I agree. a second photoshoot would follow in line with the two clothing change events (The Mall and The Morning Breakfast the following day) and as you put it redundant. I would prefer L&P to move on to another event that is different and stop having repetitive scenes in different locations.
If L&P does do another photoshoot, then it needs to really be wildly different. Something much more pornagraphic and late into the corruption. It would need to involve more elements and/or characters, so something like a photosession where Sophia has sex with Sam while Dylan records/watches, under the guise of getting Liam's debt forgiven while Morello also claims that he needs to see if Sophia is "right" for some other task down the line. This way you're hitting on the elements of cheating, taboo sex, Dylan's cuckold fantasy, disrespecting Liam, getting in deeper with the mob, etc etc. It couldn't just be another fashion show, or simply be sex with Sam while Dylan records, it would need to be a massive event that would probably exist to showcase the magnitude of Sophia's corruption.
As far as we know the photoshoot was a one off and will not be repeated but other events are planned.
is nice to have good news
My guess is that Don will cancel a part of the debt (even a big chunk) and for the remaining part he will propose again some deal to Sophia ("only you can save your family..."). I expect that whatever he proposes will be in the same terms of the Larry's task, no nudity, no sex required, no "indecent proposals". But obviously as in Larry's case, it would be just words to soften the deal: in reality Sophia will be involved in more borderline activities. Something like hosting a VIP poker game at the casino where "officially" she just need to be a good hostess, bringing drinks to the VP guests, entertaining them etc. Then in reality, things can escalate rapidly with the guests flirting, making requests, involving her in some more daring activities (some level of nudity but not sex). Something in the line of the Larry's visit, where at first she is not really keen to do it but then she might even enjoying teasing the guests.And they could negotiate the term, repayment installments and special repayment installments / terms.
Morello occasionally makes Sophia the offer to work for him or to fulfill tasks. He makes it clear that the fulfillment of the tasks would be voluntary (no extortion!), since Sophia has already done her part of the debt settlement, and only the possibility would offer Liam's debts faster.
These tasks do not necessarily have to be of a sexual nature. Perhaps she needs someone skilled in martial arts to complete some of these tasks !? And Sophia could use the payment to reduce her debts or to become financially more independent from Liam.
But if I wrote the script it would definitely be one of the tasks. Namely the wish to get Larry's pictures of Sophia as an underwear model. And she already has an experienced photographer at home.
The cumare can be used to clear the debt and Morello will not(I think) go against his brothers wishes but the cumare is for something else.
When I hear Larry I always think of Larry Fine of the Three Stooges.
The Three Stooges ,now that is old school
What's your theory on how the Morello storyline will shake out?
The Morello storyline is not over as he still has a part to play but I do think that Larry has played his part.
They are coming back. I think it's just an updated day or two away. (I forget exactly when but it's relatively soon....in San Alejo time that is).
I love photoshoots. Studio sessions can run the full gamut from artistic posing to full-on rampant sex, not to forget the variety of outfits, or lack of the same. Way back, many pages ago, I bemoaned the fact that we'd had two Dylan centred 'photo' / fashion sessions but not one with an adult professional photographer. I came up with the idea of a mature seasoned snapper who'd covered disasters, wars, wildlife, world events, celebrities etc. Now in semi-retirement he did occasional work for Liam's company. Still attractive & with a thousand stories, plus the ability to talk a beautiful woman out of her clothes, the possibilities could have been endless.
So, this game is not for you. Sorry
