You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

I figured it out the first time she called for her, but I hadn't seen any of the ads, so I didn't know there was a "thing" coming down the pike.

Shouldn't that be "pipe"?

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

"that is not a woman who sleeps in".

Yes, that was my thought process too.

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

Well, we called that. Although I didn't think that she had been hired, more that she saw an opportunity, or maybe she had been approached by him because she was David's girlfriend. I never thought that he'd schemed from the beginning.

Of course, now she'll never practice law, and Goldman can be brought up on ethics charges. It won't affect the lawsuit, though.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

Of course, now she'll never practice law

I was wondering about that, Vortex, what actual laws/rules did she break/could she be charged with? Or is it more a matter of proving to be a non-ethical person even before passing the bar? (I mean, obviously we all know she was wrong and bad, I was curious what actual charges could realistically be filed?)

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

Misconduct rules prohibit lawyers from conduct involving misrepresentation or dishonesty. Also one could argue that since David knew that she was going to be an attorney that he believed that their conversations were confidential. She certainly knew that he was sharing confidential information, and lawyers have a duty to keep confidential information as such. Finally, there is the ever popular "moral turpitude". If she went to church (she is going to HELL) planning to meet him to get information about MC out of him, you could also throw fraud in there. (situation would have been murkier if she had been legit, but Goldman approached her and offered to help with her loans)

The fact that she is not a lawyer yet won't save her because most bar exam applications ask if you've ever been accused/convicted of a crime involving dishonesty.

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

Did they cancel Psych or something?

No, I know they didn't, but I swear I couldn't find a return date on the official page, nor in IMDB or Wikipedia.

If you missed Luther the first go 'round, it's being rebroadcast on BBCA starting August 22.

Also, new episodes of The Monroe Show (some people call it Grimm) begin August 17.

Oh, thanks, I had dropped the season pass for Grimm.

And it looks like it's airing tomorrow, so, check listings, I guess.
