Hospital--Abby asks, if Traci is sure about taking Colleen off life support. She isn't and will never know if.. Steve reminds her that she said it herself. That's not Colleen lying there. Traci knows that her baby is gone. It's just that there were so many things that she never got a chance to say. Dr. Snyder drops by. Traci tells that after a lot of soul-searching, she has decided that it's not fair to her daughter to keep her alive by artificial means. The Doc believes, that she is doing the right thing. Billy asks, so what happens now? The Doc imagines they will want to call relatives, friends, perhaps consult with clergy. The hospital does offer grief counselling if that's something that they would be interested in. "And please, take as long as you need to say good-bye." Traci sobs, how can she say good-bye to her only child? Traci is just ripping out my heart out here
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
CL- We see the closed sign as Jana states the only right thing to do, and that is return Terroni to the museum.Exactly Daniel retorts, that so she wants the Blue Dot(Amber) to have to marry that jerk Deacon? Jana replies, he knows, she doesn't. But keeping the painting would be illegal. Exactly Gloria sarcastically adds, like none of them have ever done anything illegal. LOL. But she should be the last person saying that! The Blue Dot says, technically, they aren't keeping it. They are handing it over to Deacon in exchange for her freedom. Gloria argues no, she is handing it over to Deacon in exchange for cold hard cash. Jana says, if it will make her feel any better, Kevin and her will give her their share of the reward. Kevin argues no, that money is for Ryder's defence. Jana thought he was through with him. Me too, ugh Kevin replies yeah, but made him a promise he would get him out of jail. He can't renege on that. Yes, he sure can. Kevin owes him nothing!! Jana sighs fine. She will give Gloria, her part!You are too nice Gloria asks, tell her why she should take her measly slice of $25,000 when . Deacon could sell the painting for $5 million, and she get $2 1/2 million all for her? Amber bluntly states, Deacon's playing her. That Terroni is worth a hell of a lot more than $5 million. Gloria knows that, but he can't sell it for what it's worth on the black market. Amber replies, maybe not, but he plans on making a lot more money than he's telling her. Deacon told her that once he sells that painting, he will be rich-rich, like superrich. Like living on the Riviera and flying around the world in private jets rich. Gloria calls him, a little weasel. Daniel reminds her, that he couldn't be trusted. Gloria retorts, like she can trust her? He told her that she would have a big chunk of money if she played dear little granny at the bank. Daniel sarcastically is sorry that he was trying to save the Blue Dot. Gloria points out, she isn't her Blue Dot. As a matter of fact, she could have his girlfriend arrested for trying to impersonate her in cheap sunglasses and that hat, and she wants it back. Amber bluntly says, she can't prove anything. Gloria argues really? Banks have surveillance cameras, not to mention lots of eyewitnesses. Kevin warns her, she wouldn't dare. Not if she ever wants to see her son again and any future grandchildren that they might have. Go Kevin!!Deacon doesn't care what any of their agendas are. His deal with Deacon was he give him that painting, and in exchange, he leaves Amber alone, and he stops threatening to put him back in prison, and that's exactly what's going to happen. With Deacon, I wouldn't bet on it! The Scoobies need to call the FBI! That's the only smart thing to do. But of course, they won't do that(ugh)!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hospital--Nick gets off the elevator and see JT comforting Vicki. He asks, what's wrong? Is it TGVN?? A distressed Victoria explains that the pump that the doctors put in, was only a temporary measure. JT updates that his father needs a heart transplant to survive. Vicki adds, without it, he won't last the week.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Nikki know it's overwhelming, but she want him to promise her something. That he won't give up. TGVN has no intention. Nikki replies good, Because they will find him a heart, if she has to go to Oz and speak to the great wizard himself. Bwhahahaha, great line. Victor says, at least it'll prove those people wrong who didn't think he had a heart.Don't bet on it. You got that! LOL
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
