The Fairy Tale gambit succeeded. Tommy and Jacob stood at the Disney balcony caring for each other and won the crowd and the Internet. Will was proud of how they acted under pressure. The reactions were outstanding, very positive and narrative reframing. The campaign has renewed positive energy. Will wants to be interviewed by a helpful TV personality to continue the momentum. His key staff will be keeping and eye on Trump's negative offensive after the Disney offense We learned Peter and Ned are traveling hidden away to Newfoundland and safety. Hopefuly, they will make it.

I am hoping to see Marina losing her fight against Liam and really suffering.

The Bulwark and Herald met with Ain and Fenn. They do not know what to make of Yarima. They have information that the enemy is massing at the boarder preparing for an attack, The leaders think they will attack before Fenn can be better trained and more powerful and can be killed. The Bulwark and the Herald want Fenn to concentrate on his training. He will do so. But, Fenn is greatly worried that the citizens fear him and by him being near Ain,then Ain will lose respect. Ain tells Fenn. "I'm actually very disappointed in our people. You would think saving my life, twice, would be enough to prove you're a good guy. But no." Ain will continue to support Fenn and build up his self-concept and become closer to him.

There is so much in this chapter. The episodes are fascinating but there are gaps and loose ends Marina ties her last legal action meant to enforce her contract, control his life and scare others away from.His lawyers are on it. She wants an NDA so his sex life is not public. He wants to testify and I am sure will be honest and make Marina's efforts futile Hudson has kept his behind the scenes role at the same restaurant. He stays late and offers to help Gabriel, the manager out. He has payroll and bills and unresolved accounting issues. Hudson looks over Gabriel's items, organizes them and gives him a script to follow to get what he wants from his suppliers. Gabriel is impressed and has noticed that Hudson is cool under pressure and can calm upset staff. He tells Hudson he wants him to help manage the restaurant which surprises Hudson and he accepts and names his new salary One thing you can say about Liam and Hudson is that they fully and robustly enjoy sex and creatively and passionately please each other. The have wonderful routines and activities, I am very glad to learn that their sex life is ongoing and rewarding. All the pressures that they faced have not split them apart and burn out their romantic feelings and actions. Comments during the interview hint the Liam has not lost Hudson He gave up his old life..."The interviewer's expression flickered, as if recognizing the hidden cruelty beneath the headline. "So when you say you lost everything," the interviewer said, "you mean you lost…?" "Who I used to be," Liam replied. "Whatever that was." More to follow....

Axl does not have a bf now. He seems open to other options. Axl goes the extra mile and strips for a customer and sells him all his clothes. What else might he sell--pics, sexy vids etc since he has learned he can make money selling things. Can you see Axl opening an OnlyFans account or something like it and find a bf who has bought things from him on line and at some point sees him delivering pizza and decides he wants to know this hot guy much better.

I am convinced Oliver will not try to save Tarquin. The evidence will sink Tarquin. I am expecting Tarquin's perfidy and greed will turn Oliver away from Tarquin. His surprise actions with Strickland on the solar farm project and diverting 120 million away and filing for bankruptcies will anger Oliver Tarquin's plans will be too difficult to keep hidden. Things must be intensifying and decisions need to be made due to the pressures of the Gala and Tarquin's impending resignation as Mayor. A bank officer could ask Oliver about parts of the plan and shock him. Jenny-Lynn might see suspicious records or unusual legal actions. Orel could be asked by Tarquin to sign another legal document .Lydia and Kenny could open up a new investigation.

Ronan and Tomas are in training at the manor. Some tasks are simple and some require their minds, The had to clean a very dirty chimney. It was noticed that they worked silently, did not complain and accomplished their tasks. They were given sashes to mark they were squires. Later, the stood behind Kaylen and helped serve the meal. It was noted that that did a good job. They are always being watched and judged. Tomorrow, they have more tasks In the privacy of their room, the began to express their strong feelings for each other and kissed. They must be careful to keep their feelings private and behind closed doors. Young love can be hard to control. There has been no mention of the concerns of the bishop or a new mission for Kaylen.

I am worried about military and intel deep state complications. Might the Merrickville army or higher command seek to investigate the killings in the manor and conduct a high pressure search for the killers that will shut down the area for quite a while? The call to Will alerting him Ned was safe and was with West was in the open. The US NSA and eventually the CIA is going to know Ned is near Merrickville and West was part of the team that rescued him and killed the US military personnel in the manor. Will the CIA tell the Army or decide to handle the matter on its own? At some point, the CIA might send a team to capture/interrogate/ kill West.

Should be worried about Strickland, the PI Tarquin used for his investigations and dirty work? Could he be watching what is going on the protect Tarquin's interests? Might he find out about the plan to reveal Tarquin's underhanded actions and try to sabotage the plan. If a later threat to Tarquin's life appears real, will he go after those who intend to disappear Tarquin? I might be too paranoid and assume Tarquin and Strickland are super competent.

