I just keep looking at him thinking "he's 18, I graduated by that age, why is she shoving him into a school?" And why into what appears to be an uptight prep school, at that? For God's sake, he was turning tricks just a few weeks ago, of course he's going to have difficulty adapting.
Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

Trust my rage
Rusty is 16, I think. Still annoying but I think that's why he is still in need of watching. Plus he's a material witness? I can't remember.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
He's definitely a minor. If he's not with her, he's going into the system, and not just because he's the only witness they get. He's listed as a juvenile on the TNT website.

They said he's barely 16, I believe. And he's a "material witness" to the serial killer whose ski mask he was wearing as a hat, IIRC.
For God's sake, he was turning tricks just a few weeks ago, of course he's going to have difficulty adapting.
Hear, hear.
Also on the "expel the THREE bullies who jumped the new kid, not the new kid for defending himself" bandwagon.
I was glad Raydor did at least point out to Rusty that he shouldn't need to fight again soon - I kept thinking of Ender's first fight in Ender's Game. You have to end the fight DEFINITIVELY* in order to make sure that it's not only the first, but the last fight.
*Preferably without death, obviously.

I don't know where to announce this, so I'm doing it here. ION plans to premiere Season 5 of "Flashpoint" on Tuesday, October 16.

Bones:
Angela wants to keep Hodgin's hands clean, so she asks him to place a flower message for her? In what world does that makes sense?
Is no one going to say to Bones maybe you should have left Christine safely with Booth?
There are not security cameras in the Jeffersonian that would catch Bones showing up and tampering with evidence?
Is the other FBI agent taking the flower out of the garbage significant? Is he working with Pollant?
Why am I still watching this show?

Is "Perception' one of these? Sometimes I think so, although it's a better show when it's more emotional and less crime-solving...cable drama?

erika, I think that show is being discussed in Cable Drama. I have the whole season on the DVR, and I'm still trying to decide if I want to watch it.
