Brady & Nicole

Nicole was married to Victor, Brady’s grandfather.  They all lived together at Victor’s for a while.  I remember Nicole flirting with Brady like crazy at the pool side.  (At that time, Kyle Lowder played Brady.) Seem to remember something about a shooting, but someone else will have to fill in the details.

Goody

Their "attraction" happened when Victor was presumed dead and Chloe’s mother, Nancy told Brady that Chloe had died in a car crash.  Chloe had been scarred and didn’t want Brady’s pity or him to see her like that so she made it seem like she died. Brady had stepped up in Titan and was living at the mansion with Nicole and was there to console him while trying to win him over for herself.  That was when Nicole found out Chloe wasn’t dead and posed as a surgical nurse infecting Chloe with the flesh eating virus to keep her out of Brady’s life forever. 

I’m just surprised that both Brady and Chloe have forgiven Nicole for what she did to them.

BRADY (KYLE LOWDER) and NICOLE were handcuffed together at one time in the mansion and Nicole tried to take advantage of the situation. Brady and Nicole never were a big item. This is a total retcon of the plot.  I wonder what the current Brady would do if he knew Nicole tried to put cocaine in his drink. They have simply made Brady the "go to guy’ for ladies in distress.

Brady or Chole could, should, or would forgive Nicole for what she’s done to them.  Nicole has done a lot of damaging things to people, Phillip, Victor, Sami, EJ and even little Sydney (the poor child would have a repressed memory of her as Mommy in her very formative year). 

I think sometimes that the writers believe that all of us have amnesia when it comes to story lines that they write or else we all have the IQ of a peeled orange.  We’ve all said time and again about the lack of contiuity in the show.  Don’t the writer’s have some kind of computer story line tracking device to say ‘oh that isn’t plausible in the story line because this or that happened in this story line?’  Or is it that they just believe that they can do anything they want at anytime?  

As much as I like Nicole’s character, I would really like to see some major punishment for all the stuff she’s done over the years but especially this kidnapping – and I won’t accept a postpartum defense because she lost her own child.  But then too, with that line of justice, I would need to be calling for Victor’s, Vivian’s, EJ’s, Sami’s, Kate’s and Stephano’s heads on a platter because they’ve all been just as bad or worse.    

I’m pretty sure Chloe found out it was Nicole.  And they becomng BFFs is probably something the writers just decided to toss in.  How else could Nicole come up with a buddy after all she’s done in the past.  By far not on a par to Sami but I think Nicole’s ‘sins’ were much more severe than Sami’s.  She’d have to get forgiveness from whomever they decided to pair her up with. 

I always liked the sisterhood between Jen, Hope, and…who was the other one, Kayla?  It’s so cold here, I think my brain has frozen.  I remember a scene where they were all sitting on the couch, eating ice cream out of the container and commisurating with each other.

Wasn’t the other one Kristen Blake?

where Nicole is concerned.  Perhaps I would go so far as to say a little too "masochistic" for my taste.  It’s like ‘pain, be damned,’ he can’t help himself.  That’s why I consider him weak.  If Nicole would have given Brady the slightest indication that she was interested in him, I might be a little more sympathetic toward his wasted feelings; but, she has always been up front with him where her love for E.J. was concerned.  She only wanted what Brady could do for her; not Brady himself, ever.  Now that she has ‘seen the light’ she seems to be looking back on her decisions and suddenly has come to the conclusion that…..what was the line that Dorothy said at the end of the Wizard of Oz…..something like, "if I ever decide to go looking for my heart’s desire again, I won’t have to look any further than my own back yard."  She had it all in Brady and she chose to use him to her advantage and then throw him out like yesterday’s newspaper, and he allowed her to do it, over and over and over again.  That’s why I find him weak.
