*pets
imaguestage* I agree with
Kimmy, you should post more.
Ruben's father (did I miss sth? I don't remember Ruben's father ever mentioned?)
No, you didn't miss anything, I was just thinking out loud - we never heard or saw anything about Ruben's father, so it made me wonder if he might come into the picture.
Subtext, subtext, subtext.

As for not bringing Lindsay up in a discussion about Rikki coming back, it's kinda hard because a lot of us firmly believe that Rikki was brought in to highlight D/L (either negatively or not).
If they wanted to 'highlight D/L', they could have actually clarified where in the heck D/L actually
was at some point during this whole thing. Danny's relationship with Rikki was more defined than his relationship with Lindsay. We know exactly what their motivations were, and we know exactly what did and didn't happen. If she was brought in to 'highlight D/L', they did a really shitty job of it, beyond possibly reiterating that Danny and Lindsay
like each other, which one would assume should be a given at this point after Lindsay has been propped against Danny for two years.
Just as like =/= love, as I know we've already addressed in the forum before (countless times), having feelings for someone does not imply obligation to said person. For example, if Lindsay showed up in S5 with a hot, studly boyfriend, it might
hurt Danny, but it's none of his business. Same deal with Rikki - without confirmation that they were actually dating, while Danny pulling away might have
hurt Lindsay because she cares about him, it doesn't mean that Danny's relationship with Rikki was any of Lindsay's business, theoretically speaking - nor does it automatically imply that Danny and Lindsay were in a serious relationship between the S3 finale and "Child's Play". You can care about someone and be hurt by them pushing you away without being in a relationship with them.
But I digress...
It's also hard because a lot of people who like Rikki seem to be tied up in their dislike for Lindsay.
I like Rikki, I dislike Lindsay - sometimes these two things work together. However, one shouldn't automatically assume that someone liking Rikki is all about Lindsay - honestly, when it comes down to it, as far as I'm concerned Lindsay can just have Danny and suck the life out of him if the alternative is her sucking the life out of anybody else on the cast. He's already been screwed over, and I'd rather not have anyone else dragged down as well.
But I digress - again.
Turbulence sounds really good, especially since Adam is apparantly gonna be out in the field again. I LOVE it when he gets out of the lab.
Yeah, I was kinda surprised that Adam was out there instead of Danny or Lindsay - but I guess we'll see why they chose to send him (aside from Adam being adorkable, of course
).
I hope they drag Louie out of that hole, I'd really like to finally know what happened. Are we supposed to think he's dead and Danny never showed any feelings??
talking about continuity, I wish Gerrard's plot will be finished in season 5 and TPTB don't plan to keep us waiting for answers as they did with Louie.
I'd definitely love to have Gerrard back again, and I think despite the time that has passed, it would be worthwhile to bring Louie back.
Better late than never!
I'd also love to see Adam-based plot, we got info on his past in 'Some Buried Bones', while not use it finally?
Yes yes yes, more Adam please. *rubs hands together greedily*
I'd also love to see Adam-based plot, we got info on his past in 'Some Buried Bones', while not use it finally?
There'll be at least one episode that will feature lots of Adam.
And he's with Hawkes in it, which means Hawkes has screen time too!
MY GOD, TPTB IS ACTUALLY LISTENING. :lol:
:lol: That sounds awesome, when is this Adam and Hawkes extravaganza taking place? Is it an episode that we already have spoilers for?
Kimmy means "Turbulence". I believe she may have exaggerated a bit.
We know that Adam is at the hangar (as mentioned in the spoiler report), and that Hawkes is there as well - so if most of the investigation is going to go on at the hangar, it's possible they'll both feature pretty prominently. Nothing concrete, of course, but the hints are promising. *crosses fingers*
A genuine 'Adam and Hawkes extravaganza' would give me tinglepants, and if there'd been evidence of such an extravaganza, I'd be the first one to do backflips about it.
I may be a little late coming to the party but after reading the last few pages, something has stuck with me. I don't really understand the whole "soap opera" claim. Maybe I am confused (so please clarify if I am) but I don't see how a love triangle or an unexpected pregnancy equals soap opera.
You made excellent points, and I totally agree with you. While some things can be used on soap operas (on a regular basis, usually), that doesn't mean they automatically turn a show into a soap opera merely by showing up.
Uhm, I hope I didn't accidentally raise hopes or something.
Fay was the one who told me about good Adam stuff coming up.
He'll definitely appear in a scene with Hawkes and Stella, and do quite a bit of investigative work Adam-style, heheh! Let's see, it's episode ... uh oh, I'm afraid you're gonna have to ask
Fay which one it is. :lol:
Silly
Kimmy. :lol: Perhaps my enthusiasm made it seem like more.
Say, something just occured to me. We've made speculations based on the presumption that Rikki will come to see Danny about something.
What if it's the other way around? What if it's Danny who goes looking for Rikki instead?
That would be very interesting - as you say, Rikki made the choice to leave, so it's possible that we see her again because
Danny reestablishes contact for some reason...
ETA because I'm slow and take forever to make a post:
Just to add a twist .............
Could it be that she comes back pregnant, with another man and happy.
This could be her coming back and saying move on Danny look at me i am happy .........
But wouldn't that be kind of redundant? She already left and effectively ended the storyline, so why would they bring her back just to end it
again?
