All My Children- Bianca & Reece Sharing a Wedding with Greenlee & Ryan. . .Really?

I've watched All My Children for quite some time since "Binx" (Bianca for newer fans) was a little girl.

On today's episode, Ryan and Greenlee chose February 14th as their wedding date ...the same wedding date as Bianca's & Reece's wedding. When Greenlee found out that it was the same date as Bianca's wedding, Greenlee offered to pick another date, but Ryan was intent on keeping the same date.

Bianca, overhearing this conversation, came up with the idea of having a joint wedding.

Erica, Bianca's mom, was the only one to protest (in part b/c she's not a fan of Greenlee), about how Bianca's wedding date should be her own special day. Am I the only one to agree with Erica? 

We finally get a lesbian wedding/ union ceremony on ABC daytime, and it's going to be shared with another couple? While I am a Greenlee fan, this is disappointing . . .

 

Let me know what you think about this storyline.

I think Greenlee is going

I think Greenlee is going to die and Kendall will get her heart. Seems familiar. Like when Gillian went into a coma and Ryan gave permission to give her heart to Laura. When AMC was awesome.

I know the actress that plays Greenlee is leaving for good. I don't think they'll have a joint wedding. But I think it would be sweet if they did. I love all four of them. I loved Greenlee and Binx since they hated each other and Greenlee outed her. They've come a long way, and they're cousins. I think it would be endearing. And just special because "Greenlee" is leaving the show and Eden probably wont stay around long. I think it would be right.

For me it's not about the lesbian wedding, although I'm stoked about it. It's more about characters I grew up with coming together and being on screen together. Greenlee and Bianca are the only reasons I held on to the show after the incredibly sad departure of Hayley and Maria. I'm just disappointed that Greenlee never got it on with Kendall.

Not really sure what will happen to Greenlee

But since a character that was written off this past summer (with a very odd and unexpected background) will return early next week for a brief stay and Kendall will end up with his heart. Kendall is supposed to wake up before the end of January.

hmmm

Well for me to place Bianca's wedding next to the biggest male star on the shows wedding is a wonderful way to bookend the show having a pro-gay marriage stance.  

If Ryan and Greenlee's happy day is shown next to Bianca and Reese's what better way to say - marriage is marriage no matter the partners sex.

Rumors are the Rylee wedding isn't happening though as Budig is leaving the show. 

 The plot lately is nice and soapy but talk about treating Bianca and Reese like every other couple on the show with all their drama and love.  As Sarah Warn said - two girls are making out on daytime, on average 3 days a week I might add, and the sky hasn't fallen.  

Daytime has come a long way.

Reese Comment

I am a diehard AMC fan and have to say watching yesterdays episode i was a little shocked. Although i can see the great idea of combining the weddings i still think its unfair to Binks and Reese.
Since they have made so much of a fuss about their relationship i think they should have their own wedding.

What did ya think about Reese's comment though...that she thought it was unfair that if they did go though with the wedding that Ryan & Greenlees would be legal and theirs would just be a celebration??? I couldnt help but think....GRAB ONE OF THOSE JETS AND GO GET MARRIED THAT MORNING....then come back and do it in Pine Valley...so its legal too!!

Pyewacket's picture

Reese's comment.

I was cheering Reese's comment about it not being fair.  I loved that the writers' put that in to the show.  Because it is not fair that Ryan and Greenlee can fall in and out of marriages...all very legally...while Reese and Bianca cannot legally marry once.

They have really made leaps and bounds from when even Bianca was on last time opposite a male actor and her breaking up with Maggie.

They have gone back to their social roots with this show...with both Bianca and Reese...plus the Iraq vets storyline...and that is great for me to see as a long-time viewer of the show.

I was also agreeing with Erica about not sharing the wedding day with another couple.  Plus I hate to say it, but I am seeing and feeling little to no romance with the Ryan and Greenlee relationship...maybe it is because of how abusive he was to her the first time they were married...so there is no big excitement for Greenlee marrying the guy who pretended he was dead so he would never be a father to her children.

I would rather Bianca and Reese just have their own day.

Reese's comment

Was a HUGE nod to the viewers at home watching.  

"Hey daytime viewer - Bianca and Reese should have the same rights as Ryan and Greenlee"

Genius - to me it is in those little ways that as was stated in the Harvey Milk film that American 'gets to know one of us'.

