Then why is that boy trying to act like a man trying to crack onto girls then??

Men don't crack onto girls, they crack onto women ;) Children have crushes on people too

Why is Donna limping?

In Dec '94, a Wall-mounted bed fell on Nicola's foot and she was clearly still recovering at this point (these scenes were most likely shot near time).  She'd probably only just got off crutches.

Yeah i wondered that to. I thought I was seeing things. It did look funny when she was at Fisher's house and she was just limping.

Caught upto 1620 (Been out of the mix, busy as hell, Family/Work crap), so I'm a bit behind.

So, Jack has effectively pimped Shannon out for Steroids (though she didn't make it difficult). Redeemed only slighty by the "WTFHID" realisation at the end of the ep.

The Murder Mystery Party was hilarious. Forgot how much FUN this show was.That blood-curdling scream backed with Alf's "Strike me pink!" worked. Irene, Angel, Shane and Damo were the MOST into it. Alf not letting us forget he was in 'Nam. ("I spent the first twenty years of me life in Australia!")

Farewell Damo for... Another 2 months!

In Eric's defence, That nameless extra whose thigh he was massaging. was kind of nice looking   Still, he's a bellend and his days in the bay are numbered.

I remember Jack and Curtis ambushing Nelson, and for some reason I was like "Get him!" (first go-around as a kid) until I understood WHY he did it.

Has anyone noticed the mysterious door in the Diner that will later lead to the beauty salon has popped up a few times this week? Each time it has appeared it's been gone again in the following Diner scene. Weird!

[Natasha]

If they all knew Jack had a crush on Donna, then why did they let her move in? Didn't they know it will create problems? Talk about an unnecessary plot device. Its lazy writing to create drama that's not needed. If Jack doesn't stop behaving so immature he'll never be my favourite.

[KittCatt]

One thing that continues to annoy me is the predictability of these storylines. As you said Natasha, Donna moving in created unnecessary drama and Jack continues to be immature. Why Curtis goes along with his antics i don't know...

The house-sitter Alf and Alsa have had turn up on their doorstep in today's episode (1638). The one who calls herself Mary.

Isn't that Nola McKenzie? The woman who ran away from WA to escape the hangman, killed Paddy Lawson to get herself put in Wentworth for life instead of serving her sentence in WA? Bee branded her with a soldering iron. "K" for Killer. Wormed her way to the top position, teaming up with the Freak who helped her with her drug rackets. Bee took her stash to finance her escape, eventually being found in Sydney. Nola tortured Bee, and for that, Bee shot her with her own zip gun she and the Freak made hoping Bee would use it to commit suicide. Now Bee had a new sentence for a new murder charge hanging over her head for McKenzie's death. The last we heard of this was in Episode 372 when Bee was committed to stand trial. We never heard the outcome of that trial by the time Bee was transferred. Instead there was a mention by judge Sarah the scarer at Birdsworth's parole hearing as an accessory to McKenzie's murder.

She did fall dead from the zip gun didn't she?

Nola McKenzie. Back from the dead, calling herself "Mary". We're not fools!

You tell us, you know Prisoner better than most of us!  Your Avatar is Ray twirling a pistol during his time on the show, after all.

Incidentally, I believe she's the last straw that results in Alf-less Three months in the next several weeks.
