Additional Comments: Destiny is a minor, right? And she still lives with her parents, right? Did I miss the part where her parents said it's Ok for her to just up and leave the COUNTRY with a perfect stranger like David, to go God knows where and do God knows what? Do they know she's in England chasing down Matthew, who's now planning to go to Tahiti with Dani? I know we're just supposed to be caught up in this teen-age drama, but I just can't get past the fact that Destiny just hops on a plane with a stranger and leaves the country, and life just goes on for her family. Makes no sense. Instead of Shaun and Greg arguing over Rachel, wouldn't they actually be asking each other WHERE THE HELL IS DESTINY?

Destiny lied to her Dad and told him she was going on a class trip for a week or two. If I was her father I would have called the school to confirm the trip, you have to be careful nowadays, any parent would want more info on a trip like this.

And does Destiny even have an up-to-date passport?

I asked that a few days ago and was told that Destiny said she had a passport from a vacation the family took to Aruba, courtesy of Greg. So, yeah, she's got an up-to-date passport. I have to give the writers credit for at least thinking of two obstacles to Destiny flying to London - parents and the passport. But I agree with the poster below who said Bo and Nora should have immediately called Mr. and Mrs. Evans when they saw Destiny in Kevin's house. Wanda Wolek

But think about it--in OLTL time, it's only been about 2 hours.

I'm surprised that Bo and Nora didn't call her parents to let them know where she is. That is very irresponsible of them. She went to London with Bo's son to see Bo and Nora's son. Even if they already knew, they would appreciate knowing she arrived safely. Bo and Nora are 100% wrapped up in themselves now that they have Matthew locked up out of the way.

No kidding! The parents in this story are unfit to raise clover, let alone their foolhardy children. DoorMatt, instead of getting word to the judge who ruled in his favour, allows a girl he met just yesterday to take him on the run with her, and DestBunny flits off across the Atlantic on the wings of love, but at least they have the excuse of being children. Bo and Nora should know that DestBunny is AWOL because no living parents would entrust their child to David's care, but then, Mr. Evans didn't even ask for a hotel address or a chaperone's name, either! Even more ridiculous is the spoiler (inside)...

She told them she was going on a school trip (still lame), but they think she went to DC
