An affinity


I have an affinity for seeing refined characters, in fiction or in reality, handle tough situations. Everything they do is handled with such poise and grace that it makes me yearn to see how they react when the they are put under the fire. I was recently reminded of such a situation on an episode of The Cosby Show. The episode revolves around Vanessa's rebellious nature as she ventures with her friends down to Baltimore to see the fictional band, The Wretched. Her lie about staying over a friend's house is over turned when the news breaks that the house caught fire. Worried and panicked, Claire converges with the other parents and finds out where her daughter and the other girls have been. Oh yea, the car that the girls were using was stolen when they made a pit stop in Wilmington, DE. This is definitely my favorite scene of the series. I can't embed the link, so just click here for part 1 and here for part 2. (or you can navigate the dialog box to the right of the first scene.
