My question in this episode is how the hell did Prop Joe get ahold of those police reports of the subpoenas??

Plus, I was thinking very hard on why Namond wasn't with the other when they went to the vacant to see the body. Your thoughts? I forgot, was he at home getting a lecture from his mom?

One painful lesson all new teachers learn is that you never, ever should give students an indication that they can talk you out of a punishment. In my first year, I made the exact same mistake Prez did here and I regretted it for the entire year.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17517257.post-1160425433575629092006-10-09T16:23:00.000-04:002006-10-09T16:23:00.000-04:00I usually turn on the closed captioning.

Drugs? Sex? Something worse? It was unclear to me - or actually what they said was unclear. This is the problem with having so many untrained actors on this show - enunciation.

He doesn't know what he doesn't know. He knows where drug-murder bodies usually get dumped... in the water, in Leakin Park, down the sewers.<BR/><BR/>Why doesn't he start looking in the trunks of abandoned cars? Well, why would he? It's not like he *knows* there's a bunch of bodies out there to be found... nobody's reporting these victims as missing, because, just like Lex's mama, it's hear no evil, speak no evil. Lester's just exploring a hunch.<BR/><BR/>Apparently, bodies don't usually get dumped in vacant houses... which is why it was such an evilly clever idea on Marlo's part in the first place.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17517257.post-1160356228238347842006-10-08T21:10:00.000-04:002006-10-08T21:10:00.000-04:00The Ojays - Back StabbersI thinkThe Ojays - Back Stabbers<BR/><BR/>I thinkAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
