Observations about today...

A number of things stood out for me today that were weird. Almost the entire interaction between Hope and Thomas was underscored by creepy music. It was unsettling. Thomas stopped the Thope kiss, looked down at Hope's rings, moved her away from him and stared at Hope. It was because of this that Hope removed her rings. Add to that the off putting sounds that accompanied the removal of her rings. Hope came across as manic/depressive today, almost like she was two different people. Self degrading and irrational and then boom all over Thomas. As much as Hope was talking, Thomas was dictating her actions. It was all so orchestrated. And, what was with the candles. Where did they come from? As well, there are differences in the room Brooke walks into on Thursday and Thomas' bedroom. This could simply be an editing inconsistency, but it's strange that it was so noticeable.

As an aside, poor AN stumbled when she kicked her shoes off. Good for her for keeping the scene going.

I didn't see any of that. I saw Thomas pump the brakes. I saw Hope remind herself that Liam asked for a divorce. I saw her take off ring and go after the man she's been wanting for months like she's never gone after a man before. I didn't find the music creepy either.

Hey. No worries. It's all relative. I'm a music person. It's a thing for me when the visual doesn't mesh with what I'm hearing. Given the posts I read before watching the episode, I was expecting intensity and excitement, instead I got the Shining vibes.
