Default I can't believe that Vera was the SMART one in this episode!!!

In "Mel's Cup", Alice and Flo were stupid enough to take something from the diner without asking Mel first. Meanwhile, it was Vera who did a little detective work to find out who took the cup. LOL Strange episode!

This was the beginning of the SMART Vera. She was no longer that much of a dingy.

Excellent Point!!!

I did notice that she did get a little more attractive. Larry was actually hitting on her too in the beginning of the episode. Maybe more make up?

Yep. Her eyes before were not made up. No make-up on them before, which made her eyes have that blank stare (or scary look to them like you said). Now, the make-up really brings out her eyes and the color. She is definitely "looking good" (like in the words of Freddie Prinze)

Plus, her hair wasn't in that CRAZY style that it usually is in.

Oh God yes. Good catch. Before it was like a rat's nest. NOW, it is nicely in place and looks like she combed it.

That is two episodes in a row, where Vera looks pretty.

1. One Night to Remember

2. Mel's Cup

And will continue. I know when I watch the first season of Alice, I can't wait til they get to this point of the show where Vera is made up better and getting smarter. Watching her in the first season it is so hard because I know she doesn't look that bad and eventually the character becomes less of a dingbat.

I will certainly take your word for it, because I am seeing it for myself.

Son of a gun, I can't believe what I'm reading from you folks out there!
So, is it finally not "just me"? Is VeraMania really starting to run wild?

It's just like the episode when they were all in a cabin and they had a tornado warning, Vera was the one with the level head.
