Thumbs Up! The Scheme Team (SOD 11/21/06)

It was painful watching Dorian's stalker plot devolve the character into an unsympathetic fiend. Dorian has always been a great character in spite of her flaws and propensity for naughtiness because her scheming was usually fun. Fortunately, David and his portrayer, Tuc Watkins, have put Dorian on track.

When David weaseled his way back into La Boulaie, OLTL pulled it off without making Dorian swallow her pride after being left at the altar. Naturally, there have been sexual sparks, and just as naturally, they've found common ground in their desire to hatch plots, like the scheme to bilk money out of Asa and/or Spencer after they learned about the paternity bombshell. It's made Dorian great again and has us rooting for her, which is the way we like it. It also has us echoing our colleague Carolyn Hinsey when we plead, "Please don't leave, Tuc!"
