Soap: Episode 41

This is one of the better Harris & Silver episodes, since it doesn't really have any weak scenes.  It starts with the Campbell & Dallas men drinking to forget their losses-- of wives, lovers, and Bob's suede jacket.  Even the Dutch & Eunice scene, with him being caught by the police, isn't bad.  Meanwhile, Tim leaves Corinne to go live in a cave and make peace with God, and not long after this, Corinne goes into labor, in her sixth week!  Note that Billy is somehow still 15, although his birthday is supposed to be in October.  (There is no way to explain this with any timeline.)  This is also the episode where Jodie meets a lesbian, Alice (Randee Heller in her first of nine appearances), and talks her out of suicide.

Chester is absent and no one seems to be grieving him, if they ever did.
