Smarten Up!

Why are the woman of Oakdale so desperate and delusional? Am I honestly supposed to believe that a sophisticated woman like Barbara Ryan would fall to pieces over being given the short end of the stick by Henry? Come on. She would snap him like a twig, use his leg as a toothpick, and not bat an eye. Get it together, Barbara. You're better than this!

While Henry is still fresh in our minds, let's talk about his mother, Audrey. As much as I love portrayer Lynn Herring, this character needs to go. Hairbrain schemes and ridiculous plots are fine, if not somewhat expected at times. However, when you continuously put yourself in unbelievable, compromising situations, I just don't care. Henry, Vienna, Audrey, and Maddie need to leave town and never look back.

I feel so bad for Liberty. The poor girl makes one careless mistake and isn't allowed to rectify it as she sees fit. It would be nice if all the people pulling her fifty different ways would wake up and realize that all this stress isn't good for mother or child. Let her live her life. I have the utmost confidence that she'll make the right decision when the time comes. Making life altering ones under duress is a recipe for disaster.
