Should Phyllis Stay or Go?
Phyllis (Michelle Stafford) has found new love with reformed villain Matt (Roger Howarth). The pair’s relationship has grown serious the past few months. So, when Matt announced he was leaving town with Patty (Stacy Haiduk), it stunned Phyllis.
Yet, in true Phyllis fashion, she’s not ready to give up Matt so easily. The redhead came up with the perfect solution of leaving with Matt. However, she’s got an incentive to stay thanks to her son Daniel (Michael Graziadei).
Phyllis and Daniel have been on the outs since her takeover of Newman. Yet, when Phyllis stopped by the Shadow Room to vent her frustrations, Daniel proved he still cares about his mom.
When Phyllis says this doesn’t feel like her home, and she has nobody, Daniel reminded her that’s not true. She’s got Lauren (Tracey Bregman), Michael (Christian Le Blanc), and even Sharon (Sharon Case).
Phyllis complained that her friends and family are too judgmental. She then expressed how Matt was the only one who truly made her feel seen.
Like Matt, Phyllis was a GC villain and committed many misdeeds. But despite her flaws, Matt loves and accepts her for who she is, something her loved ones don’t do.
Phyllis Waits In The Wings
Daniel managed to convince Phyllis to stay and fight to reconnect with her family and friends, something Matt wanted her to do. Although Phyllis decided to stay in GC, she’s not giving up on Matt.
After telling Matt of her plans, the two shared a passionate night together. Matt encouraged Phyllis to move on while he was gone, but she refused. Phyllis promised she’d be right there waiting when he returned from taking care of Patty.
Matt is the best thing that happened to Phyllis, and he wants her to be happy. While he’s gone, she’ll try to reconnect with her loved ones. But the one she really wants is Matt, and she’ll welcome him with open arms when and if he returns.
