[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]I agree in a general sense with your comment however Lara made it very difficult for Axe to be honest with her. Axe re-hired Wendy for the good of the company as a whole. Also remember that Wendy did nothing wrong, it was Chuck who snuck on to her laptop last season - and Wendy left him because of it! Lara is jealous of something that she herself created, and she is showing her insecurity. Had she allowed Axe to be honest with her, Axe would not have felt the need to start confiding more in Wendy instead of her. But it's clear that Axe worships Lara. Lara knows it and is using it against him.

Taylor is totally ruthless enough are you kidding? did you see that smirk on her face when she realized just how much power Axe handed to her?[/quote]

What you say about Wendy being good for the company makes sense from a rational point of view, but not from the view of a wife.  Lara is on par with Axe in fiercely protecting her own investments. She's been there for him since they were poor, she's been his best confidante and adviser, she knows him better than anyone.  He should know that SHE is the one that the company needs, not some super sexy wife of a sniveling prosecutor who almost brought them down. Remember - they had to pack up and go into hiding. She's got to be feeling that there's something else going there, if not an affair, a reliance that's actually a weakness that could undermine him.  But more important than that, he lied about it.  She's going to be second-guessing everything he says and does.  Think how crazy it would make Axe if he had to deal with that much uncertainty.

And the thing about Taylor is that she's encountered every emotional weakness there is and conquered it.  But avarice is entirely new for her, which means she doesn't yet know how it can trip her up.[/quote]

I don't see greed as a motivation for Taylor. Taylor seems to be driven by the analytic challenge of the work.[/quote]
