Do the Writers of the Show Not Know About How False Termination Laws Work?

I’m asking because, based on what I can tell from Electra and Dylan’s story from the teasers, Electra is engaging in a blatant quid pro quo. If that’s what happens in the show, and Dylan doesn’t sue Forrester for false termination, it’d not only be stupid, it’d be a missed opportunity.
Side note: Given that the show (probably) shot on location in Monaco for last week’s episodes, I know they can afford to construct a courtroom set, and soap operas can absolutely do courtroom drama engagingly. See Curtis’s trial on “General Hospital” earlier this month for proof of this.
EDIT: Just to be clear, I’m not saying that the show won’t do that, just that I wouldn’t be surprised if they didn’t.

Here You Go, James… The Ending Screens for the First Case of “Dick Tracy” on the NES

I used the Game Genie invincibility code on my emulator to get to them, and I’m totally cool with that. I wish there was a mod out there that adjusts the difficulty, gives you three lives and the ability to add more (along with continues, of course) and adds QOL improvements, because if those three things were fixed, this game could actually be enjoyable.

Looking for Someone to Answer My Questions About Currently Airing US Soaps

Context: I started watching “General Hospital” when John Oliver announced on his show that he was going to be in episodes of both it and “Days of Our Lives.” I backed up to the most far-back “GH” episodes available on Hulu at the time, and while I’m partway into breaking my way through “GH” lore, I’m still a bit confused about a large portion of the stories being told, and while I had a somewhat easier time following what went on on the first episode of “DoOL,” it would be nice to have someone who’s been following the stories further back than I’ve been to explain how the characters got to that point so I can understand they’re acting that way now, as well as follow the dialogue exchanges between characters I’m unfamiliar with.
I have a feeling that that’s likely how most of you got caught up when you were starting out, and given how hard it is to find soap fans IRL now, and given the lack of updates to fan wikis as they stand, I’m hoping that I can find someone to talk to me through DMs, either here or on Discord, so I can ask them what’s going on.
