Frankie is so happy, "more than anyone has a right to be!" – and she certainly doesn’t! It’s really not hard to sympathize with Sable’s desperation. While her actions are, to put it mildly, extreme, her husband’s mistress, her own sister, is carrying on with him openly in their very house. I mean, Frankie is just a cunt. She says things like, "See how domesticated I am?" To make matters worse, nobody in Sable’s life seems to have a problem with what Jason and Frankie are doing, which only adds to Sable being driven mad. This situation – Sable peering out of windows and watching from the bushes as Jason and Frankie make out – is so rich and awesome, so fraught with soapiness. It leads to a fab confrontation between the two sisters involving a riding crop – Frankie, who was just expressing concern about the way she and Jason are acting now putting on a stubborn mask and defending herself.I really love the Channing story. Her uncle, Lucas, arrives in town to check on Channing's progress, who doesn’t seem to realize that "Randall" is, in fact, Fallon. So ridiculous and yet so much fun! I hope they weren’t just teasing us about Channing moving into the Colby mansion for a while. And how great that Miles has been rejected twice in a row – you can tell that doesn’t happen often.Fallon, to my surprise, tells Jeff that she was raped and her baby could be Miles’. Jeff's need to know whether he’s the father is understandable – but considering the wife he’s supposed to love just told him she could be endangering her baby with that tissue test thing, it is really quite insensitive that he would get angry when she said no. And, God, this Fallon would SO put her baby’s life at risk if a man told her to! To everyone’s surprise, Jeff respects Fallon's request not to tell Miles that he knows, although I’m sure that won’t last. And, just like that, it seems Miles and Jeff are back to hating each other again.Dominique Deveraux, i.e. Blake's personal financier, announces that she is selling Titania Records as well as her hotel to help Blake out of his financial bind. Wow, they are taking this to a whole new level. We all know she’s only there to occasionally write Blake a check but they really aren’t allowing her any dignity or purpose of her own at all. On two shows. And why would Dominique be doing all this at this point in time? Her daughter has just been burned to a crisp. It’s really sad. Garret seems to realize he has no purpose either and convinces Jason to send him to head the office in New York. Is that it for Mr. Boydston? I guess we’ll find out! They did give him a nice farewell scene with Jason.How wonderfully ironic when Sable changes her mind about prosecuting Jason and is told that only a plea of temporary insanity could help her – "Connie would love this!" Sable remarks, very much aware of the hilariousness of the situation. In the meantime, Barbara Fucking Stanwyck sends Jason a cable, firmly in off screen land."You framed me and my parents and my dog and my niece and my parrots," Jason accuses Zach. "There aren’t enough hours in the day to do all that framing," Zach hilariously responds. "Besides, I’m cutting down." I love that Zach gives Jason the ammunition he needs to throw Sable out of the house but, then, the Colby Curse for Quickly Curable Maladies strikes once more when Sable is on her way out: Sable passes out! Frankie is deliciously both worried and aware that Sable has just earned her ticket into staying there longer. Oh, I’m sure she’ll be fine within the next two minutes but how fun if she weren’t!  DDD</blockquote>
