I may be over-thinking, but Bo get electrocuted on the fence reminded me of when his then-wife Didi was killed by being pushed into an electric fence by faux Bo, Patrick London.

Good news!  The scene of Didi getting electrocuted is on youtube as well as her subsequent death in the hospital!

I remembered Didi's death, too.  I thought it was in poor taste that electrocution was used as the means to go back in time.  Didi sacrificed her life to save Bo.  Her death was so violent; it the first tragic death I saw on OLTL, prior to Megan's death.  In this story, electrocution was just a plot device.  I thought it was tacky.

  • Tackier or more violent than a blow to the skull, like with Clint back in 1988? I guess instead they could have taken LSD to forget their troubles, and then while on their acid trip, run into some magical elf with a time machine....

    It was what Jay said below...

    But you definitely weren't over-thinking... because the same moment in history went through my mind!

    If I remember correctly, it was the reverse.  Faux Bo (Patrick London) was holding Didi hostage and was going to kill Real Bo.  She shoved him against the electric fence but since he was holding her, she was shocked too.

    He died almost immediately and she later died at the hospital after saying her goodbyes to Bo.
