"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Do you mean you still suspect him, or that he's officially still a suspect? I'm out of touch with the proceedings

I should have been clearer. I do not know if he is officially considered a suspect, but the new testimony and evidence I have read about seems to point in his direction, unless I'm missing something. So, I don't think he has been officially ruled out as a suspect either.

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

I did a bit of googling after you mentioned that, sj, and it seems he's not an official suspect.

However, they also say her cause of death is still accidental drowning, so I'm not really sure what's the what.

That is sort of what I was trying to say in my previous post. They are not officially naming him as a suspect, but I don't think that means that they won't change their mind about that if new evidence points in his direction.

However, they also say her cause of death is still accidental drowning, so I'm not really sure what's the what.

I think that is what remains on the official record unless they find something different in this current investigation.

Because books.

I can't imagine what new evidence they're going to come up with now, though, especially since she drowned, and the only people on the boat have already been interviewed.

The captain kept insisting he wasn't trying to cash in, in the interview I saw, and that he wrote a book about this published four years ago, but I just can't see where they're going to get with this. The fact that no authorities were called until so long after they noticed her missing is damning enough, but they knew that years ago, right?

Okay, NCIS: LA, WTF?

I don't give this show 100% of my attention, and usually that works out, but I'm confused now. Last week's ep, with the gorgeous African chick...was Sam back in LA at the end? With a wife no one knows about? What? Canon allows for that?

As for this week's ep, ENOUGH with the "Oh, no, I've been fired!" "Uh, sorry I went undercover, but I needed your reactions to be realistic and you're not good enough at your job to be trusted to do it" trope (I typed tripe initially--someone write Freud a cheque). It's predictable, and I think it detracts from the plot.

Grrr. For some reason, cable on TNT went out. Grrr. And I don't have a cable card for the tivo, so I can't record it later. Grr.

Are you in the right thread? I can't think of a procedural on tonight. Did something start as well as Leverage?

I didn't want to go into cable drama to avoid the spoilage, but some where where my pain could be felt

Am I supposed to still be thinking Chief Johnson is a horrible person? Is that the text, or is that me? She's so straight up unpleasant, and in a way that has potentially awful impacts on lives all around 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

Yeah, I'm kind of losing track of where they're going with this. Her speechifying about having to step outside the lines like the coach was repellent.

(And talk about unfortunately timely plotting.)
