What's the point? She has no family on the show at all

They consider Paul as still being on the show, he was on the phone with Daniel when Heather died and couldn't make the funeral. 😅

Can't wait to see more scenes of a psycho plotting in that one hotel room!

And guess what -at some point Patty will hold some characters hostage!!

All of the cast will be summoned to some luxurious yacht docked in Monaco that is surprise surprise is owned by Patty. Afterwards Patty sails the yacht from Monaco to Genoa City.

Even though she is NOT my Kristen Dimera, I do love Stacy Haiduk. I have since the days of KINDRED THE EMBRACED and SUPERBOY. And I know I'm in the minority, but I loved the Mary Jane storyline...and still remember the promo of Patty stepping to Victor with that deep 'And if I DON'T, Victor?' I was just sorry she went too crazy, but it had a good start and air of mystery. I was also happy they tried to keep Stacy by giving Jack a relationship with Emily.

That said...clearly, Jack and Diane need some different, new drama and JG does love to write for the Abbotts. But what is that 4 or 5 psychos within the span of a year and a half?

Yeeeeah NO.

And ANOTHER thing. I mean, there's really no one other than Jack and Victor on the canvas that is really connected to her.

I thought she was fascinating as Patty the first time, and the show made the mistake of taking her too far and writing the character into a corner. I had wished they had stopped short of that and found a way to keep her. That being said, I don't trust this show to do anything right these days.
