 Fatal Attraction (Special Collector's Edition)

"Yeah, uh....here's the thing about that. There's close and then there's Glenn Close."- Susan on last night's "Desperate Housewives"...


Poor Susan. She needs a new kidney and the only viable candidate so far is a man who's carried a twenty five year torch for her...ever since high school. He still keeps an old binder full of lots of rather personal photos of her in various poses from freshman to senior year.

It's a far creepier thing than Susan seems to realize; unless, of course, she just really wants that kidney and is hoping her former classmate is just a very friendly guy who just happens to want to move in next door.

The quote is instantly clear if you've ever seen a mean little film called "Fatal Attraction." But the way Teri Hatcher (having finally ditched Susan's goofy, over-the-top-in-trouble persona and gone for one with more compassion and maturity) said made it especially memorable.
