This movie is based on fact

he's a mustache twirling villain, a cliché.
Because the concept required it
Schitt's Creek is the remake
"she really was a member of the family as opposed to being just a servant" so true and George knew before he got married
I find Helen the least attractive physically and mentally of Andy's girls. Peggy was the best catch: stunningly beautiful, sassy, sophisticated, and had rich daddy.
Ellie was the best match, tho.
For kicks, I like to imagine behind the scenes/off camera situations for TV shows. For example, why did Gilligan always ruin attempts to leave the island? He was banging a movie star, a hot Kansas farm girl, and a millionaire. He surely wasn't doing that in Honolulu. On the island he was close to his sexual prime. His competition was the fat, not-to-bright skipper, a nerd who suffered from pre-mature ejaculation, and an old, impotent man. Why would he want to leave?
As for Helen, she was no angel and the show was wrapped the morals of the 50's even tho it was a 60s/70s show.
Helen may have been hanging out with the Kansas City mob to write story, but mobsters don't hang out with choir girls and virgins. Without getting specific , she was probably more of a fun girl, than the fun girls. That little adventure obviously killed any hopes of a journalistic career, so she moved to the middle of nowhere hoping her past would never come up. When it did, she and Andy spun it to fit the morals of the show's universe. No one in town wanted to believe a leading citizen and the sheriff's squeeze was a party girl, so they went with the story they wanted to believe.
