In the latest video, Bree and Daniel (along wiht the wimpy assistance of Jonas) tied up Jules and Kidnapped her. Near the end you can see the characters outside talking while Jules is hog-tied and layin gon the floor in the background... banging on the window and screaming for help.

What's up with this??

I think they did what they felt they had to in order to protect her. I also think they probably thought they were running out of time to do something because of comments Jules's made in her blog about restrictions from the computer.

My vote is to call it a necessary evil.

There are so many directions these characters could have taken other than this that could bring interest and resolution to this story. Creators you've chosen to take this insane, misdircted direction. I have no idea why. These characters aren't real people making real choices, they are scripted figments of your imagination. I must say it makes me wonder . . .

Really, you couldn't come up with anything better?

kidnapping...seriously?

So insane. They don't even know she's doing the ceremony!

As for where this is going to go? Well, Daniel, keep a good grip on that soap.

I voted stupid idea... not necessarily that which came after the initial 2 words, but yeah, stupid idea,

I mean... Daniel WAY BACK in the day followed Bree around and was able to figure out quite a bit being a creepy stalker with a camera, this couldve been done...

I dont know it just seems off...

I agree it's better than the bunker the way those episodes were written, but it's only better because they didn't play the bunker the way they could and should have.

The bunker could have been fascinating - a wealth of information and anwers to the mysteries left unsolved so far, and a host of new mysteries to uncover introduced. At a bare minimum - it could have layed a plausible foundation for the kidnapping - like . . . um . . . maybe learning just exactly what it is about the ceremony that makes it so threatening that the TAAG is motivated to drive like bats out of hell cross country to a little Texas town to kidnap a helpless girl?

Really. It wouldn't have been that hard.

I have to say though, the kidnapping really improved my opinion of Jules. Shes really spunky!
Damn!
She's all talking back to her captors like a bad ass. I am totally rooting for her now.

And it totally changed my opinion of Bree. She's one crazy B*tch.

I have to agree. I somehow wonder if that's the point. "everyone" hated Jules so they needed a way to make her more popular... like a sympathy stunt. (Personally, I didn't dislike the character of Jules, just thought the acting was bad.) So why make us turn against Bree,,,??
