Subject: I have never heard Gigi say that Sky would be a bad father; she just wanted to raise Sierra because she promised Stacy she would take care of her baby. All I see in Gigi at this point is sadness that she doesn't have Sierra, but I don't see any vindictiveness. Rex is out of control, but I can't have any sympathy for Sky either. (Can the guy just stand up and quit darting his eyes 'furtively' around the room???) Rex and Sky are both immature, hot headed louts. I do understand why Rex feels betrayed, but I think the writers are carrying the dialogue way too far. And Sky's sudden attachment to this baby is not believable to me either. I still think he sees her as a way to win Gigi back. There is enough guilt to go around here, and I know Sky is the fan favorite, but I don't see him as the victim, no way, no how.

Subject: Gigi has said that the only way to be sure that Sierra is all right is to raise her herself. That implies that she sees Schuyler as unfit. And Schuyler is being victimized over and over. First, Kim and Stacy tried to rape him, then they told him that they succeeded, and now everyone from Rex to Téa speaks of Schuyler sleeping with Stacy as if he was willing. Schuyler has received verbal and physical thrashings for not exposing Stacy's fraud soon enough, while we see Oliver cajoled by his supportive boyfriend to stop doing the same thing. Schuyler deserves punishment for stealing the oxytocin, but he doesn't deserve to have that unprofessional bully Greg publicly spilling the details of an internal investigation and declaring that he'll make his life hell. No one is acknowledging that by stealing the drug and showing it to Kim, Schuyler prevented her from inducing labour without medical assistance. We can't have Clint find out that Kim is a criminal, can we? Schuyler is accused of not caring and not taking responsibility for his child before she was born, but now that she's here, Gigi and Rex and even Kim are trying to keep him from fulfilling his responsibility to her. Even Clint, who has never met Schuyler, didn't hesitate to take him to court to destroy his reputation and take away his child. Is it any wonder that some of us sympathize with Schuyler?