What a fascinating group of people living large and energetically. Each one adds a distinctive contribution. There is lots of love being shown and shared, Orel finally fit in the mix and will be protected by them all. Kenny and Orel are kindred souls. They intend to reveal secrets about the illegal Heritage project at the Gala that will punish Tarquin unexpectedly. But, they only know part of the scandal. They need to dig deeper and find the plan for the Solar Farm and 120 million transfer and reveal that Tarquin will be running for Parliament in a way that will hurt his chances, Clovis rightly knows Tarquin is a predator and could have hurt Finn and Orel. He will let the two soon to be married boys carry out their plans. But, if Tarquin seeks to hurt them--and he might seek vengeance when his house of cards falls apart--then Clovis reserves the right to call Andrew for a discrete clean up detail helping Tarquin to disappear. Tarquin is in real trouble.

Well done! Brutally efficient. All key goals were met. A griping tale of righteous violence and a well-earned victory No good guys were hurt, and all left the manor safe. Ned and Enrico were retrieved and moved to safety. The several US guards were quickly and simply killed with no lingering pain. No alert was sent to the Merrickville Barracks. The US military will be surprised when no calls are answered in the morning. The one person who deserved to be shocked and suffer did. Graves resisted when confronted and engaged in a fight with West. He was finally destroyed by a powerful shotgun blast from a determined Peter as began to aim his pistol at West. He will need to have a closed casket funeral. I expect his failure will mean Stephen Miller will demand he not be buried at Arlington National Cemetery West was able to reach Will just before his planned resignation press conference. Will took a new direction and was forceful and indignant and shocked the press corps and the nation. He stated he had three sons and did not hide Ned's identity. The media will go after this story and Trump will be hurt. "Because last night," Will continued, his voice dropping even further, forcing them to lean in, "agents of the opposition crossed a line from corruption into outright terrorism. They kidnapped a member of my family. They threatened to torture him. They issued an ultimatum: my public surrender, or his death." Will then gave a new energizing force to his campaign that should win broad public support and win him independents and wavering voters. "I am not withdrawing from this race. I am charging into the heart of it. And I make you this promise now, on my son's life: when I take that oath of office, justice is coming. Not political games. Not partisan revenge. Real, blind, terrifying *justice*. For every bribe, for every lie, for every threat whispered in the dark. We are going to take this country back."

What scent is Eau de Occupation? I bet it is Old Spice

Yarima, the soundsmith was captured by Fenn and Ain after Ain's face was burned by Yarima. It bturns out she is the daughter of the Queen of their enemy and wanted to kill. Ahe has the ability to take other's powers. She wanted to take Ain's powers to kill her mother. Yarima can be held by Fenn and not get away Ain led his men to a jail to hold Marina and question her, Sadly, Yarima escaped when a guard freed her. He did it because she told the guard she will kill her mother. The guard liked this mission and hated Fenn since he was a shadowforger and cannot be trusted, Fenn was crushed and concerned about the prejudice against him. Ain sought to Fenn but he was not effective. Things are getting more complicated. Yarima has escaped and there are not easy hints about her location.

Will it be Oliver for Axl?

Here are my thoughts about what might follow next after these cliffhangers I hope you solve these problems. You undoubtably will be more creative and insightful than me...... I think you are going to have some delicate choreography to carry out in your next chapter(s) Peter knows the manor and can get he and West in secretly I expect. I hope they arrive in time with Graves focusing on seeking to fuck Ned so that he will not notice them. Being caught in fragrante delicto could disorient Graves . I suggest they must kill Graves silently or without much sound so that any guards will not hear them. Graves needs to be dead so he cannot identify them for later arrest. Hopefully, Ned heard enough of the call to Miller so he knows where Will is. West can use Graves line in the manor to call Will and say Ned is safe. A fully dressed Ned, West and Peter can go the lower level of the manor, kill any guard, and take Enrico away and hide Ned and Enrico for now,

So, you posit that Tarquin is motivated by being dominant and controlling, but not in a sexually gratifying way. His drug, as you say, is dominion We are expecting Tarquin's plans to be revealed, broken apart and he will fail miserably and potentially publicly. Can he stand this loss and maintain his sanity? You have commented- "As for Tarquin's plan, oh yes, the bastard has a plan, and a contingency plan. He's sitting in that iron clad bunker that being Rich, old money, and connected provides. That armour needs to be dismantled in a place and manner that it can't be hidden. Gala Weddings are good for that, so many people around, and cameras." I can see when his pride and arrogance lead him into traps and he cannot succeed, then Tarquin might have a full mental breakdown and need to be confined in a proper mental health institution. He could no longer threaten Orel, Finn or Oliver. Please do not let Tarquin get away. I cannot wait to see how you show Tarquin being taken down,

