another controversial storyline involving brad carlton was his largely unexplained alter ego named george kaplan in 2006. fans had a very negative reaction to the introduction of a plot surrounding nazis and artwork involving brad's mother during wwii. brad's mother supposedly was in her early 20s during world war ii, which would make brad's mother in her mid to late 80s in 2006. however, the actress who played brad's mother appeared to be around 60, far too young for this role. fans complained that the nazi artwork plot made no sense at all, along with brad's age and the age his mother was supposed to be. the plot was completely dropped without mention, brad then had an affair with sharon newman, and then was killed off trying to save sharon's son noah when he fell through ice on a frozen lake. the actor don diamont then transferred to y&r's "sister show" the bold and the beautiful as a new character named bill.
