They are 84 and 79, respectively. That's insane. They look amazing

More and more like The Love Boat every week.

The Captain was probably thinking "She's freakin' pregnant?  Where are those orcas when you need one?"

Not a bad thing considering the run they had.

That could help...

I was only half-awake when I watched this. Did Max really get COVID again, or was he just faking it because the Captain told him to find a solution for enforcing  quarantine that Donna Mills would accept graciously?

I don't think it was fake since he was also neglecting his medical duties.

Dammit show, you are supposed to be crazy and funny and stupid.  You are not supposed to have me bawling my eyes out over the 'waiting for the train' conversation.

(in my defense, Mother's Day is this weekend and my own mother got on her train 26 years ago, so I'm a bit raw)

[Madding crowd]

This was a depressing episode. I expected fun cougars chasing after the younger men instead we got COVID and cancer. Donna Mills looks amazing for 83 years old and Jaclyn Smith looks great too. I don’t know how old Shania Twain is supposed to be but her real age is 59, so too old to be pregnant.

In the truth is stranger than fiction category a story, even Doctor Odyssey fiction hit another message board I frequent today

search page on Alexandra Hildebrandt

At 66 years Ms. Hildebrandt just gave birth to a son. She has had eight children since her 53rd birthday and says having a big family benefits all her offspring.

Yes, there are always oddities in the world and somehow they all land on this ship!

I have a question for the "Sophisticated Ladies", what was that cloth Heather pulls out with the blood on it, why was it there, and how could she pull it out faster than a magician pulls a hankie from his sleeve? "Enquiring minds want to know".

I laughed at the Captain talking about wanting to be there for his child.  Presuming the Captain is close in age to Don Johnson, I was just thinking the kid will be lucky if his father lives to see him graduate high school.  

I did think it strange during a cruise supposedly about cougars, they chose to focus on two women either in their 80s, or close to it.

I had to laugh when they said we don't say cougar anymore and then the camera shifted to an ice sculpture of a puma.
