My wicked step sister was both executor and made off with half my father's estate. I'm not bitter anymore, but I have to say I was confused at the time about the line between executor/beneficiary. I'm not sure where I got the impression that the twain should never meet.

So, is Jeri Ryan joining the cast? I liked her well enough but I hope that doesn't mean that Sophie is leaving. I totally guessed that the daughter was the heir in question, but I did not see Jeri as a grifter at all.

Is this where we talk Burn Notice? I just started watching S3 a few weeka ago and had no idea that Fiona was Irish until the Michael McBride episode. Then I watche dthe pilot and she totally sounds Irish there. (Or what passes for Irish on TV.) So, what happened between the pilot and S3?

Between the pilot and the next regular episode, they had Fiona turn the accent way down. Presumably, it was because viewers had trouble understanding her.

Gina Bellman's massively pregnant. I'm quite surprised she was in the last two episodes, even in her much reduced roles.

Me too, though I'm happy. I like the way they've handled it.

I didn't know this until I read it here and had to smile when she turned away from the window and seemed to be pensively fingering her lovely kimono. Much more clever than having her stand behind a potted plant like the soaps do it.

I really liked the kimono moment, I thought it was original and you might not have even noticed if you weren't aware.

This is what I'm saying! Clever.

Plus, it must be a known fashion element that chopsticks in the hair draw the eyes up. Sort of like 'black is slimming'.

I was hoping she'd be listening to The Mikado in the background to reference why she was wearing Asian-wear in London.

The kimono moment was very clever. It was one of the first times I had an I See What You Did There moment; I hadn't really noticed the pregnancy much.

I know! The Numb3rs pregnancy stuff was all "carrying a massive box" methods. I like how they've handled this pregnancy in both narrative and visual senses.

I thought at the very beginning when she (eta: Jeri's char) showed up that there was something off and they should question her and the client separately afterwards. But then I forgot about it until the reveal.

However, I also thought that Nate's announcement of her parentage on the stand, without talking to her, was irresponsible. I don't know how well I would have taken that kind of news in public revelation. Furthermore, it's already been proven that the Bad Lawyer has no qualms about killing the person they thought was the daughter. I think they put her in danger in the duration until the ruling comes down.
