Come Home, Little Eva

Warning: Spoilers
**SPOILERS** Most assuredly. This is a story about a husband who loves his wife, has a screenplay that isn't selling, she loves the rich life while he toils unpraised and unsung. Sound familiar? Oh, yeah, there's just a couple of small details; to wit: she's a money grubbing (four letter word beginning with s, ending with t) who is cheating on him so she can get the foundation laid for blackmail. Also, she wants to have her expensive jewelry stolen so she can get the insurance dough (and then get back the gems). She wants to involve Spencer in the turmoil, he's resistant, but.....

The girl (Kathleen Crowley) is beautiful. she looks and sounds a lot like Eva Gabor (she's the sister who's likable, and a pretty good actress). The guys she is setting up for her coercion get wind, get together, and the crap hits the fan.

Now, I swear to the Lord above, I thought it actually was Eva; I mean it, she was that good, and I like Eva. she's the best reason for watching this episode. The other "tough guys" are exposed eventually by Spencer, and he solves the problem. They are a truly motley crew. Good looking male furniture. In the end, she's trying to coax Kookie (in the show, it's pronounced "cookie" by the way) so, her Huz still has a problem.Good acting, pretty fair plot, watch it if you can.
