Shadows on the Wall: Episode 19

Then & Now

John: Do you think they were considering developing a relationship between Liz and Bill Malloy? He seems to have more than an employee-employer relationship...

Christine: Bill could have made a nice match for Liz. Perhaps if they'd become romantically involved, he might have avoided his eventual fate. 

Did anyone else choke a little when Bill insisted Carolyn wouldn't do anything foolish?

It's self-service at the Collinsport Inn restaurant today, with plain hamburgers and coffee on the menu, served up by good ol' Joe. I wonder what caused Maggie to become so ill that diners were left to fend for themselves.


Shadows on the Wall

John: Is there a bronze statue near every phone in Collinwood?

Where do you think Roger stores his collection of Sam Evans paintings? It dawns on me that I don't believe we ever see Roger's bedroom. Come to think of it, do we see anyone's bedroom other than David or Vicki's?

Christine: There may be a bronze statue in nearly every room we've seen so far. I think David's room is the only one lacking bronze statuary, though perhaps I've been too fixated on his toys to notice. 

We will see the other bedrooms eventually. You must have repressed those memories, so I won't remind you of the circumstances in which we encounter them and will simply let you rediscover them in their own time. 

The Blue Whale sign from the outside really screams dive bar.
