- Alternative Character Interpretation: Laura is remarkably oblivious to the signs that somethintg is off about Mary as she starts losing her sight. Was her perception clouded by her jealousy of Mary with Seth, or was she using Selective Obliviousness to keep her angry at her sister? Or was she in denial that there might be something wrong with her sister?
- Narm Charm: Mary's screaming that she can't see, while her father hugs her and her mother sheds Broken Tears downstairs. Melodramatic? Yes. Overacted? You bet. One of the most heartbreaking moments in the series according to most fans? Definitely.
- Signature Scene: Mary crying and yelling in Charles's arms, "I can see, Pa! I can't see!"
