In this episode, Frank has brought Clark home to meet Colette, who reminds Clark of his recently deceased grandmother.  Colette finds this quite confusing, and Rod finds it very suspicious.

This episode really shows off Dorothy Mandy’s acting chops.  She has Colette’s character nailed.

In other news:  The Nanaimo branch of the Unitarian Church is in the process of being recognized as a welcoming congregation. We were deeply honoured this past week when FUFON, the First Unitarian Fellowship of Nanaimo, included our theme song video in the introduction to their service.
I’ll be posting excerpts from that service soon.

Now for anybody who has read this far, here’s a heart warming little bonus video.  Nothing to do with QUILTBAGS, but something I whipped up with the help of Ruth Anderson and Neon Nails of Nanaimo.  – Zale

Though this is a simple scene, it’s been a problem to get it shot.  You can’t believe how difficult it is to find a business that will let a video crew invade their premises for a few hours.

Our sincere thanks to the Nanaimo Green Store, 110-256 Wallace Street, Nanaimo, B.C. V9R 5B3 for allowing us to use their store as our location.  You should shop there if you can.  Great place for very high consciousness food and supplements.

This is art imitating life.  Rick, who plays Frank, is married to a nurse who worked at a seniors home.  One of the residents was on the verge of eviction for threatening to burn the place down, so he invited her to live with him and his husband.  She has enough money to pay for twenty-four hour care.  They treat her like their beloved grandmother and the three of them have all kinds of fun together.  Stay tuned for a golfing episode.  Some day soon.

This episode stars Rick Myers as Frank, Tim Johnson as Rod, and Dorothy Mandy as Colette.

Only the most sophisticated movie buffs will recognize the homage to “Eyes Wide Shut” in this episode.  It was too subtle for me.  – Zale
