We hope at least one of these works for you! If not, let us know -- there are other sites that provide east coast streams for NBC. And if you know of other live streaming sites that work better, please post the links!

Thank you, laurondo for letting us know Sonny's conversation with Victor continues today!

Let's get the party started, live watchers!

Wish I could be part of it, but gotta do my job, etc. Boo!

[peggin.livejournal.com]

Same here! I'll probably try to follow the conversation, but I can't actually watch the show. :(

Wally Kurth's dimples are still adorable after all these years.

w: woman, d: dad, m: mom

w: so sonny's back in salem
d: yeah, he got back yesterday (WTF??????)
w: how long is he staying?
m: he didn't say

w: you must be so excited, yadda yadda

i hope it's not too dull for him here. i remember when he was a little kid he was always so industrious. he always had a project
d: remember his newspaper?
m: my god, I thought the neighbours were gonna kill him. or us.

w: well I'm sure victor will be glad he's here
m: well, maybe not
w: why's that?
*hesitation*
d: he wants people to know
m: you're right, absolutely
w: know what?

*

v: i must have misunderstood, I thought i heard you say you were gay
s: no, you heard right
since when
all my life?
brady put you up to this, didn't he? wait 'til I get my hands on him
no, no one put me up to this. i said I was gay because i am

[peggin.livejournal.com]

he got back yesterday

Seriously? I mean, I know sometimes a day on a soap opera can last a few weeks in real time, but just yesterday Justin told Victor that he was two days late with paperwork because Sonny was in town. And also, why would Victor be all insulted about Sonny not coming to see him if he'd only been in Salem for one day? That's just a case of writer stupidity there.

brady put you up to this, didn't he?

Even though I want Victor to be accepting and supportive, I kind of like that this was his initial reaction, and that he didn't instantaneously start waving a rainbow flag or something.

[suzvoy.livejournal.com]

That's the same cracky uses of time ATWT was guilty of.

[suzvoy.livejournal.com]

It keeps freezing/skipping, so I may miss something.

[peggin.livejournal.com]

Oh, that sucks! I can't even check to see if there are any other streams right now. I hope it starts working better!

[suzvoy.livejournal.com]

It's improved a bit. Hoping it sticks!

[peggin.livejournal.com]

I hope so, too! I really appreciate that you're sticking in there and posting the scene recaps even though, right now, it seems like you're playing all by yourself!

[suzvoy.livejournal.com]

Sometimes the life of a fangirl is a hard one ;)

[suzvoy.livejournal.com]

v: so, you're gay
s: as pink ink
*SOUND AND VIDEO IS TERRIBLE, MISSED SOME STUFF*

v: I don't know how to react to this. never had anybody in the family who was gay before

v: are your parents aware of this?
s: yeah, I told them years ago
years ago? and how did they react?
okay. it was a bit of a shock. but then i told them about pflag
pflag?
parents and friends of lesbians and gays. that really helped them to understand
if they're so supportive how come they didn't tell me about it?
because they weren't sure you would be. anyway, I'm glad they didn't. this way i get to tell you. face to face

[peggin.livejournal.com]

Gay as pink ink, huh? I've never heard that one before!

I like that Sonny mentions PFLAG!

[suzvoy.livejournal.com]

Never heard of it either!

PFLAG mention \o/

[batty-gal.livejournal.com]

Sonny's parents are awesome, I like how Days set this storyline up so far. It's very realistic.

I sincerely hope that they allow Sami and Lucas to become accepting parents like Justin and Adrienne.

[suzvoy.livejournal.com]

I love his parents! :D

[peggin.livejournal.com]

Justin and Adrienne really are awesome! And ITA, I hope Sami is as accepting as they are. (At this point, I just hope we get to see Lucas; it will be a bonus if he's accepting!)

[batty-gal.livejournal.com]

Considering that they are bringing back Carrie and Austin (as well as John and Marlena), I actually have a little hope that Lucas will come back as well.

so, sonny is gay. well, what's that like for you?
d: you know when he first came to us with such a serious look on his face, he had something to tell us
m: we were like omg he's on drugs
d: and he said he was gay
m: and we were all, that's it? that's all?
d: but then it hits you. that your son is different from you on a way you didn't plan on
m: I started thinking about everything I was saying in front of him
d: we even started thinking if it was anything we did. it got really awkward. so, we went to a support group
m: his idea
d: and it helped
w: family's go through such wild rides
m: sonny's taken us a journey we'd never expected, that's for sure

w: did he tell you how long he's been gay?
d: well, that's just it. he said he's always known
m: he had this cactus theme. cowboys, buffalos, etc. part of the pattern was these two cowboys walking together and sonny said when he was 5 or 6 he looked up at those two cowboys and thought...they're like me (CUTEST STORY EVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEER)
w: oh my
d: rejecting your son because he's gay would be like rejecting him because he has brown eyes
w: he may have a difficult time. there are people out there who have a real misconception about why people are gay

w: does victor know?
he's going to
sonny's telling him right now

IT SKIPPED THROUGH AN ENTIRE SONNY AND VICTOR SCENE, ARRRRRRRRRRRGH

s: so you feel sorry for me because I'm gay
v: i admit it would be better if you prefer women. it would make your life less difficult
you're straight. has it made your life less difficult?
I can get married
and you do. over and over and over (HAHAHAHA)
I hate to think of you being in the hospital and your partner can't be there with you or even get information on your condition
but that's all changing
slowly
think about it. when you were young, everyone was in the closet, calling themselves friends of dorothy or whatever. my school had a gay and lesbian group in the fifth grade
*people might bother you speech*
s: yeah, but I can handle it
v: maybe not in this town. this isn't new york
what does that mean?
there may be people in this town who can't stomach the fact that you're gay
*mom and dad walk in* m: yeah and you better not be one of them

[peggin.livejournal.com]

v: relax, adrienne. i was just telling sonny that not everyone else is going to be understanding as his family. *FREEZING AND SKIPPING, GRRRRRRRRRR*
m: you think that's being understanding?
s: mom, just chill. uncle vic just calls it as he sees it
d: then he obviously needs glasses

*SKIPS*

s: i can navigate the rough waters
m: i just don't know why you have to see the rough waters today
s: uncle vic's not gonna change, and neither am I. and that's okay.

uncle vic asks the woman for a walk, they leave

s: think uncle vic's scared of you, mom
m: looks like you held your own with him
yeah, he's okay
he better keep being okay, or else he's gonna have to deal with me

Hahaha, Kinsey is in this ep with someone else.

"So your sister, the accountant, had a thing with your husband. And you left them in a hotel room alone together?"

[peggin.livejournal.com]

That "someone else" has got to be Nicole; they're talking about Taylor and E.J.

[suzvoy.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I can just never remember anyone's names :D

[peggin.livejournal.com]

I'm glad they're giving Kinsey scenes with other characters. She's very entertaining, so I'd be happy if they gave her a bigger role in the show.

[suzvoy.livejournal.com]

From the little I've seen, I agree!

[suzvoy.livejournal.com]

Nothing in the preview

[peggin.livejournal.com]

That doesn't surprise me. It sounds like they've gone through all the storyline that was mentioned in the spoilers, so that's probably it for the week.

Thanks for recapping all the Sonny scenes for us!

[suzvoy.livejournal.com]

No problem :)

[laurondo.livejournal.com]

No sign of Sonny or Will for tomorrow! Sorry guys.
