Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Is anyone watching In Treatment? It's kind of a big time commitment with the half-hour episode on every weekday thing, but after watching the first week I am really liking it. It comes across as a series of two or three person one-acts and each one is absorbing.

I think it means they can't tap his phone.

Alan Sepinwall is saying that the next episode will clear up the mystery of Disappearing Ninja Omar and in a satisfactory way. I certainly hope so.
