Additional Comments: I know that strong women are a rarity on ATWT (see, e.g., Lily, Meg, Katie, etc.), but Maddie's display on Monday was particularly revolting. Who quits school, and a good school at that, to pursue a loser ex-con who is obviously still hung up on his ex? The #1 evidence that Casey no longer loves Maddie is that he selfishly allowed her to quit Wesleyan to take his mind off Alison. Casey is worth a good roll in the hay, but not sacrificing one's future!

Considering it's now November, and college semesters ususally start in September, I'm not sure what the big deal is---she was obviously taking the semester off anyway. She has other reasons to be in Oakdale, namely Henry---though it would be nice to see her have scenes with him as proof her world wasn't revolving around Casey.

Message: Maddie's an idiot. You know, if a man asked me why I was still in town, I'd take that as a sign that I'd overstayed my welcome. Instead, Maddie throws school away, taking an official leave of absence, to be with a man who is only interested in her because the woman he actually wants is rejecting him.

Message: I said almost the exact same thing in my response to my post above about Casey's appeal. WTH gives up an education at Weslyan for the CHANCE of a relationship with a disinterested, selfish, ex-con drop out like Casey? And what woman would want a man who would allow his FRIEND, let alone someone he supposedly loves, to do this only to run to another woman and use the possibility of starting another relationship as leverage to get back together?

Casey's disinterest couldn't be more obvious, and yes, it does seem that Maddie is being dumbed down, but I don't think it's going to last long. I think she and Hunter will wind up together, and they should. They're far better suited to one another.
I'm betting Casey will be odd man out as Allison and Mick grow closer, and he has only himself to blame.
