*grin* I seem to be getting a lot of support for that idea. Why would have guessed? I really think that this outcome is much more likely, at least at this point in the "game"... but it's hardly over, is it? We'll see what happens. I can think of a number (hmmm, is the number two?) of good reasons that Ophelia/Tank might not be a good idea, but you never know. *wink*

Frances is a nice enough guy, or he's trying anyway, these days (after realizing that money really can't buy happiness). Maybe his loneliness and Tank's loneliness will cancel each other out.
