As the World Turns Daily Recap: Brad Rubs Vienna's Chest





Today's show was a mix of homemade vaper rub and unwilling bondage for our viewing pleasure....so let's get started

Brad/Katie/Henry/Vienna:

Katie showed up at the diner and talked to Henry about how all she used to want was her career but now all she wants is to be a mom. She asked where Vienna was and Henry said she was home because of a cold. Katie started to freak out and Henry tried to calm her down. Katie finally calmed down and made sure that Henry knew that he was a big part of this pregnancy and how this made the four of them family. Katie then suggested they make a house call with the soup of the day.

Vienna showed up at Brad's all stuffed up and coughing. The cameraman showed up to start filming but Brad sent him away because Vienna didn't want to be filmed when she was sick and not looking her best. When Brad asked if there was anything he could do to make her feel better she said, "yes, you can rub my chest." Vienna cooked up some pasty gross stuff and unzipped her shirt so Brad could rub some on her chest. Brad was uncomfortable and hesitant but finally gave in and started to put it on for her. And just as he was starting to relax about the whole thing Katie and Henry came in and got the wrong idea.

Brad tried to explain but Katie pitched a fit and stormed out with Brad following right after. Brad caught up to her at the station asked if Katie really thought that something was going on with him and Vienna. Katie admitted that she wants to be the one pregnant and not Vienna and got jealous.

Vienna made a crack about her overreaction and said she was happy Henry wasn't like that but Henry told her to think again. Vienna and Henry argued about the whole thing including how this baby was theirs and not biologically Brad's. Vienna started to walk away and slipped on some of the smelly goop on the ground and fell. (guess she shouldn't have been wearing the six inch spikes with her sweatsuit.) Vienna said she didn't think she was hurt but Henry insisted that they take her to the hospital to get checked. The cameraman showed back up but Henry said they didn't have time for that since Vienna needed to get checked out.

Katie and Brad returned to the apartment to find the cameraman who told them Henry took Vienna to the hospital. Brad and Katie went to the hospital and found out that everything was ok. Henry started to get territorial until Vienna stopped him then Henry stormed out and Brad followed. (seems like a trend starting for Bradski). Katie apologized for her jealous tantrum Vienna apologized for Henry's. Katie said she understood because Henry was probably feeling left out like her. Brad asked Henry what was going on and said he was sick of Henry yelling at him all the time. Henry almost blurted out that the baby was his but stopped himself. He finally calmed down and said that all was fine.

Back at home Brad and Katie talked about how Henry wants to take care of Vienna to feel included. Katie said she wanted this part to be over so she could hold the baby and know that it was really theirs.

Henry returned to Vienna's room and told her she was ok to leave. They agreed nothing had changed and left.

Lily/Luke/Damian/Zac/Zoe/Noah

Lily told Luke she wishes that Damian didn't get to him like this but Luke said he can't stand that Damian is always around. He said he's also sick of him getting to her and Noah to put them on his side. Lily asked if Luke really thought Damian could run him down in his car and Luke asked why she's defending him. Lily insisted that Damian loves him but he said there's no way Damian loves him the way he is. Luke told Lily that Noah isn't answering his phone and he's not sure they can work things out. Damian showed up and Luke ran off.
 
Luke ran into Zoe and she hit on him but an annoyed Luke was far from interested. She told him Zac was trying to find the person responsible for hacking the account to make up for hitting on Noah the other night. Luke told Zoe that he and Noah were fighting and that it wasn't like him to just ignore the problem and not talk about it. Luke found out that Noah didn't show up for work and didn't call in and Luke became even more worried because Noah is usually so responsible. Zoe kept trying to convince him that Noah was probably fine but he wasn't convinced. Luke finally got a call from Noah who said he wasn't answering his phone because he was on a plane. When Luke questioned where he was Noah said he was in Lisbon so he and Luke could have some time apart and that a couple of guys from his dorm wanted to go for a film festival. Noah told him that Luke needed to deal with his father and he was just getting in the way. Zoe told Luke that they would work things out but Luke said Damian ruined everything.

Damian told Lily that a jeweler in Malta confirmed the ring was made for the family and said that Luke has a ring just like it. Lily told him there was no way that Luke started this whole thing and said if that's what he's implying then to get out. Damian just said it's a posibility to consider and Lily continued to insist there was no way. Damian said that it could be a way to get back at him and make him leave town. Lily said that Luke was not like Damian and Damian replied that he may be more like him then she wants to admit. Damian tried to show Lily how alike he and Luke are by mentioning the election cheating and lying to the immigration officials. Lily continued to deny Luke's bad behaviors and asked Damian to trust her that there's no way Luke could have done this.

