What TnT Do For Each Other From Secrets 109I don’t have much to contribute as far as the OLTL goes because I stopped watching weeks ago. I don’t have the stomach for TnB. I still love and look forward to every new chapter of Secrets. I had to bring this passage here because to me this is the major difference between TnB and TnT and why Blair will always destroy Todd and why Todd and Tea need to be together.

From “SECRETS” chapter 109 by Rosie 2, taken from the Sun Moon and Starr site: “For all their many problems, Téa knew that when push came to shove her relationship with Todd was symbiotic. There was mutual caring for each other's needs and wants. Both benefitted from their love. Neither was only interested in what the other could do for them. (NT) -- Elaine, 15:51:40 03/11/01 Sun
ITA, Elaine and I stopped watching OLTL as soon as it was clear that Todd was going after Blair again. The incarnation of Starr into demon child is another reason I don't watch. The love and giving and doing for each other was always mutual with TnT. With TnB there is also lots of giving. Todd does all the giving and Blair does all the taking. Rosie has TnT down perfectly. BTW, this chapter rocked! (NT) -- Lucy, 17:20:37 03/11/01 Sun
Elaine and Lucy... Welcome to the ATB/Todd Board. I am no longer watching the show either. BUT I do read and appreciate Rosie's Secrets. That is a great quote and I'm looking forward to reading this latest chapter. I think I'll print it out for my break tomorrow.. (NT) -- Louise, 19:04:50 03/11/01 Sun
Well, here I come…another Secrets fan out of the woodwork, :-) Hi Elaine, Lucy and Louise…this quote is so much the reason why I always love TnT. What Rosie sees is exactly what I get from their relationship. TnT would lay down and die for each other or for Starr. (NT) -- Sherry, 20:23:43 03/11/01 Sun
Cont'd...Now I'm not saying that this kind of Todd is what I see on T.V. when I watch. The Todd who would gladly die for his little girl is the real Todd that used to be on my T.V. and who is still in Secrets. Todd and Tea are the best thing that ever happened to each other.

Elaine, Lucy and Sherry, HI and welcome. Ok, I've been wanting to START "Secrets" for a while now after hearing all these wonderful passages about TnT and Todd and Téa. Thanks to Rosie as well for what sounds like a wonderful story. I am gonna print this baby out. (NT) -- Jules, 21:54:06 03/11/01 Sun
I can’t believe how consistently great Secrets is. After all this time I look forward to each new chapter and I’m as fascinated with it as I was from the beginning. This was an amazing chapter. ITA on BnN and Rachel and oh man do IA on Tea and TnT. Rosie gets our Delgado so good. My heart is still in my mouth over that last scene and before that it was filled with smiles over Tea’s scene with that adorable alter and what Todd heard. I would love to see RH and FL do this story so much. (NT) -- Anna, 00:16:22 03/12/01 Mon
LoL Sherry, I'm poking my head out of the woodwork too. Television OLTL is too depressing to even talk about. I consider Secrets my OLTL. Not only is it a great Todd and TnT story. It's also, IMO, really OLTL. So many of my favorites are in it or pop up in it, like BnN. Chapter 109 was extraordinary. (NT) -- Beth, 01:59:32 03/12/01 Mon
Hi Elaine, Lucy, Sherry, Anna! ITA with Pilar, nothing brings out the lurkers like one of Rosie's dynamite Secrets chapters! Of course that whole story is splendid. Someone posted a thread on the ABC Board yesterday to Tomlin imploring him to read this chapter and put Rosie on his payroll! ICAM! Elaine, thanks for bringing this wonderful TnT passage here, meshes perfectly with MY vision of TnT and how they were under the Labines! (NT) -- jackie, 12:00:20 03/12/01 Mon
ITA with all of you, this was an amazing chapter added to the entire amazing body of work that Rosie has given us. I can’t count how many times I’ve said to myself that I wish it was Rosie’s vision of TnT and OLTL that we had been subjected to instead of Jill’s vision and now GT’s vision. (NT) -- Mariann, 15:06:30 03/12/01 Mon
Not since my beloved Labines have I seen writing this good and in many ways I think Rosie’s an even better writer than they were. That passage is what TnT are about. Other things Rosie has written about them have also gone right to the heart of TnT. (NT) -- Mariann, 15:08:03 03/12/01 Mon
On top of that, she gets all the other characters, like Viki, Dorian, BnN, Kevin, Sam, Rachel, Starr, even Blair. She turns them into flesh and blood people, with that heart and soul that is so often mentioned when Secrets is talked about. The situations they’re in are realistic and all of this is managed with realistic plots instead of one SPD after another and we get payoff and satisfaction. (NT) -- Mariann, 15:09:56 03/12/01 Mon
I have to make a special mention of the last few scenes in this chapter. They are totally awesome. I’m very happy to hear that Secrets is being brought to ABC’s attention. I hope they read it and see what good writing looks like. I think they have forgotten. //eom (NT) -- Mariann, 15:12:11 03/12/01 Mon
