But let's face it, it wasn't much of a surprise. Karen had a hunch before - the moment the beans were spilled about Dorothy's issues with Everett's mom, Kenneth was bound to see it as his golden ticket.

“Karen, what do you reckon I should do?” Dorothy was at her wit's end with Kenneth.

She had said her piece and turned him down flat more than once. She couldn't just burn bridges and leave him with zilch dignity.

I've got your back. They're not pinning this on you! Kenneth’s the one who's been doggedly persistent. It's not like you led him on or anything.” If Dorothy took the fall for this, she'd be so wronged.
