[QUOTE="Julia's Gun, post: 90983, member: 987"] I always thought this was a deliberate nod to the Knots audience (and snub) to Dallas' dream season. I remember the brief shock and horror seeing Val do a swooning Karen (but this time with visible bullet wounds), and then the relief and an oh! I get it moment. It was like the writers saying - we don't mess with our viewers for a whole season, we can do it in 5 seconds. It's kind of symbolic of the break with Dallas that occurred around this time, with Knots deciding to leave Bobby dead to maintain its own credibility and marking the break for good from their so-called big brother, who wasn't so big anymore.
