Apparently, the new way to extend the Who's Your Daddy storyline is to have Red just say "I'm not going to tell you."
I'm getting the sneaking suspicion that the writers haven't made up their minds yet about it.

Did anyone watch Bones last night? A friend from high school played the exercise drill master at the beginning. Not a big role but fun to see him there.
I gave up on Bones a couple seasons ago, but that is neat, Suzi.
I half-watch it anymore. But hey, how often do you get to watch someone from high school panic-strip on national television? That's fun stuff.
Yep!!! I am not a regular Bones watcher, but had to catch the ep when he said he would be in it.
I like to think ita is somewhere where she could have seen tonight's Person of Interest.
So, Sherlock shot up after he beat up Oscar, yes?
Looks that way.
Daaaaaaaang.
I generally like AV Club's reviews and their commenters, because the regular commenters there are fairly civilized and aren't there to troll and fight. So I'm reading the comments on AV Club's review of this episode, and I'm hit SO HARD by how many people are posting variations on "I don't understand why Sherlock would relapse after finding out Alfredo was alive," etc.
HE'S AN ADDICT. This is what they DO. He said it in S1 to Irene (when he still thought she was Irene): he told her about how his "dabbling" with narcotics turned into an addiction after he thought she died, followed by rehab, and she said "You're better now," and he replied "I'm *sober* now. I'll always be an addict."
As with all fiction, our response to it is colored by what we bring to it, so my opinion comes from the fact that I am from a family full of alcoholics. I think this show has done fantastic work with the through-line of Sherlock's addiction, and the daily grinding struggle to stay sober. I can't wait to see how this develops next season.
(And it's kind of crushing to see him relapse, but that's my own issues speaking, and I know that. Plus [spoilers for Arrow] finding out that Quentin is drinking again is also pretty depressing. But realistic.)
