Sooooo

 and since we have not heard a word about Paul’s father, I’m curious to see if that’s what happens.  I must say, I would be disappointed simply because of Marlena.  These writers just will not let couples be happy, in love, faithful, …. wait …. what am I saying?  This is a soap opera, after all.  Still, I will hate it if it turns out that Paul is John’s son, but if so they better provide a good backstory as to how John and Paul’s mother met, and why she is so afraid to come to Salem, and how does she even know John is there?  This, too, would have me smdh if all we get for the next umpteen months is the knowledge without the explanation.

Stefano does seem to have a penchant for Asian women.

Not being morbid here but, I wonder, considering Stefano’s age if the writers are keeping in mind that he could be gone at any time. Maybe that’s why we are not seeing him in many scenes or major storyline.
