I have to say I felt physically ill watching Chloe's scenes in Thursday's show. It disturbed me so much that after she went off with Randy, I really couldn't concentrate on anything else. Chloe has been a favorite character of mine for more than a decade and I have related to her from time to time, so to see her reduced to this was cruel. Cruel to the character and cruel to the viewer.
Plus, it was illogical. Quinn blackmailed Chloe by threatening to make it look like she was taking money for sex, so she agrees to take money for sex in order to keep people from thinking she is taking money for sex. I still think that there was always a way out, that she has enough people in her corner (Justin, Brady, Maggie) that she could have just said I'm in trouble and I'm afraid I'll lose my son over it but here's the real story.

I agree that there had to be a way out of this situation. Brady would have been able to figure out a plan. I am sure that Justin & Adrienne would have been willing to help as well. I can understand that Chloe may not feel comfortable involving Maggie in this mess. But as members of the Kiriakis family, Brady and J&A would understand a blackmail situation and exactly how best to handle it. There's also the problem of showing where your income is coming from if the court wants that information.

I agree kpatch....bad story all around, not entertaining, not even watchable.... Justin tells her she has to be able to "prove" she can support herself and her son.....she says she can't let her parents help because then she couldn't "prove" she can support herself....so she turns a trick to get money to "prove" she can support her son....so she's going to tell them, oh, yeah, I have an income, I'm a hooker..... Cause how can she "prove" she has money if she can't tell them how she makes it.... I truly dislike the whole thing.....

Chloe didn't do it for the money.I think there is a purpose to her asking for the money but she didn't do it for the money. I recall that the first time with Quinn, she took the money in roder to move to an appartement.Yet she is still living in a hotel room.Which means for me that she actually did give the money to charity like she said to Quinn....
And Chloe feels she can't trun to anyone because they all failed her before.And even if they did help her and get her out of this,if any of this gets to the SW's ears, she would lose her baby specially if Victor and kate pay them or the judge in order to do so...I totally understand where Chloe is coming from...she's not doing it for money but to not lose her baby. She didn't go to Quinn and told him "I want to work for you" . He came to her,told her that if she doesn't,game over,she loses her baby..that's why she did it.Clhoe will need saving but whatever happens between Chloe and a client is RAPE.

Yeah! I'm pretty sure Quinn's Call Girls, Inc., does not send out official paychecks on the 1st and 15th of every month.

I'm also extremely disappointed. I was hoping that the first John was it, and that Chloe would be redeemed (in the eyes of the viewer) but this has gone past the point of no return. I mean, I still love Chloe, but hate what the Days writers have done to her. This is not the Chloe we love. This is a shell of the character who was so strong. A slap in the face to Chloe, the actress, and us viewers.

Ugh is all I can say. I was disappointed in her, but then again when it comes to your children, some women will Do anything !

Why not go to Brady for a job? Or, the magical hospital/Brady pub/Cheatin' Heart/Chez Rouge where everyone works? I mean, there's lots of opps for her to explore until her singing career take off. And, lots of people in Salem who'd help her get grounded.

I agree totally and I'm not defending her actions, but I think she doesnt want to go to anyone because she has already messed things up and is embarrassed and also because there is the chance she will lose Parker if this comes out. Shes just hoping that it will stay quiet. I just hope that she doesn't leave Salem badly. I hope they turn the character around by then. Please. For the viewers. Give her a nice, good send off

I totally agree! The whole thing makes me sick. I may make an executive decision to FF the Lola scenes, they are too sad. And I agree, I hope they remind everyone of the Chloe that is SMART and SELF ASSURED before she leaves. She deserves better than to be the hot girl who cheats on her husband and becomes a prostitute.

I hope they show this s/l as little as possible. I wish that Quinn would get some dirt on Kate and let Chloe out of this mess. He does have his guy working on something but we weren't told what that is.

I know what you mean, fluffysmom. Seriously, I wish she'd wake up from this as some really bad dream and gets her groove (and not in the sack) back.

They'd better do something to redeem Chloe. After all, if Victor could get his happy ending after all the dastardly things he's done in the past, Chloe should have a free pass to happily ever after. Hmph.

Honestly I haven't been a fan of Chloe in a long while,BUT I do love Nadia and really feel she deserves better than this.I'm hoping that Quinn will fall onto something he can use against Kate and he'll give this thing up with Chloe.I'm still having a hard time with the idea that Kate,a former prostitute herself,would put another woman through this,no matter how much she hates her.