Luke burst in and told Damian he had ruined his life just like he wanted to. Luke accused Damian of threatening Noah and making him leave. Damian said he had nothing to do with Noah leaving and that everything he's done is to try and help him. Luke continued to blame Damian for Noah leaving.  Luke insisted that Damian leave but when he wouldn't Luke left. 

After Luke was gone Lily convinced Damian why him talking to Noah was the wrong thing to do. Damian said he was going to return to Malta to talk to the jeweler to find out about the rings. Then he said he would find Noah and make him see that returning would be the best thing to do. 

Luke met back up with Zoe at the diner and she asked if he was going to go after Noah. He said he didn't know but he didn't want to pressure him to come back. Zoe said he should wait it out. Lily called him and asked him to come home. Luke asked if Damian was still there and she said that Damian was headed back to Malta. 

Zoe and Zac met up and Zoe told him Luke believes that Damian made Noah run off to Lisbon. They were elated that their plan was going so well for what they had in store for Luke. Zac yelled over to Noah who was not in Lisbon after all but tied to a pipe. And Noah yelled at them to leave Luke alone.  

Lily asked Luke if he'd heard from Noah and he said no. She said Noah would come back but Luke wasn't so sure. She told him to stay strong for the two of them and that Noah loves him.

Noah asked what they were doing and why they were doing this. they gave ambiguous answers leading Noah to call them freaks. (well at least that's accurate). They told Noah that as long as Luke plays along no one will get hurt..then they left Noah worried and yelling at them wanting to know what's going on.

Coming up tomorrow....

Allison talking to her mom about how Casey wants her.

Carly talking to Craig about how she promised Parker she wouldn't ambush him anymore and Craig saying it's not an ambush it's strategy.

Craig tellling Jack that nothing makes a kid come around faster than saying yes, Jack replying, "do you think it will work?", and Craig responding, 'if you stay out of the way." 

Today's question for debate....

Who do you think should end up with the baby?

A.) Henry and Vienna since after all it is theirs
B.) Brad and Katie since the deal was they would get the baby and they don't know it's not Brad's
C.) someone else
D.) some variation of the four mixed to some odd coupling

I still adore Henry. Grade That's really all I have to say about the baby storyline.

.
Was I the only one wondering why Luke was talking to Zoe when it should have been Jade? I hate these stupid isolated storylines. Angry I also really wanted a scene of Jade meeting Zac & Zoe just to see her snark on them. I have a feeling I will never get that wish fulfilled. Anyhoo, so we still don't know why the twins want Luke. I am guessing they're Grimaldis, or maybe just one is a Grimaldi & the other one is a lover playing the twin. Am I the only one doubting after today that Zac is even gay? Something about his behavior at the end seemed much more sexual regarding Zoe & totally disinterested in Noah.

My favorite part of today's episode was Lily and Damian discussing Luke. I enjoyed it more than anything else today. PS & NB were very good. Luke's tirade at Damian was just so over the top to me, not because of the shrill levels at times but because it didn't make any sense. I swear I wanted Luke to just listen to what he was saying.

The continuity in this episode was terrible, not just because it has supposedly been a while that Noah's been missing(!) but because the way it was written seemed like Noah & Luke were having huge fights about Damian when they weren't. Luke was right when he said he & Noah were having mild disagreements about Damian but nothing huge. That made his tirade at Damian seem that much more OTT to me. I thought Luke should have picked up many red flags in the phone call from Noah. That was just odd.

The writing for this show is soooo bad, especially in the continuity department. I guess Damian could have found out about Luke cheating in the election but how did he know about the fake marriage between Noah and Ameera? That's not something that anyone involved would have shouted from the rooftops exactly. And even more puzzling, how come Damian didn't remember that Luke gave back the Grimaldi family ring when he cut Damian out of his life in the scene at the airport 2006? The very last scene we got of Damian back then showed him holding the ring for heaven's sake, and now we're supposed to believe that he has forgotten about that?
As for the whole baby drama I think Katie summed up my feelings about that story when she said: I can't wait for this part to be over.

Oh recaps for ATWT too... sweetness. I just happened to tape this eppie and it just goes to show why I stopped taping.

A.) Henry and Vienna since after all it is theirs

I hate soapopera secrets that drag on too long and this could be really annoying if they go the whole pregnancy whispering and getting flustered with Katie and Brad.
