TRIVIA (4)
ADD TRIVIA
- Hank's favorite pie is mincemeat. This is also mentioned in episode 9.
  EDIT SHARE
- The Metcalf's house number is 1135.
  EDIT SHARE
- Caroline refers to her torn stocking as having a run. In England, they are called ladders--she uses so much British slang, this is unusual.
  EDIT SHARE
- Ginger appears to be Protestant, or, so desparate to marry that she will not wait for Father Dreher to offer Pre-Cana classes to marry Chrarlie. She announces to Linda that she is going to Pastor Swanson for the ceremony. (This could happen--the Church would have to bless the marriage afterward)
