[QUOTE="Daniel Avery, post: 206679, member: 27"] They can deny it all they want, but this plot point just screams "the actors do not want to work together, so we have to come up with an excuse to keep them separated". The best "excuse" of course is to bring Drew back, no matter who is playing him, and have Sam reconcile with him...but they won't do that because they live in fear of the JaSam fan base. They'd rather concoct this threadbare plotline to say "Oh, they sooooo want to be together, but gosh darn it--the parole officers in Port Chuckles somehow got the authority to split up families." Meanwhile, when Steve Burton tries to touch Kelly Monaco, she gets that same look on her face that Queen Elizabeth gets when she has to take tea with the natives. My theory on the whole Sonny/Cyrus/Taggert plot (after watching Thursday's show) is that Taggert wants to take down Sonny more than he wants to take down Cyrus. His asking for Sonny's "help" to take down Cyrus is actually an effort to get Sonny to implicate himself. I don't think Cyrus really did try to kill Taggert, and the two are sort of in league with one another to take out Sonny (or at least destroy his "territory"). The kidnapping of Trina and Cameron was another misdirection; I doubt they were really in danger, or else the goon would have just killed Trina (after failing to kill her father) to send a "message" to Taggert. I noticed he very conveniently did not show up at Liz's house until well after the kids had departed for the dance. Taggert is probably also manipulating Jordan, since it looks to most people that Jordan tolerates Sonny's activities and would not join him in working to throw Sonny in jail. Taggert pretending to be focused on Cyrus is a classic case of "Look over here, don't watch what my other hand is doing" sleight of hand. I also find it hilarious that they're having that actress playing Jordan pretend she's old enough to have been working undercover with Taggert 25 years ago. Did she tuck her gun in her diaper?
