I didn't know L&O was new last night! Why didn't my TiVo grab it?? Must ahem it ASAP when I get home. The first two episodes after the Olympic break was relatively low on law, although it gave good Lupo. Bernard having his partner's (emotional) back made me go awwww.

Art Crawl!!!

That (10 Eastern on Monday) is L&Os new regular time.

BTW, yesterday Fresh Air interviewed the author of Whip Smart the memoir of a young woman who became a dominatrix after graduating from college and put herself through grad school. So, Castle felt weirdly tie-in-ish.

“Not dead yet!”

I loved Beckett going into interrogate the CEO dude and Castle and Esposito riffing off Dr. Suess.

Also, for as much crap as Esposito gives Ryan about being whipped, he was the one who couldn't cope with the dom and her bootlace demands.

That's shy and whitebread, not whipped. I think taking phone calls from Honeymilk every 5 minutes while on the job definitely qualifies Ryan as whipped. And doesn't dispose me too favorably to her despite the good impression in person, either.

True. I think the fact that she was wielding the crop, however, was what was supposed to lead the viewer to the comparison.

Oh, BAH. Scheduling conflict with Castle -- that's why Tivo didn't grab it. They shuffled it around after the whole All Jay Leno, All the Time! experience failed, I guess. I liked where it was before -- it didn't conflict with anything.

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

Has he? I can only recall a couple.

The mere fact that Esposito actually caved to the demand and continued pressure to untie some strange woman's boots said something about his ability to be dominated. Unless it was a clever interview ploy, which I don't quite buy.

Always Anti-fascist!

I haven't seen the episode, but, ita, that reminds me of the Homicide in the kink store where the cute proprietress cuts through Bayliss' reluctance to try on the leather jacket by not allowing him to argue about it.It's like she can tell that Timmy is a brother or something.

Ryan's a good egg.

He's such a Boy Scout, so polite while interviewing the mistresses. Esposito took a more worldly-wise attitude and had it handed to him by his subject.

brillig

I was confused at the end, was Ryan's girlfriend at the dungeon? Or was it all significant because we finally get to meet her?
