Final Days Part 11

Obviously viewers are not buying Blair’s great love for Tomas Delgado, nor are they buying her rejection of Todd Manning (the love of her life), and they certainly are not buying that Tomas, the man who is responsible for turning Todd over to a brutal and corrupt rogue agency for eight tortuous years, is either a “good man” or a victim.  So, Ron has once again turned to the soap media to plead his case.

He recently told SOW:   Todd wants a unified family for Christmas, and he's on the verge of getting it this week. The trouble is, it's all based on a lie. Todd has arranged things so that Tomas confessed to murdering Victor, a fact that is distressing Tea and Blair.

"Poor Todd" says Ron Carlivati, “He does this every time. He's so close to getting everything he wants, but then he does something that threatens to ruin it all. The tormented Todd knows if this comes out, he'll lose everything, but that doesn't stop him from going full force ahead trying to get Blair back.  His relationship with Starr is stronger than ever. Todd is getting it all, only to possibly lose it all again"

This is one of Ron’s jokes.  Who hasn't been tortured by the would be comedian who throws out one pathetic joke after another while the room remains in dead silence except for the loud braying coming from the cornball who is the only one entertained by his pathetic jokes? 

Ron is applauded for his brilliant work by the same press that he runs to whenever he wants to convince the audience to buy into his inept storytelling.  Jokes, Ron has plenty of those, and the jokes are all on the audience.  Even as the show comes to a close, Ron plays one joke after another on the fans of the show's most iconic character, Todd Manning.

Well, the joke is on you Ron because we, the people are not buying it!  Roger Howarth and Kassie DePaiva won’t let us.  They understand their characters too well and they are so awesomely, awesome together in scenes.

They fit together perfectly!
