I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

All of whom are "Hey It's That Guy" to me.

The Closer:

So when Capt. Rader hit that guy in the face with the beanbag round, did anybody else think she had hit him in the nose and done the drive-the-cartilage-into-the-brain thing so she could face a wrongful death lawsuit of her own? Just me?

Gotta say, dead or just unconscious baddie, she was kind of badass. This ep may be the first time I ever liked her.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Only SPN watchers will get this but it keeps cracking me up that even Lucifer is all 'what the fuck is up with this chick!?'

It staves off thebdepressing realization that no, she has learned *nothing* from this whole wrongful death situation.

So true. I do love Lucifer as her attorney.

Yes, I thought that Rader was badass.

Isles' bf on this week's episode: that guy so often plays sleezes that I expected there to be a connection to the murder. . .like he was a hitman or something. (It doesn't help that I just saw the episode on L&O:Cutter where he plays a slimy attorney that Rubirosa used to be involved with.)

I do love Lucifer as her attorney.

I was enjoying the fact that it's the second time she's had Lucifer represent her, since she had Ray Wise (The Devil on Reaper) playing her attorney on an earlier season.

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

do we know if she sold her soul?

I didn't so much take it as Brenda not having learned anything from the wrongful death suit as her making the calculated decision to use her reputation to get the confession. Whether she'd have set him up to be killed, I don't know. But she correctly bet that he would believe that she would do it.

That's the way I read it, too. But since everything in Interrogation is recorded, there's now a recording of her saying that stuff, including references to Terrell, and showing what could be viewed as a pattern of behavior/practice.