CL--Daniel announces that he is calling Sharpe. Gloria argues no! Jana is correct that he is playing right into his hands. Daniel states, if giving him the Terroni is going to stop all of this stupidity, then it's worth it. Amen! Can't argue with that Daniel is puzzled when he gets a call from Cane. He tells him that Lily asked him to call him, but she is fine. The room gets all quiet as a solemn Daniel gets the bad news. Amber asks, if Lily is. A upset Daniel announces that the doctors just declared Colleen brain-dead and taking her off life support. All look stunned, but Kevin looks really devastated. He wants to go to the hospital. Gloria rambles on that John loved his granddaughter so much. And she will always be grateful to her, because she stood up for him, when he was having all his problems. Oh, please! She showed her so-called gratitude by setting her up, just to get money from TGVN. Then by using her connection to Joh, she hide Patty at the cabin, Colleen got kidnapped due to her! Bitch Kevin blurts out that he almost killed her and she forgive him. Gloria wants the Fisher to tell Traci that she and her family are in her prayers.I'm glad that Kevin didn't answer to her insincere comment Daniel wants to go with them. Gloria will lock up for them. Daniel asks, is she sure? Amber admits that Colleen and her, weren't really close, but I know how much she meant to Kevin and him, so let's go. Afterwards, that rat Gloria calls that weasle Deacon for a little chat.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hospital--Billy wheels over the chair for Lily to sit down as Cane enters. Steve will give her some privacy. A loving Traci remarks that she was like a sister to her, and really appreciate Lily helping her realize that they have to love her enough to let her go. As Cane is about to leave, Lily says no, stay. Lily cries, then asks did she forget what the second "F" in "B.F.F." stood for? "Forever." That is how long they were going to be best friends. What is she going to do without her? Who is she going to tell her secrets, heartbreaks and fears to? It has always been her and she thought it would always would. But she isn't mad at her, because she knows that if Colleen could stay, she would. She wishes her peace and a safe journey. But she knows this is not the end for them. They will always be connected, and always be best friends forever. She knows she is going to see her again, and then they will tell each other everything, just like they always have. But until then, she is going to fight. Just like she told her to, because she is going to do enough living for both of them. She will.
Sniff! Lily's words to her BFF, just brought me to tears. CK is so wonderful in this scene
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`
AC-- A confident Gloria sits down with a glass of Champagne. Deacon asks if they are celebrating? Gloria is, because she found out he has been a very naughty boy. They both know that he can sell that Terroni for a lot more than he let on. Deacon asks, if she has it? Gloria knows, where it is. Deacon asks where? She states for a price, "Mr. Sharpe." He reminds her they have already agreed on a price, Mrs. Bardwell.
Gloria goes, "Mnh" a few times and he chuckled. That was before she found out, he was lying to her. Deacon asks, how much does she want? A blunt Gloria says, at least $25 million. They both laugh! He need her if he wants the painting. Deacon remarks, that may be true, but he has overhead. He has partners. She doesn’t care. Deacon states that $5 million is the best that he is going to do. But before she says anything, He wants her to just close her eyes, and wants her to think about all the things that she could do with $5 million. Gloria agrees to take the deal. He tells her, not so fast. They have got to get this painting out of the country and to his buyer, or neither one of them is going to wind up with squat. Gloria informs that Scoobies have it because they beat her to the bank. Deacon feels a migraine coming on. Does she know where they are right now? She reveals, GC memorial. A friend of theirs is very ill. Witch, she is dead! Notice how quickly, she betrayed her son and his friends, she is dead. And they are in mourning right now. That's a very cruel thing to do!! I just loathe this woman! Deacon asks, does she suppose that they happen to have the painting with them? She would assume him. He tells her, why doesn't he put that champagne on his tab and enjoy herself. Love the hat. LOL Jeffery sneaks up, asking if she is having a rendezvous with another man? "What are you up to, Sweet Cheeks?" LOL. But she just sent trouble for the Scoobies, when they are grief stricken. And not surprised she betrayed her son, worst mother ever!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hospital--Kevin asks, any change? A pained Billy informs that the family flew in a couple of specialists, and, the doctors all agree that Colleen's brain went without oxygen too long. Poor Kevin looks really upset
