The fun continued to this week with more of the "reception" at Jake's. I don't know what was better - the karaoke, or the normally uptight Kate lapping up all the attention that Coleman was showing her. I must say that seeing John York AGAIN making mincemeat out of his material was a joy to behold. Shaking his money-maker and singing "Macho Man" alongside Patrick and Coleman, York literally had me in tears from laughing so hard. We NEVER get to see this side of anyone on this show, least of all Mac or Patrick. Makes me think of the good old days when getting scenes like this was a usual occurrence (remember when Mac dressed as a woman to help Kevin rescue Lucy?). The zinger would've been getting Edward up there - what song would be fit for Edward to sing? I'm thinking Elvis' "Teddy Bear" because it just doesn't fit Edward at all - which would've made it hilarious as hell.

Hmm, how about Claudia? She could sing "All Your Goodies Are Gone." I don't know the words to this Parliament/Funkadelic classic (or even if it has words) but ya gotta love the oh-so-appropriate title, right? Claudia, thanks to overhearing a crucial conversation between Kate and Olivia, now has Olivia over quite the barrel. She forces her to break up with Johnny by threatening to reveal all about Dante. I'm beginning to think that Olivia can kick the same amount of ass as Claudia, so I'm hoping for an all-out war here, not just your standard soap catfight. Olivia has legitimate concerns for Dante's safety because he is the actual informant, not the poor schmoe that Dante pointed the finger at and who will probably end up getting tossed in the drink. The opportunity to save herself fell right in Claudia's lap because soap characters have never learned not to reveal important information in a public place.

Here's a song for Keifer: "Creep." Yeah, the lyrics don't fit but the title sure does. Once again, we see him rough up Kristina because the abusive little bastard can't take no for an answer - and has also clearly shown that he can't move three feet in any direction without Kristina hanging on his arm. Pathetic to the highest order. What's going to happen with Sonny or Jason find out just how this monster has been treating Kristina? The sad fact is, teens do find themselves in this type of relationship, and girls this age do find themselves being pressured by their boyfriends to have sex. It's the oldest form of emotional blackmail in the book: If you love me, you'll do it. If you don't do it, I'll find someone who will. And girls fall for it hook, line and sinker. But rarely do they counter with the ultimate comeback my dad taught me: If you love ME, you will wait. Kristina later sought birth control counsel from Sam, who found herself at a loss for the right words, another true-to-life occurrence, but I really wish Kristina would admit to just how much pressure Keifer is putting on her.

Well, now that I've lectured on the evils of taking an action that one is not emotionally ready for, let's jump into what happens when you really start throwing 'em back. That would be you, Kate. Yes, Coleman is pretty hot and we love Blake Gibbons in all his sexiness. But Coleman is so far out of Kate's league that he's not even registering on her radar - or so we thought. After one too many, Kate was loving the hell out of Coleman flirting with her and the two even shared a kiss. Here I was thinking, hmmm... this actually may have some potential. A real "Uptown Girl" love story in the making. I can almost picture Sonny chortling with glee upon seeing Kate and Coleman together. He would be so busy laughing, he wouldn't have time to get jealous or even question it. That's how unalike this possible pairing are, but yet it still holds somewhat of a fascination. Could Coleman and Kate make it work?
