• "Sitting Congresswoman" You Know Who

    Congresswoman Willow P Tait has the brain of a planarian flatworm. Days
    after Sidwell disappeared it finally dawned on the little ninny that her
    supply of stroke jabs had been cut off. Which begs the question of why
    she would drag him up to the hospital for an appointment, when at any
    minute he could recover from his "stroke."

    And why have Felicia tell Willow she had applied for access to
    communications devices for the locked-in on Drew's behalf, then in the
    next breath tell her that it could take quite a long while for approval
    to come through? If that was meant to show Willow in a flop sweat, too
    late. She's been in a flop sweat since she started playing whack-a-mole
    trying to keep her drugging scheme contained. So, I refuse to get worked
    up over communications devices until Liz or Felicia show up with them at
    Drew's door and he starts spelling SOS instead of blinking it.

    As for Willow pitching herself into the lake and claiming Tracy had
    pushed her, Willow and Chase were both squawking about Tracy having
    assaulted a "sitting congresswoman," the implication being that Tracy
    should be charged for that crime (which carries a greater penalty)
    rather than for assault of a member of the general public. Willow: "She attacked ME, a sitting congresswoman!" Chase: She attacked a sitting congresswoman!" Sitting congresswoman, my patootie. The only place that
    fake congresswoman should be sitting is on a jail bunk.

    It was really quite rich for BLQ to accuse Tracy of entrapping Willow
    for behavior she's done in the past when BLQ is actively plotting to
    frame Willow something she hadn't done. If you ask me, framing someone
    for something they hadn't done seems sorta worse than entrapping them
    into repeating something that they had. Not sure why BLQ felt the need
    to argue a false point with Tracy in the first place. Why not just tell
    Tracy what she was planning to do? Knowing Tracy, she would have been
    all in.

    At least Willow did not make up another nonsense excuse as to why she's
    not willing to have Drew be able to communicate better. It seems odd
    that having eye-blinked SOS not one of the characters has pushed harder
    for Drew to start using a letter board or something similar. Especially
    given the generally overly intrusive personalities of the main
    characters. Wasn't Felicia one of the people he blinked at?

    The implication that it's somehow a worse offense because Willow is a
    member of Congress seems like a stretch. It's not as if Tracy and Willow
    were arguing *because* Willow is in Congress. It's purely personal. And
    you are so right! Willow certainly does not seem to spend any time
    actually in Congress, sitting or not.

    Agreed. Tracy probably would praise Brook Lyn for her clever plan. Not
    that I see it actually working. Even if the PC Police run with the
    flimsy evidence against Willow, which is probable, won't that just super-charge Chase's savior complex regarding Willow? Especially as she tearfully professes her innocence to Chase? I see this plan backfiring.

    What a great point! Of course Chase would rush to Willow's defense. And
    no doubt he would succeed in proving her innocent because no crime was committed other than by Jordan, whose distracted driving caused the
    incident. There's no way of proving that the driver of the oncoming car
    saw Jordan run off the road and crash. The only person making a huge
    deal of it is Curtis, for the sole purpose of sticking it to Isaiah.

    If the writers wanted to have someone falsely accused of a crime, you'd
    think they would have come up with an actual crime with real evidence
    that could be presented at trial. Instead, the person who caused the
    accident and her passenger are the only ones squawking about being "left
    to die," and those two really don't know and can't prove that that's
    true.

    As for Jordan, you would think she would be at least a little hesitant
    to back up Curtis's spurious accusations against Isaiah. After all, if
    it hadn't been for Isaiah, Curtis might not have given up on Portia so
    hastily, and Jordan wouldn't have "won" him back. Of course, it won't be
    long before he dumps her yet again for failing to inform him of
    something that's totally none of his business.
