Why your support matters

by Todd Brown

How dumb are Phyllis and Nick? Don't bother to answer, that was a rhetorical question. I get that they wanted revenge on Jack for going behind their backs, but they cut their own noses off to spite their faces, as the saying goes. Like it or not, Jack and Sharon are their partners and it serves no purpose to sabotage their own business just to get even. It's like if they had to do an expose on Martha Stewart in Martha Stewart Living and trash her just to sell her own magazine. It doesn't make a whole lot of sense to alert readers and advertisers that the owner is scum.

How on earth did Chloe ever get a job as a "stylist?" That wedding dress and hat she was wearing made her look like she was appearing as a joke bride on Laugh-In circa 1969. And where does Cane get off acting like such a jackass about the whole thing? Who the hell was holding a gun to his head to go through with this insanity?

The fact that Chloe is really Esther's daughter Kate, however, goes a long way towards explaining the crazy behavior she's been exhibiting from the very start. At least now we have some inkling of why Chloe was so desperate to become a member of the Chancellor family. Still, if she wanted to be rich like her mother's employer, she had better alternatives than the ever-surly Cane. I hear Victor's available.

Why is Devon still living in Jack's house? If memory serves, Jack rented that place to Daniel and Lily - because of Daniel. Who no longer lives there. Nor does Lily. And didn't Devon just drop out of school to become a full time idiot - er - songwriter? How is he paying the rent? Does he still work part time at Newman? Not after this week he doesn't.

Goodbye Tyra, goodbye Ana. Don't come back, we won't miss you. It was enough that we had to suffer through an entire goodbye party dedicated to their brief existence. I cannot fathom why such an amount of time was devoted to these annoying characters nobody gives a damn about. Meanwhile Paul's girlfriend Maggie disappeared with nary a mention let alone a damn party.

Isn't Brad tired of ping-ponging back and forth between Newman Enterprises and Jabot Cosmetics? I know I'm tired of it. I'm no expert in the world of corporate affairs but from what I gather, at that level of the executive branch, contracts are signed and employees must fulfill agreed upon specific lengths of employment. By this time I can't imagine either company would hire Brad in the first place, let alone give him a contract that specifies he can jump ship and go back to work for the competitor whenever the hell he feels like it. Then again, considering the parade of morons running either company at any given time, who knows?

Victoria was back at Newman for what, a day? I fail to see how she managed to accumulate enough personal items in that day to need a box to pack up her stuff once she was fired again. I hope she doesn't bother to unpack it at home, though. Once Victor learns that Adam installed arch nemesis Brad Carlton as CEO, Adam's going to be the one packing up a box of his things. Maybe he can borrow Vicki's.
