[QUOTE="Spells & Karma, post: 197132, member: 23"] [U][SIZE=6]Episodes 161-166[/SIZE][/U] [I]…continued[/I] After velveting their paws for a few hours, Roo and Morag were straight back to scheming at the reading of Alan’s will, where the claws were back out for Ailsa as they plotted to keep her and Alf apart. [IMG]https://i.vgy.me/bjrsrg.jpg[/IMG] Morag even went to the trouble of visiting Pippa at the hospital to try to find out more about Ailsa’s mystery man. It was amusing how transparent she was - even to Pippa. And even more amusing that she seemed to have no idea how to feign interest in baby Christopher. This is the first will reading we’ve seen on the series, and it furthers the[I] Sons and Daughters[/I] vibe. [IMG]https://i.vgy.me/xX7jdt.jpg[/IMG] Except Dee Morrell never asked Stephen to sell her surfboard “and have a slap up party for all the rels”. Just for the record, here’s what everyone got: Alf: nothing. Roo: I remember Alan’s advice to Roo appearing on the back of one of the novelisations ([I]The Roo Stewart Story[/I], probably). Bobby: a parcel containing Alan’s teddy bear Benjamin, and a letter saying how much he loved her. Barbara: Celia: Donald: One of the more interesting interactions of the will reading was that between Morag and Bobby. If memory serves this is their first exchange, yet they weren’t even in the same shot while Morag read out her part of Alan’s will. Morag appeared to steel herself before saying Bobby’s name, and the looks she cast in Bobby’s direction while passing her the package.

The only moment she looks at Bobby, Morag is actually glaring. It’s hard to pinpoint when the scene plays out, but… something is going on here. With the benefit of hindsight it’s giddily exciting.
