She had asked him, close to begged him, to talk to someone following his mother’s death, and especially after he started sleepwalking, and he chose to ignore it. Perhaps he is projecting his guilt at his stubbornness onto Carla? <br />It will be interesting to see how they make up, because I can’t Christienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7830446634490957159.post-23260037191562669392019-02-26T22:23:26.707+00:002019-02-26T22:23:26.707+00:00Agree with every word Anonymous.

Agree too that Carla in time will have learned something about herself.

Regardless of her bad decisions, I don't think there was any need to be so cold, and quite frankly, heartless to her.<br />Don't get me wrong, I adore Roy. He's the moral compass of the street but not everything is black and white in this situation. <br />I felt for Carla when she tried to tell him Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7830446634490957159.post-14322644460057315642019-02-26T17:55:10.641+00:002019-02-26T17:55:10.641+00:00You're quite welcome Ruth!

How someone takes a roof though, still escapes me.<br />I guess Phelan did do a rubbish job if he was trying to do construction AND conduct all his 'vallainry' at the same time! lol<br />C in Canadanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7830446634490957159.post-8689377289177120482019-02-26T17:48:44.916+00:002019-02-26T17:48:44.916+00:00One thing Carla doesn't possess is humility. A...One thing Carla doesn't possess is humility. As Roy said, she thinks she can fix everything whether people want it her way or not. The depression storyline will play out (superbly, I'm sure) and she will emerge a more self-aware individual. Roy will be part of her recovery and their relationship will become more equal, shifting up and down depending on which of them needs support.Humpty Dumptyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08968124501003519978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7830446634490957159.post-63451609465025646302019-02-26T15:47:07.262+00:002019-02-26T15:47:07.262+00:00Great post Ruth.

Re the roof - Pat Phelan’s villainry (is that a word?) continues from the grave, it seems; Gary reckons he did a rubbish job fixing the roof the first time.

Roy knows she did it (out of jealousy for Peter yes) but also out of trying to protect him when he was vulnerable.<br /><br />BTW, wasn't the factory roof replaced just recently?
