It's a soap situation, and as such, immune to all the usual rules of normal life. You need only offer the briefefst of investigations and everything falls apart. For example, and I'm thinking this out as I type - why is everyone scared of Den Watts, he's a skinny hoarse whisperer! How does a lumpen dork like Martin Fowler manage to attract the presistent attentions of a pretty waitress? Why doesn't Andy watsit, the other toekn 'hard man' never wear jeans and a tee shirt? The list goes on - you can while away an idle ten minutes doing this with any soap at all.
