[QUOTE="Daniel Avery, post: 412912, member: 27"] Letting you go un-spoiled when you make remarks like this is slowly but surely driving me to Wyncliff. But on the bright side, Julia will share some goodies from her giant Bag of Sedatives and all will be well (at least as far as I can tell). I can say with some confidence that this story arc gives me the feeling that someone sat down with a pad of paper and actually wrote an outline. Too often, the show felt as if they were making it up as they went along. There is still going to be a lot of that, but so many of the events in this period (some you've seen, some you are yet to see) could only have been planned well in advance. I know we take it for granted that soaps work off a "Bible," or a general plot outline that plans events months into the future, but it was rare to see things occur on DS that unfolded over weeks, let alone months with lots of plot points set up long before.
