When did Stella become Chief of Staff? Portia resigned as Terry's
co-chief when she was outed for tampering with Heather's lab results. So
where is Terry, and why isn't she making staffing decisions? Why would
Liz be involved in decisions about a doctor's employment status, and
where did she get the authority to bust Britt's chops for being late to
work?

Why would Anna be subconsciously obsessed with Britt? It can't be
because Britt is Faison's daughter, can it? Anna has known Britt is
Faison's daughter all along, so why would she only now be obsessed with
her? Either I missed something early in the story arc, or I've made the
mistake of trying to figure out the impossible: the motivations of
someone whose cheese has slipped off the cracker.

Why did Portia not suggest her baby be named Isaiah? If she had,
Curtis's head would have exploded and we would be done with him. Now
that he has a son, he will be even more insufferable than he was when he
found out that Trina was his child. Our only hope of being saved from
Curtis's overdosing on himself is the discovery that there had been a
mix up with the paternity test and that Isaiah is really the father.

Why did Maxie sell her Deception stock? She went to live in Australia,
not on the moon. And why the fake outrage from Tracy when Michael said
he would act in the company's best interest? Why would Tracy care what
Michael proposed for the company? Had he proposed some nutty scheme or something? If so, I missed it. Tracy has controlling interest, and can
put the kibosh on anything Michael tries to do either on his own or in
league with Lucy and Brook Lynn. So what's Tracy's problem?

I couldnrCOt figure out what Michael was driving at. I thought I also missed something

I couldnAt figure out what Michael was driving at. I thought I also missed something

All I heard him say was that his decisions for the company would be
based on what was best for it and not for the Qs. Maybe Tracy thought
that sounded like Michael didn't understand that the two interests were
one and the same. Or maybe she thought Michael should side with her and
BLQ against Lucy. But even so, Tracy owns the controlling interest in
the company and can outvote the other three if they were to band
together against her.

A question that I forgot to list: Why wouldn't Maxie have divided her
shares among each of her partners--why involve Michael at all?

BLQ could afford it. In fact, that would have allowed her to recoup her
stupid move ceding her shares to Lucy.

Lucy couldnrCOt afford it, I bet.

A sane Maxie probably wouldnrCOt have given or even sold anything to Lucy. I
am remembering all the times she tried to get Lucy to shut up when she was doing the home shopping shows. That, and her bad judgment joining forces
with Sonny and Sidwell.

Brook Lynn has to be the *dumbest* character ever in the history of GH.
Maybe there was someone dumber, but I'd have to think hard about it and
really tax my memory banks. The things BLQ has done in the aftermath of Jordan's wreck are beyond stupid.

Lucy couldnAt afford it, I bet.

Yes! Why would Maxie sell to Lucy when Lucy has done nothing but cause
trouble for the company? The only thing she can be counted on to do is
to act in her own interests.

am remembering all the times she tried to get Lucy to shut up when she was doing the home shopping shows. That, and her bad judgment joining forces with Sonny and Sidwell.

Lucy first came on the scene back in the mid 80s as a librarian, if you
can believe it--very timid, drab, and mousy. But even then she was a
schemer, and was always manipulating people to serve her ends. That
hasn't changed, but she has been rewritten over the years to be less
evil. Now she's an erratic mess. She still schemes, but goes about it impulsively rather than tactically, and ends up more often than not
getting herself into trouble.

This was the very brief period when I started watching it with the
secretary while the boss was away.

All I remember is the secretary shouting shut up Lucy and throwing a bottle
of wite-out at the small portable.

Chase is the second dumbest, after BLQ. His "Dudley Do-Right"
personality saves him from tying with her for dumbest. They definitely
the dumbest couple, bar none.
