what does what have to do? the fact that the real life charles actually left in the middle of the night -- just like Mrs Oelson said? and she said it as reasoning WHY she was denying him the loan. You can't blame her. and I thought she was a lot nicer than how you say.
they don't know him from adam and here comes in with his cash on the barrel talk but when he is denied he 'UNNASTANS' and storms out in a huff. what? what a GREAT first impression he made!!
I see you had my legitimate response deleted you troll. No matter, you read it and obviously you knew you were wrong but couldn't take it.
For those that didn't see it, I basically pointed out I was talking about the scene in the show vs the real life Charles Ingalls. In the scene, it was completely unnecessary for Harriet to zoom over and join the discussion to tell Charles 'NO' to the credit. Nels was quite capable of it and likely could have turned him down in a way that would have led to a less aggressive departure. After all, she wasn't talking to him during the greeting and welcoming, why was she so eager to be part of denying him some credit? Not that I disagreed with their denying credit based on the circumstances, but it was more or less rude and a slap in the face with her jumping in for that part of the conversation. Would seem that 'deem_bastille' couldn't tell the difference between the show and reality, as he felt the real life Charles skipping out on credit somehow justified the disrespectful manner in which Harriet acted. Obviously, unable to distinguish fantasy from reality.
