I don't like the way everyone was treating Rocco.
How dare they look down their noses at him? Let's
take a look at who he was surrounded by, shall we?
First there's Katherine, all high and mighty, the
drunk who stole a baby and drove her husband off a
cliff. Then there's Jill, a woman who stole her
mother's husband and had his baby and then went on
to marry a man whose son she slept with. Cane, who
has been tricked by not one but two women into
marrying him for his money and still pines for the
child-like Lily - and don't even get me started on
Lily. The girl has been married, divorced, dated a
child predator, traveled the world and still acts
like she's 12.
How dare they sit there and judge a man solely on
his appearance? He was the only one decent enough to
get up and get a tissue for Chloe when she was
crying. Granted it was fake crying, but still. Being
naive isn't a crime in Genoa City or else everyone
would be in jail. If you ask me, Rocco is the lone
voice of reason in this insane town and should be
elected mayor.
None of those people can even do math. Chloe said
she felt the baby kick, but seeing as she's still
wearing her skinny jeans and a belt it's obvious the
baby doesn't even have legs yet let alone a foot
with which to kick. And you'd think Katherine, Jill
and Lily who have been pregnant a half dozen times
collectively would know such a thing, but no. They
sat there and teared up at the thought of another
precious new baby like they're all parents of the
year. What colossal gall. I shudder to think what's
in store for this baby in a family like that.
So Karen has apparently added a new credit to her
resume: self defense instructor for women. Let's see
if I can keep track. First she was a public
relations expert, then she was a campaign manager,
then she ran a cosmetics division in a big
corporation, and somewhere in there she also was a
jazz club singer. Doctor, lawyer and Indian Chief
are about all that's left for this woman.
Still, she remains the only semi-sane one where
Newman Enterprises in concerned. On some level,
though she eventually dismissed it, she seemed the
only one aware that Victor's absence from the
company was to be surely short lived. She may have
been ultimately overcome by her desire for Neil but
her initial sensibility is far more than can be
claimed by anyone else involved. You know who would
be perfect for her? Rocco.
Daniel seems to be on a path to rival Karen for
being Jack of all trades. But I'm not sure quite
what to make of his latest foray into "art." After
catching a glimpse of a drawing he made of Colleen
that can only be described as a cartoon, I was taken
aback as the camera panned over to Colleen proper
only to realize the real Colleen looked even more
like a cartoon than the drawing Daniel had made of
her. Perhaps he is the next DaVinci after all.
Well, OK, not DaVinci. In fact, not even Warhol. I
can't imagine any gallery in New York, no matter how
small, setting up a show for pencil sketches drawn
by some no-name kid from Wisconsin. I mean, there
were rough drafts of fruit bowls hanging on that
wall. It's the kind of thing you'd expect to see in
a beginner's art class. I'm surprised there weren't
paint by numbers up there. Who would buy these
things? They can't possibly be worth anything.
