First let me say - Thank You for the update ....

Personally I quite enjoyed this epsiode.  Some of the inter-relationships 
were great !!!

I wish Kate would realize how manipulative her mother is.  This relationship
reminds me of Abby and Olivia - Olivia just didn't see that everything Abby
did was manipulative - Kate is a very similar - somewhat boring character.

I'd like to see Kate fight back ....

I laughed at this - I thought that this was great.... Nick was saying
See you later doll - I'm going to get my bread buttered elsewhere ...

This was one of the best interactions I've seen on Knots in a long time. 
I was impressed.  Maybe I'm weird or something - but I must have replayed the
part between Greg and Paige 5 times before I was satisfied ...

I know that Val was a staple on the show for years - but most everyone knows
that she is not coming back....  I wish they would drop this storyline and
get on with Gary ...

BTW - What happened to the job offer gary had in Milwaukee??  I'd really like
to see him take it - and of course take the "Twins" with him...

I don't believe him.  Did you see the look on his face ???

Another EXCELLENT part of this episode !!!

One of the things that Nick did before he left was steal some art pieces from
greg's office - I believe after talking greg into installing an alarm system
which Nick sold him.  I originally thought that Anne was in on this.  Nick
was supposed to sell the art and give Anne some money - but instead - he just
took off ... Anne became homeless ... (you know the rest)...

IMOHO - Big mistake Kate !!!

Just a question ladies - How many of you regularly - or even irregularly have
luch with your OBGYN ???




Thats my two cents... Does anyone else have some spare change ? :)
