Throg:
Actually I thought the whole subtle Dora / control / jealousy dynamic might've been mirrored. Faye just does what she does, Dora feels the need to control, but also maybe subconsciously to compete -- then Faye gets a hug and a warm goodbye, and Dora opens her arms for a hug, even though she didn't really show much warmth of her own to Sam -- and gets rejected.  It's the whole it-all-comes-so-easy-to-Sven dynamic that Dora gets from her brother. 

I dunno why people harsh on Dora, though. She's not evil -- she just has her own issues to work through.

Brian Blessed as King Henry 8.0.  (look it up on YouTube).

Or close up the wall with our multicultural dead,
In QC, there's nothing so becomes a maid
As a white tank top;
But when the blast of Indie Music blows in our ears,
 Then imitate the action of the [eye of the] tiger;
 Stiffen the sinews, summon up the blood,
 Disguise fair nature with hard-to get to know barriers;
 Then lend the eye a terrible prescription;
 Let pry through the portage of the head
 ...
 On, on, you noblest North Hamptonites.
 Whose blood is fet from fathers of 90-proof!
 Fathers that, like so many Alexanders,
 Have in these parts from morn till even sought
 And found their bars for lack of argument:
 Dishonour not your mothers; now attest
 That those whom you call'd fathers did beget you.
 Be copy now to men of grosser blood,
 And teach them how to file library books. And you, good barrista,
 Whose limbs were made in Georgia, show us here
 The mettle of your pasture; let us swear
 That you are worth your breeding; which I doubt not;
 For there is none of you so mean and base,
 That hath not noble lust in your eyes.
 I see you stand like greyhounds in the slips,
 Straining upon the start. The game's afoot:
 Follow your spirit, and upon this charge
 Cry 'God for Dora, Coffee of Doom, and Pintsize!'

She's too young for the Vulcan Boob Squish to work but she is still subconsciously drawn to them.

Maybe the jealousy Dora's feeling is actually because she wasn't the one with a face full of boob.

Is it cold in here?:
Dora could have vetoed hazardous activities on her property without necessarily being a control freak. She is, after all, the one a lawsuit would target.

jon3831:
Brian Blessed voicing Pintsize?

Faye would totally use him to send messages to her enemies...


"What to us, from the barista?"

"Scorn and defiance, slight regard, contempt,
and any thing that may not misbecome
the pretty sender..."
