Greg Sumner (William Devane) and Abby Fairgate Cunningham Ewing Sumner (Donna Mills)

Two of my idols. Seriously. I've even been known to steal dialogue. Anne Mathison (Michelle Phillips) is a fucking riot, too. Smart, scheming, unspeakably sharp-witted adults who hang up phones with raised eyebrows and devilish smirks, knowing they've just set in motion plots that will benefit them. Abby in a trenchcoat and pumps at night, ripping things out of a businessman's car's engine to ensure he'll need her lift back to his hotel. Abby used to toil in her brother's car shop in the early 80s, you know. She ain't afraid to get her hands dirty. And she always gets her way. Sumner...cool, aloof, intolerant of stupidity. Ah, I love it. This is the life I want to live...acquiring wealth and property, while dismissing detractors with a self-satisfied smile and scathing bon mot.
