[QUOTE="Daniel Avery, post: 294339, member: 27"] This tendency to have repeated scenes with the same two or three actors over and over (and usually on the same set) is often a budgetary constraint, where the actors do a batch of non-sequential scenes in one shooting day. Those scenes are then dropped into several episodes that may span days or even weeks. The "story bubbles" were happening long before Covid, but now that they're trying to limit the number of people in the studio at any given time, the bubbles are becoming even more pronounced. If I were writing it, Sheila would be dropping by Eric's to help him solve that pesky ED problem in one afternoon of "playing nurse" . Eric would feel alternately repulsed and turned on by her seduction, but results are what matters! He's left not sure whether to head for the hills or 'ride the wave to the end'. He likes the idea of being "cured," of course, but why does [I]Sheila[/I] "light his candle" when Quinn can't? It would introduce the idea that Eric's impotency might be more to do with how Quinn doesn't turn him on any more, and for some reason Sheila does. [/QUOTE]
