Default "Funeral for a Door Nail"

"not now, we're fighting"

a woman fakes her death to get out of a marriage. the husband is so grief stricken, he gets someone to kill him. he changes his mind, but dies anyway. she is alive and confronts dave and maddie about why she faked her death. here, they figured out her husbands lawyer was going to get the inheritance. they go after him.
a great scene where during the chase, dave and the lawyer have a broom fight to the "STAR WARS" theme.
granville van dusen guest stars as the crooked lawyer. i enjoyed his work on "the young and the restless" years later. but he was good here, as was this episode. one of the best, so far.

rating: 7

My two favorite parts of this episode are the opening discussion about Maddie wanting David to take her to the family wedding and he is delighted! And the scenes in the adult bookstore.... that whole sequence is just a hoot!!

M: "What do they do in there?"

D: "And what pray tell makes you think I would know?"

M gives him a look that says, yeah, right.

D: "Ok, well then what pray tell makes you think I would tell you...."

Later.....

M: "What are you doing?"

D: "Trying to make sure we don't run out of quarters!"

The only part about this one that I remember is the adult bookstore scene, which was just great.

I watched this episode this morning, I had tears in my eyes from laughing about that first scene with David and Maddie. Now I have tears in my eyes again because I saw those pictures and thought back about the scene LMAO!!! I love this episode!!

David: "One for the money, two for the gliss, three to get ready, now let's see some..."

Maddie: "David!"

David: "Something, let's see something."

LMAO !!!

greets Steph

I really loved this episode especially when David says "Don't blame me, I don't write this stuff!!"

For some reason, my Dad assumed the episode had finished, so I don't have the final chase scene on tape.... Argh!!!!

Thanks for posting the pics Carina, otherwise I'd never know what happened with the end....
