[QUOTE="Daniel Avery, post: 320344, member: 27"] I've been wondering for some time now: everyone in town has him on speed-dial to do their bidding. Does he send them a bill? 'Cause I would not be doing all that stuff for free. I remember reading something that explained (weakly) that when Novak and Buschema got blown up in that limo, Sonny and Ms. Wu divided up those"territories" between them. There had been a (weak) plan to introduce Joey Novak as a temporary enemy out for revenge but I think all the backstage upheaval and rewrites with Burton leaving made them drop that plotline (as well as the borderline comic performance of the actor playing Joey) . It is unrealistic that the mob wars would just cease when so many organizations seem not to have any leadership--only Ms. Wu seems to be [I]going to the office[/I] every day. Even if they want us to think that Ms. Wu is quietly collecting more and more territory/power, they ought to at least mention it in passing. I read a really, really intriguing spoiler/speculation thread someplace about her that I hope comes true. it said that when she moves into Alexis's house, she exhibits knowledge of the layout of the house that she ought not have, since Alexis has never invited her over. We find out that Harmony has been there before--she was the one who killed Neil, Alexis's boyfriend who "died of an overdose" in the bed next to her a few years back. Neil was the one who 'de-programmed' Kristina from the Dawn of Day cult, and Shiloh sent Harmony to the house to kill Neil by injecting him with drugs. If this is true, it makes the whole "Willow is Nina's real daughter" secret pale in comparison. I feel pretty much the same about Victor: a villain with a root-able factor, like old-school Liesl Obrecht. No wonder those two work so well together. He's just so darn [I]smooth[/I]. But I think Victor's got a lot more going on than he lets on. Port Charles's recent "heat wave" and his henchman's comments about the "harbor being the wrong temperature" tell me VC's tinkering with Mikkos's old weather machine. His henchmen keep referring to "the cause" in passing, which leads me to think Victor has convinced his underlings that he intends to use the weather machine to improve the planet---not so much "curing climate change" as much as solving world hunger or helping end weather disasters, stuff that gullible people might think he wants to solve. His real intention is of course something akin to world domination, like picking and choosing which groups have terrible weather and which get all the sunshine and bountiful crops. He started off so well, but his chief plot function now seems to be going from place to place and listening to every other character's problems. He should set up one of those stands like the Peanuts character, "Psychiatric Help, 5 Cents". Only he doesn't need the nickel. At some point I just want him to get tired of listening to Carly's whining about her marriage and yell "Oh, remember me? Locked up and tortured for two years? Mind controlled? Thanks for asking how [B]I'm[/B] doing." I'm leaning toward naming him [I]Replason[/I]. [/QUOTE]
