I remember the clothes-folding incident vividly because it was so
ridiculously staged that I commented on it here! Not only was she
folding
clothes, but she was doing it all dressed up, standing in Michael's
bedroom!
And, of course, the only reason for that scene was so she and Jax would
see
or find something in Michael's room. (Can't remember now what it was)
I would LOVE to see Carly finally grow up and stop being so self-centered.
I remember years ago, they finally let Lucy Coe turn into a sympathetic
character...about the time Carly came on to be the resident "bad girl."
Now
that they have Maxie, Lulu or Claudia to take over this role they could
let
Carly metamorphose. This is a good time when every one is feeling
sympathetic for the poor mom with the child in a coma, and all of us with
children are empathizing with her to convert her. However, they've
started
down this path before, and she's reverted to character so I'm not holding
my
breath until I see signs of a permanent change.
