Not YMMV. Moving.

unfortunate implications need citations.

** FridgeHorror: If she had sold the house in Agrestic back in 2005-06 when real estate was high, she'd have been ''at least'' free and clear with enough for a halfway decent place elsewhere, if not a nice nest egg on top of that...
** In season 6, Shane and Silas note how important, no matter the dire situation of their family, Nancy's designer shoes are to her. Granted, she later trades a pair for an important connection later on...

* JerkassWoobie: Celia. Yes, she is, by her own admission a bitch, but you have to feel sorry for someone that just about no-one on the show aside from Nacncy (''kind of'') likes. Her own daughter was going to break her up and sell her for parts and no-one was willing to put up the money to prevent it. No-one. There are other times too, like her period in prison when it was made fairly clear that she was another inmates unwilling "girlfriend". Admittedly doesn't happen often but it does happen.
