Recall that In this episode, Al moves out into that "fixer-upper" of a place. First, was there any 'fore-story' to this move? It seems like it just happened with no warning.
Then as suddenly as Al moved, he was back home by S3, or after a jaunt to Africa, anyway.
So what happened to the house? It made one more appearance in "On the Edge", when Pauline was over for spaghetti dinner, but it apparently disappeared after S2. Did I miss some dialogue about the fate of this house, or was it all just another case of the Portwenn Effect?
Sorry for the trip back in time. I was just curious about this little detail.

I just thought the ramshackle house was just a rental...with the option of being a fix me up. Because it really didn't affect the general plot of the story I think the fact that it existed just went by the bye (had to look up the correct spelling for that one). So, "Portwenn Effect" for all intents and purposes. Does anyone have a better explanation?
