ita, I'm a bit confuzzled about NCIS, too. I think I have to go back and watch the beginning again. When Vance went into Tara's room, she looked at him in surprise and said "Teak? Is that you?" Which would be the initials of her brother, Tyler Keith, who is already dead at this point. I'm thinking Vance and his buddy Tyler switched places at some time. Why, I'm not sure, but it's the only explanation I have for dead Tyler having the eye surgery.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Sail, that's my current thinking.

So Vance and Tyler were the same age? I came in halfway and didn't see much of the set-up. I wonder if this ties in with Gibbs' saying "I thought I could always spot a Marine" when Vance's wife told about Vance's military career.

I love that Charlie is looking suspiciously at a photo of Dani and Rayborn, and that Dani is looking suspiciously at a photo of Charlie and Rayborn.

So I'm watching Lie To Me, and they've cast this guy. Am I ever supposed to believe a word he says? And he's a spouse of a lead? Bodes ill. But maybe I read that wrong.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

He's not the spouse of the main woman, if that's what you're asking. Her husband is Tim Guinee.

Okay, cool. That at least leaves his status as a bit more vague. Even though they've so far painted him as bad, I always want Guinee to be a good guy.

I figured, I dismissed, and then, blammo!

I wasn't sure if it was him. I met him once when I was a kid, when he was famous :)

I do want to know how the police didn't figure out that the wounds were self inflicted.

Heh. It seems to be him, with the skank, every time these days.

Life: Gabrielle Union is a good interim partner. Best I've liked her. Question--where did that bullet Crews is asking about come from? They space out the arc bits too much for me.

eta:

While I'm here, did anyone find Jane noxious this past Mentalist? I thought both now and the flashbacks portrayed him very unforgivingly. I didn't like the ep, for the sum of it.
