I am kind of out off by the portrayal of Belinda and kai as so gullible. It almost veered not “noble savage” territory, IMO, especially Belinda who is a grown ass woman and who would surely know not to get her hopes up by a clearly flakey stranger.

Yes, I asked that question a couple of pages ago.

So many instances where the show's creators clearly think their audience is too dumb to grasp things unless they pound you over the head with it.


I think he did have a little nuance. He had a few moments where he showed some actual caring about Rachel. He looked genuinely shaken up when he stabbed Armand. He and his mom have a real relationship!

Thank you! I thought I was the only one that noticed. I can’t stand Paula because of the abject hypocrisy she exhibits. She is in Hawaii getting a trip most people only dream of and seems completely put out. She is in a great college (I’m guessing because Olivia wouldn’t be seen dead in some low class school). She persuades Kai to commit a huge crime and then walks away with him in the lurch while tossing away any trace (necklace) that may give her angst to the devastation she left in her wake.

And I’m bummed Armond is dead, loved his character, but it needed to happen.


But Paula is the only one who seems to feel remorse and regret about her actions.


But did she feel remorse? She could have turned herself in or come to Kai’s aid. She slipped his necklace into the ocean, seemingly a “cutting of the cord.” She may have felt sorry he got into trouble, but not enough to do anything about it. If she came clean and told the family she put him up to it, they probably would have dropped charges.

BTW— does anyone think her puking indicated she was pregnant? In real life, it would be too soon to have morning sickness….but since it’s TV…


No, I interpreted it more as her having an anxiety attack.


Me too - also being seasick.

I agree. I loved his performance. When he first started showing cracks in his managerial facade—I can’t remember what episode it was—his micro gestures were brilliant.

I thought the same about her hair.

She does have beautiful eyes.

I'd put my money on none of them being anywhere close to as hot as she is.


She is pretty but her body is not so hot, especially below the waist. Looks like a 12 year old with tiny skinny legs and no waist at all.
