Her reply was interesting. Makes you wonder if she was supposed to be in a bigger storyline than it ended up being? I wonder if she was supposed to be Maggie's real daughter?
Or, being that her name is Janet Bernard, if she was supposed to have some connection to Janice Barnes? Especially since they very prominently showed Janice's ornament this past Christmas. Janice's ornament hasn't been seen since the late 80's.
I think it would've been interesting to have Janet turn out to be Janice's unknown child, a baby given up for adoption at birth. That way, Maggie could've had an emotional connection to her, yet it wouldn't screw up Maggie's backstory.
