That's just HIS straight-forward, clear-cut, direct reply to her flirting. See? Each party knows where the other stands. Quick,painless, and productive!

Quick and productive, yes. Those nails digging into his bicep looks like it might be kinda painful though...

I agree........ This Joseph may be a little too buff to play in Andrew Lloyd Webber's production. Although, the women seem to have really liked the weenie from Utah that they ended up with.

Potiphar's wife showing obvious interest, Joseph contemplates his options...
"I've got this whole goodly, well favoured person rep to maintain...but man she IS pretty hot - the way she casts her eyes upon me. Should I hearken unto her? Maybe just one little lie? Dahh, what to do??? I guess I'll flee."

Potiphar demonstrates the wrong way to take rejection, with physical force. Can you imagine if Lane took it the same way?

I get the impression that Potiphar's wife is a little jealous of the clothing that Joseph has. She just wants his pretty robe and collar like thingy. I know that I would be embarrassed if I had to wear a collar like that around.

Well, I believe in the soul, the celmo, the pelmo, the small of a woman's back, the hanging curve ball, high fiber, good scotch, that the novels of Susan Sontag are self-indulgent, overrated crap. I believe Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. I believe there ought to be a constitutional amendment outlawing Astroturf and the designated hitter. I believe in the sweet spot, **************, opening your presents Christmas morning rather than Christmas Eve and I believe in long, slow, deep, soft, wet kisses that last three days. Goodnite
