Passions-Its all Coming to a close

Tweet

For all you Passions fans that lost track when they moved to DirecTV, for those that couldn't keep up with the new schedule and couldn't watch for one reason or another, the show will be shortly coming to a close. After ten years, the craziest soap opera known to man, Passions, will soon be going off the air for good. I don't know how many episodes we have left, but knowing they stopped taping in May, hearing that we would only get episodes throughout the summer, and knowing Mr. James E. Riley's writing style, its not much left. Let me recap what is going on right now, and you can ask me any fill-it-in questions you may have in response: Antonio Lopez-Fitgerald is back in Harmony. Turns out that he wasn't on the plane that Alistair blew up, and was kept prisoner (but very well fed, as they brought back the original actor and he dun got padded lol. He's a little fluffy) anyway, he came back during the four wedding ceremony they are having (Luis and Fancy, Miguel and Kay, Noah and Paloma, and Gwen and Ethan's re-commitment ceremony) to reclaim Sheridan. She fought it for a minute but Antonio has learned that the past lives stuff had something to it, and believes they are meant to be together instead of Sheridan and Luis (duh he's marrying YOUR NIECE!!!) so she finally gives in to try. Meanwhile there is a woman who vows to kill Pilar Lopez-Fitzgerald and her entire family because she believes Pilar was the cause of her family being killed. Juanita Vasquez, the woman in question, has a bomb in the basement set to go off. But you know how Passions is. It was set for 20 mins when the bomb was first set and shown. They've been showing it for a whole week, had three of the four weddings, and we've still got about 9 1/2 mins on the durn thing!!! Anways you may have been led to think that since Ethan and Gwen are having a re-commitment ceremony that Teresa is out of the picture. Well, at least Ethan thinks she's dead. What happened was Gwen found out Pilar's secret about Juanita a while ago. Gwen told Pilar that she'd better keep Teresa away from Ethan, and not tell that little Ethan was his child or she would call Juanita and tell her where she was. Pilar tried to keep this from Teresa yet live up to her end of the bargain, but finally she told. Teresa got the bright idea she could talk to this crazy woman and went down to Mexico to do so so she could tell Ethan the business. Long story short she got thrown into the ocean and thought to be eaten by sharks. We find out that she was rescued by secret agents and kept in hiding from Juanita (Did I tell you she was a mobster?) in hopes to catch her. Teresa aint going for that so she finds a way to break loose and get back to Harmony. She gets back, but knows if she were to tell anyone she was alive Juanita would come to find her and her family, so she disguises herself as an ugly nanny that takes care of the kids for Gwen and Ethan while they try to rekindle their relationship, for the kids sake of course. Fast forward some more, Lil Ethan, Paloma, then Pilar find out that the nanny, "Gertrude" is actually Teresa. Gwen and Rebecca find out a little while later, but they keep quiet because if Ethan found out he would never re-marry Gwen. Meanwhile Juanita tracks them down, finds out about the weddings, and hence sets the bomb in the church. And she just found out that "Gertrude" is Teresa, and supposedly shoots her on Monday (Nothing's changed, never trust the promo reel) To sum things up the bomb is not the only thing to worry about. Tabitha and Endora know that a Volcano is bound to erupt in Harmony. Tabitha has lost her powers and Endora is a teenager (For more on that backstory, you will have to ask) So I am just waiting on Monday to see where Mr. Riley takes it. Since I've wasted so much time on it the past 4-5 years I have to see where it all is going to end. Any questions you guys? Consider me the Passions guru! I can tell you what you need to know!
