Kyle/Theo office drama

[Smithey]

Boring and predictable. I'm ready for classic episodes every day.

Now that would have been a setting for good drama on multiple fronts with Adam heading Jabot. Far more creative than the dueling millenials. none of which have genuine rooting value.

[JBB1974]

Like I said before, there was nobody likeable in this storyline. Jack should have fired all 3. And that should have happened prior to this silly competition Jack cooked up which was stupid to begin with. A good twist would have been if Jack fired all 3 and named Adam Co CEO instead of the writers having Adam take over Newman.

Summer lol... laying in Theo's bed until Kyle came back around, now she can't stand Theo? Some women just make you shake your head. haha

Summer just seems so smug, I really can't stand her with this much power she clearly didn't deserve.

[Rustic57]

Actually Kendra should be fired as well

[shortcake2015]

Don't stand in judgement of someone when you have been proven to be no better. Kyle was given more than one second chance after a screwup and so has Sumner. Why are they so much better than Theo?

Didn't Kyle come in to GC being mentored by Victor to overthrow Jack at Jabot? He was given a second chance and named CEO more than once.

Why doesn't Theo deserve the same courtesy?

Jack was Kyle's father. Kyle is only Theo's cousin.

I wish Theo would have bowed out and looked for a new gig. He never stood a chance. His supervisor Summer used to be his bed buddy, now she is his boss? Very unprofessional. I wish Billy had stuck around to take on the “kids table” which is what Summer and Kyle are.

[Chatty Cakes]

Me too! He’s such an entitled smug little brat.

[Chatty Cakes]

I’m with you Soapquest. Kyle was cheating. I don’t remember Jack saying there could be teams. Kyle right away goes to his once believed sister/wife/mistress and has her all up in the challenge.
Theos helper was so obviously not capable of being slick that even Summer could tell something was wrong (while Kyle, co CEO, didn’t even notice!)
The writing is now to make Summer and Kyle look like a power couple. ?????? It’s backfiring, they are very boring!

'Individual' is not the word Jack used. He said they had seven days to come up with an idea for re-branding. I watched it again because I needed clarification on what he said about Ashley for another topic on this board.
On this, we agree to disagree.
Kyle shouldn't have to let Theo spoon feed him garbage either. If Theo is suffering, it's because of something he did himself. I'm not sure where Lola comes into play here.

[YRRanger]

Maybe Theo can make a pitch to Lily and Billy? LOL. Maybe something Jack didn’t once write.

Nobody looks too good here.
Whether Kyle can fire Theo or not... It’s time Jack steps in and breaks up the children on the playground. It’s been Romper Room at Jabot for too long now.

[SoapQuest]

I didn't say it was a plan. I said he was told to leave Theo alone and he didn't. Jack said it was to be an individual project individual meaning one, single, alone. Not a group project. Kyle is cheating by getting help from Summer but like I've said nothing he and Summer do wrong is reprimanded. It's always Theo or Lola who suffers.

[CouchCruisin']

Kyle thought Summer was mistaken when *she* noticed Kendra snooping, trying to see what they were working on, so no, this was not Kyle's plan to bother Theo. He didn't disobey his father.
Jack never said Kyle and Theo couldn't have help. If Theo had been smart, he would have called on some of the folks who used to work with him for some fresh ideas. Heck, he could have even asked Kendra to help him, but in the right way - by not snooping and stealing.
Summer also said that she stepped away from her team to help Kyle with his pitch (yesterday's episode), so I don't believe she has been helping Kyle since day one. But even if she has, Jack didn't say it wasn't allowed.

[SoapQuest]

I said Theo is wrong but that doesn't validate what Kyle and Summer are doing. They're wrong too and Jack should reprimand all three but he won't. He will let Theo's termination stand and he'll give Kyle control of the brand and that sends a bad message to them that they can treat employees anyway they want.

But why do I have the feeling Theo did not do what Summer and Kyle set him up for? The impressions on Theo‘s face today make me believe he suspects he is
being set ip.
