Yup, it was as I thought.

Our friend "Michael" the MPI crew member has revealed the identity of this uncredited actress. Her name is Shirley Rodgers. She was an extra on the show for many years. Several crew members suggested her name when they were looking to cast this part. :)

Interesting!! Checking her on IMDB shows her ONLY in one credited role with MPI, in 1.15 "Don't Say Goodbye." Can we get a screenie of her in that episode ("Denise, Eunice's sister" and "Eunice" was Fat Jack's daugher [so wouldn't Denise be Fat Jack's daughter too??])? I wonder what other episodes she was in, apparently again uncredited, because Michael, as I understood it from him, was not with the show when "Three Minus Two" was shot. He came sometime in 1983, at least after "Ki'is Don't Lie," because, remember, I asked him about the statuette from that episode and he said that episode was shot before he joined the crew.

Yup, and I thought that Denise was Eunice's cousin....

I was just going by the listing on imdb. It could be wrong with the characters of the cast.
Wallace W. Landford ... Fat Jack (as Wally Landford)
Kanani Choy ... Eunice - Fat Jack's Daughter
...
Shirley Rogers ... Denise, Eunice's Sister

I MAY be wrong, and will have to watch the ep again, but I could have sworn that she said she was Eunice's cousin.

Oh well, a week off of work so I'm sure I can squeeze it in!
