I'm not a big fan of Tunney's range, but I think she played the breakdown well.

I thought that it was scene chewing. I mean, I get that it was supposed to be over the top, but I was not impressed.

And I totally got that it was the psychiatrist from early on. Not how or why,

I often figure out who the bad guy is because of the fact that they are using an established actor in a "throwaway" role. Christian Clemson is too good for 5 minutes a week as the psychiatrist. At first, I thought that it was going to be an ongoing thing (like Stephen Fry in "Bones"), but the chemistry/vibe wasn't there.

I was unsatisfied that we never got a motive for why he risked everything for this caper. Yes, he got a million dollars, but is that reason to commit murder, betray your client, and risk your career?

It did seem like the sort of thing that should have had a realllly personal motivation behind it, didn't it?

I don't think he saw it as betraying his client--didn't he take her on as a client so he could frame her? A million dollars used to be a lot of money. I don't think it's enough to get Joe Normal who probably makes decent money (give him a gambling debt, or something) to turn to a complex life of crime.

No, she was assigned to him by the department to mandated counseling after the shooting last season.

That's awfully convenient.

Yes, I didn't like that either. We have to extrapolate that the briber guy found out that she was in counseling, found out the name of the counselor, approached the counselor about a patient, counselor was willing to break confidentiality to confirm that she was a patient, and to come up with this hare brained scheme? Not bloody likely.

Procedural synchronicity heavily at work--NCIS and Castle use Strangers on a Train, The Mentalist and Psych have murderous psychiatrists.

I liked this week's Psych, although I understand I missed much of the injoking. Still, Gus was smart, and a good Dwayne Wayne moment never goes amiss.

Hey, I just watched 2 episodes of csi On Demand and I am confused - was the episode with Jorja Fox the season premiere? Did I somehow miss the explanation of why she was back? And then, why wasn't she there in the most recent episode?

yes. she came back midway through the season premiere. I believe in her entrance she explained why she was back: they were down a CSI and she was called to see if she is available. We also found out she married Grissom and that he is doing his think in France maybe?

They got in touch with either her or Grissom for a recommendation for a Riley-replacement and got her instead, temporarily.
