[QUOTE="Karin Schill, post: 98659"] Wow! I never would have thought of Mack as Richard's replacement. Maybe it's because they had one whole season when they were both on the show. But somehow the characters strikes me as very different. Although workwise I guess they fill a sort of similar role and they can give legal advice etc. Then as for Ciji and Laura, I think Richard was just being paranoid. But in a way I can understand his reaction as Laura shut him out and turned to Ciji instead. It must have been frustrating for the guy. :( Anyway I've watched some more... [B] ...And Never Brought To Mind...[/B] The situation with Lilimae and Chip is so over the top that it's sort of laughable. Yet Julie Harris does a great job with the material she's been given as she makes it seem believable that Lilimae would do such a thing as to run Chip down with the car to get justice. I liked how both Gary and Ben showed up at the jail to be of emotional support to Val. How awkward with both men there sort of competing for her attention. But it's Ben who brings her home. Only later that night Lilimae disappears and walks in on Gary & Abby in bed together! :giggle: I swear I had forgotten about that detail but it's hilarious. Gary then drives Lilimae home and ends up spending the night with Val. Sort of funny how he walked from one woman to the other. Only difference is that now it's technically Abby he's cheating on as his divorce with Val is through. I guess that's poetic justice.
