Clip of the Day, May 7, 2011 (233 and 234)

Don't call me that, look, I'm not a hero, I'm nothing. Cue music. Sigh.

How can ANYONE NOT LOVE THIS MAN?

Roger does JUST WHAT HE HAS TO to create our love for Todd at an even deeper level....pity, and the need to help him. LOL. Always goes a long way.

Ah, Real Jessica. What a loss to OLTL. She was great. I love how she counsels Marty in her own way.

Just realized, Roger's going to be clean shaven soon after these scenes. Anyway he looks is ok with me.



I ADORE this confrontation between them. My god, the emotion and the tension...in so many ways, this was the greatest pairing for the drama aspect.

"No, why would he give that to me, like you said, it's important to him. Every kid needs a hero, even if it ain't real." OMG.

Marty: "I just want to say THANK YOU." If that was not the most well-executed line she's ever said...nothing is. All the hate behind it and the pain and the words are so juxtaposed to her feelings. Awesome. Susan rocks the screen opposite Roger. But then, who doesn't? I can think of one who WON'T. But that is a different time period, kids.

At the end of this clip, he does not know what to do with her gratitude and her pain. At one point, he turns away, as if it's too painful to watch, and it is, but we as viewers cannot look away.

I adore you, Roger, I wish you were reading all my declarations of love so you would come back faster.

See you in 6 days.

Sound off.

    "NO I DON'T THINK THIS IS FUNNY!" Then the moment of silence. Love that part...

    Also love Todd's sarcasm in the face of extreme depression. It's also a defense mechanism against Marty's self-righteousness, I think...or the self-righteousness he EXPECTS to hear from her. He'll need more of this sarcasm to deal with her in the coming months. LOL!
