Random Thoughts, Questions, & Ideas
By Patti G

Okay, so TPTB came up with a “great plan.” First they bring in young good-looking Hispanic Dr. Castillo. A “world-renowned” cardiologist trained by the
wonderful Dr. Hayward. He comes to PV just in time to save his mentor and also
to be there to save Kendall. He is also the man Jake thought his wife Carolyn
left him for.
Now enter Jake's ex-wife, Cara. We are first led to believe that she was
romantically involved with good Dr. Castillo. However, we eventually learn piece
by piece Cara’s history that she is his sister. Now we have a new family
branch in PV. Being Hispanic, they take the place of the former Santos family.
Fun now ensues as Jake and Amanda have to deal with his ex-wife.
TPTB also see that Cara and Tad make a good pairing. However, Tad would never
deliberately go after his brother’s ex-wife, and Cara is still, as we found out, in
love with Jake. So what to do to get these two crazy kids together? I know!
Let’s find out that Cara really left Jake, because she was threatened by a
Mexican drug cartel operating for some reason in the Sudan which blames her for
the boss’s brother dying. To protect Jake, Cara leaves him without telling him
why and goes underground.
Now, Amanda, channeling her inner “Janet,” calls Immigration and turns
Cara in, not knowing that if she is returned to Mexico, she will be killed. Oops,
Amanda’s bad.
Now, here is the good part. This now gives us a reason to bring Tad and Cara
together as Tad is going to be oh so noble and marry Cara so she does not get
deported. Are they serious? We now get to watch the fun begin as family and
friends both who know what the “marriage” is about and those who don’t deal and
react to this farce.
Have you ever watched a soap with someone who does not? When they ask
questions as they tend to do, and you start explaining people returning from the
dead, evil twins, multiple marriages, etc,, they look at you like you are insane.
That is the feeling I got when Mama Castillo was getting to know Tad, and he was
answering or not answering her questions. Her reaction to the lives of the
people in PV was priceless!
Well, that’s about all for now. Have a great week.
I would love to hear from any of my readers.
