Topic: MISC STUFF ABOUT TODAY'S EPISODE: HALLOWEEN

I'm curious as to who Angie and Jesse were dressed up as?

Is Tad wearing a tu' or did he really dye his hair down? Either way, I kinda like the look. Reminds me of Tad of yester-year.

Man, Erica, Ryan and Zach had me PISSED today at what they were doing to Adam. And what the hell kind of software did Zach have that made it use Stuart's voice and have him say those words? I bet after the truth comes out, they'll be hell-bent on getting Adam behind bars in exchange for Ken-DULL's freedom. And even though Scott and Annie aren't my favorites, they're right about one thing: it was an accident. And it never would've happened if most of them went gunning for Adam. Some of them for EMPTY INSECURE reasons like Krystal. And it also never would've happened if it wasn't for David's &^*%^$@ ass!!

ITA about Erica, Ryan & Zach v. Adam and I too wondered how they got a Stuart voice to play on the computer in the house.  Don't you have to have major INTERNAL speakers on your laptop to get things to be that loud?  And when did Zach become a computer geek (let alone a poet!)...? 

Meantime....where are the household staff?  Where's Lucretia?  I realize it's a mansion but that LOUD projection of Stuart's voice you think would have been heard!

HOW did all of them get out of their costumes SO FAST!  Those were complex costumes...I didn't notice if Adam still had on Frankenstein's clothes or he was back in Adam-clothes...if he was in Adam-clothes, where'd they get them?!?!  And WHO disrobed him!?!?

They're being CRUEL to Adam...I know they all want Kendall to be vindicated (I don't care if they fry her at this point!) - but there's a limit..y'know?  Someone suffers such a horrific loss (Kendall is not dead...Stuart is) and they push and push..and drugging him?!?!?  Horrible...really. 

I detest this whole outcome for Adam and Stuart.  It's awful.  Sad.  I hate it.

I like Tad with his hair color au naturel...the grey is hot!  He has such gorgeous hair!

I think Erica is being considerate to Adam considering what has recently transpired between them. She was very gentle in questioning him. Erica helped Adam a great deal previous to Stuart’s killing. But it was very easy for Adam to have her handcuffed in his house after Annie choked her and he believed Annie’s lie over Erica’s truth. Erica has told Adam often that she knows Kendall is innocent but he refuses to give her the time of day on this issue and has only been too happy to have Kendall convicted. After Adam found out that Emma killed Stuart (a lie) he called Erica and offered to help keep Kendall on the run. That is because Adam feels that Kendall should STILL take the fall as it was more important to protect little Emma who would surely not be convicted of murder. Adam’s offer made Erica realize that he knew that Kendall did NOT kill Stuart and she confronted him about it, but he was not willing to have Kendall cleared of the murder of his brother. Adam has been CRUEL to Erica throughout this darn affair, he has NOT taken her feelings, as the mother of Kendall into consideration. She told him how she felt with Kendall being on the run, but he would not tell her what he knew. Adam is NOT willing to help (other than his stupid offer to keep Kendall on the run) the friend who recently helped him, so Erica needs to help herself and do whatever it takes to clear her daughter of murder. I too hate Kendall and wish she would leave PV for good, but my liking is not the issue. Hence, I understand Erica’s need to help Kendall, as a mother, even if Kendall did push her way into LaKane’s life. Kendall can vacate the canvas a different way without being wanted in PV.

HateHateLobsterHate what those people did to Adam.  Hate.  But, playing devil's advocate, here, they all believed that Annie shot Stuart and they were trying to nudge Adam's memory of her shooting Stuart.  And somehow it was justified because they were also saving Emma from something or other and facilitating Kendall's freedom from prison.  But still.  It's horrid to see Adam being drugged and prodded and in pain!  HATE!

More idle observations:  I do not care one iota that Krystal feels empty, emotionally or otherwise. 

Tad had it wrong.  He said Kwak would land on her feet, like she always does.  Puh.  (Doubt that.  More like she'll be landing on her calloused backside or her scabby, scarred knees.)

What was with the little orange and silver pumpkins perched on top of the bar grass at ConFusion?  Odd.

Still, I really liked that the waitresses were costumed.  The one with the plumbing through her head was a howl!

There was one genuinely funny moment:  When OrangeLiza slapped David, Jake did a spit take in the background!  The show might be bearable if there were more spit takes!

awww I missed the spit take and I erased the episode! darn!...as for KWAK...I cannot name the body part on which she..and half the men of the town..the rich ones...land...I'd be banned from the board by the monitor! SORAS

That seemed so silly to me-in the light of all the family drama and pathos, they all had time to rent a costume, do make-up etc. for two minutes on air. Couldn't they have accomplished all that in street clothes? I didn't get it.
