I agree that it would have been more interesting if the baby was Kush's. If the baby was Kush's, but she didn't want it, she would feel more conflicted about giving it up for adoption because she has feelings for Kush.”
Exacty! Especially given Kush's recent loss of Zaair, it would've been a very interesting point of conflict to between him, the young man who's recently lost a child and would be excited to have another one, and Denise, the middle-aged woman who's had her kids and is looking for something more out of life.
Why did they have to take it down the unispiring 'One Night Stand Daddy' route yet again? I really like Denise as a character and am dreading the possibility of her keeping the baby and spending the next 20 years playing tug-of-war with Phil over it.
