In regards to things not making sense, and Opie's baseball fabrication. it seems these are common themes on the show. Malcolm pretending to get drunk so he'd be fired all to bring Aunt Bea back into action. and how about Andy and Ellie's fabrication of a burglar to boost Barney's morale.
I've always felt that many of the plot devices seemed contrived and simplistic when viewed too critically, but I always console myself that if they'd taken the "obvious" common sense approach, then the episode would be 10 minutes long. _______________________________________________ WBMUTBB mailing list [email protected] http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
