I remember hating Duke back then because I saw him as an obsticle between Robert and Anna getting back together.But boy was he very handsome (the original Duke played by Ian Buchanan not the replacement Duke. But Duke was always angry and broody most of the time.
Its the start of the screws being put to Duke, he knows now that the man of Anna dreams is still in her life and finds out he will always be in her heart too.
She probably didn't want to break her surprise. I think Duke pretty much had it figured out when he saw Robin holding hands with this man and he was Australian you could tell from his facial expressions.
@csulastd89 Robin called Robert 'Robbie' before she knew he was her father, and this was just several months before this episode. So it's quite natural for her to have a Fruadian slip once in a while.
Is probably the hair. It went from very short in 85 to long and shaggy blond to short dark hair back to long blond and shaggy. Good looking guy no matter what his hair looked like.
Robin is a stinker doing that set up. They certainly aren't showing her as an angel but she is close to acting as a very normal child. Kim was a natural in this role!

That's weird Robin called her dad, Robbie.
csulastd89 2 years ago
I didn't notice that before her saying "are you surprised Robbie?"
There could be 2 reasons.
1. Robin did it on purpose not to break her so called surprise by calling him Daddy in front of Duke.
2. At this point Robin had probably referred to him as "Robbie" more time then she had called him "Daddy"
Which reason do you think it is?

Robert looks so young in this clip. Even in two years time ('88) his looks changed quite a bit.

Are they eating Italian ice? Great nod to history.
I love that Robert's already suspicious of Duke. He's like a apap bear ready to defend his cub. And ex-wife, but that doesn't really fit the analogy.

These two men are immediate rivals----even if there was nothing for Robbie to be suspicious about....
I like what Robin did...Great way for them to meet /unexpected..with the child monitoring their moves

The introduction of Robert and Duke, a very important scene preceded by a skillful buildup, is scripted, directed and acted very well.
