May 1st, 2015- The World's Worst Hangover

Disclaimer: Someone asked me if I read spoilers for the show, so I want to clear it up. I try to avoid them. It works 90% of the time so I usually do not know what's happening next or cast changes.


Today, we see how Laurel's drinking problem has affected everyone around her. From Bernice to Bob, Rhona to Doug, we're beginning to see how everyone is affected by it- most of all, Marlon. After being reminded by Doug that Laurel is his wife and he needs to treat her so, Marlon finally draws a line- one more slip up and he's giving up. It's fair considering he's finally learn about the time April had a sip of Laurel's mimosa and had to go to the ER.

In a quicky, Belle finds out that Lisa has been paying her off books for her work at Sharma & Sharma. I'm so glad Priya didn't spill the beans and let the family deal with it. She's smart. Don't let Dingles handle their mess themselves. It's nice to see Belle asking about Sean.


So are Ali and Ruby on their way out of Emmerdale? Is Ali serious in telling Dan he has to move too? Ali has always been a woman on the verge of a nervous breakdown. She simply does not handle any kind of stress well and given this is her son that's in jeopardy, her thinking thermometer is almost non-existent. Dragging your ex-husband into moving after asking his girlfriend for money is almost insane and shameful. Someone should tell her... perhaps her wife?

A potential exit for Ali, Ruby and Dan makes a lot of sense and this show needs a massive exodus of players since it has a tendency to only use new characters for a few months before back burning them. I just hope Kerry doesn't go since she's my spirit animal.

Other end of the week quick notes:
- I almost expected Darren, or worse- Emma, to show up and be Laurel's nurse. Can you imagine integrating Emma into this mess?
- A whole week without Carly and I didn't miss her one bit.
- Vanessa and Kirin hiding the pregnancy from Rakesh. Good luck.
