Character mistake: The undercover cop who first mistook Chrissy for a hooker, first admits he was wrong about the way he judged her. Then upon finding out that Jack lived with her and Janet, he came on to her instantly thinking she's "easy" once again. However, the cop was already informed by Mr. Roper that Jack was gay at this point, so the fact that a "gay" man living with women should not have changed the cop's mind of how to view Chrissy the way he did.

Answer: Mr. Roper was basically comparing Mrs. Roper to a cow, which is a sacred and highly revered animal among Hindus; Mrs. Roper's retort meant that she wasn't happy with her marriage or current station in life, so she'd be happier as a cow in India.
