YMMV / All In The Family S 8 E 3 Ediths Fiftieth Birthday

• Catharsis Factor: Edith successfully fending off Lambert is very satisfying to watch after several minutes of tension building. There's a reason the live studio audience erupted with cheers and howling at the sight.
• Complete Monster: Lambert is a Serial Rapist who intends to make Edith his latest victim. Charming his way into the Bunker house by posing as a detective, Lambert attempts to force himself onto Edith while holding her at gunpoint. When Archie unexpectedly shows up, Lambert hides in the closet after instructing Edith to get rid of him, threatening to kill the both of them if she alerts Archie to his presence. Edith tries to get help by screaming, but Lambert taunts her by implying that screaming hadn't helped his past victims. While Edith escapes the encounter unharmed, the usually happy-go-lucky Edith is left traumatized and terrified of everything for weeks after, and her unwillingness to go to the police out of fear allows Lambert to rape yet another woman.
