Ciara/Ben/Hope/Shawn

[Daysfansince90]

It's Cin not Sin, just so you know.

Ummmm....It was a play on words.

[dee2]

I got you.

[DOOM]

There is no doubt in my mind that Hope set Ben up. Her mission has been to lock Ben up and get him away from Ciara without any interest in obtaining the actual truth. She framed Andre for a crime she committed, so this wouldn’t be uncharted territory for her. I’m glad Shawn is onto Hops and I look forward to him confronting her about it and Ciara turning on her mother. I hope this is what ends Hope’s career as a police officer, and even better would be her serving time in prison for this. She has become a rotten human being.

I don't think the CIN fans would not love this....but Shawn is smart and sees what his mother is doing....I hope Rafe leaves her for Sami.

I wish Rafe would LEAVE for/with Sami, too - however - just free HOpe of him! She's been destroyed ever since they put him on her back when his other ladies didn't work out! . Problem is, Sami doesn't want him - she dumped him already.- he's definitely no great prize or he'd have found & stuck with true love long before he was forced on Hope!

[CanaryFan98]

Well Jordan is returning maybe Rafe can get with her again.

[Bluediamond]

Sami didn't dump Rafe. She picked Rafe over EJ. She and Rafe broke up over Gabi and she eventually went back to EJ. But she didn't dump Rafe for another man.

[AllBoHope]

I love Shawn. He is his father's son. Level-headed. He is not corrupt like his mother.

Hope was always feisty & headstrong (the REAL Hope) but she was NEVER "corrupt" either - not for over 3 decades - until the last couple of years (since paired with Rafe, actually)! Sad how the writing has totally ruined this character! Sadly, this is the reinvented Hope and it's NOT attractive on her - nothing they've done for her since Bo has been appealing IMO!

[CincyLady]

They have written Hope to be weak - and corrupt. After the Stefano shooting she should never have been in law enforcement and I have no doubt that she either planted evidence or manipulated it to make it appear Ben is guilty. And if I have to accept Will being alive and Gabi (a walk-in patient) changing a paternity test in record time - definitely, I accept Ben's redemption.

[AllBoHope]

Happy to hear that Ciara runs away from Ben, and listens to her mother for a change. Hopefully, she will continue to run as far away from him as possible. I'm not sure Hope's evidence is factual, but she is trying to protect her daughter from a serial killer. Who could blame her!

I DON'T blame Hope at all and KNOW I'd be doing whatever I could to protect my child in this situation - abusing power or what - I'd pull every string I had! At this point I'd not be at all comfortable with a SK - cute or not! They'd need to do a WHOLE lot more proving he's fully changed & not a danger to society anymore than they've done IMO!

Yes, I co-sign....Every word!

Personally, I don't care about Will or Gabi and don't fall for ALL that unbelievable stuff either although I do enjoy some of the romantic, true-love story fantasies (even then, I like them slowly built & well written), but an "automatic change" in a SK is off the charts for me w/o a good redemption story SHOWN onscreen & not just saying it happened offscreen OR where they prove he wasn't a SK after all which would be the best option IMO! I appreciate more substance than that. To each his own I guess!

I still don't believe for a second that Hope is going to be the one to set Ben up. Of course, it's going to look like Hope, since she's been his strongest opposition, but, usually the obvious is a red flag, that's not who it is.

Yea I doubt it is Hope; but even if it was I applaud her. What sane person would be OK with their child being with a serial killer. Hope has broken the law for far less; this is her child. I guess hope is not mesmerized by strangle bae. pfft

Just to add, Ben came to town a killer; he had killed someone in Florida and his father covered it for him. The Abby making him a killer is a joke; I mean damn everyone in Salem should become serial killers because they all get cheated on.

[Keelee]

Who did he kill in Florida? Where did you get that information?

[Santorini99]

What if it was Shawn who set Ben up. Hope is way too obvious.

[lovelydtc]

Nah, I think is that kid Wyatt who Ciara dumped. However, it will be an interesting twist if it was Shawn. Hopefully they don't make it Tripp.

It is not about Hope not being ok with Cin. The issue is her breaking the law and abusing her position/power. Just because she did it before for less doesn't make it right.

Wow, just stop.....You're making too much sense!!!!

[Daysfansince90]

dee2 Thanks. I mean.... I guess it went over some people's heads?

[dee2]

Looks like it!

[Keelee]

Why would anything you say go over people's heads? I'm sure Ron Carlivati was more than aware of the double entendre when he coined CIN at their inception. As were/are most CINNERS. Nothing cerebral there.
