Ah, now I see what Aisling meant about Erica's necklace (I guess I wasn't paying attention when it was shown in a preview). What a MONSTROSITY! Looks like something that evolved from a collision of Opal and Mary!

I REALLY like Erica's new hairdo, although I though it was pretty odd timing for her to get a perm on her way home from her thunderstorm meltdown.

Speaking of hairdos, looks like Bianca took time away from HER meltdown to get up in the middle of the night and get her hair cut and bodywaved.

SPOILER SPACE FOR WEDNESDAY'S SHOW

Simone tells Carlos that there really ARE people who value him for what he is on the INSIDE -- then she whips out a tape measure and tells him to trop his drawers.

Carlos drops Greenlee like a hot potato for blackmailing Mrs. Lacey. Simone is WELL aware of that fact, yet she seems to think he'll be perfectly fine about her locking Maggie in a toilet stall so she can be with him instead. I'd say she has the brain of a flea and the libido of a rabbit on Viagra, but that would be an insult to fleas and randy rabbits in aphrodisiac hazes. I had to raise my eyebrows when he told Simone that if he went up to her bedroom with her he'd be just like all the horrible people he hates -- how is a girl supposed to take THAT? "I'm sorry, but having sex with YOU would be the most disgusting and deplorable thing I could possibly imagine and I think I'm a better person than that." With all her whining, I don't blame him for not wanting to go upstairs with her.

As Todd said, that plunger would NOT have stopped that bathroom door from opening.

As disturbed as I've felt about Bianca being raped, Eden Riegel is doing such a powerful job with it that I can't help but be riveted by it. She is absolutely AMAZING! I did notice that during one of her flashbacks (probably on Tuesday's show), as she fought him off she sent him reeling across the room by a well-placed kick to the nads -- too bad that (most likely) didn't stop him.

For those keeping score, we now know that Greenlee was born in early 1977, which would make her 26.
