That's somehow worse.

Maggie was walking around with a check for one million dollars?

But, also, didn't she say she was hanging out there until Philip packs up and moves out?  Side note: Where's the staff to pack up Philip's belongings?

No, she said she wanted Phillip to be gone when she got back.

I doubt Maggie's staff wants to help Phillip at this point.

I don't really know how million dollar donations work, but I don't think writing a check is that weird?  Maybe I am old school like Maggie too? lol

@carolineg I thought this called for ”thorough research” aka I asked AI

Based on the analysis, it is clear that a bank in Salem would allow someone to write a check for one million dollars, provided they have sufficient funds in their account. There is no legal or regulatory barrier to doing so, and banks typically permit personal checks for any amount, aligning with national practices. However, for such a large transaction, banks are likely to recommend wire transfers or cashier's checks due to their speed, security, and reduced risk of fraud. They do not “make” someone use a wire transfer, as the choice remains with the account holder, though practical and recipient preferences may influence the decision.
 
AKA - Would you hand a million dollar check to Sarah Horton or Kayla Brady?  I wouldn't trust those doctors with my debit card.

Oh, I was assuming it was either a check via her trust from Victor or a cashier's check.  Not Maggie Horton's personal check lol.   Honestly up until I bought my house a couple of years ago I paid rent with a personal check because they charged me when I used my debit card lol.   Anyhow, just a reasonable excuse for Maggie to go talk to Julie at the hospital.  

I don't use checks often, but I still have them just in case.  I recently got my passport renewed and you can buy a money order or write a check so the government still allows it lol.

@Liberty City 

And it’s a shame that kids today — like Tate — can have a child, yet never know the simple pleasure of opening their first box of personalized che(ques), complete with a custom design if you were feeling especially fancy.

Also — side note — it is rather amusing to imagine a Victor Kiriakis Charitable Trust. It would be like having a Pablo Escobar Charitable Trust. I always assumed they used the name Titan because Victor’s marketing team wisely advised him to avoid associating anything public-facing with the Kiriakis name, given its unpleasant connections to drugs and kidnapping schemes. Which is why I wouldn’t blame Maggie if she still preferred to be known as Maggie Horton.

I don't think a Victor Kiriakis Charitable Trust is as bad as the Sonny Corinthos Stone Cates Charitable Trust that funds most of Port Charles lol

I totally had a mind lapse when I said Maggie Horton.  That's just what I think of her as.  She definitely uses Kiriakis as a last name.

How did EJ end up with the memory card? I kind of wish Johnny were the killer so he could go to jail and come back recast like Gabi.

Carson Boatman is an awful actor.

    • Kelly looks so good in today’s episode (taped mid-March). I’ve always maintained Kelly looks fab in blue, and when they keep her hair straight like this. When they curl her hair, I feel it doesn’t suit her beautiful face.

    • Thank you @BoldKara. I hadn’t realised it’s only a few months away with the current YouTube uploads. I’m happy to wait until then - hopefully they won’t skip the episode this time around. 
    • Am I the only one welcoming the preemptions because I've been mad busy and have to catch up on over a week of episodes? Just saying.

    • No. Agnes Nixon had worked on a number of shows before creating OLTL (and AMC, which she had in her drawer waiting to come to life). AW was only one of them. Many classic soaps have personnel coming across back and forth all over the map, it's not a unique situation. And to my knowledge very few of the head creative teams at AW came to OLTL. If you're thinking of Harding Lemay, he did only a very brief consulting stint in '98 and maybe '99, and clearly had little actual impact on the writing. Paul Rauch was also a different EP at AW than he was at OLTL, GL, Santa Barbara, Y&R, etc. Nor do I recall him bringing many writers with him. Nor did his work at those shows resemble his time with Lemay at AW AFAIC. Frankly '70s Rauch and '80s Rauch seem like night and day. Beyond Rauch, the only two examples of key AW additions I know of would be first when George Reinholt and Jacquie Courtney jumped from AW to OLTL in the '70s. They were debatably the first daytime supercouple (some might cite Penny and Jeff from ATWT), and the show attempted to recreate that with new characters at OLTL to garner ratings. This was not unique to these shows; many soaps attempted the same trick after them. It might've worked but Reinholt's behavior once again drove him to quit and/or be fired. Robin Strasser was hired several years later as Dorian, but not opposite them in any triangle. Reinholt was long gone. JFP would be the other example and the only one who actively tried to model it after AW, bringing over several of her favorite actors from AW and several other shows she'd worked on in 1998-99. She was accused of trying to remake her AW at OLTL, but it was a poor fit because of their being very different. (She tried the same at GH.) I don't think OLTL was ever seen as 'just Another World' even remotely. It simply occasionally had AW stars coming aboard. And in the late '90s, they didn't fit. Jacquie Courtney and George Reinholt's characters fit in much easier, but Reinholt's in particular didn't last and Courtney's became quite different. OLTL and AW were dramatically different shows IMO, which is why JFP forcing actors from it onto the show didn't work or last.