A sincere Amber is so sorry. Daniel asks if they can see her? Billy updates them that Traci and Steve took Abby to the chapel, and Lily's in there now.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lily tells Colleen, don't worry. She will take care of her mom, and hers will take care of Colleen Sniff!! Very sweet and moving Daniel enters and knows, they were so close. He remembers that when they were together, He was actually almost a little jealous. LOL It seemed like, they knew each other's thoughts. Lily agrees that they did! Daniel is so sorry. He wishes, he could hug her. Cane informs that she's taking a risk just being here. They should go. It was a poignant moment as Lily takes off her mask and kisses Colleen on the head. she weeps, "I love you." She sobs as Cane takes her out of the room. Amber notes, it's heartbreaking and leaves him alone with her. Daniel asks, what can he say? When he and Lily was married, he knew that the they were a package deal. "You were her little sidekick, and no stupid husband was going to come in between that." And then after they broke up, they hooked up for a hot minuteUgh, trying to forget that. That comment was so unneccesary He thinks, at some point, they even turned out to be some kind of weird step-cousins or something. But, she was never scared to call him out when he did something stupid, or to kick his butt when he really needed it." So thank you. He is going to miss her, kid." So am I
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dr. Swift says, even though the I.A.B.P., the balloon pump, is doing its job, his heart is functioning on lower level than they'd like. Vicki asks, is that something that will correct itself? The Doc says, he is afraid not. His condition will continue to deteriorate. An upset Nick asks, what is he doing to get him a new one? Doc has to contacted their transplant coordinator about putting him on the list. A surprised Nikki, asks what does he mean? He's not on it yet? Dr. Swift replies no, it's not automatic. There are certain criteria that he needs to meet, and he-- Nick rudely states, TGVN is dying. What more criteria does he need? Doc assures that he is doing everything that he can. Nick orders him, then do more. He sounds exactly like his controlling father at that momentThe Doc, will get back to them, as soon as he knows something. Nikki tells TGVN to hang on. She promise him, they won't let him down.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hospital--In the chapel, an upset Abby remarks, that her Grandpa, Dad and sister-- why does she keep losing the people she love? Good question, too bad it couldn't be her instead Billy doesn't know. But she is right, it's not fair. Abby is so scared. Ditto for Billy. Abby asks, what if TGVN dies too? Billy tells her don't worry about it Exactly.Abby is worried about her mom. Billy informs that Jack got her out of here. He's watching over her. She's okay. Abby's heart hurts so much. She doesn't know what to do. A caring Billy, tells her there's nothing she can do. He is sorry she has have to learn this, but it's a cold fact of life that if "you live long enough, people you love are going to die." Abby notes, maybe the people with nobody to begin with are better off. Billy asks if she really believe that,? Would she give up all the times that she spent with CeeCee just because she is hurting now? Traci and he wouldn't. Abby adds, neither would he. She was the best big sister in the world. Billy tells her, she was neck and neck for best niece. It was sweet, when he kissed her on the head
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In Colleen's room--An awkward Kevin, hopes it's all right that they're here. A gracious Traci says, it's all right. She knows that her daughter came to consider him a friend. A pained Kevin thanks her. He sighs, the horrible things that he did to her, that she was able to forgive him, get past that... He wants Traci to know that, her kindness changed his life, and she's a beautiful person inside and out. Sniff. Yes, she is! Traci asks, would they like some time with her alone? A polite Kevin says they would, if that's all right with them. Traci and Steve graciously head out.
An emotional Kevin goes, oh, man. He starts sobbing. He is so sorry, for what he tried to do to her. He wishes, that he had more time to make it up to her. He was so messed up back then. She had every reason to hate him. But she was all about seeing the kindness in people. And the good in them, even when they couldn't see it themselves. And, he is a better man for having known her. He owes her so much. Jana chimes in, they both do! Kevin sighs, " promise you, you'll never regret giving me a second chance."
