Disgusting!

Baby Ellie is stillborn. Really? After months of plot contrivances and ridiculous storytelling, this is the payoff we get? What was the point of Angie's catastrophic choice between eyesight or child? All the fights, tears, anger, and compromise for nothing! As far as the random baby conveniently showing up in the back of Brot's cruiser, not really a problem. This being daytime drama and all, I'm use to suspending disbelief. I am however extremely angry that Jesse is lying to Angie. First off, he would never even consider the idea of lying about something so monumental. Secondly, him taking "the easy way out" by switching the babies without question is totally out of character.

We're supposed to believe that Jesse loves Angie more than anything? If that were true, how could he possibly deny her the chance to say goodbye? Despicable! Could it get any worse? Oh, yes! After the switch, Brot puts baby Ellie in the cardboard box originally occupied by the abandoned infant. When next we see the noble officer, he's standing over a freshly dug grave, leaning on a dirty shovel. No, I'm not kidding. Are we to believe that precious child was hastily buried in a cardboard box? In all my years of watching crazy, disrespectful storylines unfold, I have to say that this is the absolute worst! Whoever came up with this twist has no regard for human life, and should be fired. I've never seen anything so utterly repulsive. With stories like this getting greenlit, it's no wonder cancellation rumors continue to gain ground. Disgusting!
