I think Esme is involved somehow with the attacks. I missed the episode when Brando was stabbed, but are they implying that maybe Joss was the intended target? After Ava. The hook is an odd weapon. Maybe the villain is an escaped Ryan Chamberlain, either working with Esme or avenging her death? Maybe he has a hook in place of his missing hand? A little crazy, but nothing surprises me on a soap. Spencer escaped from jail, Ryan could too...
If Brando dies, Sasha will probably OD on drugs. Losing her baby and husband in a short time would be too much for her to handle.
Seems like the start of a new storyline for Carly, with people from her past. Why is this needed? I don’t like her or Drew and don’t care what happens with them.