Sniff. Kevin scenes with Colleen, absolutely heart wrenching! GR just blew his scenes away! He was so realistic raw in his emotions. I always loved it took a long time for Colleen to forgive Kevin. But when she did, it was a wonderful moment. Kevin needs to find out what his mother did to Colleen, then he can wash his hands forever of her
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In the lobby, Amber notes that that you expect people to die after they've lived long, full lives. But Colleen...Daniel adds, she'd just begun to live. Exactly! But the writers and TIIC don't seem to care about this legacy character. Grr. Amber remarks that could be any one of them in there. Who leaves the house in the morning and thinks to themselves, this is going to be the day she is going to get hit by a car,fall in a lake and going to drown? Well if the writers hadn't stupidity had Colleen in a canoe without a lifejacket, she wouldn't have Daniel hugs her. Deacon approaches them with a little smirkBastard!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~``
AC--Gloria informs him, that was Deacon Sharpe. He's an art dealer, and she is helping him with a little project. And stabbing her own son in the back. Nothing new, ugh Jeffery sarcastically says, because she is such an art expert. She boasts, that she is a woman of many talents. Jeffery teases her that she can barely color between the lines. Gloria chuckles sarcastically, says, it's a chance to make a little money. That's all she cares aboutJeffery says, why didn't she say so? Jeffery inquires, how much green are they talking? Gloria announces enough to turn the lights on and pay the rent for a few months. Jeffery remarks, it's better than a sharp stick in the eye, if she is telling him the truth. Gloria whines that she can't believe they call this swill champagne. What does he say they order a bottle of the good stuff and 2 of the biggest lobsters this side of Maine smothered in caviar? "Mr. Deacon Sharpe" said to put it on his tab as they both wickedly laugh!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hospital--In the Lobby, Deacon states that he thinks he has something that belongs to him. An outraged Kevin asks, so he came here to the hospital when their friend is dying? Deacon taunts the only reason eh is here is to let Daniel know that the clock is ticking. Amber spits out, that he makes her sick. Jana wonders how he knew where they were. A disgusted Kevin says, his mother. Daniel points out, they're not doing this not here, and not now. Deacon bluntly knows that he has painting, and suggest he gives it back to him. Otherwise, Ryder is going to retract his confession. "You, my friend, are headed back to jail, and as far as Amber's concerned, well, let your imagination do the work." The Blue Dot would rather slit her own throat. Daniel shouts loudly, that he is really starting to sound like a broken record. He comes in here. He knew he was a lowlife, but to come in here while their friend is dying in there, and he marches in, who does he think he is? An angry Dr. Snyder interrupts, telling him that these patients are extremely ill, and he is disturbing them, so either he walks out of here now on his own, or she is alling security. Sheesh, couldn't she just have warned him instead. Then throw him out the second time, if he is loud again Amber tells Amber that they will just go and come back later. a fed up Kevin adds, it's starting to stink in here anyway. Let's go. The bastard Deacon taunts him tick, tock. ....tick tock.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Vicki and Nikki fuss over TGVN making sure that he is warm enough in bed. JT is going to step outside and check in with the sitter. TGVN asks, will it take a long time to find a new heart? Nick tells him, to let them worry about that. He always found ways to make the impossible happen, and so will they. Vicki adds, he better believe it You got that!! Okay, couldn't resist LOL.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lane's house--Lily remarks that she thought she was going to die, and kept worrying about how Colleen would cope if something happened to her so soon after she lost Brad. She never, ever thought that she would be the one losing Colleen.
