What was the point of Traci's Grand Phoenix stay?

Traci has been taking care of Dina all this time. They thought it would be nice for Traci to have a rest.

xoregonian -
great post. A caregiver typically doesn’t take the time for themselves so it was a good reminder.

I prefer the GCAC too; however, look how many characters lived there. There was a scene with Gloria in the spa so I did not find it odd that Tracy was at TGL.

I thought Phyllis was used to send the massage therapist up to Tracy’s room so they didn’t have to have a spa set. And it made Tracy feel even more special because it was private.

I didn't think about it that way, but if it was a PSA for caregivers it is very timely.
Phyllis the hotel owner... I still have a hard time taking her seriously.

Since Traci and Jack talked about it, I figured it was their way of giving Traci a break now (and Jack did send that booze up for her) since it seems she's been there for Dina quite a bit.

I don’t think Tracy left since they brought Dina back home, for sure it’s seems she goes back and for to NY so easily, but I don’t think she really left but she wasn’t just shown beside Lily’s meeting.... but I think they respected it was one week ago, if the meeting with Jack for rebranding was a week ago also ...

You make a good point, sadly many caregivers are lucky to take a PB&J in the backyard for a few minutes for their break.
Funny, I thought she was in NYC. We have had constant news breaks so she just suddenly showed up there for me.

It was a PSA for caregivers, to tell them all it's okay to take a break and leave your loved one, if only for one night. It's to emphasize that you should do something completely for yourself after taking care of an affected loved one.

Bonus for me was that Phyllis actually seemed like a hotel owner.

I have to agree with you. I really miss the AC.

[couplingchick]

I agree.. I don’t think we will ever see this hotel Abby is supposedly building. Imo it’s no more ridiculous that everyone goes to The Grand Phoenix as it is that Society is apparently the only restaurant in Genoa City ... they simply don’t have the money for any more sets ... that much is obvious.

It gave them an opportunity to show a Tracy while displaying Phyllis has a heart...

That is why I don’t think Abby will ever open a second hotel.

Why did they even get rid of the Genoa City's much more luxurious classic Athletic Club set? I preferred the wood tone, low lighting, a place that had a different atmosphere, just way more relaxing and a place you expect more privacy or the service is top notched. It used to have more rooms, too, and the hotel suites, the exercise or fitness area, etc. I missed the entrance, too, the revolving glass entrance. The new sets does not give off the same vibe or atmosphere. They should have kept the set of the Athletic Club, it was a set for the more powerful rich business titans and for others, too.

Jack did arrange it. She was talking to him, thanking him for whatever it was she was drinking.

That is my thought as well. Not too far away if something comes up. Far enough away to detatch a bit. I helped care for my mother and mother-in-law who both had alzheimers. Jack is being a good brother.

Maybe it will come out that Jack arranged it.

That would be nice to think he did it for Traci!
