That’s correct ~ he did open the season stating he’s getting a divorced, and since such time ~ he’s nowhere to be seen. “Laid back guru” ~ 2funny! IA~ as family we should have each other’s back, but Nora could have respected Tommy request; not to tell the family. Yes, it is her grandchild, however; Tommy is grown, and needs to grow through his own issues. The reason I can so relate with how Tommy felt, that’s exactly how my Mom flows ~ (no secrets in our family, if my mom has anything to say about it) ~ she makes me ‘CRAZY.’ Then when my siblings and I ‘challenge’ her ~ her response: “we’re a family, why should we have secrets.” Arrrgh!

Nora needs to get a life that is outside of the lives of her children- I thought she was doing that when she opened that house for, I forget what- but that place is never seen anymore either- the man(he was the architect I think) is gone, the house is never mentioned anymore- ???? some loose ends here --?I agree as family we have each others backs-- but it almost seemed that Nora was tattling on Tommy-wanted the rest of the sibs to side with her and give him a hard time-- shame on nora---

Right, Nora needs to respect her kids as much as she wants to be respected. She has guilty feelings about having turned Tommy over to his dad, more or less, and pretty much let dad take over. Now, she is realizing her mistakes and is trying to convince Tommy not to do the same with his daughter. But...she needs to tone it down and honor the convidences and not go blabbing private issues of family members. Sarah's daughter was so 'grown up' in her attitude towards Sahara's relationship with the new man in her life. How cute was she when she said, "he can stay in the guest room, can't he?" Almost as if telling her mom that's about as far as she willing to accept all this for the time being. Very smart little girl!

Though, I enjoy the show, and find it well written ~ the pieces you mentioned, should be worked back into the s/l or tied up. I wish the Architect would return, Nora and him could pick up where they left off; I think they made a nice couple.

According to next week's previews, it looks like there's another guy taking an interest in Nora. I recognize the actor as being Brenda's husband on the Closer. He is terrific, but younger than Nora. I wonder what's going to be up with that.

Nora got a little butt hurt last night, but maybe it was good for her so that she'll learn to keep boundaries. She's such a caring mom, but sometime she oversteps. I also would like to see the architect come back, they were a cute couple. And lets talk about Kevin....thank GOD he finally simmered down about the surrogate. Geez Louise, he's completely paranoid and the insemination hasn't even been scheduled yet - although I DO agree a contract was warranted.

Soooo DOES Rebecca have a bun in the oven...hmmm. Should be interesting. Still LOVING the HOT French guy!!!! Yummy!

I think Kevin is supposed to be the 'male ' part in that relationship-but he is so freaking anal - I feel sorry for him-maybe it is the lawyer in him- he usually seems to cool off and rethink the situation and does come around eventually though- I agree that a contract was very necessary..

I like Frenchi too - a lot-- nice addition to the cast-

I think Kevin is spot-on about the contract. The girl and the guys need it. There can be so many things that screw up in arrangements like this.
Nora has no right telling Tommy's business to his siblings. That is up to him to do. He should have been honest with his mom, sure, but it is evident why he wasn't. I am glad Kitty was around to talk to him. She was calm and tried to guide him....not slam him upside the head with her own feelings.

And remember, staying away from his daughter is what that wife (what's her name) told him was what SHE wanted because he was a bad influence on the baby! Tommy felt pretty low about himself when he left and no doubt felt he was of no good for his child. NOW he knows he has to face what's her name and say he wants to be in the child's life.

His wife is a pain in the arse!! Yes what he did to her is wrong but thats his daughter too!! I hate people who use their kids like that!!

Can I get a witness! Cats, we know Julia is angry at Tommy; and not allowing him to see his daughter is her way of punishing him ~ nothing more ~ nothing less! I can understand her anger, however; she needs to leave their daughter out of the equation.

Bittersweet episode: Nora got her a man thats got it all goin’ on ~ luv them together. Looks like Sara’s French beau has had enough of her demanding attitude, and said: Au Revoir. I wonder if he’ll return or if she’ll travel to France asking him to come back? Nice to see Kevin and Scotty finally made a decision on who the surrogate will be. Justin needs to chill ~ he keeps apologizing, and every second word that comes out of his mouth makes Rebecca more nervous; she just need to bring him into the reality that he’s going to be a father. Totally, enjoying scenes btwn. Robert and Kitty. I can’t believe that ‘Psycho’ (Ryan) made a swimming pool out of the wine ~ that’s ‘jackedup!!!’ I was like ~ Dang ~ that ‘Chile’ needs help Asap. Wonder what Holly will do now? I can’t wait for them to figure out Ryan is the one who has been sabotaging them along. Luv ~ luv the writers on this show!
