Reunions and reconnections

Today's episode tugged at my heart strings.  While I have not been a huge Brenda fan since her return, today we saw why she and Sonny were legends in their day.  Maybe for me it stirred up old feelings I had about the couple but I actually watched the Brenda and Sonny scenes today for the first time.  Brenda was almost old Brenda until she laughed and then I remembered you can never fully go back in time.  But even with the annoying laugh and it being some what obvious at times she was trying too hard to be Brenda again,  the scenes were touching for us old Brenda and Sonny fans.  Regardless I watched and even got a little nostalgic as they talked about their past. Those two still have some chemistry between the two of them which is touching.   There are only three woman in this whole world that get Sonny and his insanity Brenda, Carly (who is mad at him) and Diane (who is paid to get him thank goodness for her).   Maybe it was because so many of us have past loves that wonder what it would be like if we ever ran into them again.  We all wonder what we would say and if we would get that chance to be that candid with them as Brenda and Sonny were with each other today. 

While Brenda and Sonny were the focus of each segment lets not overlook some of the other reunions and reconnections today.  Jax and Carly - thank goodness they are finally moving in the right direction.  We have been waiting since spring to get these two back together.  I am pretty sure they won't go back to being their picture perfect family right away but at least they are both moving that directions.  I was happy to see their reunion and hope that they will one day be as strong as ever.  On another note, I do find it rather funny Carly becomes super motivated to get Jax back once she hears about Sonny going to see Brenda and then partially shoving Jax into Brenda's arms.  Nevertheless, what ever it takes I am just delighted to see they are heading down the right direction and I hope they stay on this course.

Another reconnection, subtle but was there was the reconnection between Robin and Patrick.  While both of them are not sure how to fix their marriage they are willing to do anything to keep their daughter safe from high-octane crazy Lisa.  Lisa is a little too good at being crazy.  It is kind of scary. For those scrubs fans rest assure you can even see today scrubs are going to be okay in time.   I am also pleased to see Mac willing and able to help.  Maybe he can ask Alexis over to help baby sit or something and we can finally get Mac a woman because ever since Felicia stomped his heart he has never gotten back out in the game since.   I say Mac needs a little adventure in romance these days instead of only being there for Robin and Maxie.  He needs to be happy too.

I saved the best for last.  Most importantly today was Jason and Sam.  Their air time was extremely brief today but very touching.  Jason's eyes actually sparkled when he told Spinelli how different Sam was then Brenda and how much Sam means to him.  Even after Spinelli left you could see on Jason's face he wanted to go upstairs and tell Sam again how much she meant to him.  But to his surprise she was sitting on the stairs with tears and sparkles in her own eyes listening to what he had said.  Jason has never talks about his feelings but his feelings are so strong for Sam even less-than-expressive Jason can put into words some of how he is feeling.  Sam is the prefect woman for him and this time he knows it.  He isn't about to mess this up this time and it is so clearly written in his eyes.  Every look he gives Sam my heart just melts watching them.  Even when it's a scene that isn't overly romantic they make their love shine through.  They have it all.  There are some cute moments too even when he takes care of her and subtly sneaks in a tickle of her leg as he puts her foot up or even just talking to her.  It's so sweet.

Call the comment line we need more JaSam airtime and less Nik/Brooklyn, DuDu time.
