Lee is Janet, same person. Todd hired her to look after Marty while she was recuperating. Years ago this same actress was on OLTL as Lee Halpern, but I don't remember exactly what she was portraying at the time, something to do with Max, I think.
Anyway, Lee came clean to Nora about her involvement in Todd's schemes, pretty much destroying Tea's case to get Todd off.
(And I only watch this soap a couple of times a month!!)