Quietly subversive

 

MaryShannonRocks's picture

I agree shelby, I think it's

I agree shelby, I think it's a total statement out there to people watching about the rights and everything.  I was glad to see a mention in the clip I watched.

 

I actually think Bianca and Reese will be the one to make it to the alter, and we'll continue to see these parallels between the two couples. 

shelby's picture

And what a way to work them into the show

I am so happy to see how well they have moved Reese into the landscape of the show.  And to see Bianca getting her true place as a core character again.  Her and Ryan talking today felt like what it would have been had Leo been still around

 They are like everyone else and I love it! 

plutowasaplanet's picture

True

You bring up some good points Shelby. Today's episode was interesting, with Bianca saying that she might try to test Reese's true feelings . . .could be scandelous.
NoToriousTori's picture

I don't know....

Maybe it's because I'm an only child...but I hate the double wedding idea. They never ever ever work out on soaps and I really really want Breese to have their own special day, by themselves. I remember watching the episode last night and asking myself, "Am I the only one who agrees with Erica...for once?" GreenMememe bought a cool point back when she said they should pick another day but Ryan comtinued to sicken me when he demanded they not change the date. He doesn't listen to Opal, yet he says it's "tempting fate" to change their date. Then the silly suggestion, "you can have it in the evening, and ours in the afternoon..or vice versa" - I mean, I know he's walked down the aisle a few times, and he'd already been married to Greenlee, so it's no big deal but really??  
empiremunchies's picture

When Bianca suggested a

When Bianca suggested a joint wedding I screamed NOOOOO...I mean who really wants to share their wedding with another couple....another couple as dysfunctional as Ryan and Greenlee at that!!!..But after reading another poster who said maybe its AMC's way of saying...love is love, marriage is marriage no matter what the sexes of the couples are. 

Plus I thought....If the actress who plays Greenlee is supposed to be leaving...They aren't going to very well have her get married.  So I don't think Bianca and Reese will have to share their wedding day anyway.

Im just glad AMC is treating this couple like any other in terms of them showing affection and kissing...Hopefully they give us a REAL sex scene on the wedding night! 

 

china's picture

It will happen for them..

Wouldn't it be nice to see them get married in France, in a beautiful castle.

Well, dream on I have to say to myself. At this point they need to deal with several issues before they ever can say Yes, I do (trust you). And maybe they will do that before Valentine's day but I don't believe in this double wedding.

It would be great if AMC will give Bianca and Reese a wonderful day for themselves. So far they have done a pretty good job and this should be the finishing touch before they go back to their new build house in France. It should be such a beautiful heartwarming episode / wedding that eveybody in soapland will keep talking about for days. And if they want people to talk about it for weeks they should give the ladies a romantic / passionate weddingnight.

This is story is too big for a double wedding.

SterlingMB's picture

Ups and Downs

Ok - while I'm not crazy about the double wedding idea (seems kinda tacky really) - I like the point it's making...

I gotta say though - I hate what the writers have done - making Biance this jittery, jealous and insecure character. While I understand where it's coming from (who wouldn't be a little wary of love after her history) the way she's handling her feelings about the whole Zach situation is pretty immature. Has she forgotten entirely that Reese built her a house?! And gave up her family all for Bianca...

Anyways - I'm just gonna try to have faith that the writers will give us what we've been waiting for...a sweet romantic happy ending for Bianca - that will also mark a happy new beginning for Bianca and Reese...

BTW - has anyone noticed the heat those two generate on screen in their passionate moments?! Gotta dig it...

Pyewacket's picture

Well...

Reese didn't quite give up her family for Bianca...Reese ran from her family and her wedding day before she even met Bianca.

Now as far as the heat is concerned...I certainly have noticed it!

Before today's show...just about every little conversation between Bianca and Reese dripped with sex!

No matter what they talked about...it seemed like what they really were talking about was getting each other in bed.  lol

So if they weren't dripping...they were oozing...great stuff.

And while we might not like what we see with Bianca...in soaps there has to be drama...there has to be growth...there has to be another side of a character that we have never seen before.  And we never saw Bianca this deep into a relationship before.  It has always been Kendall and Greenlee...and they have enough insecurities to light up the whole town of Pine Valley.

I guess though we have come to expect more from Bianca.  Though often people complained that Bianca was too perfect...not she is not so perfect any longer...and now people cannot stand seeing her so childish or insecure or dumping her baggage at Reese's feet.

