I'd say maybe it is too obvious except...there is a spoiler out that says Annie gets "nervous" when she hears Madden's name. Which is even more obvious but probably where they are going with this....Annie got Kate / Emma from Madden. Big surprise there.

You're probably right, Trixie. Kate will turn up as a teenager full of anger and hot to trot. Won't that be a welcome change from all the other kid-everyone-has-forgotten-about-but-suddenly-returns-to-town storylines. Enough already with the kind, well-adjusted, chaste teenagers. ;D

trixie - the writers aren't that creative!!!! well that would work if tad took the role of daddy and annie continued to raise her because dixie did sign away rights. dixie gave her up. therefor i cannot feel sorry for her. madden didn't brain wash her. she thought she was dying and instead of picking up the phone and calling tad she signs the adoption papers. like dixie or not - she gave up kate. and tad didn't. tad has full rights of kate. dixie doesn't - annie didn't know any of this (as far as we know) so annie should be able to continue to be her mom - wheter she lives with tad or annie. hell - they will probably hook up!!!!!!

even using the excuse 'tad didn't want kate" (total bs) Dix could have called Palmer or David who would have both been there in a heartbeat to help her. Because of Dixie we had to suffer through doctor in a box I hope Dixie never gets Kate. She doesn't deserve her

I`m confused about the character of annie , I don`t see how she can remain on the canvas if her daughter ( the thinly disguised Kate ) is going to go back to Dixie . But I don`t see them killing her off since i think she`s on contract . How do you think they will resolve it ? No answers involving a long term relationship with Ryan please . Fingers are firmly in the ears on that one!

There will be some long court battle a la Little Adam, and then Annie will suddenly bow out graciously because she sees how wonderful Dixie and Tad are. Or something. And then she'll be the new available woman who needs someone to make her feel better now that she lost her daughter.

no one would buy a mother who loves her child will bow out. they would fight tooth and nails. i hold with the fact that dixie fu**ed up and signed her rights away. basicly too bad and sucks for her (whether you like her or not) but tad didn't so he is new daddy and annie (same thing - whether you like her or not) will stay mommy. UNLESS annie bought her or got her illegally then kate will go to tad and tad will decide who and if either should be part of her life.

That's what they did with Kelly and Kevin Buchannen. Why not here?
Annie will fight for a while, realize she can't win, and sadly say goodbye...and "wonderful" Dixie will invite her to see Kate as often as she wishes, or something like that.
Or Annie will leave the show. LOL. they can release an an actor every 13 weeks...her signing a contract means nothing.
there's no way that kid is staying with Annie in the end.

you think??? hmmmm - i'm pondering!!!!!! i guess to me it depends how annie got her. if it was legal or not. kelly kidnapped the baby so what could she do. she had paul kidnap a kid so she didn't have to tell kevin (which makes noooo sense when she pulled that one but i guess she kinda got payback being found naked in a rectory with duke!!)
i wonder only because if it was a legal adoption the baby cannot be offically adopted for so many days giving the mother a chance to change her mind and then it's a solid deal. i think this storyline would just get nuts.....
since i'm not warming up to annie i would hope since madden's involved it was somehow illegal and annie knew that so after 13 weeks (wait - 12 now she already did a week!!) would run for the hills and we won't see her again!!!!!!! ;D

well since she's supposed to get "nervous" about hearing Madden's name...I'm guessing either she knows she didn't get Kate legally, or she never told Terry that Kate was adopted. (how he couldn't know, I'm not sure but anyway)
But IMO there is no way they would leave the child of a (former?) supercouple like Tad/Dixie with a newbie character like Annie. She's new, she's unconnected to the canvas, she has no real fanbase yet and it's not like Tad and Dixie would be bad parents (as in abusive) so there's no other reason to leave Kate with her.
And I think the adoption is illegal regardless, Tad never signed his rights away.

i agree that the adoption is illegal since tad didn't sign. and i'm sure the writers could stretch it to say that the child belongs to our supercouple. i guess we have to watch and see how they pull it off. since i haven't warmed up to annie i want to believe on her part she obtainded kate illegally.

There are ways to legally get a father's rights taken away without having him sign them away.. and Dicie and Tad were not married at the time which makes it even easier... and all that aside tptb are the ones who decide what is 'legal' anyway.... But I agree, if Annie's Emma=Kate then Annie is a temp character and Emma/Kate will go to Tad and Dixie within the year.

I think they should have aged Kate more actually, because it would be a really fascinating story to see Tad and Dixie trying to bond with this little girl who is aobut 8 years old and just won't accept them as her parents, because that's not who she knows. It would have worked anyway since they aged JR and now it makes no sense that Dixie was only away for four years. LOL. When she left he was like 15 and she came back and he's...what, 24? Then all the criticism that she 'abandonned' him would make more sense.
I mean realistically speaking...Kate won't remember much of this later on anyway. You don't retain a heck of a lot of your memories from before age 3-4.
then again the idea that Dixie was searching for Kate for 8 years and never finding her is a bit much. LOL.

I think it would be cool if they had Kate totally connect with Tad but not want much to do with Dixie.
