She's almost all that I've ever disliked in people, from her attitude to her politics... As I watched the episode, I mumbled under my breath at her all the way from the time we learn of her history to the end... She was totally unlikeable. To me, she was the actress whose name I refuse to ever say again.
Because of her, I voted 4.0, the worst show of the series. To beat out a couple of the others, it took someone like her. I absolutely never liked "Ms." Jones or the Cassie characters, but at least they had some redeeming qualities...
Hehe! Ah, but we must remember that her character was supposed to be unlikeable, especially to Magnum. This, in turn, made nearly every scene with her and Magnum pretty darn funny. Just the look on Magnum's face in half of his interactions with her was priceless. You could almost read his mind as he was thinking to himself, "Jesus, why in the world was I with this chick in High School??"
Still though, as unlikeable and annoying as she was, her heart was in the right place. It's a noble endeavor to devout your life to saving animals. And really, no dolphin should ever suffer the indignity and downright cruelty of having a bomb strapped to its back!
Worst episode of the series? Come on, you know you laughed your ass off when Magnum says, "Yes, I remember. You felt that football was uncivilized, that it encouraged students to acts of violence, rather than rational, intellectual discussions. So, at halftime, during the Homecoming game, you... burned down the goalposts." That alone should elevate it from the bottom of the barrel.