But I think with all of this there will be growth...which will be great...instead of the cycle of insecurity we have gotten over the years with Erica and Kendall.

 

Fresh2Def's picture

Thank Goodness, Reece is not Me

I would be so ghost if Gabrielle wasn't a factor. I like my life to be as stress-free as possible and Bianca is just too much. I get that all her previous girlfriends kinda sucked, but bringing your baggage from those other women into her new relationship is not healthy. I know it's coming as a rude awakening to Reese, but maybe they shouldn't have had a child together after knowing each other for 6 months(?). Something I'm STILL pissed about.

On a much shallower note, Eden looks thick as hell. Bianca was always cute to me, but the extra weight puts her on a whole other level.

darn1121's picture

Preggers

Maybe she is still carrying baby fat LOL... or maybe Eden is preggers and not telling us.
Fresh2Def's picture

Happily Married.

It doesn't look like baby fat. It looks like homegirl is happily married. When I'm happy in a relationship I gain weight, because all I do is eat, sleep, and have sex. Whatever the case she should keep doing it.

Gosh, after today again, if I was Reece they'd call me Casper. I would be so ghost. I must  be invested because I'm actually getting peeved at character logic.

Pyewacket's picture

Only on the show.

Only on the show does Eden look like she added a few pounds.

It could be that they want her to look that way since she is supposed to have just had a baby.

Or it could simply be in comparison to the other actresses, she looks bigger.

I have seen a few soap actresses in New York City and they (as a rule) are very tiny and slender.

I am just about 5ft 4 in and I felt like a giant in their proximity.

Eden is not only taller then your average soap actress...she is more busty then your average soap actress.

But if you look at the Imaginary Bitches series or the PSA on YouTube Eden did in November...Eden does not look heavy at all.

 

MaryShannonRocks's picture

Sterling, yup, it's hot some

Sterling, yup, it's hot some heat!  I've been constantly floored by the heat and the fact that the show just seems to let them be a couple, even in the background scenes.  It's HOT!!!

 I'm ok with the story of Bianca "testing" and everything as long as they work through it.  As someone who'se watched Bianca since coming out, I think it's good character growth for her to finally deal with insecurities.   

SterlingMB's picture

Cringy **SPOILER**

Like I said this is a potential SPOILER so be warned if you want to be completely surprised by your TV the do not read ahead...

Say it ain't so...I've seen posts which indicate that Reese will soon reveal that she does have feelings for Zach. I'm a huge proponent of monogamy and loyalty but for once could we see the lesbians cheat on their partners with other women. I'm soooo hoping this is just yet another stupid rumour that somebody's throwing out there. I really wanna see Bianca happy...I wanna see happy fulfilled lesbians on regular TV living regular (OK...yeah I know the Cambias Jet isn't exactly normal) lives.

So let's hope the spoilers floating around out there are way off and we'll get to see the happy couple get married...and maybe as a bonus they stay in Pine Valley a little while before moving to the Grand Maison in the Loire!

AMC spoilers

This reply is spoiler filled

 

 

Spoilers from the soap magazines are usually misleading. I think the actual spoiler is that Reese expresses her feelings TO Zach. That is WAY different than FOR...her feelings could be about anything. Actually I believe the day before that is to happen Erica brings Reese's mother to their bridal shower. So her feelings could be about that. Again, it could be anything.

That's how I have seen the spoilers on several sites.

Yes, everything I have read about that Reese and Zach spoiler always says 'to' and not 'for.'

Though I also read another spoiler about another awkward moment between Zach and Reese...which I think is only going to be for the titilation factor.

He walks in on her naked. It's uncomfortable for both of them. The both of them act like family to me so all of these awkward moments and over top spoilers don't bother me much.

SterlingMB's picture

Thanks for the hope!

Hey Alisha - thanks for putting a sunny slant on the scuttlebutt. I happen to love Reese and Bianca together. Their story does have it's 'soapy' moments but for the most part it feels pretty organic. I love the way the writers are managing to help combat some stereotypes and put the thermometre on overdrive...those two nearly manage to give Bette and Tina a run for their money on hottest Mommies on the block...

As for earlier comments about Eden's size - I think she's just perfect. I kinda prefer it when a women doesn't look like a strong breeze could cause a fatality anyways ;)!

