Zach's Idiotic Intimidation Tactics...

Murder, henchmen, threats, poisoning. Did I accidentally switch to General Hospital? No. Unfortunately, we're still on Pine Valley time. Okay, maybe it's not as bad as I perceive. You be the judge.

The majority of the week focused on the launch of Bella, Fusion's new fragrance. Everything was flowing fairly smoothly... until the murder that is. Taylor rescued Randi from an attack by her pimp Fletcher by snapping his neck and killing him. With the exception of the actress portraying Randi, all involved did a great job. I'm finally starting to see what the big deal over signing Beth Ehlers is. In case you're wondering, Taylor got out of the murder charge because Chief Of Police Jesse Hubbard conveniently labeled it self defense.

I'm not even going to waste time discussing the stupidity that is Adam and Pete trying to poison Bella.

Zach spends most of the week trying to figure out who's embezzling money from Cambias. Thankfully, the majority of his search was conducted off-screen. Friday's episode begins with hired henchmen attempting to track this person down. Viewers soon learn that Josh is the suspected culprit and Zach's metamorphosis into Sonny Corinthos begins. Is that a mob storyline I smell? Thorsten Kaye was definitely texting in his performances this week. Things on the ridiculous front ended just in time for Kendall to walk in to hear Zach threaten Josh's life.

I refuse to discuss Ryan and the rest of the scooby-gang. I don't want to speak too soon but it looks like AMC's fortunes might be changing. I think I see a light at the end of the tunnel.
