Dean Wicks

[maidmarian]

I wonder if Mick knows what he's truly doing. I mean, I was all for Dean getting his comeuppance, but murder??? As despicable as he is, he is still Mick's brother and Shirley's son. Does Mick really think he can kill him and be able to look his mom in the face again, knowing he killed her youngest son? And will he be able to look into Jade's face, knowing he killed her father? Plus, as vengeful as he is, Mick doesn't seem the type who can kill, or at least kill and not feel guilty about it. And what if he gets caught; what will happen to his family then?

It seems to me that he's acting all on impulse, and not thinking things through clearly enough.

The main tbing to me is Dean is removed
and punished and Linda is believed and
her reputation restored.

I agree if Mick "kills" Dean - in one
way he falls to his level.
If it is that Mick kills Dean -he should
consider the possibility of getting caught
( tho it depends how its done-dont
always get caught in soaps)

The results could be an effect on his own
self respect
Being parted from Linda for many years
and the effect of that on Linda and himself.
They are good couple and she has been
through a lot already in the last year.

The effect on his children- their father
labelled as a killer - albeit of scum.

But I dont think he should concern
himself unduly about Shirley. Apart
from the biological fact of having given
birth - the word Mother means whatever
each woman has made it mean to her
family by her actions over years!
In the case of Shirley - that doesnt seem
to be much.Shes a very selfish person-
putting it mildly.

So.I hope there is a way of getting rid
of Dean and vindicating Linda - without
too much detrimental effect on Mick
Linda & their children.

Everyone knows rapists arent always
caught but the storyline has strayed so
much from the original.idea and become
skewed by the PTBs preference for Dean
- that it has lost a lot of effectiveness.
