Deciding that the PC actors need to be tuned into how the viewers feel, Karen is force fed crap. Frank: Now you be a good girl and eat this while I go heat up your Time in a Bottle. "Come on Karen - who's your Daddy? There - that's a good girl!" After months of the drivel they have been given, Marie goes catatonic and must be spoon-fed. Time In A Bottle reduces Karen to infancy. Frank: After one more bite I'll let you have some "Water In A Bottle" I'll loosen the ropes around you hands as soon as you try this new chinese delicacy; stir fried grubs and browned rice. Ummmm, Ummmm good. Obviously Karen doesn't remember that Frank likes eyeballs in his chinese food. Karen is wondering how long Frank has spent with the computer after he repeatedly ignores her claims that she can feed herself. "Here Karen, keep eating. Maybe people will think you've gained weight and we won't have to try to hide your pregnancy anymore. We're running out of things to hide behind." Frank: "Open up. Here comes the airplane." You try it! Karen likes everything! "Crow can be very tasty. This spoonful is for Nellie." In an attempt to kill Karen, Frank feeds her take out from Kelly's that Luke cooked. Frank helps Karen sample the nasty tasting "Time in a Bottle." Proof that Karen will take anything Frank feeds her... Frank: "Here Karen, take this Pepto Bismo. It helps get me through this arc, and hopefully it will help you fight the nausea too." Eat up. You'll need all your strength to finish this idiotic story line. When I said "gag me with a spoon" about this storyline, I meant it as a joke! There, just a couple more spoonfuls of this DL-56 and we'll be all set for the night! Frank and Karen are unaware that the two bottles on the table are filled with TIME Have some Frank n' Beans. In addition to Neil and Christina, Frank discovers he has fathered yet another child: Karen. Somehow these romantic eating scenes just don't work as well with Chinese takeout boxes and plastic flatware. Frank kepts feeding Karen food so she won't have an opportunity to talk about old boyfriends from PCH, Jason and Jagger.
