Lilimae Clements (maiden name Patrick) is a fictional character from the long-running CBS soap opera, Knots Landing.

[1] In an interview with Jerry Buck of the Orlando Sentinel, Julie Harris said that she joined the show on advice from her agent, Ed Bondy.

[2] Before her first appearance, a teenage Lilimae meets and marries a much older man named Jeremiah Clements (Don "Red" Barry) in Shula, Tennessee (a fictional community in real-life Johnson County).

Valene is pursued by oil tycoon J.R. Ewing (Larry Hagman), who wants to take her baby, Lucy, but Lilimae refuses to let her in, saying that if the producer discovers that she is a grandmother, her career will be ruined.

The next day, Lilimae is arrested for shoplifting, but the judge says he'll give her a slide with six months probation if Val and Gary assume responsibility for her.

In season four, Lilimae befriends Chip Roberts (Michael Sabatino), who is handling the advertising campaign for Val's book Capricorn Crude, a loosely based narrative of the Ewing family.

She soon learns that Chip murdered a popular singer, Ciji Dunne (Lisa Hartman-Black), and has been fooling the entire cul-de-sac into believing his lies.

In season nine, she meets Al Baker (Red Buttons), an acquaintance of neighbor Mack MacKenzie (Kevin Dobson).

He said: "In a television landscape littered with pretty young things being adolescently silly, a Julie Harris performance can be thoroughly invigorating.
