The evil Bat sisters….

But Connie Gale IS the granddaughter.

Good morning margueritem, uh interesting avtar you have this moring. Is it by chance the late Ernie Kovacks? Oh and do the “Evils Bat sisters in an “Evil Bat Cave”?

wndrwrthg, you could be right. Then she’ll be rich in her own right, and will leave Ollie alone!

Where’s my little niece Leaky? Out gambling again?

‘Morning, LordD! Yes, it is Ernie Kovacs.

It can’t be Connie, because his granddaughter’s name is mmmrrmm snbffrrmr. But maybe Connie Gale is just a stage name.

I thought he said “You’re standing on my oxygen tube…”

“Watch out Connie, those two old maids are up to no good!”

I predict that Connie is the granddaughter, but that the two ladies will swindle her out of her inheritance anyway, and Connie will continue to pursue Ollie.

I think there is a valid place for “gold-digging”. Consider Abishag (I Kings 1). Some criterion would be: 1) Prospect is truly old (Ollie doesn’t qualify) 2) Genuine fondness for the person (actual romance not necessary), so that you are a true comfort in his old age 3) Prospect is rich enough that you are provided for for life - even if you don’t find a romance with a younger partner (after your rich sugar daddy dies).

Morning, Anniephans!

I still think the one on the right looks like Miss Grundy.
