I better go Google my parents and find out if they're murderers. I mean, if it can happen to Eden, it can happen to anyone right? I may not be a "whiz" on the computer like Eden apparently is, but it doesn't take a genius to do a simple Internet search. You don't even have to know how to set up a website.

Wait - the ashram has a website? Isn't that sort of antithetical for some kind of hippie commune where they don't even allow cell phones to be used? They have Internet access and their own website? I don't think Eden ever got the whole "ashram" thing no matter how long she lived there. She doesn't seem very curious by nature; I don't even know what she thought her father was in jail for if she only just now found out the charges. Did she think they put him behind bars for a speeding ticket?

Why does Noah keep pursuing this little snot anyway? Oh, I get it. He likes bitches, just like his daddy. Probably thinks that's the way women are supposed to behave. Must be confusing for the poor kid, what with his quadrangle of parents and stepparents changing jobs and marital arrangements every other day.

The Restless Style covers just keep getting more and more bizarre, don't they? I never thought they'd top the last one with the model and the human skulls but this latest one has some tramp on her back with her legs in the air like she's the wide receiver in a porn video. And when Phyllis held it up to show Nicholas she had her finger on a very precarious part of the photo. That magazine needs to be handled with care.

Of course, I doubt if it makes a difference what they put on the cover. I think people keep buying this rag just to see what awful things they are going to write about their current or former partners each month. It's like reading People magazine if it were written by Kathy Griffin. Although, to be fair, the truth hurts. If you put Sharon in front of a jury I think you easily make the case that she is, indeed, a vacuous hair chewer. It's not slander if it's true.

What kind of crappy electrical company does Genoa City have? Are they powered by hamsters running on a treadmill or something? One lousy little rain storm and the entire town goes black? Really? What happens when it snows? Blackout 'til spring thaw? And why do people keep getting on elevators when it rains if they should already know this? Was that elevator Lily and Cane were trapped in the same elevator where Phyllis had her baby? I hope they cleaned the carpet up since then.

Don't tell me Cane and Lily were actually comparing themselves to Spencer Tracy and Katherine Hepburn. Lily is no Katherine Hepburn. She's not even Judy Holliday. And if Cane is Spencer Tracy, then I'm Clark Gable. But perhaps they were trying to show a parallel in the real life relationship between Katherine Hepburn and Spencer Tracy, which lasted for decades but never went anywhere. Because that? Does sound familiar.

So Chloe did in fact set out to meet and hook up with Billy - but never intended to "fall for him," as she put it. But, if she fell for him, why did she ditch him in favor of his surly and humorless older brother who despises her? She really is crazy. And if Billy introduced himself to Chloe using his real name, why did he tell Amber his name was Liam? Maybe he thought she was a hooker. Honest mistake.
