Corrected entry: The name of the horse, "Anchors Ahoy," is meaningless and silly. The term, "anchor's aweigh," is short for "the anchor is aweigh," meaning the anchor has been pulled free of the bottom. However, "ahoy" is a hailing call, used to attract the attention of another vessel or, perhaps, a person, and requires an answer. (It's kind of like saying, "Hey, you!") Since anchors are inanimate objects, they can neither hear nor respond to the call.
Murder, She Wrote (1984)
1 corrected entry in season 2
Audio problem: When singing "Goodbye little yellow bird" Emma blows a kiss to Oliver offstage, but she is still singing the song when she is blowing the kiss. Although it's possible she was pretending as it was part of the act, her voice wasn't even muffled by her hand.
Trivia: This is the only episode in the entire series where the victim is attacked but is later revealed to be still alive.
Question: Why did Lane Henderson (Louise's father) murder his wife?
Answer: In a flashback scene, it was shown that he had a violent temper, so it stands to reason that he finally killed her in a fit of rage.
Correction: It's the name of a horse! Registered purebred horses have all sorts of odd, silly, meaningless names that are personal to the owner. The names don't have to make sense. Also, two registered horses cannot have the exact same name, so it could be argued that the name "Anchors Aweigh" was already taken and this was an alternative choice. Additionally, some registered horses have names that are a variation of their sire or grandsire's name. "Anchors Ahoy" could be related to another horse named "Anchors Aweigh."
