[QUOTE="Willie Oleson, post: 160664, member: 8"] And she did it to help him, but there's a big difference between prostitution and the spite & revenge sex that happened in the early seasons. Because that's the kind of adultery that most soap characters understand. If Pilar is capable of adultery without feeling the kick or pleasure, then what does that say about her relationship with Lance. I guess it creates a different kind of insecurity because there's no competition. Ned Vogel is not a threat. And I'm not sure we had seen this before i.e. calculated prostitution by one of the romantic leads. I found it quite shocking (in a good way, of course) and it makes sense that Lance (the former Mr. Soap Slut) struggles to deal with it. I'm trying to think of an equally shocking adultery storyline...maybe Gary and Judy Trent, she was also not a serious threat. I don't remember exactly what it was all about, maybe to prove himself that he was indeed that weak person, sometimes it's more comfortable to hide behind your weaknesses (real or not). [/QUOTE]
