ooh, interesting to know, tiggy. I dislike Duncan (or rather, how he's played--so wooden!), so I'd just as soon he be a large presence on the show without being an...actual...presence. But if he's just written off and not mentioned again until he (in?)conveniently pops up, I'd be all "freakin' sophomore slump!"

Although... Duncan is a big dude--wouldn't Lamb have felt the weight in the trunk?

He could have taken the tire out? Plus those cars are hella heavy anyway.

Umm. I'm not so sure how taken I am by these recent developments. My only hope is that, somehow, come May, Duncan has some role in season-long mysteries.

Meg was on the bus. Duncan was involved. Something else and something else, bam! It all fits together better than it seems to at the moment.

I do hope that Duncan doesn't evaporate from the storylines.

So, I figured out that the fortune was the one from the premiere on the second time through. This is what I get for being proud of being smart.

I do not know: 1) When PI-guy came onboard 2) Whether Mama Kane was involved (I'm leaning toward "no") 3) What Kendall was told

I'm also wondering where Duncan's going and what Astrid and PI-guy's stories are going to be when they get back.

1) When PI-guy came onboard

When Veronica handed him that "Private and Confidental" note.

2) Whether Mama Kane was involved (I'm leaning toward "no")

I missed it, but apparently Vinnie says something like, "You pay better than your mom," so no.

3) What Kendall was told

I think Duncan invited her (as if he were accepting her offer for sex) in order to be caught by Veronica, and thus explain the breakup to her and anyone she would talk to.

I want to be the first to point out the TWOP and Lost shout-outs.

When Veronica handed him that "Private and Confidental" note.

I think earlier. Veronica's interaction with him in Lamb's office seemed to indicate that. I can't quite explain why, but the facial expressions, and the way the weird hand signals were going back and forth, seemed to me like he was already in on it and she was trying to figure out why he was there. Plus, there was something fishy going on with that pen, and he was weirdly specific about saying how he'd have Duncan "72 hours from now."

I missed it, but apparently Vinnie says something like, "You pay better than your mom," so no.

That's why I'm thinking no, along with my reasoning for why I think he was involved earlier. Someone else I was talking to was saying yes, because she's the only way Astrid could have gotten involved, since Duncan isn't living at home anymore and wouldn't have contact with her.

There's also a Cupid shout-out and a me shout-out.

VM looks like it's wandering through a snow storm. Damn Comcast.

Sheriff Lame need commupance badly.
