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

That's awfully convenient.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

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.

Art Crawl!!!

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?

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

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.

Yes, they called her to see if she knew anyone, and since Grissom was lecturing at the Sorbonne for the semester, she didn't have anything better to do. @@ (I still hate her. Not as much as Riley, but I still hate her)

I join you in the hate. I always thought her and Grissom were creepy too. She doesn't strike me as healthy-attachment girl. And he needs all the mental-health help he can get. Lady Heather-shaped help.

I didn't even notice she wasn't in this week's episode, but now that it's brought up, she didn't mention she was Mrs. Grissom, so she must not have been there. @@ indeed.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

she looks so happy now, I've warmed up to her. I think Grissom had the best chemistry with Lady Heather, tho.

I loved Lady Heather. I was sorry that Grissom was not smart enough to explore that.
