Sally was 10 years old in 1975, the year Alice adopted her, so Alice would have been 29-ish. In 1984, a 38-year-old Courtney did not look so young that her being Sally's adopted mother seemed too blatantly ridiculous. Certainly, on-screen age discrepancies between other parent-offspring combinations on soaps have been much more noticeably egregious.
Yes, she was wearing what I call a Humphrey-Bogart style private-eye hat, LOL.
As time went on, Alice had her short hair flattened down with what looked like Dippity-Do at times. And what was that butch-looking, plaid lumberjack coat they had her wearing at one point?
It was as if some PTB were trying to sabotage the actress' return by giving her no story, no purpose on the show, and making her look dreadful.
