But, Edmunds become a lackey for this demented so called family. Poor pitiful whiny Laura gets placated once again. I don't think it was out of line for the secretary to express her displeasure to Laura for the way she was being treated. Edmund should have apologized for Laura's behavior, and when the secretary left the room, he should have reprimanded Laura for abusing her position and mistreating other employees. That girl was a temp or contractor, who's last day was the next day.
Somebody ought to form a union against misguided divas and diva wantabees.
I was appauled when he walked in, and let Laura get away with firing that girl just for saying Greenlee was nice. BUT, I think that Edmund isn't going to forget this. I think he might be one of the few people that will be very aware of what's happening to Laura, mentally, but for now is just keeping his cards close to his chest to watch and observe whatever other crazy things she's going to do. No one gets away with behaviour like that on this show. But Edmund hasn't been in his right mind since Maria died.