Orel and Finn are getting married, and they are getting ready for it. Kyle is helping Orel work past his barn trauma and stepwise move into a comfortable romantic relationship beginning with real kisses, II am betting they make a real success of it. Oliver has worked out his and the marriage details with Tarquin, He gave in on the name change. He will stay in town and he has declined the offer from Jared. Tarquin revealed more of his real plans, He will resign as mayor and then run for federal legislative office on the liberal party. He is working through Strickland not Oliver who Tarquin can no longer trust. Mysteriously, Strickland has said the bankruptcy papers are ready to file and 120 million has been transferred to the solar farms project. What enterprise or company is being taken into bankruptcy? Who will take the public blamed for it? Will Oliver find out in time to stop the bankruptcy filing and loss of money if the Merrick Trust is involved? A not publicly known large scale solar project involving many local governments is planned that may be unsound. Tarquin at some point will have no control over Orel or all the assets he owns. Oliver will have to stand up to Tarquin.

You have set up two perfect cliffhangers Graves has told Miller that he has Ned and he can be used to force Will to resign or they are going to announce his existence and ruin his reputation Ned has overheard Grave's plan being accepted by Trump's man Miller. Ned is considering how to knock out or kill Graves and escape. Ned sees Graves body and he has muscles from working out. He will not be easy to take down. Ned has to act fast. Graves is going to enter him and is distracted. Ned had hoped West and Peter had arrived to stop Graves. So far, Ned is on his own, Does Ned get fucked or is Graves taken out? The second cliffhanger--Does Will announce his retirement from the campaign as required by Miller to save his family and Ned? Miller called Will and told him Ned has been captured by the US Army and will be available for showing as his illegitimate son and propaganda item for the Trump campaign to ruin his reputation . Will is planning on announcing his retirement for family reasons tomorrow morning. Jacob has learned of Will's plans and strongly objects. Does Will carry out his retirement from the campaign at a press conference as he plans? Does he get a last minute notice that Ned is safe out of US Army control?

I lived in Korea for a year in the US Army and learned children were not named commonly until their first birthday.

A weakened Ain faced the soundsmith near the bodies of the assumed enemy when he entered the house alone. Will the white haired assassin turn on Ain and try to take away his powers again? I hope Fenn can step in and protect Ain.

Oh My---The two talked. It was hard and clumsy at first. But they let each other know they really like each other. Fenn was worried he would be another conquest for Ain as the Bulwark suggested he would be. Ain said he felt much stronger about him as a fling. Ain and Fenn went after the palace assassins who fled a town identified by the knife welder after Ain tortured him. The enemy denied a soundsmith was part of his forces. They were directed to a vacant bordered up house. The best action it seems was to knock the door in and be ready to kill the ones inside. Fenn led the charge and moved inside after the door has handled. He found two dead bodies and the soundsmith inside. Now what.... Can he disable or win a fight with the soundsmith? Why did the magical being kill the assassins?

Caleb brought his sister to the Citadel to be harvested. She forgave him and expressed her total love for him. Her sincere loving thoughts gave Caleb and Leo a way out from this demonic place and they took it bringing down the citadel. They left Silas , the demon lord, behind for a human life on earth Caleb found his much younger brother. The four of them drove for hours and began a new human life. Caleb and Leo took entry level jobs as a watchman and night shift janitor. They took care of Sarah and her brother and built a new life. They were pleased and learned their feeling grew into romantic love. Life changed for them. However, they are not really free, unknown to them Silas was observing them

What a heavenly life. work at a slow pace and then at the end of the day drink beers with friends at the beach. Noah's parents might feel he needs to be more responsible and find a better job in London. He will have that conversation when they visit later. Noah found he was upset at a friend offering to find a female date for Leo, his good friend. Noah did not like the offer but he did not really understand why. Leo turned down the date invitation and Noah felt much better. These two seem to like each other more than they now consider, but are not aware what to say or do about it.

So, Finn is free from legal trouble. you are saying. Somehow all the stolen property evidence in his garage is no longer his and Finn is not awaiting trial. This new arrangement would let Tarquin think he control's Finn and Orel. When they say no to him and mean it, Tarquin will be shocked, He will own very little and Orel and Finn will own and control it all. I suggest they get advice from Oliver who may be going to Ottawa and Lydia.

Orel with his requirement to community property will upset Tarquin's plan of control of all the Merrick assets. They will be Grady assets now and not subject to his control. Tarquin will be livid when he finds out. For now, Tarquin probably is ignoring the critical details, just pleased that he thinks he won. BTW, Tarquin must think he can control the two newlyweds. But, I think he will find out he cannot. Meanwhile a reputable effort by two experts is underway that will give evidence to oppose Tarquin's claim of guardianship/conservatotship. Tarquin's request to legally control Orel might be moot since he will be an adult and soon to be married.
