To understand how the “Soap Game” works or to see how points are rewarded, visit the Soap Game page!

Today’s winner is John McBain with 8 points, or maybe just 6, and then he shares the honor with Clint.  (Yesterday, David won with 22.)

*I’m not sure the points awarded mutually to John, Brody and Natalie should count as none of them are technically “significant others.”  I am counting John and Natalie as significant others right now because of the absolutely horrifying number of times that John sees Natalie hugging Brody and Natalie sees John hugging Kelly.  But, even if I took away John’s points for that, he would still tie for winner with Clint!

*I am also not counting any references to Eddie Ford.  It is just too much trouble!  If anyone else wants to go to the trouble, feel free!

The Mayor’s Wedding

What is that we see?  Mayor Dorian Cramer Lord asked long-time rival Victoria Lord Banks to be her matron of honor!  It wasn’t that long ago they were mud-slinging in the mayoral race, where Viki actually beat Dorian by one vote before resigning due to personal family-related issues.

And that drab setting?  A courthouse!  Perhaps appropriate considering that the mayor is now marrying into the Buchanan clan.  That’s right — Buchanan as in Buchanan Enterprises, the company she staged a hostile takeover of by buying up stocks and exposing a fraud.  She renamed the company Cramer Enterprises before mysteriously handing it back over to the Buchanans following a mishap with her adopted daughter’s biological uncle.  Hmm.

Recent brawls aside, the “Cramer” family has a long history with the Buchanans and they have even shared family ties before, but Mayor Lord herself has a notorious romantic history with new husband David’s Uncle Clint and Clint’s son Cousin Joe Buchanan.

Not for naught, Clint is Viki’s ex-husband, and the father of her son, the aforementioned Joey.  Viki also happens to be very good friends with the groom and his best man, “Pa” Bo Buchanan, the police commissioner.

Dorian seems to be cozying up to the whole big happy family now!  And they love it!  Can anyone tell us what is going on!?!
