Theresa is on the phone with her son, telling him that she has to work late but will see him early in the morning. She still looks depressed when Jared comes in with case files and champagne. Very professional! Theresa okays him opening the champagne. Wait, didn't you just tell your young son that you have to work late, but you'll get up early to play with him? And now you're drinking champagne with your boyfriend in the office? Classy. Jared tells Theresa that Ethan can't be that smart if he chose another woman over Theresa. They make out, but Jared finally notices that they aren't doing any work, so he leaves. But he asks Theresa to meet him in half an hour in his office, and she agrees. Really, a whole half-hour of work before the next makeout session? Those are some pretty cruel and unusual labor conditions. They might want to contact their union rep.
Spike tries to get inside Chris's head by suggesting that Sheridan is still in love with Luis. Chris claims not to be worried. He says that Sheridan is completely over Luis. The discussion gets a little heated. Chris ends up implying that he might kill Luis if Luis gets between him and Sheridan. Of course, this plays right into Spike's hands, because Spike wants Chris to kill Luis so that he won't figure out that Spike is the one who shot Chris and Pilar. Chris gets upset and storms out of the office; Spike goes with him, but after a few seconds, Spike slips back in. I guess Chris must have gone blind and deaf or something. Of course, Spike wants to steal the access codes to all of those bank accounts.
Sheridan finally walks into the police station. She fantasizes about being married to Luis. Her fantasy consists largely of Luis telling her how beautiful she is. Remember, this is her fantasy, not his, so it pretty much proves that she's a total bimbo. Suddenly she remembers her commitment to Chris, and she walks out of the police station again without Luis ever noticing that she was standing behind him for a good long while. That's some crack detective work there, Luis. For some reason, he DOES hear it when she leaves, and so he runs out the door after her and conveniently falls on top of her on the sidewalk.
Huh. Somehow I think in real life, that would hurt.
Miguel spies on Fox and Kay as they drink champagne and moon over each other. Miguel starts to pay attention to how much money Fox is spending on Kay - the champagne, the necklace, etc. - in contrast to the handful of lowly carnations that Miguel is carrying himself. For a minute, he decides that he can't compete with Fox, but then he flashes back to Luis talking to him about love overcoming all obstacles. (I love how this show airs flashbacks to things that happened like fifteen minutes ago.)
Whitney talks about the movie that she and Chad just watched, in which the surprise twist was that the guy was cheating on the girl. Chad points out that if she'd been paying attention, she would have seen a clue near the beginning of the movie. She laughs at herself for not noticing it. Then Chad tells her that he has to go to work - something about "the Pacific Rim project" and the time difference. I guess Chad works at Crane, along with everyone else on this show except for poor Miguel, who has to work on a fishing boat even though his sister is the head of the entire corporation. Chad plays the "I'll stay if you want me to" card, but Whitney lets him go.
Right on, sister. Uh, poor choice of words.
Luis apologizes for knocking Sheridan down onto the sidewalk. He asks her what she's doing there and she hesitates. They go back inside. She still won't reveal why she's there. God, I am so sick of them. Finally she kinda sorta admits that she's there because she has some kind of feelings, but her feelings are wrong, Chris, Fancy, blah blah blah. Luis straight-up tells her that Fancy is his second choice and he'd never be with her if he could have Sheridan. Wow, that was pretty unambiguous. Sorry, Fancy! Luis tells Sheridan that he will always love her. She says it was a mistake for her to come there. Yes, it was, because it really annoyed the hell out of your recapper. Sheridan finally admits that Luis is the love of her life, and they kiss. Chris walks up to the building and sees them through the window. Uh-oh.

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?
