christine lahti ( sandy dunlap ) and mary tyler moore ( holly davis ) work well with soapish material and ted danson do his best with a thankless role of chip davis the premise of this that the two lady friendship and one a seemingly happily marry woman and the other a career woman who be aware of her biological clock ticking . i find the relationship that ted danson character have with the single woman play by christine lahti rather sordid . he behave in a caddish way and yet he leave two widow pin over him and bawl . i find it revolt when when sandy tell him she want to break it off after meet his wife and he call her say he miss her ( do he call his wife . there be no sign of that ) . he behave like a heel . it perhaps would have make a more interesting film have he not be kill off . perhaps both lady would have wised up and dump him . i like the friendship between the two lady but it be spoil by what they have in common represent the cad of a husband .
