Lindsay is born Lindsay Farrell off-screen to a stern and disapproving father, Dennis Farrell, who doted on her younger sister Melanie or "Lanie", while shunning Lindsay. Even after Lindsay falls in love and marries hotshot lawyer Sam Rappaport (Kale Browne) and raises his two children, Lindsay is disappointed and angered when Sam's falls out of love with her and in love with Nora Hanen (Hillary B. Smith). A series of desperate affairs followed for Lindsay, including one with brother-in-law Colin MacIver, and the loveless marriage of Sam and Lindsay finally ended as their two children reached adulthood.
