Message: <blockquote data-quote="Spells &amp; Karma" data-source="post: 203747" data-attributes="member: 23">Episodes 269-272   (...continued)The writers are working overtime in an effort to make Andrew Foley interesting, but this conversation pretty much just summed up Andrew’s motivation on the series. He’s a much darker character than I remembered. There have been some psychological games with Carly which are downright twisted. He’s worked it so that he holds all the cards, coaxing Carly into confessing to her attraction for him by asking the right questions and only then admitting to having feelings for her. He’s passed Carly onto another counsellor now that she’s asked him to arrange it, and now that he is certain he can continue seeing her personally.<img src="https://i.vgy.me/WHVB1a.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="https://i.vgy.me/S542RI.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Before Carly’s confession there were lots of what could be deemed creepy looks in her direction.Now that the two are an item, the responses of Tom and Pippa have been interesting. Tom expressed (mild) doubts, just as he did about Andrew being Carly’s counsellor. Pippa thought Andrew was healthy to pass Carly into someone else’s care all this time later. It’s a surprising way of looking at it. Carly may be eighteen, but she certainly qualifies as vulnerable with her history, recent and not so recent.Donald has the sense to be appalled:<img src="https://i.vgy.me/PG3KwY.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Meanwhile, Morag has spotted Andrew and Carly frolicking on the beach and recognised him:<img src="https://i.vgy.me/me0cdN.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />And a couple of phone calls later:All this backstory is a bit of a worry. It suggests Andrew will be around for some time yet. But at least Morag’s in the thick of it. She’s already been to Summer Bay House to compliment Carly on how pretty she looks and to invite her - and Andrew - to her soiree. Leaving Carly, Tom and Pippa extremely confused.Another invitation recipient has been round to give Morag a formal reply:<img src="https://i.vgy.me/oUBAce.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />There’s a lovely moment where Morag turns her back while delivering a lengthy sarcastic comment to Alf, and he walks off. Just as she’s dismissively bidding him goodbye she turns round to find he has already gone. It doesn’t matter in the grand scheme of things, but it’s one of those little flourishes that makes all the difference.continued...</blockquote>
