:yeshrug:The director probably didn’t tell Will and Carlton. That ol girl was going to push Carlton. Some directors do that to get real reactions from the actors. The most famous ones are from Alien and Die Hard.
yea, that makes sense

the way it's written is clearly a setup for her reacting :dead:

Lol at people thinking everything actors do is written in the script line for line. There is room for adlib and improv. and fukkups that they just keep in the final product. They probably expected her to push him, but not slam him into the lockers. Larenz tate reaction did not seem scripted at all.

A real reaction would be him no longer being "Carlton" and confronting that as Alfonso. Ability to improv and not lose focus is part of an actor's toolset. It is still not real.

A sign of an actor who is excellent at their craft. I was in an improv thing once, directed by professionals whose work you know. We learned soooo much.

One of the reasons people love the Golden Girls so much to this very day is that they came up in the old days where you really had be nice at it, three shows a day type shyt.
