[QUOTE="Daniel Avery, post: 245079, member: 27"] Before you-know-what reared its ugly head, they may have planned to write her pregnancy into the show. Perhaps that ill-advised affair with the priest (which, let's face it, came out of nowhere) was written into the show just to give her a "Who's the daddy?" spin on C3's pregnancy. The baby would ultimately have been Blake's (probably) but there would have been all the usual WTD stuff soaps always do. Adam would probably try to fake the paternity test results and she'd go visit family in Mexico (DA's maternity leave) to get away from them all. I hate WTD stories, in case you're wondering. The longer hiatus actually helped DA out, since she could stay in a secluded/safe place and not worry about catching you-know-what while working. It also made it nearly impossible to write the pregnancy into the show (at least right now) because continuity would be thrown out of whack (slender and athletic one minute, then [I]great with child [/I]the next day). Unless they wanted to do an homage to Corinne Tate's lightning-fast pregnancy and its "complications" on [I]Soap*, [/I]I don't think [I]Dynasty[/I] will go there this time around. Perhaps aspects of the storyline could be added in later on, when DA could just fake being pregnant. * Corinne seduced and married a priest. His mother was so upset she put a curse on them, then dropped dead. Within days Corinne discovered she was pregnant, but went from five weeks to six[I] months[/I] pregnant in two episodes, then gave birth one episode after that. Corinne's husband left her, assuming someone else had fathered the baby. The family was....[I]curious[/I] about how all this happened so fast, but soon realized that the baby was in fact possessed by the Devil, making chairs (and other characters) fly around the room, and laughing maniacally a la [I]The Exorcist[/I]. Corinne's mother had a (successful) showdown with the Devil to take back her grandson's soul. While I can see[I] Dynasty[/I] taking this sort of tack, I doubt they would have made such a movie rip-off quite as [B]funny![/B] [/QUOTE]