Cane notes, that's the crazy thing about life. It can just change like that, in the blink of an eye. Lily points out, that she is her best friend. What is she going to do without her? Cane knows that she could never replace her. But he wants her to know that he is here for her. He'll always be here for her. Lily confesses, that thinks she had this dream. Cane asks what does she mean, she thinks? Lily admits that it felt so real. She hugged her and felt how could feel how wet her clothes were. Colleen told her that she had something important to tell me, something that would change her life forever. Cane asks, what was it? Lily replies that she was going to beat the cancer and that one day, she would hold her own baby in her arms. Cane says, if that is the case, then that's what they're going to believeAbsolutely. Colleen was there for Lily to give her hope. But I am disappointed so far that Colleen hasn't visited any of her family.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`
Hospital--Vicki inquires about Reed? JT reports that Gabby said he's been crying his little eyes out. Nothing she does seems to help. Vicki sighs, it's no wonder. He hasn't seen either one of them in days. JT knows that he loves Gabby, but still.. Vicki thinks, he need to go be with him.
Vicki needs to go with him. There is nothing she can do for Victor right now. Her son needs both of them! JT agrees, then call him if anything changes? He left his keys in TGVN's room. I see they are covering up AH's pregnancy with that big purse LOL. Deacon wonders over to ask how her father is doing? Vicki ask, show did he know about? Deacon replies, it's all over the news. He hopes that he is doing well. Deacon remarks, the thought of losing a parent, in such a violent way, that's got to be excruciating. He is sorry. A puzzled Vicki agrees. Deacon asks, why is she looking at him like that? Vicki didn't expect someone like him to understand. Deacon replies, there's probably a lot about him that she doesn't know. JT stares at Vicki/Deacon as he enters the elevator. Hmm, are we moving into a triangle with them
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In the Chapel-- Nick hope he's listening. Nikki assure him that he is! Don't he worry about that. Is he upset with her? She means that he and his sister were going through so much, and didn't know how to reach her. She is so sorry and didn't know that they hadn't gotten her letters. She sent them to the ranch for all of them, and they seem to have vanished into thin air.Thanks to Adam Nick points out they found her when they needed her most. That's what's important. Nikki adds, thanks Paul! He told her everything-- how TGVN transformed Patty into MJ and brought her back to town. Nick admits, that he is still trying to come to terms with that. Nikki remarks, when he think of all the things that she did to Summer and Ashley... and now Colleen's not going to make it, and his father's fighting for his life, all because of something he put into motion against Jack. Exactly, she finally got it Nick is sure that Dad never meant for things to get so out of control.That's what he got when he decided to play with fire Nikki knows, he never does. Nick knows that he had no way of knowing that Patty was that unstable. Nikki states that the fact is, if he had just left her alone, none of this would have happened. But he didn't, so too late now Nick reveals the night before Dad was shot, Vick and him really let TGVN have it. Then to find out he's hanging by a thread like this, and he still angry with him. But she doesn't want him to die. Nikki knows, exactly how he feels. She has spent half my life vacillating between wanting to kill him with her bare hands and thinking if she could even go on without him. Nick can't still believe it's going to take a heart transplant for him to live. Nikki keeps thinking about that somebody’s going to have to die for TGVN to live. And somewhere out there, a family is going to lose someone they love as much as they love TGVN.We know it's Colleen and that fact makes me ill
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
AC--Jeffery dabs the butter off Gloria's face. She boasts that was delicious. Jeffery remarks after all they have been existing on, this is probably going to send their bodies into shock. Gloria doesn't care. Her taste buds are in heaven. Jeffery suggests, they head on home? Gloria whines and says fumble around in the dark for candles and matches? Jeffery points out that candlelight can be very sexy. Gloria knows, but the penthouse is freezing. Jeffery can think of a few ways to get her warm.Ugh Gloria suggests they get another bottle of bubbly, since Deacon is paying, and between the bubbly and him, and won't feel the cold. Jeffery notes, about this, Deacon guy. She wouldn't be holding out on him. Gloria tells "lover man", he knows her better than that. Jeffery points out, which is s why he will be watching her like a hawk. Smart man Gloria chuckles, that he says the most romantic things.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
CL--Amber notes, it's so weird. Colleen is gone, but she's not gone. Kevin knows her mind is. Her spirit, sense of humor, hopes and dreams-- gone.
