Episode #287: "Care to dance, Mrs. Flax?" | Mermaids (1990)

Families are all a little different. In Charlotte's family, they never stay in one place too long, her mother never stays with one man for too long, and dinner consists of finger sandwiches with marshmallow kabobs.

That may also include the local boy that's got Charlotte ready to lose her religion.

Episode 285: "Ditto" | Ghost (1990)

We've seen enough movies by now to know that you should never walk down a dark street at night after leaving the theater. It didn't work for the Waynes and it didn't work for Sam Wheat. A promising young man with a good job and a woman who loves him, cut down in his prime. Oh, but he's not done yet. He's going to go all Jason Lee Crow on his buddy who betrayed him.
Okay, maybe not. But that sounds fun too. I wonder how The Crow would sound with Unchained Melody playing in the background...?
Patrick Swayze, Demi Moore, and Whoopi Goldberg star in Ghost.
