Dang! Mikey got the boot!  Deb got really lucky with her surrogate sons.  I wonder if she will get a job?  Lindsay is so horrible.

I'm glad Justin and Brian are talking about the past.  They need to at least get it all out and then move on.  I'm so excited for them to get to Chicago.

I love Ted!  He handled Lindsay perfectly.

Welcome back David.  I guess he really was done with Michael's bullshit.  Good for him.

Hello Lindsay and Michael... have you seen your asses lately? Nope, probably because they were just KICKED to oblivion!! LMAO! While they are stuck in ruts of their own making, everyone else is or has moved on. David's insult to Michael (and that of his lover) was the icing on the cake from what Brandon and friends did. WOW!!!! To know that even David sees Michael for the cockblocking troll he is, now that was something else!! 

Glad that Justin and Brian are continuing to clear the air. Hannah is one smart cookie to have inherited both of their intelligence. I can understand Brian's need to know what he's missed in their lives and that he's always recognized the difference in comparison to Michael and Lindsay. It's also a sign of maturity that Brian is now seeing Mel in a completely different way because of his own situation with Hannah. It was quite a shock to know that Justin named Brian on the birth certificate... and such a smart move! With Lindsay lurking, there's no telling what she would have tried to become Brian's baby mama, this time of the little girl. Yeah, I'm STILL appalled that she suggested that she and Mel take Hannah to raise even though it happened quite a few chapters ago. WHAT A BITCH!!

Looking forward to MORE!

Even after the way Deb behaved Brian and Ted still looked out for her too bad Michael would walk pass if she was starving or needed a place to sleep.

Deb is starting to see that maybe (Heaven Forbid!)she was wrong in how she treated the others and that Michael isn't the angel she always told herself he was.

Of course I still wouldn't let her near Hannah or Gus even if she begged on her knees, Deb has burnt too many bridges and everyone needs space to heal.

And because I don't trust that once Deb got back in she wouldn't revert back to her old ways.

So what stupid scheme are Lindsay and Michael up to now?

I hope Deb will keep this determination towards her son! Otherwise, it's a lost cause.

Finally it looks like Deb might be seeing the light. 

I'm so excited to get our family off to Chicago.  Hoping for some together time too.

Deb will have to grovel big time if she wants her job back!

I'm glad that Jen likes Brian more now.  I'm definitely enjoying family time with our cute little family.

Maybe Debbie will come to her senses about Michael and Lindsay.

Sadly Lindsay is right about Deb. She’s the very definition of enabler. Michael will never accept responsibility because he has no reason to. That makes the third person to tell her that and yet I still doubt she'll finally get the message...SMH

Brian and Justin's talk in the park gave a little more clarity on how Justin saw things. Brian should be able to see the way forward now. I'm glad Brian is recognizing what Lindsay’s game was now and how/why she played him and Mel against each other. She won't find it so easy to do again!

Just read this on The Best of Days.

Sad that Deb was risking everything for Michael who wouldn't appreciate it anyways.  Nathan should have been named Trouble.

Way to go Ted! And "Bravo" to Jen to tell Deb what everybody thinks, but never dares to tell her!

My goodness! The nerve of that woman and her whelp!!!! Jen and Ted have loads of restraint themselves...SMH

Good for Ted for NOT giving into Michael's whining. Someone should have called the police for that abuse alone. Listening to him is brain-damaging! I actually gave him a standing ovation when he told Michael he wasn't giving him any money and that he already knew Mel's secret. Michael will probably crap himself now that he knows he was undesirable on all levels, especially in the role of parent. And now he has to go tell mommy that he used his money to buy toys for himself instead of supporting his 'would be' child. Oh boo-freaking-hoo Bitchboy! Grow Up!

So happy he's beginning to see himself the way Brian sees him- as an expert in his field, someone strong and more than capable. He was wasted at that job with its colorless walls, full of bullshit bosses and monotony! Go forth and CONQUER Ted!! 

As for Jen, another good telling-off was definitely needed. Where does Deb get off expecting Brian to get in the middle of the Muncher madness? Mel's uterus is HERS to do with what she will. I'm so glad that Jennifer drove the point home of why Mel made the right decision. Who wants an adult child for a parent? Oh but wait, Michael already has one! Michael certainly has his faults but with this Debbie as an example, it's no wonder he expects everyone to fix his problems. He learned that from his mama! 

Brian and Mel trying to puzzle out Lindsay's motives was very informative of how the bitch thinks. So basically she was chronicling what she deemed as Justin's failure? Yet, he's the one with a child, finished college, maintained a lucrative career and now has an art show coming up. What does Lindsay have except a failed marriage and a boulevard full of broken dreams simply because she was too lazy and entitled to try harder. Truly, there is no comparison between Justin and Lindsay. One is a mover and a shaker while the other is a chronic complainer.

Looking forward to the next chapter!!
