. . . Hilda Engstrom says with her dying breath to a random priest happening by her shot-up corpse-in-ten-seconds, as President Reagan beams approvingly nearby. GIRLS ON PROBATION is another one of Warner Bros.' always prophetic warnings to Americans of the usually far (and often further) future about their upcoming Calamities, Catastrophes, Cataclysms, and Apocalypti. "Hilda" is standing in for Nancy Davis during GIRLS ON PROBATION. Some viewers may mistake Hilda's gun-toting bank robber lover for John Hinckley, but closer examination reveals him to be Reagan's future "loose cannon" rogue operator Oliver North of Iran/Contra infamy. Like Ollie, "Tony" is a serial Evil-Doer. Instead of sending Tom Cruise flying around supplying rifles to Contras (see AMERICAN MADE), Tony arms his fellow prisoners at the state pen with rifles and shotguns during GIRLS ON PROBATION. Just as actress Nancy Davis Reagan missed civics class and felt no qualms about having her astrologer ruling the USA, Hilda managed to play hooky from catechism class so often that she fails to realize that she's about to board the "Down" escalator. At least Warner Bros. tried to warn all of us about our stumbling descent along the Path to Perdition in Real Life with GIRLS ON PROBATION.
