Hi guys, I dropped out for two weeks, it was nice.  Any who, just catching up.    For the other posters, Jason left 5 million in a trust for Liz to use for Jake and Cam, and he bought her house because she did not own it, she was renting it.  It is on You Tube.   He told her it was clean and under Emily's name.   

Now I just caught some recent yt clips.  It seems that the investment thing is just a way for Liz to make yet another mistake.   Most likely a plot point for her to need Nic in her life.  Liz's story, while I do like the theories, really have nothing on screen to do with Jason.  They have shown nothing in her actions that denote her need to remove him from her life.  She has removed him from her life.   The writers have him mentioned so the audience knows that she was involved with him and that Jake was his son.  (Soaps often repeat themselves in the wild occurrence that they might have a new viewer, funny in itself.)

But this sub story does not play well.  Liz could use the money for Cam and Jake at any time.  Per Diane, Jason will provide any money she wants.  She told Diane that Jason had given her enough.  Scene on You Tube.  She was not ugly about it at all.  Because she had her "I only Love Lucky" t-shirt on.  

I don't like it, but the writers are making Liz look very poor from a mothering standpoint.  They had her leave Jake in the hospital to be with Nic, they are now having her use "Emily's" trust fund for a risky investment. She has already had a break down over Lucky and sent to SBrooke, she got in trouble at work and had to take time off.   You have her brother and her ex-husband commenting on her parenting, etc.  Nic commenting on how he thinks his child will not get the attention he/she needs (because he is sooooooo hands on with Spencer.)   

Either the writers are tossing Liz under the bus or they are setting things up to 1- need to live with Nic or 2 - a custody battle with Lucky.    Or - let's add 3 - they will drop this whole story line when she returns from ml.

Is Liason dead, no couple is ever dead.  But I can not see connecting them unless Jake is involved in the fall.

Regarding Jasam, I stopped watching only a couple of weeks ago, so unless someone has a feed I did not, there really is no Jasam story, nor has there been on and the actress is rarely ever on scene, she is not a part of the Franco story either. Only on DD are there big fans.   Add Brenda (VM) coming back and she may be on less.   Granted she is out there doing stuff now, but that is a mgt/marketing thing done by the actors not the soap.  Sbu does these things to keep himself out there and to make money.   Some actors never do these things, does not make them less popular.  Image how excited fans would be to have TG or MO or the Q's at a fan event.    

Well that's it.   I just came on to say hi and I did watch some clips, old habits die hard. 

Side rant - This story line bothers me as much as when Liz was going to give her child to Jax and Courtney for Lucky.  Her eggs, not Courtney's, she was the carrier and the donor.   All in the name of Lucky.  I mean could she not have turned to family for cash, I always thought that was a bit extreme.   And, I am not judging anyone for being a surrogate (??), it is a wonderful act of compassion, but it would have been her biological child, once again all for Lucky.   Can the writers not give this character a break?   Must she give her soul to Lucky?
