Years and years ago when the show was still on Lifetime, I distinctly recall the episode in which Bernice first meets Carlene and Allison. She asked who the hell they were, and they in turn pampered her like a client until Anthony told Allison and Carlene that she was merely a friend of the family; this prompted her to reply something along the lines of, "Oh, I hope that doesn't mean you're going to stop kissing my butt!" Doesn't ANYONE remember the vivid details I do? I've since searched for and watched all the earliest episode of S6 before the new girls meet Bernice...yet no such scene is in any of the episodes! The first time they appear to interact is in the Clarence Thomas case episode sans the scene I described above. Of course, it could have been omitted from the syndicated episodes I viewed. But, even then, the credits indicate that Bernice wasn't present for the first 7 episodes of the season until the "Strange Case". Now, I know I am already insane, but this is really too much! Can anyone help me out here?!:eek:

S06E15 - Payne Comes Home.

I think its Julia and Mary Jo that reminisce about the first time Bernice met Carlene and Allison, but its in that episode.

Hello there! Just wanted to tell you that your are not losing your mind. The episode that you are referring to was just shown on the the Tv Guide channel recently. What drives me crazy is why the stations keep getting programs like this and other classic shows and get rid of them almost immediately, knowing full well that they are still popular with an well liked by the audience. Perhaps the idiots who run these stations have an arterial flow problem above the neck.
