So Zander was short for Alexander. And of course they have involved Sonny's brother in that ridiculously stupid elephant/diamonds storyline. He can't not know that Eric is his brother's husband's uncle, yet he's threatened Serena that he'll hurt him. One good thing about it is that since he's interested in Nicole, maybe Nicole will occasionally appear in scenes with the boys.
I appreciate Victor's loyalty and love for Sonny, but I think his threats to Will arise out of his own guilt for getting Sonny almost killed.
Oh, writers. You show us Will deleting that story from his tablet, yet there it is. Great continuity.
Edit: So was just watching the show and apparently he's actually Victor's nephew and not great-nephew. Or something. Why does everyone in these families have the same names? Too bad, it would have been so great to see one of Sonny's brothers.

Thanks, mrfixit! Zoe really is what Marlena said. Her morality is apparently quite twisted. Will lied to Sonny's face. Again. Paul seduced you, Will? Really? Is that how you saw what happened between you two? I appreciate Victor's loyalty and love for Sonny, but I think his threats to Will arise out of his own guilt for getting Sonny almost killed. That's an interesting thought, and that might be part of it, but I think Victor has always had a special place in his heart for Sonny. So to that end, I thought Victor's comments to Will made sense to me. At any rate, personally I loved Victor dressing down Will.

I love it. I thought yesterday's scenes were really well done. The pace is just right and the important players of the show are all involved with this plot.
Will sure knows how to spin things and imagine things up, he should have been a novel writer instead of a magazine article writer.
And John sure has a way of drawing conclusions on Paul based on the one scene he saw with Paul and Will and Will's words, which is kind of ironic given that he used to be/is a ISA Agent/Private Investigator.
Love the interaction between Lucas and Kate, you can tell this is the typical mother and son talk and the dynamics is true to life. I don't know is it that Bryan didn't age very well or Lauren is good at maintaining her youth, cos they look like siblings together rather than mother and son.
My favorite scene was actually Marlena and Tori's exchange. Both actresses pretty captures the essence of what they are trying to portray.
Sonny and Paul, OMG! Please get on with it. LOL!
And it's very refreshing to see that John is supporting Will and is judgmental about Paul (his son), whereas Marlena knows that Will (his grandson) is not the innocent party here and concerns about Paul's truth about his father.

Thanks for posting the clip, Ron!
My GOSH Will has just about lost all rootability.
I was cheering Sonny on in that last bit. I feel like this show has always erred too much on the side of using Will's point of view over Sonny's for most of their storylines so I loved that Sonny just got to just put all his feelings out there for Will.
Too bad all Will did in response was snivel and whine and resolve yet again to fight for Sonny, even though Sonny just very clearly responded extremely negatively to how Will has been "fighting" for him so far.

Thanks, mrfixit! Will just doesn't get it. And all he did at the end was repeat the same thing he's been saying in a vain attempt to justify his actions: "I will not lose you, Sonny." What worries me a little bit is his comment earlier to Marlena that he would do whatever it takes. Will needs to earn Sonny's trust, but instead he's placing all his efforts everywhere except earning Sonny's trust back. Gah! I both liked and hated Sonny's impassioned comments to Will. He's trying to convey just how badly Will is hurting him, but it's such a shame that it seems to fall on deaf ears. Freddie did a good job with that scene.

He's trying to convey just how badly Will is hurting him, but it's such a shame that it seems to fall on deaf ears. Freddie did a good job with that scene. I agree with this; Sonny is basically telling Will exactly how to act to win him back, and Will doesn't realize it. I'm past wondering why the writers want us all to hate Will. I really don't understand the point of turning him into an unlikable villain whom we're supposed to believe is incapable of romancing his husband and only acts like he is some sort of possession to be fought over. But I'm coming to find Sonny a bit difficult to like at this point as well. His comments to Will were true and justified, but he has also showed a lack of self-knowledge and has himself lied by omission. He has been sending both Will and Paul mixed signals for a long time. He claims to want to save his marriage, and I believe he does want that, but it is perfectly obvious to the audience and to Paul that he is drawn to Paul. Sonny likes to play the hero; he helped Paul in this situation just the way he used to help Will, and he lied to Will in the process by not telling him what he was going to do. Whether Will deserved this is not the point; the point is that Sonny demands honesty and then does not live by that rule himself. Too bad they've neglected to give Sonny any friends whom he could speak to about all this so we could get some inkling of what 's going on in his head. I love that Tori is exasperated with Sonny, BTW. That eye roll when he followed them out of the club, LOL.

