When she calls the other party "Mrs Ewing", there's a pause while something is said at the other end and she amends her response to "Miss... Ellie" before giving a self-satisfied look.It's a nice little character moment that effectively shows status seeker Abby ingratiating herself deeper into Gary's world and edging Valene out by winning over - or at least becoming visible to - her future mother-in-law. But it's also one of those scenes that highlights Ellie's physical absence and gets the fanfic fantasist in me really wishing BBG had been up for Ellie visiting California once or twice.</blockquote>
