  My favorite part of The Parent Trap is when the evil step-mother-to-be Vicky asks Hailey Mills and Hailey Mills if they share everything, and they say they do, and then she says “Well you give your sister her half of this,” and then slaps them across the face. I’d feel bad about liking that scene, [...]
