Clip of the Day, March 22, 2011 (194)

Roger. More Roger. However, I'd like SOME NEW ROGER, please!



The search is on! A manhunt is ON! And Todd is getting his drink on with the guys in the woods! LOL! Of course, THE RADIO is on now....and a report about Todd is said right aloud for everyone. This is how he finds out that Rebecca turned him in. He's quite upset about it. Back in Llanview, the Keystone Cops are still trying to find him. Meanwhile, Marty shows up and involved herself as always and blames Rebecca for the recent events.

So many characters in one clip - it's like the story arc stretched to include so many characters on so many levels. Rebecca is the babysitter for the kids, Cord is the father, Clint and Vicki are involved, Bo is the police guy, Powell, and it goes on and on and on. The show was acutely adept at including so many people in the story arcs. Love this type of commitment by the show to a long-term story that is slowly and fully developed. Cannot wait for the Zorro scenes!

FAIL: The typical. Too much Powell, not enough Todd.

Sound off!!

    It's what Rebecca's NOT saying that is important. "I thought he was out of my life" and "it just hit me that he's alive"...note how she doesn't say whether it's a good or bad thing. Probably because she feels it's a mixture of both.

    Of course, Powell, either delusional or trying to delude himself, assumes she means it as being a bad thing...but we all know that's not the case. Deep down she's ecstatic he's alive and wanted to run off with him. She was constantly fighting those underlying feelings to do what she thought was "right." I certainly can empathize with that to some extent.
