Current Talk '08 II / Re: Vicki's Mother

That's an interesting theory, Nelson Collins! The first time I saw that early episode in which Vicki found the portrait of Betty Hanscomb, I wondered if Sam was telling tales, because the drawing looked like Liz as well as Vicki, and Betty is a diminutive of Elizabeth. I wondered at the time if maybe Sam was keeping Liz's secret because he'd been in some way involved. Maybe he acted as a go-between for Liz/Betty and Bill Malloy?
But, going along with what Philippe Cordier mentioned about our earlier take on Vicki's parentage, I do have to wonder if Betty Hanscomb wasn't Liz's half sister and Vicki's mother.
All of the theories advanced here carry some degree of believability. I really wish the writers had revealed the truth of Victoria's background during the run of the show, but since they didn't, we now have a really interesting topic to bandy about!