Spoilers mentioned

Regarding Reese

 

 

This spoiler was on one website, I think. It was Soap Opera Network. And it does say TO not FOR. Which could be about anything. 

 

There is nothing between Reese and Zach but a close friendship and that comes from the actress who plays Reese and she knows the where the storyline is going a whole month ahead in advance.

 

There is also a spoiler that says something about Reese being unsettled in the depth of her feelings for Zach. The spoiler writers love to exaggerate what happens on screen. So all this means is that she is a little touched by how much she cares about him. This is all a continuation of Reese not knowing if it's okay to feel close to a man(platonically) and have emotional feelings for him. 

 

Reese is a little sheltered and the woman was in the closet almost her whole life so she is just trying to find her way.

 

 

 

ljr's picture

Hmm

I may be linched for this but i'm not a big Breese fan, and I don't think they should be getting married-at least not any time soon. They have some chemistry-but so what, that doesn't mean your relationship works. And I don't like the fact that most of Reese's screentime has been with Zach, Bianca has been reduced to a bit player in her own storyline.

Bianca doesn't 100% trust Reese no matter what she now claims, and you don't get over those insecurities in one day and then everything is perfect, relationships don't work like that, soap or not.

I do believe Reese really is gay but I don't think that means she's perfect for Bianca. I love that a soap is again having a lesbian wedding (this time a legal one), but I don't really think they are right for eachother, and I think AMC may have the first gay divorce on soap in the future.

We shouldn't keep accepting the bones we get thrown just because it's a lesbian relationship, we deserve more than a very short-term storyline which consists of the couple having no buildup and has most of the viewers questioning if one of the girls really wants a guy. People on the soap boards are still convinced Reese really wants Zach and not Bianca, that is very sad and not what we were promised by AMC. I for one would have prefered one of Bianca's exes (Maggie or Lena) to be the other half of this couple, at least then we would be getting some storyline payoff, but right now this storyline doesn't do much for me.

SterlingMB's picture

Crmbs

Hey LJR,

I totally hear you about being stuck with the bones they throw us...heck I don't even watch daytime TV, but it's just so nice to see a small reflection of my world on TV once in a while...

But given it is daytime they play by a different set of rules where stuff that should take weeks can be accomplished one scene (ie Reese and Bianca making up after Bianca's ridiculous testing scheme). So I'm willing to suspend my disbelief...

My main concern is their treatment of Reese and Zach - and after reading a few bits from credible sources I feel that whole bisexual/attraction issue is a moot point!

However, that said, it does disturb me just as much how AMC is making bisexuals out to look like experimental backstabbers; it was the case flat out with Maggie and it's been heavily insinuated with Reese!

Alright then - let the week begin - here come the fireworks!

IrAb1's picture

Reese and Bianca

I think the whole point is to make it look like Reese look shady. That's why the writer has brought up Bianca's past with Sarah and is doing a parallel with her and Reese. But in the end it will be Reese being the real deal. And it's being done to create tension between Bianca and Reese. It will be over soonuntil they meet the next obstacle which is Kendall.

Who cares what those idiots think on the soap boards? The writers sure don't.

I do think Bianca and Reese belong together. When you see them interact with one another it is just right. They are getting married they just have to make it through the craziness that is Pine Valley life.

ljr's picture

I never thought there was

I never thought there was anything between Zach and Reese but friendship, but I still think it's pathetic that Reese spends more time up Zach's butt than with her fiancee, and actually that isn't the reason i'm not a fan of this couple. 

I'm sorry but I don't believe for a second Breese belong together, some chemistry doesn't mean your soul mates, they have too many problems and seem to know nothing about eachother. Bianca doesn't even really trust Bianca no matter what she now says. You don't have a baby with and marry somene you've known a matter of months and that you know nothing about-it's badly written and unbelievable. I think it's great that Bianca is finally allowed a relationship where she actually gets to kiss her GF, but the rest of it is contrived and centered around a guy, that is not what we were promised by AMC and we should expect alot more.

The character of Bianca deserves her own love story not one tacked on to Zach's storyline. As for the 'idiots' on soap boards that includes gay and bisexual viewers who are also unsure of Reese's real sexuality (not including me, I always thought she was gay), soap magazines and all the soap sites have questioned if she is into Zach. That is NOT a good basis for a gay marriage and sends out the wrong message. And their interaction may have some sweet moments but it also has alot of arguments and accusations-yes that's a healthy relationship *rolls eyes*. We should demand better representation than this, because by accepting this we are allowing ABC to screw us over-again!! 

