What exactly does Rosanna owe him? Shouldn't he be the one apologizing to her? I mean, trying to kidnap him was a little extreme, but she did it out of love, right? Heh. I did like that Ro called Paul out on his crap today, though. It's refreshing to see that she hasn't completely lost her backbone or her ability to see through his lies. Still, she's obviously going to cave eventually, and that's annoying. Also annoying: Meg's constant wailing. Shut up already! Judging by the preview for tomorrow, I'm going to get even more irritated with this storyline as it progresses.

I know, I said I wouldn't watch. but I still caught a few scenes here and there lol. That line annoyed the CRAP out of me! Shut up Paul!!! And I assume you owe her NOTHING, right??? Ugh!!!

I wanted her to smack him on the head and say "of couse I do! Cabot!!!" Paul's so tolerable though. I mean it's nice to see RH acting normal and full of life for once. BTW did anyone catch this? Rosanna said something very similar to Paul when she told Paul everything about James/Cabot's adoption back. Remembet? She told him if he did this one thing for her she won't ask him another favor again? Missing SKatie and PRo.

Now Paul is coming to her for help and it is only fair that she help him even if they aren't in the best of terms (just like 5 years ago). I really liked yesterday's scenes towards the end with PRo, it was a little closer to old-PRo with Paul bringing up their past and "destiny." It was a very nice touch, and I was glad to see those emotions from him. Ro's reaction was realistic too, you could tell she enjoyed hearing him say that but wasn't going to let it get to her. I'm thinking TPTB are keeping the door open for PRo and I LOVE it!

Of course she knows what it's like Paul, you were THERE every time Cabot was ripped from her arms. And that "we're even" bullshit. I won't even go there. I wanted to do more than punch him in the face. I don't want Rosanna anywhere near this Paul. She DESERVES BETTER. As for this "Rosanna asked Paul for help before", no way am I buying. They were friends then. It would be a different story had Paul not married Rosanna to make Meg jealous, then cheat on her and have a baby with another woman. I think that pretty much makes them even. Just guessing...

Just guessing... Paul and Ro were not friends though. Paul had just barely saved Cabot from the fire and Rosanna was just barely starting to quit snaring at him by that point. This situation is practically identical. Paul was responsible for her losing Cabot the first time, and Ro was responsible for keeping his child's paternity from him. Both have done nasty things to one another. What Paul did to Ro by lying and cheating last time is inexcusable but Paul needs her, and she knows that. If Ro were in the same situation, I would expect Paul to be helping her. Just like he did before. Neither of them are innocent of any of the things that have occurred over the years, but I don't think they should make the other suffer because of it. Ro can help him, but as long as she isn't begging him, I'm okay.

They're ALREADY EVEN!!! So, Screw him for that!!!! At least when Ro begged him to help her with Cabot, HE SCREWED HER over, and she HADN'T DONE ANYTHING to him! Sorry, I'm not yelling at you, just putting emphasis here. I really wish Rosanna could just tell him to go to hell!!! [img]http://re3.mm-a10.yimg.com/image/273291845[/img]

Reply Quote More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts Report Post	We have to remember though that Rosanna isn't doing this to keep Eliza from Meg as much as she's trying to help Paul keep his daughter. As is Paul's reasoning as well. She doesn't know the whole story like we do.

I don't think he's faking that; I think he is genuinely happy she's okay and is glad to see her. But all of that bullshit about "we once loved each other in a way few people can understand" was a load of crap, and he said it because he knew it would affect her. It's totally obvious she still loves him, and just like last time, he doesn't reciprocate. Everything Paul said about their past love WAS true, but he's not really feeling it right now. He's saying what he needs to say in order to get the help he needs (as usual). My guess is that after he's gotten all he can out of Rosanna, he'll go right back to chasing Meg around, and Ro will once again be an afterthought. Paul is a manipulator. He respects Rosanna more than he respects just about anyone else, but he's still not above using her for his own gain. I really don't know how I feel about PRo as a couple right now. It's probably a non-issue, because I don't think they're going in that direction anyway. Meg has completely ruined everything, and considering nearly EVERY DAMN CHARACTER on this show is propping her up right now, I don't see that changing any time soon. I hope it does, but I'm not counting on it.
