    It’s getting so that Eno can write these soaps himself.

    That’s not the shirtless doctor. That’s his evil twin, whom you thought had died in that tragic accident, but that turned out just to be a dream sequence.

    You’d think a doctor could do better.

    Days of Our Lives had a plump woman in it a couple years back (Chloe’s Mom I think). Not surprisingly, she didn’t last long. I think the others ate her.

    She may be “fat” by Soap Opera standards, meaning she has a 30-inch waist instead of a 20-inch waist.

    Or maybe she’s fat because she’s pregnant, and the shirtless doctor is her infertility specialist, and is actually the real father of the baby, and the doctor is the only one who knows because he secretly swapped his own sperm sample in and told the woman that it was her aged husband’s (that’s how the two met in the first place). But now that he’s passionately in love with the woman anyway he wants to tell her the truth, but she’s the wife of the head of OB/GYN so he can’t take the chance that she’ll tell him, i.e. she’ll “sing”, in which case it’s all over (for the doctor, anyway).

    What the young doctor doesn’t know is that the soon-to-be-cuckolded husband, his elderly supervisor and mentor, is actually his own father, who did the very same sample-switch with Dr. Shirtless’s mother 25 years ago, when he himself was a young doctor! So the woman isn’t carrying her husband’s child, she’s carrying his grandchild, which will throw off the results of the DNA analysis that the old doc had secretly run (fearing that his wife had been unfaithful, but not expecting that it was his own son who is his rival).

    Meanwhile, a stranger with a mustache, a leather coat, and a vaguely-European accent is headed to the hospital straight from the airport, carrying shocking news, but the weather is bad and he’s driving too fast (he also keeps trying to drive on the wrong side of the road). What is the news he’s carrying? Will he make it to the hospital, or drive off the cliff and be pinned in the wreckage for DAYS before anybody finds him? When they find him, will it be TOO LATE?

    the soap opera is only over when it gets canceled, otherwise you can miss 3 months and still know what is going on

    I just wish it paid better.

    Or at all. :-(

    Why not the cheating fat man & the shirtless Nurse ? Providing of course it’s not a male nurse. That could get weird really fast

    I am a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma, dipped in chocolate, and sprinkled with coconut.

    Nobody knows me…

    BWAH-HA-HA-HA-HAAAAH!!!
