Stefan can control Steve’s eyesight with an app?

[DOOM]

Seriously? They pay people to come up with these ideas?

[Chabby lover]

I agree that is the dumbest thing I have ever heard. I think Ron needs help who writes these kind of things so all Stefan has to do is go on his phone and turn off Steve's eyesight seriously that is the stupidest thing I have ever heard.

[Elle23276]

LMFAO. I love the bionic eye storyline. Very entertaining. Only legacy characters are entitled to.that level of technology though. Next, perhaps a bionic dialogue chip for Chad, merci.

[anitalyfe]

Wait WHAT??????

This is the kind of cartoon nonsense I hate. Ron love this crap and I loathe it. It's one of my many issues with his writing.

Ugh.

[Daysie]

........Agreed. Stupidest.......

[Emerald Greens]

Why do they want to make Stefan even worse?

[Chabby lover]

They want to make Stefan have so many enemies because I think someone is going to end up killing him and their will be so many suspects we will have a who killed Stefan storyline in 2019

What?? I must have missed that part. Poor Kayla will never be rid of Stefan.

[Emerald Greens]

That is very possible. I thought they might try to make him sympathetic at least with some of the viewers.

[dee2]

I missed that part. But, I'm finding it all a little bit of a farce, Stefan pining for 'Gabby', running around Salem, trying to keep tabs on Abby, and now
holding Kayla hostage. He isn't the big, bad Dimera he was brought on to be, at least not yet.

The title of this thread... (not criticizing the OP) This has to be the dumbest plot point/thing I read this month. This is far-fetched, even for RC. That said, I wouldn't be surprised if something like this is possible IRL. Not by a phone app, but by some kind of computer software.

[Emerald Greens]

I agree there are all kinds of medical and technology advances some of which will have a downside. I don’t find it far fetched but in this context and with the app I think it’s a ridiculous plot.

[Beca Drags]

Seriously, the power trip they're writing this character on is just ridiculous! Like that's even remotely possible that Stefan can blind Steve with the push of a button is just flat out stupid writing. Is RC trying to present a soap story here, or an episode of the X-Files??

[klmoon]

Would be kinda cool if Stefan had cameras in the basement that were showing what Steve sees! That would be very DiMera-like!

[Flowercity79]

That is so ridiculous. Kayla needs to just tell Steve the truth already. He is smart and will figure it out eventually.

Literally, he said that all he had to do was click a button in his app and Steve's eye "would self-destruct." I thought the Mission Impossible music was going to start playing. It was so silly.

I felt like they could've built just as much emotional stakes into the situation and not made it so ridiculous. Like you said, with the whole world of hacking and smart devices, there's a believable element in this that they could've played on. Like, they could make it so that Steve's eye depends on some kind of software maintenance that somehow Stefan could interfere with. But not make the eyeball self-destruct like a James Bond gadget by clicking a button in an iPhone app. That's just dumbing it down.

If Stefan can control Steve...then Vivian, Andre can control in how they can stay alive. Or that Gabi can easily control her fate with Chad, even Kate as well.

Seriously? They pay people to come up with these ideas?

Are you kidding??? These are the same people who bring dead people back to life! smh I did think it was more clever than some of their other ideas though.

[Emerald Greens]

Good point! Really all the returns from the dead is less plausible.

I think this particular plot could be more plausible with some fine tuning.
