History threatens to repeat itself all over Llanview --with brand new implications for the future (read: the results won't be pretty). To begin with: SHE'S BACK. Jessica's breakdown after learning the truth about Natalie, Brody, and the father of her baby opens the door for an old foe to return. Yes, Tess takes over this week, which can't mean anything good for Natalie or Brody. And as for baby-daddy Ford? Tess has a plan … and a deal to offer him.
Meanwhile, Jessica's not the only one going off the deep end after the Natalie/Brody revelations. John totally flips out, cleans house at Rodi's, and turns to an unexpected source of comfort: Kelly Cramer. Would John sleep with Kelly just to get back at Natalie? Hint: Yes.
Danielle and Nate's plans to have sex for the first time hit a snag in a major way. As in: Todd catches them in the act. Hey, we said history was going to be repeating itself, and that means Todd flips out just like he did when he caught Starr and Cole in the act. What do you think will happen next?
In other history-repeating news, Charlie -- distraught over the news that Rex isn't his son -- turns to an old demon of his. Does that mean he starts drinking again? Or does it mean he turns to the adulterous embrace of Echo DiSavoy? Also, doesn't that last sentence read like a Russ Meyer movie title?
All this, plus: Nora and Tea team up to try and coax Vimal into signing a statement against Clint, Joey makes a rash (and potentially disastrous) decision about Aubrey, and Tomas causes waves in Llanview.
What do you think about the events to come this week? What would you like to see? Sound off below!

First of all, I deeply feel sorry for Jessica, John, Brody, and yes Natalie, in just this order. Everyone needed to know the truth, but I don't like the way it came out. Poor Jess is just so pitful b/c she came clean early to Brody. I hate the fact that she will go into Tess country. Poor John,I guess he feels that's way the cookie crumbles. I can't stand Marty she makes me sick. I guess John has forgotten what caused Nat and Brody to sleep together,he is part of the blame. I really do believe that Nat's baby is really John's. I wish she had come clean and told him the truth but of course now it's too late. I hope somewhere down the line, the two can make peace with each other, b/c as I stated earlier, I truly believe that John is the father of Nat's baby. Now let's get to Charlie who is a poor excuse for a man, and he's certainly not the one for Vickie. The very nerve of him to go looking for that stinking, home wrecking, Echo DiSavoy,my, my, how lame can you get, and of course Echo is just sucking it all up knowing good and well she knew that Clint was Rex's father.I don't wish the worst for Charlie I would like for the storyline to allow him to get medical help, but not before Echo is fully exposed of her part in all of this mess, then just kick her off after she's been punished. Let's get back to Clint, I just can't wait for him to get his, but I would like for the storyline to allow Clint to bring Aubry and Cutter down to their knees, since they pushed the so called wedding through today. I don't anyone more qualified than Clint himself, to fix those two. Gosh, how stupid can Joey get? Just wait when strange things start happeing Joey is in for a rude awakening. I feel so sorry for Kelly, she really did't deserve that king of treatment. Oh! as the saying goes, payback is a you know what- I don't like the idea that John and Kelly will sleep together b/c she deserves better. Last but not least I just wonder how does Rex plain to explain to Bo that he's known for awhile where Clint sent David. I'm sure that won't be very pretty. Here are my deep wishes for the couples, Kelly /Joey, John/Natlie, Rex/GG, Bo/Nora, Dorian/David, Tea/Todd, Starr/James, Ford/Langston- I can't say for Vickie right now b/c everything is so messed up right now.
Tess again?? really?? This is the MOST boring, contrived, overused plot device EVER. I feel sorry for Bree Williamson; she must be so sick of her character's inconsistencies. This is lazy, lazy, lazy writing.
It would be so much more authentic for Jessica and Ford, as total strangers, to have to learn to parent together. There are many teenage and young adult parents who might benefit from such a storyline, and there's certainly plenty of opportunity for drama. The writers have really wasted an opportunity.
I don't know what's going on with old Todd/new Todd (if some of the posts are to be believed), but, AGAIN, why waste our time recycling old story lines, ESPECIALLY if you're just going to have the same conclusions to the old story lines?? Lazy, lazy, lazy . . . isn't it better to see Todd grow and mature, and handle walking in on his daughter better this time around?
I'm really disappointed in OLTL. Controversy merely for controversy's sake is not exciting storytelling - it's just bad.
I think todd needs to chill when it comes to his daughters and their boyfriends. those girls are old enough to make their own decisions. i hope tess don't stick around too long.she is a pain in the rear. i also think vicki can do bad by herself she don't need charlies help.so if he do sleep with eco vicki should just move on. no need of crying over spilled milk. i think charlie want eco anyway.and vicki knows it too.when is aubrey and cutter going to get caught. i hope they do before it's to late.
Here we go again. Jess does not need to bring out Tess again. Bre had to grow up without her mother, why should Ryder. Get rid of Tess quickly. John and Natalie need another DNA test run, because that is John's baby. Do another test for Brody and Jess, because that should be their baby. Vicki should address the DNA test. Get Ford out of the picture. What's the problem here. We know that Rex is Clint's and do bring David back, so he and Rex can fight together. Make Vickie's life better. Get Echo out of the picture. She has made enough trouble already. Charlie needs some peace and he and Vicki need to go away for a second honeymoon to get things better. Kelly needs to find out the whole truth before Audrey and Joey get married. She knows the truth but has no proof. Audrey and her "brother" are not good for this picture, they need to be gone.
i agree john and natalie learn natalie's and john's in the prewiews it shows that john holding the baby
Todd not Todd but an imposter? Pleeeze, let's not go there on yet another soap. I m so tired of actors leaving a show and then history rewriting itself to accommodate their return. The writers must think the viewers are idiots. How do they propose explaining how this Todd's DNA matched Danni's? They go that route and I promise you I will turn the show off for good. It won't be the first soap I've dumped when the writers insulted my intelligence.
Virmal said he changed the father to Brody, but he also said the father's real name was Robert Ford.
I too believe the only DNA test changed was Natalie's. Vimal did say he only changed one and had to change it to show Brody the father. Just hope they don't drag out the truth with another overdone Jess/Tess storyline. How stupid can Kelly be with handing over the video w/o watching it lst. And Joey marrying Aubrey makes him look stupid as well. Can't stand that storyline. PLEASE, please do not bring back the old Todd making the new Told an imposter. I love them both, but, come on writers you need to be a little more creative. Bring David back. He needs to come back, so he and Rex can make Clint pay for the havoc he's created. Hope Echo and Charlie ride off in the sunset together. Vicki deserves better than whiney Charlie.
I dont want Tess to come back. Let Jess do her thing.
I'm so happy that John and Natile are through I didn't like them as a couple Natile has always been a B**** and wanting someone else man her and John to me didn't make sence pluse I don't like how they made Marty crazy. I hope that what ever happens please do not put John and Natile back together no chemistry and fire with them they are a borring couple, but who I do like is Rex and Gigi make them the next power couple on the show thanks love the show always.
I would like to just point out that Vimal said he changed the test results to read Brody he didn't say which sister he changed that one, both start with a B Brennan Buchanan I think I spelled that right. Anyway, I believe that the babies are Brody's and John's just got to drag this out for spring break. As for the Tess thing, come on Let it go already if every time something goes really bad she's popping out then she's not integrated is she. She should be able to handle this with out an alter ego, does that mean when Vicky finds out about Charlie Nicky will pop out to. Looks to be a good summer on OLTL can't wait.