Thanks, mrfixit! Yeah, for whatever wrong Sonny has done (and he hasn't been a saint), I just can't past Will's behavior right now. If Will were somewhat sane it would be easier for me to see both sides of this. And I do get some of Will's fears about what Sonny feels for Paul. Sonny does still care about Paul, but there's a difference between having lingering feelings and leaving Will to get back together with Paul. Will seems to assume that Sonny will be as cavalier about his wedding vows as Will was. So his longstanding insecurities are blowing up big time. What he astonishingly doesn't understand is that, at the rate he's going, he will drive Sonny way. And nobody can get through to him. Will really is trying to be just like Sami.

I just watched the new vids... and Will... Well... I think it has been said here (and some that can't be said here!!). I love that fact that yet again Marlena has cut through all the crap and said something that went straight to the heart of the matter. Her scenes with Will have been enjoyable to watch. Sonny.. Well I agree with teachgirl on his behaviour being not exactly as clear as he has been saying. He does have the right to be mad (side note: great acting from Freddie!) and he had the right to say what he did (did anyone else think passionate/angry Sonny was more than a little hot!?!?). However, what he said didn't address the eye flirting with Paul and the look that said he CLEARLY wasn't immune to a (very) shirtless Paul (but then again... who is immune! BTW they should make it a rule -- no -- LAW that Paul is always shirtless).
Unfortunately, it all seems at a standstill now (and I am having the start of withdrawal symptoms) as Paul isn't interfering (or shirtless) by existing in the same town as Will's prized possession -- SORRY!!!! TYPO -- Sonny.
As another side note: I have been thinking recently that I really like Guy Wilson as Will now. I didn't at first (I know I am so typically human with my love of change!) and I think a part of that had something to do with the writers just continuing on with what was more complimentary to Chandler Massey and his acting style. Luckily, though, this has changed (finally) and the writers are playing to Guy's strengths and have given him this wonderful and juicy manipulative s/l which I am definitely enjoying. The great thing about characters like these are that they always stir things up around them and make very watchable tv. I'm really looking forward to how they will play this out. Will's comment was very ominous when he said he wouldn't lose his toy --- SORRY --- Typo again --- Sonny.....

Thanks, mrfixit! Kate is despicable. She didn't actually control the fallout anyway. She's an idiot if she thinks that this is better than what might have happened later. And thus I think she deserves all the hate Lucas throws her way. Nope, still don't like Kate. And now Sonny knows about Adrienne and Lucas. Damn, rough times in his family. I am curious what he will say the next time he sees Victor. Or Lucas. Or Will. Or Kate. As for Will ... he's lost it. I don't think Paul is a saint, but I don't know how Will can be so deluded about what happened. Marlena even told him to his face that his lies and manipulations were going to push Sonny away. At the rate Will is going, he's going to drive Sonny away, and he'll be too deluded to know that he's the one who destroyed his marriage.

Needless to say, Will was just unbelievable to me today. He doesn't hear or retain a thing anybody says to him unless it's something negative about Paul. It's this odd circular thing where most of Will's paranoia about Paul and Sonny wouldn't be an issue if Will wasn't making it one. He's quite literally pushing Sonny away from him, and directly toward the person he least wants Sonny near. Bringing Paul up in every single conversation they have is not going to help, whether there is real reason to worry about losing Sonny to Paul or not. They have more to fix than just Sonny's possible lingering feelings for his ex. Will needs to own his part of the work that needs to be done and quit trying to lie about, and orchestrate things he can't and shouldn't control.
Something I noticed today was that for the first time, Sonny mentioned an action with some real consequence. Will said he didn't want to lose Sonny, and Sonny didn't get to finish his sentence but his "Well if you keep this up..." was pretty telling I think. So far, despite how angry and disappointed he's been in Will and how confusing his feelings for Paul seem to be getting, Sonny has been in some strange sort of denial about the true state of his marriage. He's been telling people various things like that he's committed to his marriage, or that he'll talk things through soon, or handing Will that marriage counselor's business card. Telling people everything will be okay. Until today, I don't think he's once mentioned leaving, or any kind of separation, and certainly not divorce. He's also not been mentioning anything about Ari at all as if there's no threat of him losing his relationship with her. I think with Sonny saying that to Will today, the possibility of separation is becoming more real and I really hope they address Sonny's relationship with Ari now. She's not his real daughter but the relationship is there and it's been reinforced many times that he loves her very deeply and it'll be sad for both Ari and Sonny if they are separated.

Thanks, mrfixit!
Well, at least Will was saying the right things to Sonny. I'm not convinced yet that he really believes what he's saying, but it's a start.
John is trying. He has a long ways to go, and I don't blame Paul for being upset. I'm curious where they go with John & Paul.
