[QUOTE="Willie Oleson, post: 63157, member: 8"] But when they put these three characters together, it's magic! And it already starts with the reason why: Susan hopes that, by taking Jill into their house, her husband will find himself attracted to the fresh young girl. And that should make him doubt his calling as a minister. I thought it was quite a gamble as it's very difficult to control other people's feelings (unless your name is Martin Peyton). [ATTACH=full]3967[/ATTACH] Although now I feel that his introvert and passive character makes the emotional scenes even more emotional, because it seemed impossible that something like this (his attraction to Jill) could ever happen to [I]him[/I]. At this point (episode 451) they are all aware of the fact that there's a "situation" going on, but only Tom and Susan know why Jill was hired in the first place. Normally, this would be a reason for Tom to fire Jill, but no...he doesn't want to do that. The atmosphere at the Winters' is filled with guilt and resentment (and too much alcohol), and Jill finds herself trapped in a bizarre and nightmarish triangle. Oh, she's a total gem, and an obscure one at that. According to IMDb, Elizabeth "Tippy" Walker has only done a handful of roles, and her last part was a guest appearance on [I]The Sixth Sense[/I] (which I'd love to see) in 1972. A divorce story may not seem so earth-shattering these days, but I find her performance simply mesmerizing. She's funny, manipulative, her insults and provocations always sound polite, and there's a constant twinkling in her eyes that seems to suggest that she's a step ahead of everyone else. [ATTACH=full]3968[/ATTACH] Basically, she's a twisted version of Allison. Rodney and Norman are involved in a car vs. motorbike accident, and the doctors have to perform a difficult operation - it's the only way to find out how much damage has been done. The motorbikes, the racing, Betty telling them "be careful!"...Rodney telling her "don't worry!". Yes, what could possibly go wrong?:lol: The fact that Steven Cord was driving the car doesn't help matters. No update about Joe Rossi! Except that he's at work and not so angry anymore.
