Not sure if Chris would have played along if Olli was there well, I can not imagine this scene as it played out in the presence of Olli after all what Chrolli experienced last year (and no matter how much the authors make the whole cheating / women issue like forever forgotten) it would be pretty tasteless and disrespectful towards Olli to behave this way in front of him even if it's just a game but I'm not saying that Olli himself would see it this way - I'm sure the authors would surely show him as an enthusiastic supporter and he would perhaps even praise and encourage Christian as for the kiss scene yesterday - it was exaggerated for my taste from Christians side, I see nothing funny in the behavior of any of those people in the scene ( major eyeroll for like 13 y.o. Andi - please Andi grow up !!! ) it was rather embarrassing , than funny (like all such games) and even though I understand that it was all just for RebeccaTriMar sake and for Tristans jealousy and Christian (and Chrolli ?), plays in this just a minor support role it was annoying and unpleasant to watch (for me) anyway there is no way that I will like or tolerate such a scene just because that I understand that the authors need Christian/or Chrolli behave this way as a plot device for other stories , for other roles .of course ,it was not as frustrating and painful to watch Christian kissing Marlene as him kissing Theresa , but it was unpleasant and not funny anyway but fortunately we've seen so many similar scenes (and where it was about a lot more than just a silly game) that it will be no big problem to quickly forget those scenes

Tagro and me, the beginning of a great team Yes, girls, you're great and I appreciate you doing all of this for us. Thank you soooo much! As for yesterday's episode... that whole "spin the bottle" thing is very weird. Do people that age actually play that game? (Except for Andi, of course, who we all know just turned 13 and was totally waiting for his turn to kiss Christian; he even tried to seduce him with his painted fingernails... ;D) Once again a clumsy start for a s/l... I didn't really mind Christian and Marlene's kiss. It was obvious he was totaly caught by surprise and, knowing what was/wasn't going on with her and Rebecca, he decided to play with the situation and make a joke of it. Of course everybody talking about their kiss and the fact that Olli might or might not approve of it made me want them addressing the Chris/women issue in the future. But I won't hold my breath. In any case (and I never thought I would ever say something like this ) I liked Christian trying to help Rebecca. He was very tender with her but he didn't forget to remind her Marlene was her brother's girlfriend. As for the whole "lusting over someone who's in a relationship" situation, if it were real life that would be a definite NO! But in soaps we can accept a lot of things for the sake of love and passion. And one of the main ideas in this soap is the "forbidden love" concept. And that forbidden love always happens, because it's so overwhelming the characters can't resist it. The problem, here, is that sometimes it works (Chrolli are the best example; yes, I think Olli did interfere with Christian's relationship with Coco and I love him for it; despite the situation, neither of them was able to resist their growing attraction and love) and sometimes it doesn't. I still don't see anything in Rebecca/Marlene. And I'm guessing most of us don't either. If we did, I have a feeling some of us would have no problems in "forgetting" the fact that Marlene is taken.

Sadly in life lusting after someone's relationship does happen I seen it before my only quibble with some soaps and especially VL is that it doesn't deal with the negative fallout that happens in these situations its always dealt with very quickly i.e. the Dana/Hagen and Andi/Daniel/Helena storyline that would normally divide families and cause bad feelings for years but again everyone was quickly reconciled. I agree with you about Christian and Ollli what Christian felt for Olli was stronger than his feelings for Coco. Just as Olli couldn't help feeling there was something there even when he thought Christian and Coco were happy.

I agree with you about Christian and Ollli what Christian felt for Olli was stronger than his feelings for Coco. Just as Olli couldn't help feeling there was something there even when he thought Christian and Coco were happy. There are the two sides of the coin. On the one hand, there's the situation where people fall deeply in love, regardless of what is correct; people can't help their feelings even if they know they will hurt other people. On the other hand, there's what people's conscious dictates, what's right and what's wrong, which may lead to both internal and external conflict. When this happens, it's never an easy situation, specially in real life. And it would be interesting to see those feelings addressed, but I think VL is very superficial in that regard. No love is too small to prevent characters from hurting everyone around them; no love is too great to prevent characters from cheating, two months after being together. Well, with Chrolli it took a little bit longer. Lucky us.

