Storylines are hysterically illogical. However, as I am not a expert on soap opera structure, I have to conclude that for entertainment purposes, logic is no more relevant than today's pro wrestling programs.
Example #1:
If the pharmacy owner is confined indefinitely to the White House bunker; if Sharon is still incarcerated over Barry's death; if Dale, the only other employee of the pharmacy, unofficially resigned 2 seasons ago; how is the community getting it's medication?
Example #2:
Everyone knows to NEVER piss off people responsible for handling your food. How can Victoria assume pleasure in securing doubts in Priscilla's professionalism? Furthermore, why have a chef in the White House, when all you're having them prepare is tea and soup?
Example #3:
What black son from a strong household do you know that persists in disregarding repeated warnings of disrespecting his parents?
