From a certain perspective, I understand that Joy doesn’t feel safe around Stephanie. She pulled a gun out on Joy. Any parent would want to do anything they could to protect their children.

But she gots to understand that Stephanie was going through a crisis due to Owen Kent, who held her and Jermey Horton against their will and gaslit her for months. It can’t be easy for Stephanie. But at the same time, her going around with a gun isn’t the answer either. She could endanger someone. She’s not in the right mind set to hold a weapon. Even if she wants to protect herself. At least she got Steve, Kayla, Brady and others to protect her.

And Joy asking for too much. Forcing Stephanie to stay away from Kelsey for 18 years is a bit too much and very unreasonable. Especially when Alex might (hopefully not) be apart of Stephanie for the rest of their life.

I’m starting to question Joy motivation. I mean she only came to town after hearing that Alex wanted to be a father, via Jeremy. She spent months trying to hide her baby from Alex with Chloe and their parents help. If Jeremy didn’t inform her about what Stephanie told him, would she have came to town with Kelsey? Stephanie might be right. Joy might be just there for Alex and this battle between her and Alex could be a ploy to split Alex and Stephanie.

And if Joy really cares about Alex and Kelsey, she would try to come up with a real compromise for all three of them. As someone else suggested, a stipulation where Stephanie must attend therapy and maybe that Alex or some other adult must be present when around Stephanie and Kelsey. That could work. And besides, Stephanie has been good with kids. She has helped take care of her cousin Trey (I think) and Alex clearly trust Stephanie. So Joy should reconsider her choice.

Xander and Sarah reunion story just feels sudden.

We all know that it would happen eventually, but the timing is just a bit random. I would’ve preferred if this story got more build up.

The episode itself was overall good.

It looks like John Oliver had fun. He seems like a true soap opera fan and his appearance has helped boost the ratings slightly as Days now appears on the top of Peacock main screen. I wouldn’t mind if he returned on Days or GH.

I'm surprised I haven't seen anyone post about Cary Christopher (ex-Thomas) in yet another high-profile series, this time the DC drama Lanterns. This means that with Spider-Noir, he has already appeared in both DC and Marvel projects (although Sony Marvel, not the MCU Marvel). He plays the young version of a small town son in 2016 in a series that looks like it will jump back and forth.

Meanwhile these other ones might have been pointed out before as they aren't new shows, but I was watching Future Man and saw Raven Bowens (Chanel) in one episode as "Jennifer" while Timothy Horner, Leo's juror roommate, recurs in season 2.

And I also was watching The Last Ship and was like, why does that guy look so familiar? When I realized the one off in season 5 was played by Brandon Barash (ex?-Stefan).

But since Cary is the actual new one, here are also some photos of him at the premiere! Love his outfit!
