Vengeful Wife (The Golden Girls)

The unnamed Vengeful Wife is an unseen villainess from "That Was No Lady", episode 1.14 of The Golden Girls (airdate December 21, 1985). She was a villainess from the past of Blanche Deveraux, who knew her through her third cousin.
The episode's plot has Dorothy Zbornak learning that her current boyfriend Glen O'Brien is married, and facing disapproval from Rose Nylund (her second roommate) for continuing her relationship with him. While attempting to speak in Dorothy's defense, Blanche brought up how her third cousin had been having an affair with a married man for fifteen years.
Dorothy inquired if the two were still together, to which Blanche said they weren't due to the fact that the unnamed man's wife--presumably after having learned about her husband's infidelity--shot him in the genitals (with Blanche referring to the act as her "shooting him in the boxer shorts"). Blanche also stated that her cousin's lover "lost interest" after being attacked by his scorned wife, though her ultimate fate is left unknown.
