I was expecting Ann and Schneider to come looking for barbara in chicago and burst in the room and see her and bob. I was surprised that didnt happen

- If Bob was gay he’d have no problem being in bed with Barbara

- All the family knew was that they were in Chicago. There was no way they could find them.

I just mentioned that part in another thread earlier tonight. Tony and Angela did that same thing on Who’s The Boss, and they were way older.

It’s based on some old movie scene, but I don’t remember which movie.

Yeah. Exactly. Bob mentioned the movie, but I forget what he said.

Being able to type 90 words a minute is fast, and she seemed very good and efficient at the job before going into the epileptic trance. Maybe ended up getting a better paying job.

Bob was very inexperienced with girls. So shy and nervous too. And he really put Barbara up on a pedestal, like a queen which would make him more nervous in that situation, really didn't want to feel disrespectful, even thought he wasn't at all. Remember he didn't even feel it was appropriate to have their underwear touching in the drawer.Barbara saud , we'll put the Bible between them than.

That was funny when Barbara said even going to confession she had to make up sins cause she didn't have any.

I used to do that as a little girl in Catholic school, they forced us to go to confession. The nuns walked us over to the church and I was too scared of the nuns to tell them I had no sins to confess, . Sometimes I dId. Like I took cookies after my Mom said I couldn't have any more, or I fought with my sister , I used a bad word. I mean what kind of sins can a 2nd or 3rd grader have? LOL. So sometimes I always could not think of anything I did bad lately. So I'd make up sins and include I lied. Cause I was lying to the priest right than about my fake sins. LOL!

Here’s some things she could have used at that point:

- sneaking in beer and getting drunk

- lying about being on the pill (besides lying, has a sex and drug angle)

- didn’t invite Dads new wife to his party

- kicked Mr. Butterfield

- cheated at school

- set up dates with 2 boys at the same time

- and of course, gelling Aunt Clara to death

She also started a fire in.the toilet as a kid. Flushed Julie's Raggedy Ann doll down the toilet ( I forget what episode that was , but it was when she said she'd pay Ann back for a money loan and Ann said you still owe me from when you tried to flush Raggedy Ann down the toilet). Also something about framing Julie for apple cores or something? I think that was in Barbara's wedding episode in Vegas? Julie and Barbara were confessing stuff to Ann in the hotel room.

She’ll have a good one after tomorrow. Stealing money from the bank.

I went back and checked. It was It Happened One Night. Clark Gable and Claudette Colbert. 1934. They weren’t even in the same bed!

[opus]

Bob also writes a postcard “Dear Eddie, I’m in a motel room with Barbara Cooper. Wish you were here”

Maybe it was to Eddie Van Halen.

[TVFactFan]

Bob could have just sleep on the floor with the damm pillow if he wanted to avoid making barbara feel uncomfortable
