Where is the edited Timeline posted? Did you also update the Character Cheat Sheet?

I'd have just blamed Will for getting it wrong. 🤣

Thank you for for the regularity. You are the Metamucil of GA 🤣 I seriously do appreciate how consistent this story has been. I know it may not and maybe cannot go on like that forever, but for a year now it has been as dependable as it can be. Nice to see some progress with Travis as Will was approaching his breaking point. I think it should be Jake who sits down with Travis at some point and present the hard evidence about about Dolan screwing over the other guys, just like he did with the Palisades people. It would be even nicer if Jake could get into Dolan's emails or texts and show Travis Dolan boasting to someone about how easily he manipulated Travis and how he planted the hate against Will.

That you Old Faithful (that is Mark Arbour for those of you wondering). It would not be Friday without a CAP chapter. When time on Tonto was first broached, I said Will needed to have a psychologist or psychiatrist on board. He needs a specialist in recovery. Travis needs to be helped to recall what it was that made his so happy before his journey with drugs began. He needs to be helped to recognize how tough it was for Will and the family to take this drastic action to save his life. Not sure where he will do the 8 week rehab. I'd have said Escorial, but that would be too easy to walk away from. Maybe Hawaii was chosen for the destination so Travis can be in a facility on remote Molokai or Kauai.

I don't know how LA Story did at the box office, but I suspect not very well because every scene was an inside LA joke. This scene is typical, starting at about 1:35. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kAFeOE3wmEs

I think you are a little behind 🤣

Happy National Coffee Day!! Can't wait for that chapter coming out!

Ken Dolan is dumber than Ken Doll in Toy Story 3. He never thought more than 2 days in advance in his life. Jake, scary scary Jake, needs to have a conversation with Ken and explain who he is, what he is capable of, and what very very bad consequences Ken will face should he step one smidge out of line.

Thanks Mark. It just wouldn't be Friday without a CAP chapter. I think of all the messes in Hollywood who screwed up their lives, the lives of spouses and children and even lost who lost their lives. This chapter strikes really close to home and I feel for Will. Being a sane person and having the person you love the most in the world (non family member) say all these things to you is agonizing, even if you intellectually understand it is not really them saying it, but the demons inside. No idea how much of the cruise to Hawaii we will see, but by the time they arrive, Travis should be rational, or mostly rational. I just wish these was something Kendo has said or committed to paper that would reveal his plans and designs on Travis. I am just so happy that September 29, 2026 is National Coffee Day, a major national holiday, so we don't need to wait until next Friday for the next chapter.

... kick Travis in the balls and drag his ass out of there.

People think I hate Will. I don't. But Presley Gerber is closer to the reality of scions of fame and wealth that I see and grew up with than Will's example. I often wonder how many of my friends from my youth would be alive today (or at least not messes, in and out of rehab and on their third marriage in their 40's) if their parents exercised more parental control and let the consequences fall on their sons without "beating the system".

Brad simply tells the director to take a three week hiatus. There really is any room for anyone on the show to argue. In three weeks Travis can be dried out. Not sure if he can be healed emotionally in three weeks to confront "Julian". It depends on who Will has engaged to help in the recovery.

I didn't know if to hit "love" or "laugh my ass off" on the Like button, but wound up with "love". Thank you Mark for the newest installment, but fuck you Mark for edging us 🤣 I was hoping for some resolution, and all I have is a little pre-resolution 🤣

In the latest Forbes 400 list, CA has several in the Top Ten. #3 is Larry Page, $278 billion; #5 is Sergey Brin, $256 billion and #6 Mark Zuckerberg, $212 billion; and #8 Jensen Huang of Nvidia, $199 billion. These numbers boggle the mind. I need to raise my hourly. We know Will is an early Facebook investor. Was Stef a Google Investor? I forget.

Completely agree and I think he would have, except Arbour stopped him! This is where you allow literary improbability to advance and set the story. As I said before, Will is in the 0.01%. There are seldom consequences in that tier or at least never severe ones.