Unless AMC is cancelled soon, I don't think Breese will stay married, the producers themselves even admitted that Reese is only on the show as Bianca's love interest because Liz Hendrickson was unavailable, and they didn't think recasting Maggie would go down well with fans. They wanted to have a gay marriage on daytime and Tamara Braun is a friend of Pratt's, so he found her a role on the show as Reese. I wish that this was a real attempt by AMC to finally give Bianca a good romance, but I don't think it is.

SterlingMB's picture

Enough Already!

Ok - so I get the writers need to create some drama and doubt the get ratings...but this whole Reese and Zach thing platonic as it may be is just getting to me.

I mean if I was engaged to the love of my life would I be hanging out with my brother in law all day (ok - I know they work together - but we've all noticed the casino is finished) so let's get back on with watching the wedding plans. Heck there is plenty of drama involved in planning a wedding. Plus with two brides involved there's double the tension never mind the presence of one Erica Kane in the mix...

OK - rant over...just missing the scenes we were getting a month ago and before...anybody with me?

Pyewacket's picture

I am with you!

I am certainly missing the Bianca and Reese scenes.  I hate that we see them apart more than we see them together.

I guess the drama that comes between couples is easier to write (especially when they need a way to keep a certain actor and character frontburner) then to write drama that the couple have to face and deal with together.

Spoilers make things out to be worse than they are.

It is interesting that I have read spoilers for AMC for years and it isn't until this storyline of sorts between Reese and Zach that spoilers are suddenly making things out to be worse than how they actually palyout.

Anyone else notice that?

Today two spoilers came to be and I saw nothing dire regarding Bianca and Reese's relationship...and nothing sexual about the crossing of paths between Zach and Reese.

I know there is yet another spoiler regarding Zach and Reese to happen...but I am suspecting it will not playout as it has been portrayed in the spoiler, itself.

 

SterlingMB's picture

Hoping!!

Well - I've always lived in a 'prove it to me' kinda mindset...so until I see the Zach/Reese romantic stuff I will continue to rest firmly in the Binx and Reese universe. Tamara Braun has said several times in various interviews and the like that Reese is firmly a lesbian and has nothing more than deep platonic feelings for Zach. Also given Eden Riegel's history I don't think this is a storyline she would endorse either...

I think this is ABC's (them again) way of generating hype...

Sadly they don't recognize that this back-pedals greatly on the progress they had made with this storyline.

Anyways Pye thanks for keeping the candle burning...

Ok - enough outta me for now.

I suspect it won't play out

I suspect it won't play out how these "spoilers" are making them out to happen. So far we've gotten tons of spoilers that don't play out any where near how they actually happen on screen. What is up with that? I was getting all upset over the spoilers and thinking "dude! they're totally making it about a man in this *ground breaking* story" but after today I'm seeing more positive (though I'm still not a fan of the whole insinuation of Reese and Zach...but as long as it's just this play to get people upset but not what the story actually is). We got to see Bianca and Reese interact more without the whole "Zach" thing. I can't wait for Kendall to wake up and our girls to move on out of the Slater house. And how cute was Miranda today? I say more of Bianca and Reese! More of Miranda (agian, so adorable today...holding both Bianca and Reese's hands awww)

The Countdown!

Ok - the the big towel dropping scene was a total bust (pardon the pun) - at least it was to me. Reese seemed genuinely cringy about the whole thing. I didn't pick up even the slightest bit of sexual tension...

So moving on to tomorrow's 'confession'...who's betting that we'll get an admission of extremely sincere and platonic emotional attraction!

I'm also eager to see Zach rip Reese's mom a new one...although truthfully I'd rather see Erica do it.

Pyewacket's picture

I would rather Opal then Zach!

Anyone other then Zach would be the right one to stand up to Reese's mother.

Erica, Opal, Greenlee (though she will have her own problems lol)...Bianca would be an excellent choice to stand up for her woman.

And not only is the confession coming up...there is yet another sensational spoiler out there!  I think it might be for next week...but enough with these misleading spoilers.  lol

Though I guess I would rather the spoilers not pan out as they are described.

 

Alisha's picture

I know. I wish it were

I know. I wish it were anyone else but Zach.  

