[QUOTE="Daniel Avery, post: 442480, member: 27"] The show made it a point to have those two go back and forth on reasons to hate one another as well as opportunities to reconcile (or at least lay down the dueling pistols). The ground beneath them kept shifting back and forth but the rivalry had to be preserved for the sake of the show. Having those two become friends would have been akin to making JR and Cliff into golfing buddies, or Alexis and Krystle doing one another's hair. That said, in the Murakame/Lotus Point plot, I think too much time had passed (and too many other slights had occurred) for Karen to use the Diana situation as a way of forgiving Abby. Abby's scheme to take Meg from M&K (to help Greg win that election) would have been tops on Karen and Mack's "Unforgivable Sin" List and would have cancelled out any sympathies the two may have had toward Abby. Scheming to take away Lotus Point and drill for oil on it would have scored lower on that (extensive) list than trying to take their[I] daughter[/I]. [/QUOTE]
