I agree with you totally, but think using the term “CLOWN” is a disservice to Clowns! Lurch is nothing more than a Raging Lunatic and MORON who is a TRAITOR to AMERICA with absolutely No Morals or Redeeming Character!! In esssence, Lurch is a Slimeball and a Male(Alleged?)WHORE!! and that is being polite.......
As you indicated it just may be the case where she cut him out of the will. And yes I was being a bit dis-repectful to clowns.
