Poor "Aisha!" Everybody Was Getting Slapped On "The Slap" Last Night, Darlings!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                           Last night was Aisha's turn to air her viewpoint, and it opened with a highly dramatic flashback of the night Sandi, played brilliantly by Marin Ireland, pulled up at Aisha's and Hector's place, in a car, years back, badly beaten and battered by pig husband, Harry.

                            But Aisha had her own battles to fight. How to help a young patient addicted to crystal meth, and is HIV positive.  How to avoid having an affair, thereby turning into the "old Aisha," who must have been, despite her brilliance, quite a wild one, in her day.  And how about Hector telling her about Connie, whereupon she lies and says she slept with the guy at the conference, when she did not. (Though she does, in the book!)

                             Everyone was getting it from all sides last night. You know who Hector and Aisha left their kids with????????  Anouk!!!!!!!!!!!!   How sound was that?????????????

                                Good for Aisha refusing to back down on Rosie.  Even the sleazy lawyer played by Michael Nouri, knows, with Harry's temper, they could lose the case.  I hope they do.

                                 Meanwhile, things aren't too Rosie, over at Rosie's. Gary delivers a monologue where he asks Rosie to just stop, because he is beginning to recognize they are not doing their best as parents to Hugo.  He takes a mentor like interest in Richie--he has connections at the New School, where there is a great BFA program in photography--and would help Richie get in there, or anywhere he wishes. He does not want to see a decent kid like Richie dragged into their mess.  Rosie wants his pictorial evidence.  Who is to say what goes?

                                  But next week, darlings, is "Rosie's" turn, and I am telling you, you do NOT want to miss THAT. It is the episode those of us aligned with Rosie have been waiting to see.

                                   Go, Rosie!  But poor Aisha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
