Message: <blockquote data-quote="Daniel Avery" data-source="post: 406589" data-attributes="member: 27">I had seen the "aging playboy" fight scene previously, but this clip provides a lot more of the necessary build-up that makes their lost tempers make a lot more sense.  Lemay was really good at build-up like that---knowing that having characters just randomly getting mad and having a fight was not satisfying in a long scene format like this.  And yes, the longer scenes!  I so wish soaps would do longer scenes like that today. I'd forgotten Ted Bancroft entirely.  He sure has Iris's number in this clip.  And once again I go into a scene wanting to rip Aunt Liz a new one, only to end up feeling so terrible for her.  Irene Dailey was a treasure.</blockquote>
