And now, they're at a tee-ball game, and Kay is having weird blurry memories of both Fox and Miguel. Her head is spinning and Fox is hopeful that she's going to remember everything. (Don't y'all think that Kay will be pissed when she realizes that everybody lied to her about her engagement status for this whole time? I sure would be.)
As you can see, Kay's memory flashes are very, very disturbing.
Apparently, virtually everybody in town is at this tee-ball game. Isn't that just always the way? Sheridan and Chris are there - it's still the fake substitute Sheridan. I think it's kind of odd that they're at the ballpark, because Sheridan just had a miscarriage, like, yesterday. Yup - these two have been through a lot since my last recap, which ended with the destruction-by-missile of the train carrying Beth, Marty, and Alistair.
After the train went "kaboom," Luis was faced with the extremely unpleasant task of breaking it to Sheridan that Marty is dead. She was devastated and proceeded to promptly lose Chris's baby. Of course, we all know that this will just clear the path for her to get back together with Luis, but no one is really seeing it that way right now. After Sheridan lost the baby, everybody was totally devastated for about five minutes. Luis and Fancy were particularly upset, because they were both there when it happened. But then they decided to drown their sorrows with a beer at the Blue Note, which is the new hot-and-happening set on Passions these days.
Now, in Passions time, I think it has only been one day since this miscarriage. Maybe two. And on the same day that Sheridan lost her baby, she also lost her approximately four-year-old son. I get that everyone grieves differently, but it seems just a tiny bit implausible to me that she would be out and about at a Little League game today. But there she is. Chris is getting in digs to Sheridan about the fact that Luis is "moving on with his life" and "not wasting any time." This is based on the fact that Luis is visible in the background having a minor-looking conversation with Fancy. Yeah, well, the two of you are at this big important tee-ball game too. It looks like you're handling things exactly the same way as Luis is, so shut up, Chris. FauxSheridan agrees that Marty is "barely cold" and that Luis is therefore emotionally defective in some way.
This ceremonial apron officially signifies: "Both of my children have died suddenly in the last three days, can't you tell?"
Chris says that Sheridan should be happy that Luis is moving on with Fancy, thus dropping his interest in wrecking their marriage. Sheridan says she's glad Luis is moving on in general, but she feels a little weird about Fancy being the one. Just then, Luis and Fancy walk up. Well, what were the odds of that, I ask you? They exchange extremely awkward pleasantries. By the way, I would like to note that Sheridan is wearing an apron. This is because she, Chris, and James (Chris's young son) are running a lemonade stand at the game - even more ridiculous than the idea that she would just be there to watch.
Ooh! Theresa has a new boyfriend. Okay, not yet, but that's where we're heading. When we last saw her in Rome, she had tearfully decided to give up her relentless stalking, er, pursuit of Ethan, after she realized that revealing that he's Little Ethan's real father would probably result in her losing custody. So she announced to both Ethan and Gwen that she's moving on - totally done with Ethan. About frigging time, when you consider that Ethan has all the personality of an armoire. Of course, the minute Theresa announced she was through, Ethan became much more interested in her. Ass.
Back in Harmony, Theresa "met cute" with this guy named Jared. It all started in the Blue Note when she spilled hot tea on him. Isn't that romantic, you guys? They now have a feisty, sparring-type relationship, in which he insists on calling her "Tess" and she pretends to hate it. She is now pretending to hate him some more at the tee-ball game, as Ethan looks on and pretends not to be insanely jealous.
This is what a high-powered business person looks like.

These Passions recaps are hilarious. I haven't watched the show in about 2 years (pretty much when Sheridan escaped the "pit" where she was tortured for about 7 months) but the recaps are probably better than the real show! Love them, keep em coming :)

You are pretty close on the recap of how Theresa had Jane and lost custody. She did chloroform the the surrogate and become implanted herself. However, then she had some bleeding and believed she lost the baby. She thought the only way she could get Little Ethan back from Gwen was to trade their baby for him so she put on a blonde wig and Gwen's "signature" perfume and drugged Ethan and slept with him. Turns out she never lost the baby but in a medical mystery she was ovulating even though she was preggo with Gwen and Ethan's baby and she got knocked up by him herself. Sooo turns out Theresa is carrying twins... THEN Theresa gets sick and they determine that she cannot carry twins to term for some reason and she'll either have to risk having both and losing both or even her own life or sacrifice one baby to save the other. First, Theresa thinks that she'll do no such thing becuase they're BOTH hers and she is against abortion. Then she realizes one could be Gwen's and one could be hers and so she decides she just wants to keep the one that is hers - seriously people, she's a saint, huh? SOOO Theresa decides to risk it, and if I'm not mistaken there was a point when she tried to determine which fetus belonged to which mother, but I'm fairly sure she then just took a risk hoping she got rid of Gwen's kid... Anyway, Gwen thought Theresa actually just went along with her request to abort one of Gwen's kids and then in the end the baby was born and Theresa yelled "It's mine!" Then, Gwen went crazy and tried to kill Theresa (something about some drugs she was on making her psychotic) and then Theresa opted to press charges, Gwen got off becuase of the crazy drugs defense, and then Gwen and Ethan decided to take custody of Jane. Because, you know, she was better off with the crazy woman who tried to kill her biological mom - but whatev! And there we have the saga of Jane...

...this is the first time I've heard this about Theresa and Kay. This is the first I'd heard of Theresa doing anything but wanting to be a designer or fashion magnate, but Kay is ALWAYS talking about her and Miguel "won the championship" and other memorials from their days in High School Softball/Baseball.....whatever. Like any of them weigh enough to hold a bat, much less swing it hard enough to get the ball anywhere.

Another excellent recap. Crap, I can't believe that I missed Ethan shirtless. Thanks for the Passions fix.
