As much as I would like to say Frankie does have a great singing voice, she sang one line and had nails in her teeth at the time so I don't think we can judge that accurately antgirl. But I digress, I just got done watching it a second time and got a few things cleared up.
For one, I definitely think the song is what convinced everyone to go out and get royally screwed by Little Lincoln. Plus the fact he didn't really specify WHAT they would be doing, he mainly emphasized the aspect of being all that you can be. So it's believable people could get suckered into this.
Plus as we saw Frankie's reaction, no one had any idea they were being sold as opposed to being adopted. Wilt even said he was adopted and not realizing he was working a job. My guess is Moose took care of all the paper work and handled the fees.
Mr. Herriman's "lady" remark will remain funny no matter how many times I see this episode. But there's two things that I debate about now that I think about it. 1- someone said earlier Madame Foster attacking Moose and LL was a sign she already knew they were bad. Somehow I really doubt this.
From what I saw, she attacked them because of Moose's obvious creepy appearance mere seconds after she got knocked down in the middle of the night. As crafty as she is, I don't think she knew they were bad until the end. And 2- I also wonder if LL had this planned from the beginning.
Being stuffed back into a closet is something that obviously pisses him off to high hell. I wonder if he had just thought of taking over the house after being put into another closet, and not really planning this from the beginning. Yes he is a bad guy and a con man, but it seems odd he'd have this scoped out.
I wonder if he was put into a regular bed if he still would have wanted to bump everyone out and take over.