I know, sniff. Damn YR for killing her Jana knows she wouldn't want to be kept alive like that. Ditto for Daniel. Kevin states if anything like that ever happens to him, he would want her to pull the plug.Get it into writing, Kevin Jana says stop! Nobody is thrilled to see that scum Deacon. Kevin sighs, him again. They are closed. Deacon says don't shoot. He comes in peace. Daniel retorts, that'll be the day. Deacon is really sorry about their friend.
Oh please Jana sarcastically says, that's why he came to the hospital and caused a scene.
Deacon thinks they all they have all gotten off on the wrong foot here. He is really not such a bad guy once they get to know him. Amber states prove it! Go back to whatever rock he crawled out from under and leave them all alone. Deacon can't do that, but what he can do is this. He'll give them some more time to come up with the painting, provided that it's the real one. Daniel chuckles, he is sure he'll have it checked out. Deacon will take their word for it. They are good like that. I wouldn't trust anything Deacon said
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lane's place--Cane has brought the scrapbook that she was working on for Colleen. Lily asks, why would he even bring her that right now? Cane replies, because he is going to help her finish it. A down Lily asks, what's the point. She's never even going to see it. Cane points out that she can look at all these pictures, and tell her all the stories behind them, and her happy memories with Colleen and how she'll have them forever. And they will call this book, "The adventures of Colleen and Lily." She knows what's going to happen one day? When she is holding those children that Colleen said she would hold, whether it's a boy or a girl, she is going to show them this book and they're going to know all about their Aunt Colleen and how special she was What a thoughtful idea coming from Cane and it may bring Lily comfort
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hospital--Traci remarks, it's been so great how many of Colleen's friends have stopped by. Steve knows, they aren't the only ones that loved her.
Abby tells him, don't talk about her like she's already dead. Sorry, but she isTraci says, he didn't mean it like that. Abby is sorry and he hugs her. Steve says, it's okay! He understands that everybody's nerves are raw. Abby keep hoping that she'll just wake up at the ranch and this will have been some terrible nightmare. I actually hoped for the same thing about this being nightmare Ditto for Billy. Dr. Snyder enters and Traci sobs, that she isn't ready yet.
Dr. Snyder says, that's not why she isn't here.
She has been informed that on her driver's license, Colleen designated herself as an organ donor. She doesn't know how she feels on the subject, but her daughter is young. Her organs are strong and healthy. It's just that her brain is no longer telling them to function. Traci sobs that she is sorry, she never even thought of anything like this. Dr. Snyder, stresses, it's completely up to her. They can’t carry out Colleen's wishes unless her next-of-kin approves.Poor Traci, yet another difficult decision to make. BTW, TS was very good in her scenes, pretending to be brain dead
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In Victor's room, Nick says, you know how he can tell TGVN's sick? Because he's not trying to run the show. LOL. Vicki chuckles, complaining that the bed is too soft. Nikki adds, or that the nurse didn't bring him his dinner on time. Vicki giggles. Nick says, as annoyed as they get with him at times, he really can't wait till he's back to his old, controlling self again. Vicki adds, bossing them around. That is classic Victor. But I hated what the writers did to Victor with this whole revenge/MJ, it did wreck the character Nick asks, Dr. Swift, please tell them, he has good news. The Doc announces that TGVN is officially on the national transplant list. Nikki finds that's wonderful. TGVN asks, how long before they find a heart for him? Dr. Swift explains, when an organ becomes available, the patients in the pool are compared to the donor for factors like, uh, blood, tissue type, size of the organ and urgency of the recipient. Those are all considered. Vicki stresses, it doesn't get more urgent than this. That's why the Doc is doing everything he can to have him moved up the list. But there are over 100,000 people waiting for a transplant. Nikki asks, what does that mean for Victor? Dr. Swift is sorry, there are just no guarantees. I'm glad that the doc was very realistic with them about the waiting list.. EB good in his scenes, even though I can't stand his Victor right now!
