She steamrollers "the Sean Connery of the Math Department", as she dubs Charlie, and is similarly a whirling dervish through the existence of Larry Fleinhardt, evicting him from his steam tunnel, but working hard to reintegrate him with the community at large. She appears in another eight episodes of Season 3, slowly insinuating herself into the lives of all three of "the Eppes ladies" as she refers to them when looking to get competition for a poker game. As Millie observes of Charlie, "you've made my life a little more difficult, and a lot more interesting", a backhanded compliment he is happy to return.
