Oh, speaking of Lamb, I thought of one other thing I liked about the episode. It's the part where he gets all frustrated with Veronica and tells her that he should have just arrested her and Duncan when he busted them at the Mannings' house, and then he wouldn't have to deal with Celeste Kane freaking out over the kidnapping/Duncan's disappearance.
I think that really captures Lamb's fundamental character, right there. He knows what the right thing to do is, and when push comes to shove he does it, but mostly he just doesn't want to deal with anything complicated.
I did, actually, like how that one interaction really summed up who Lamb is.
I anticipate another "random" locker search.
"Let's see here, Veronica. What? Five pounds of heroin? This is a little awkward."
"I thought they were just statues of the virgin Mary."
Well played, Daniel. Well played.
Can someone remind me of who Astrid is? Where had we seen her before?
she was Celeste's "maid" in My Mother, the Fiend.
She's the Kane housekeeper-type Veronica thought might be Mrs. Kane's illegitimate child.
I realized that the one most unbelivable part of the episode, of which there were many, was that Duncan had the baby in the apartment next door and Keith didn't notice a baby crying in what was supposed to be an empty apartment. That really got me.

I thought they tried to cover that by having Veronica turn her music up really loud in her moping over the "breakup." And, I guess, the assumption that the baby crying after Keith went to sleep wouldn't wake him up, though that's kind of stretching it.
