• Having Paul in NYC, he missed out on a number of holidays with the family. Or better put, we missed out on being with him. It was very difficult, but obviously his situation was far better than Casey's. I think Pamela does love Jamie, but in this scene I think she is both jealous and has a deep need to be needed and wanted by a man. She's aware that Belinda is not woman enough for Jamie and yet her place at Jamie's side makes Pamela feel as though she's been replaced. Odd that Jamie kind of screwed the pooch here by saying one thing to Belinda about the horse, and then gifting it to Pamela. (NT) -- Elaine, 22:07:55 08/24/09 Mon

• 54: What a bittersweet chapter. I enjoyed the closeness of the men, making the most of this holiday in prison and Pamela's gifts to all were so meaningful. I wonder how she knew so much about the men close to Casey? I think I started to breathe just a tiny bit again with Jamie's gift to Casey, thinking maybe he is actually going to escape...I needed him out of there :-) I only remember twice, my Dad not being with us for Christmas, Vietnam and Turkey (which he chose to do alone). We almost always celebrated holidays without extended family (grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins) which is something my children have never experienced. (NT) -- Mahri, 06:19:50 08/25/09 Tue

• 55: I think she loves him - different than her love for Casey though. They have a history, she has adored this man since she was what? 9? and he has been there for her in some of her darkest hours. She's jealous, though logically she knows and wants him to find someone to love and who will love him back, I think this is her first experience with actually seeing another in his life. I really really did not like this chapter the first time I read it - after rereading though, I think I understand her a wee bit better. If Casey had been there, I think Pamela still would have had some jealous pangs but I don't think it would've gone as far as it did, the woman is having deprivation dreams...jaysus...those can sometimes make you have the hots (temporarily) for someone you never even looked twice at before *g* Not at all surprising that this happens between J & P considering the circumstances.

• I got all excited about the party and was glad to see some celebration among the fighting and hardships everyone was enduring. I quite enjoyed the fight between Pamela and Belinda. Yes, I have been apart from someone during the holidays and because it was a holiday all the emotions were amplified and the memories bittersweet but once the holidays were over I still missed the person just as much. I think Pamela does love Jamie but in a different way from how she loves Casey. I think there is some possessiveness on her part which I think is natural considering that she has loved him a long time and first told Jamie in EU. They are close and share a lot of history so I think it's only natural to feel like he is hers expecially when another woman coms on scene and threatens that. (NT) -- Tracy (), 11:24:57 08/25/09 Tue
