Billie Bird as Irene
Irene may not have been the star of the movie, but boy, did she make an impact! She’s the quirky spouse of Ed who ends up bargaining with Kate McCallister, and fans can’t get enough of her one-of-a-kind charm. She was one of the supporting characters who still grabbed headlines.
Flashback to the 1990s, at a time when swapping air tickets was quite easy. Our beloved Irene and her hubby Ed find themselves haggling with Kate McCallister, the desperate mom. She offers them two first-class tickets to Dallas in exchange for earrings and a translator. Now, that’s what you call high-stakes bartering—1990s style.
