I'm a day behind (I watch during my lunch hour), so I just watched Friday's episode. I'm enjoying it again. Chad did a great job pleading with Abby to stay and not go with Dario. While this Abby is no Kate Mansy, I remind myself that I said the same thing when they replaced Ashley Bensen. It took a while but I warmed up to the replacement. I think with time and an Abby Chad story line that's positive my feelings on her will improve.
It was also nice to see Roman again. I'm wondering if the mention of Johnie and Allie will signal that they will come with Sami this fall? If they do I hope that they will not age them to teenagers.
