[QUOTE="Daniel Avery, post: 137552, member: 27"] 1. Greg's one-sided (to us, anyway) phone call on episode 199 ("Flight of the Sunbirds") of [I]Knots Landing,[/I] which[I] [/I]obviously gave him the news of Laura's death. It was a case where we didn't need to hear the actual words. 2. Anne Matheson has been in [I]Knots Landing[/I] hoping to rekindle her college romance with Mack MacKenzie right under Karen's nose. When it becomes apparent that Mack just isn't that much into Anne these days, she makes a catty phone call to Karen, denouncing Mack and Karen's suburban lives, the Kiss The Cook Aprons, the backyard barbecues, and their dead-end lives on a dead-end street. Little does Anne know Mack is standing right behind her and overhears it all. The jig was officially up, but I actually loved the way Anne dissected things from an outsider's perspective. 3. The phone call KL's Abby got about the placement of the babies. Donna Mills supposedly lobbied the producers to give Abby plausible deniability in the kidnapping of the babies, so little wonder she sold the hell out of Abby's confusion and shock when she figured out what the man was really telling her. 4. KL's Olivia overhearing Greg and Abby discussing the twins' kidnapping. Oh, the good old days of landlines with [I]extensions[/I] that allowed for remote eavesdropping. 5. KL's Karen wanted some answers abut Paige, the mystery woman claiming to be Mack's daughter. In the episode "Gifts," Karen finally got Paige's grandfather on the line, who accused her of being a "sick woman" for asking such questions about his[I] long-dead[/I] granddaughter. Karen thought for sure she had gotten the goods on this "fake". An honorable mention to the crank phone calls that Ginger Ward received in "Constant Companion". Kim Lankford plays "freaked-out" very well in this story, but since it was a series of calls consisting only of a baby crying, it doesn't quite fit the contest. [/QUOTE]
