Episode Report Card Cate: C | 1 USERS: A+ YOU GRADE IT Bitch, bitch, bitch
By Cate | Season 5 | Episode 9 | Aired on 11.26.2000
Lucy and Ruthie arrive. Robbie, a.k.a. Mr. Charming, suavely says, "Good evening, ladies," and then looks over at Eric, as if to say, "Look! Pretty damn respectful, huh?" Ruthie elected to skip the concert so that she could spend the evening talking to Lucy at a hamburger joint. Yeah, that might happen. Lucy and Ruthie depart. RevCam asks Robbie if he will be speaking to Mary again. Robbie thinks he should just let Mary think he got married so that she can find a new boyfriend in Buffalo. Right, because a woman is nothing without a boyfriend, of course. RevCam says, "If I'm to be respectful of my daughter, I have to tell her the truth." Eric, you know, it's way too late to be respectful of your daughter. You breached her confidentiality all over town and illegally took possession of her car. Just because the Glenoak busybodies helped you out with all that still doesn't make it right. Robbie leaves, but not before thanking Eric for "saving" his "life." The sad music plays while Stephen Collins tries not to laugh at the stupidity of this episode. Fortunately, I don't have to be as polite.
