It will happen in the next episode. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite2" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=";)" />Glad you enjoyed the restaurant scene. Yeah I think it's pretty obvious that Becky doesn't want Mario and his family to become her family. Only Afton is too blind to see it right now... <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite3" alt=":(" title="Frown    :(" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":(" />Okay so here's tonight's update: The next day at the Dallas memorial hospital, Miss Ellie walked into Doctor Haynes office.  “Excuse me Doctor Haynes, have you got a minute?”“Sure, ma’am,” Doctor Haynes smiled at the sweet little lady in front of him. “Sit down please,” he motioned towards one of the chairs on the other side of the desk. Miss Ellie sat down and the doctor said, “So what can I do for you Mrs…?”“Ellie Ewing Farlow,” Miss Ellie replied. Crap, Doctor Haynes shifted uncomfortably, as he was not too happy to be talking to JR Ewing’s mother.“I’m gonna get straight to the point. Why have you told my husband Clayton to work out?”“Um…that’s really between me and my patient.”Miss Ellie looked sternly at Doctor Haynes, “Don’t you know that he has had two heart attacks and his cardiologist has told him not to work out?”Doctor Haynes avoided meeting her gaze, “I’m sorry Mrs. Farlow but I’m quite busy today. Would you mind coming back another day?”“Yes I would. I’m worried about my husband. I love Clayton very much and I’m not gonna stand by while he drives himself to another heart-attack,” Miss Ellie said in one of her firmest voices. “If you won’t answer my questions I will simply have to disturb Doctor LeClaire on his vacation…”“Um…that’s not necessary,” Haynes said in a strained tone of voice.“So?” Miss Ellie demanded.“Let me check his journal…” Doctor Haynes turned to his computer and did a quick search. Then he started reading through Clayton’s medical records, “Oh…that is not good.”“What?” Miss Ellie demanded to know.The doctor scratched his head saying, “I’m terribly sorry to say there’s been a mix up in our files…”“What do you mean?”“The computer has mixed your husband’s file with another patient’s…”“You’ve mixed up the files?” Miss Ellie exclaimed. “Don’t you know what dreadful consequences that could get?” Miss Ellie lectured the doctor. “You could have killed someone!”“Yes,” Doctor Haynes harked. “It’s very serious. We’ll have to report this to technical department immediately. This is so what happens when you computerize everything!”“Well you’d better keep better track of the files, or I’ll sue this hospital!”“Calm down ma’am. We’ll fix this immediately. You are completely right. Your husband shouldn’t be working out!”“Yes I know that and you know that. But Clayton doesn’t know that so now you get on that phone and tell him to stop working out immediately!”“Of course I will,” Doctor Haynes said sheepishly. “I’m really sorry about this ma’am.”“I surely hope so and I’ll let this slip this time. But I warn you, if you ever mistreat anyone in my family again, I will report you to the medical professions office for breach of duty,” Miss Ellie threatened. “Good day,” with that Miss Ellie walked out of the office leaving a very nervous Doctor Haynes behind.</blockquote>
