Hard Time in The Big House
Erica, Erica, Erica, how has it come to this? The treatment of our heroine is despicable. It’s one thing to be in solitary confinement but without a hair brush and worst of all, wearing orange sneakers! Oh the humanity!!!!
Okay maybe I’m a little over the top, lol. But seriously did you see that poor Ms. Kane was sitting on the grungy floor and later laying in bed. I figured it was because she couldn’t keep her balance in those flat, non-designer, shoes. The poor woman must have fallen down and couldn’t get back up.
A very interesting side note to her solitary confinement episode. She seems to have lost her mind in a day. I’m sorry but Erica is way stronger than Greenlee Smythe, who survived a month in a hole and she was claustrophobic. If anything she should be losing her mind from all that orange. I’m sorry but orange is NOT the new pink! LOL. 
Just look at how wonderful Erica looked in the hospital. I guess this is the difference of having access to the make up and stuff and just being thrown in the dungeon.
Which brings me to the obvious pink elephant. Erica Kane is a wealthy woman, with powerful friends (Remember Rupert Murrdock?). She’s got political connections and media connections. Heck she’ll write a book about her experiences. And she has a television show as her platform to trash the penal system every day once she’s released from jail. Erica’s not in prison for 25 to life. She’s in for 6 months or less. So what dumb headed Prison Warden would stick her in solitary?
Yeah, Yeah I know it’s a soap but still. If this was Dixie Cooney it would have made sense. If it had been Angie Hubbard it would have made sense but Erica Kane…this makes no sense to me.
Here Endth My Rant!
It’s a bad storyline, but it’s an Erica storyline and for some particular reason this involves fantasy and lack of attention to detail. Erica should be thrown away for good since she’s well beyond her three strikes.
