When Frank visits Gregory Van Orner, he’s greeted by Tamar Yingling, Vivian’s secretary at Rahab’s Daughter. What did you make of her physical transformation when she comes back to escort him to see Gregory?

I assumed she was trying to win Van Orner over now that his wife was gone.

I actually thought they already had something going on and now she no longer had to cover up her femininity and sexuality. It must have been dramatic because Frank seemed gobsmacked!

I agree, Jonetta. Where did the attractive clothing come from? She must have had a lot of privacy to hide well-fitting clothes in that house before the murder. I thought she was the murderer for quite some time.

That's a good point, Charlene.
That and the ease with which she steered Gregory, show how much power and trust she had in that household.

I also thought she was trying to seduce Gregory to improve her position in the house. I never thought she had been his mistress before Amy until it was revealed.

Gregory is such a scum bag!

Oh, that he was.
