I think it must have been cut out in reruns, but I KNOW I remember hearing her in the pilot (no pun intended) episode something about paying off gambling debts? I made the mistake of buying the complete set off the internet and it was a taped set some idiot took of Nick at Nite so it was edited. Was I dreaming this?? :crazy:

You're thinking of "There's Always Room for Cello," in Season 2. Joe remarks how nice it is that Helen is giving music lessons to Roy's son, and Helen replies, "Nice? I've got gambling debts to pay!" That may or may not be her exact words, but I know it's something along those lines. That's prob. the moment you're thinking of.

Hope that helps!

Thanks I'm sure that's it. That's one episode I gloss over in reruns because it's kinda boring. They never did anything with the gambling storyline

Well, it wasn't really a storyline, just one reference to Helen gambling. And it never said she had a problem, either, just that she had some bad luck.
