"My continuity nitpicks aside, I like the twist that Tomas and Tea are siblings. The man of mystery needs some connection to someone in Llanview. It also deepens the mystery of the connection between Tomas and Blair (Kassie DePaiva). Did Tomas really find a photo of Todd version 1.0 and Blair that he used to paint a picture of Blair in a Paris flea market, or did he have the photo because he was keeping tabs on his sister from afar and decided to investigate Todd? Is he working with the Roger Howarth Todd who recruited him because of his connection to Tea? If so, he's got a hell of a poker face. He truly seemed to have no idea what was going on in Tea's life. I appreciated that the show did not have an elaborate, far fetched explanation for how they lost touch. Nobody was presumed dead. Tomas left Julliard and moved to Europe and Tea never heard from him again. That could happen, especially since reclusive Tomas is the OLTL character least likely to have a MyFace page.
So far,Tomas has been a checklist of characteristics that make him my perfect imaginary boyfriend. He's smart enough to speak five languages. He's an artist. He plays the piano. He likes and respects women. He looks like Ted King. In short, he's OLTL's apology to its viewers for the Ford family. His connection to Tea keeps him from being too good to be true. He may be an artist and a lover, but he's a lousy brother."