I'm not worried about the spoilers anymore. I don't believe them. They've proven to be total exaggerations thus far.  The new ones sound so absured. I'm not going to get my panties in a wad over them. I'll just sit back and watch what really happens.

The Dresses

I have to agree with everyone else aobut the dresses...OMG what was the designer thinking? Did "they" know that those 2 dresses were going to be TOGETHER?????? Cuase if they did...i'd say Binx & Reese need to go to a DIFFERENT designer. lol

BTW....WHATS up with the fact that Reese's dress wasnt white????????????

Busy CDBC's picture

computer issues

damn computer lol
SterlingMB's picture

Knees?

The stupidest part was Reese's cocktail length dress...she looked as though she was going to her high school prom/grad not her very own wedding. It was pretty ludicrous...but it will certainly make the real thing feel so much better.

As for the spoiler crap...that's all it is is crap.

Pyewacket's picture

The Claire, Reese and Zach scenes.

Well, the spoiler said that Reese's mother was going to ask Reese if she was bisexual and then Reese would wonder that (if she is bisexual) aloud to Zach after her mother left.

Neither of those happened.

Reese was supposed to tell Zach about her feelings for him...and what I heard was questions...and not fully completed thoughts.

Then Reese asked him what he thought and felt when he looked at her.  Did she mean attraction or something else?

The funny thing is...it was Zach who brought up feeling impulses and not acting upon them.  Not Reese.  Zach.  Zach who got flustered when Reese accidently fell against him and Zach who nuzzled against Reese on New Year's Eve.

So I suspect that Reese is basically having the kind of relationship she used to have with her dad...but it is with Zach...it is a hero-worship kind of thing.  But because it is not her dad...she is wondering what it is all about.

But even the scene between Reese and Zach was not as bad as the spoilers made it out to be.

 

SterlingMB's picture

A Conspiracy

They must really be trying to hedge their bets down there at ABC. I am starting to believe they are leaking anti-lesbian Reese spoilers outta sheer fear of the phobic-heterobacklash. If only they know just how terribly stupid this makes them seem...

Tamara Braun has gone on record that Reese only has eyes for Bianca...that she is deeply and completely commited to Bianca...

I've said it before and I'll say it again...I'm holding my breath until the 16th!!!

Pyewacket's picture

Sensationalism.

I think they are trying to maximize sensationalism with the spoilers...to get people to tune in.

Unfortunately I am seeing a lot of gay woman getting upset because of the spoilers at many soap boards.

I have seen posts accusing Eden and Tamara of being liars and saying how the storyline is being ruined.

But I think the lines are blurring for them between spoilers and what is actually happening on the show and they are not doing themselves any favors by reading the spoilers if their panties are getting in that much of a bunch, to quote one of our fellow posters here.  lol

 

Alisha's picture

LOL

It's true. I see so many people getting so upset over this whole thing and to me it's like, if they didn't read the spoilers then they probably would be viewing this story completely different. The spoilers have proven to be wrong and yet people are still getting upset over the ones that are out there now.

I just haven't seen anything to say that Reese is having sexual confusion for Zach. I think she's confused but not sexually. The way I see it, all Reese has done is proclaim and defend her lesbianism. She's stated over and over again that Bianca is the love of her life. She's admitted that she keeps things from Bianca because she's wants to protect her and them. She's afraid of losing her...et cetera.

Do I wish they would do this whole Zach thing differently so that it's not so confusing to people? Sure. But it's a soap opera. You have to have angst somewhere. I don't think they're going to take it *there* with the whole Zach thing. If they do...well it is THEN that I would get upset.

It seems like people are plagued with pessimism. Where's the optimism?

Also, I think it's awful for anyone to be saying anything negative about Eden and Tamara. I think they're fantastic.

I agree.

Ultimately I think in that conversation between Reese and Zach, they were talking about two different things.

I think Reese was talking about feelings...and Zach was talking about something else...impulses one should control...which is what Zach has been dealing with regarding Reese...but I don't see it the other way around for her.

As I don't think her saying to her mother that she is a lesbian  and was so far in the closest that she did not even realize it was all just talk on Reese's part in reaction to her mother.

Both Reese and Bianca have been in vulnerable places since they came to town...and one would be hesitant to go to your partner when you are trying to deal with your vulnerability while not trying to set her off at the same time.

I am not saying it is right...but it is understandable.
