goth T-shirt and kind of thuggish hair.
Thugz rule!
Theresa is ranting to Jared in her office about the lawsuit that's just been filed against Crane. There's been a ton of action in this quarter too. This guy named Stuart is suing Crane because they stole his patent and fired him years ago, and get this - Ethan is representing him. Ethan is apparently on a mission to sue Theresa simultaneously in as many venues as possible, the other being her custody fight with Julian. But the plot is thicker than it sounds. Since my last recap, Theresa slept with Jared for the first time, but Ethan walked in on them and was totally devastated. After that, Ethan and Theresa ACCIDENTALLY HAD SEX WITH EACH OTHER YET AGAIN.
Yes, that's right. Theresa and Ethan had sex, and neither of them knew it was happening. She thought he was Jared, and he thought she was Gwen. You see, they were all staying in a hotel, and there was a power failure, and Ethan went to the wrong room and climbed into the wrong bed. I know you're thinking that there must be more to it than that - were they drugged? Drunk? Hypnotized? Nope - just brain-dead, I guess. Afterward, they both freaked out and vowed never to tell anyone, and right after that is when Ethan decided to take Stuart's case, I guess as a kind of Theresa purge.
Chris is in his new office at Crane, looking over some paperwork, when Spike strolls on in for a little chat. Chris is not happy to see him. Spike is deciding which yacht to buy with the millions that he's forcing Chris to embezzle from Crane. Chris tells Spike that it's going to take time for him to siphon off that much money. Spike says that he's interested in getting the money quickly and leaving town, but nonetheless, Chris shouldn't assume that he's going to be out from under Spike's thumb. Their relationship is going to last indefinitely. Otherwise, Spike will tell Sheridan about Chris's connection to Alistair. They discuss how Chris will transfer the Crane money from account to account, using a bunch of banking codes that he has in a binder. Um, hasn't Chris only worked at Crane for a couple of days? Seems like an awful lot of access.
You're my bitch, bitch.

I read the first 5 or 8 lines and asked myself, "What the hell is wrong with me?"
Now I'm gonna go get a beer, a cigarette, and question my existence.

Nooooooooo! No more Passions recaps for almost a whole month? What will I do? Knit? Read a book? Naah, I'll probably just catch up with some of the other recaps here that I haven't had time to read yet.
Still, I am pained by this turn of events - 3 whole weeks! Where else can you read that a witch has contracted a virus and must fly to Saturn to get a cure - and that's not even snark, that's a straight-up storyline from the show. Brilliant! I wouldn't even be able to sit and actually watch this crap but thank you for doing it for the rest of us.

What makes this show even more fun to watch is keeping tabs of daily quotas.
1. Shirtless guy
2. Someone saying "make love"
3. Someone saying "seduce"
4. Someone saying "Damn you _____"
5. Counting the memory flashbacks
Bonus: Someone saying "straight shooter" or "on the up and up".
I also loved the scene where Luis was roughing up Spike to try getting information and he then told Fancy it's perfectly legal to sneak up and strangle the guy because it's called "baiting". unreal.
the same scene had Luis socking Spike in the gut like he's a punching bag and then Spike slipping on spilled whiskey and screaming "DAMN YOU, LUIS!!! AAGGHH!!" That's a classic scene.

I sooo hate what they have done to the Fox character. Kudos on catching the different hairstyle, I keep thinking they really need to cut his hair but it does make sense that it is for the "attitude."
In other news: OOPS, Theresa and Ethan slept together! Baby number 3 much? Will she play it off as Jared's? Do I need to get a life!

it would be sooo like those idiots that write this show to make Theresa pregnant.
That woman has gotten pregnant every time she's had sex. No exaggeration either.
She got pregnant when she slept with Ethan for the first time (but she was already preg. when she slept with Julian so that doesn't count) and then she got pregnant after she stole Gwen's embryos and slept with Ethan for a second time.
... why do I watch this show? Its ridiculous and I hate the writing and half of the actors. But there's something sordidly addictive about it... God help me.

I love how Theresa just lets some guy into her hotel room rolls over, spreads her legs, boinks him good and doesn't look at his face. What a slut. It could of been the chef, desk clerk, bartender, butcher, baker, candle stick maker. She wouldn't care. What a whore!

Theresa and Ethan were drunk. She'd been drinking since early that day around lunch and he'd started drinking after he'd walked in and saw her having sex with Jared.
Theresa didn't let him in her room. She had gone to bed after Jared left to go look for some candles and was asleep when Ethan stumbled into her room that for some reason the door had once again been opened and he climbed into bed with her.

Doesn't matter how 'drunk' she was, she's still a slut. Only sluts do not look at the men they are doing, plain and simple.

I suspect that's as far back as the writers' memories go.
Ah, so now I know why someone wearing an aviary suit was pretending to be Tabitha!

Like Jyoti says, they were both drunk. In fact I think that when Ethan was stumpling around taking off his pants he mumbled something about how drunk he was...
re: "Pacific Rim Project" - Wow, I'm surprised nobody ran with the connotations of this...
Siren - her role is coming to an end, Brandi Burkhardt has been let go according to a news release. Too bad they couldn't ever give her a decent plotline!
tikilights - Whenever they say "make love" it makes me squirm and want to hurl. Seriously - can't they say anything else? ANYTHING?
