Agree except that her rationale makes sense to me. She's paying him
off to keep him from killing Sonny. The fact that he shot Michael in
the head is his proof that he'll do it. He has nothing to lose. She
does. She could lose Sonny. The fact that a lot of us would like to
see that happen doesn't matter. She's not paying him for blackmail;
she's paying him for extortion. It's really not that complicated. Do
this or I'll do that. Here's your proof. However, now that she's paid
the first time, she's open to being blackmailed. My respect for her,
which was way past waning already, is gone.

Well, they're definitely setting them up to finish them off,
then---Sonny's
gonna lose what little mind he has when he finds out---remember, he wants
everyone to do what he says and to disclose everything---that was a big
issue between Carly and Sonny---when he finds out she knew who shot Gummy
Mobster Jr---and not only KNEW but facilitated his escape out of town
while
paying blackmail? She's finished. She should have agreed to do what Dr.
Devil wanted, then tossed him to the wolves---aka Jason and Max. She could
have told him he had to be somewhere to pick up the cash and sent in the
"boys". It would have been over. Sonny safe, Sonny not mad---in fact very
happy with her. This? She's screwed. :))