We are getting off subject, but that is my opinion. All couples have their ups an downs and that was a big down when Marlene aborted the baby. They seem past that. Dancing and happy at their opening and Rebecca even said that they are happy. Coco was not happy with Christian, she was trying to get her dj career going and was complaining to Olli about Christian and that is why he kissed her. She was actually falling in love with Olli before Olli started falling for Christian at New Year's. The two situations are different.
If you don't see it that way, then that's fine with me, but I really don't want to debate it.

Bel, we're always in sync! Especially when we're fan-girling ;D ;D I just love the way Andi always looks at Chris and how he tries to help and support him. And when Chris shows his appreciation for him (like when he volunteered to help him and Olli sell the building) he melts all over the place. ;D And the best thing of all: he's the biggest Chrolli fan on the show ( ex-aequo with Charlie, of course).

Thanks so much for the caps. Too cute Andi/Chris giving Charlie a kiss. Christian is spending more time in the nuNoLimits then he had been spending in the old one as of late. I guess he doesn't want to be at home alone. He probably misses Olli.
I still like Charlie and Frank. I'm probably the only one, but when Frank was talking and he turned into Ricardo. I didn't like it. Ricardo looked like an idiot. I wonder if this will be the last time we see Frank.

Besides, he's very charming and self-assured (and seems to really like her). Dumping him for Riccardo is not an improvement. Christian and Andi were really cute with Charlie. And Andi is loving his blue fingernails. ;D

Glad I'm not the only one. I don't see the chemistry with Ricardo/Charlie either. Charlie seems so natural and at ease with Frank. The smile when her knight showed up to fix her tire. I didn't even like Ricardo with Julia. I didn't like the sis/brother thing, but I didn't really care if Ricardo got hurt. I said it before, that it would be different if they wanted to turn Charlie into a cougar and she just was having some fun with Ricardo, but it sems like they are going to have her fall for him and that just makes no sense. However, none of the pairing as of late have thrilled me. So why should this be any different.

Ah, poor Frank did not drop it like it's hot on Charlie but apparently our little Latin Doctor did and now he's on Charlie's brain but to tell you the truth Frank is so much better for Charlie and why would she waste her time on a man who apparently just wants to hit any and everything in site.
This new NL is going to get use to, I'm still missing the old one but I see Josie got a job there.

Yes, Marlene offered her a job after Olli was going to take the manager job and they saw how good a worker she is.
The nuNL is not intimate enough. There is all that room and I'm not sure what they are going to do with it.
I guess the good doctor as all the same stuff that all the other latin lovers had going for them. When Emillo came to town, every women from Kim to Elizabeth was taken by him and we know how people jumped through hoops over Raphael, except Christian of course. If Timo was alread attached to Leonie, I'm sure he would have had his choice of women also.
Right now Ricardo seems to be the womanizer, but so was Daniel when he got in town. As soon as he realizes what a prize Charlie is, he'll probably change his tune, but the problem is I don't see any chemistry between the two. While Charlie/Frank had plenty, but I guess the problem is that they were too much alike. I'm mostly not looking forward to another person boohooing about the person they want, not wanting them.

Another one for Frank and Charlie that is why I was disappointed by the fact that VL skipped completely over them getting together I would have loved the relationship to have developed more and deal with some of Charlie's demons from her previous relationships. I don't mind Charlie and Ricardo it just depends on where they take it but I hope this is not the last we see of Frank on the show.

You're right. Especially the car racing. In the video about their driving, Olli already drives like a race car driver. He would have won that race. But honestly, even if Olli was there, they would have had much to say and would have been in the background like Andi/Christian were. Even if that were true, at least they would be together, like they use to. Now when they have them in support it seperate. They hardly ever have scenes together.
