[spoiler]Tuesday's quote:
Ep #102 (1966) - Roger - 'I MUST talk to you, and I didn't want you to call out and bring that little counter girl back.'
From "#0101/0102: Robservations 08/01/01: Roger's Evil Intentions"
Vicki struggles in Roger's grasp. I had to do that, he tells her, so you couldn't call out for your little friend to come back--do you understand? Vicki nods. If I take my hand away now, will you promise not to scream--it won't do you any good anyway, you know, we're the only ones in this house. Vicki nods. Roger slowly removes his hand, pushes Vicki into the drawing room and closes the doors. Vicki backs away, scared. Roger advances toward her and she backs away. Please don't do anything silly, he says, you don't honestly think you can escape from me, do you? Vicki stands behind a chair. What do you want? she asks. You think I killed Bill Malloy, don't you? he asks. I don't think anything, she says, darting away from him. If you really think that, he says, you must be petrified with fear right now, because if I killed him, then I would surely have to kill you, too, wouldn't I? Vicki is terrified. Be reasonable, says Roger, if I'd have meant to harm you, I'd have already done it--I must talk to you, and I didn't want you to call out and bring that little counter girl (always the snob!) back. What can you possibly say to me? demands Vicki. What I hope you want to hear, he says. About Bill Malloy? she asks. Yes, he says--they say confession is good for the soul--well, my soul needs purifying--I want to tell you exactly what happened that night. What do you expect me to do after you've told me? asks Vicki. That's for you to decide, he says, all I ask is that you hear the whole story--agreed? All right, she says cautiously.

The Robservations references the quote perfectly...
(always the snob!)
And we wouldn't want it any other way. In fact, considering we often use Roger's "cheap, insufferable pig" to refer to Jeb, maybe Maggie should be referred to as the "little counter girl." Well, at least until she stops working at the diner. There are way bigger issues once she becomes governess at Collinwood.
But that's another discussion!!
