Pilot Episode - Opie


Does anyone notice in the first episode that Donna calls Opie "Hank"? It is when she is telling him they are 3 months behind on the car and she needs to lock it up so it doesn't get repoed while she is at work. I've listened to it twice and even had captions on.

Strange. Is Opie his real name or a nickname? Maybe Hank is his official birth certificate name.

reply

His real name was Harry Winston. So not sure why she says Hank.

reply

Both Hank and Harry are pet forms of Henry

Thats possible, but it would be strange for her to call him that once and it never get mentioned again.

Maybe they figured that it might be confusing to have multiple names for individual characters in a show that has a decently large number of characters already.
