From Joe Diliberto
I find it hard to fathom why GUIDING LIGHT's Mallet was on foot patrol in that residential neighborhood today. If he doesn't have a cruiser, one would expect his beat to be Main Street, not a quiet neighborhood of large lawns and long distances. In fact, after he strolled over to the park, Mallet and Olivia discussed how the Beacon is "a couple of miles" away — 2.4 miles, to be exact. Springfield is a soap town, populated with kidnappers, serial killers and other deranged characters — the police should be able to respond quickly, not literally "on the run."

Speaking of local crime, what does it say about the world we live in that when Daisy mysteriously received a bunch of daisies she automatically assumed the sender was a deranged stalker? Even though Ashlee and Frank suggested some shy guy was responsible, she assumed the blooms came from a creep. Daisy is very cute; it's not unreasonable that someone would send her flowers. In contrast, Ashlee was stoked about actually meeting a strange man who gave her jewelry! Perhaps Daisy is simply aware that she lives in a soap town — just about any mystery really is connected to a creep.
