man, this town is corrupt **nods** When Mr. Executive Guy snapped and really let his true feelings show . . . Actually I was thinking of Leo talking about taking the tapes "and then I saw Logan and thought..." Mr. Executive Guy wouldn't seem that out of place in any part of the US.

Yup. It's Sunnydale all over again. ;D Not assuming this. Way to obvious a set-up; too soon.

Whiplash.
One second: Meg is dead.
Next second. Yay, Wallace.
===========
Lamb working out, just a head shot.
Me to Carolyn: "he'll be shirtless."
Nope
Oh, now yep.
Then he adjusts his sweatpants, looking like they are coming off too. We just whooped!

Re Meg's pregnancy:
I do know that it's not atypical for teens not to show until well into the pregnancy. (I don't remember the why, unfortunately.) That being the case, if Meg was around 4 months at the beginning of the school year (August in some places, September in others), it's not too much of a stretch to believe that it wouldn't be possible to tell. Reviewing the tapes and seeing Meg's outfit in the first episode, it's a little hard to believe that her stomach would be that flat, but I'm willing to let that slide. It's difficult to simulate early pregnancy on television. The actress would have to be willing to gain some weight, and given the "looks" standards applied to actors these days, I'm not surprised she wouldn't be willing to do that for that brief of an appearance.
The blood clot is plausible as well, actually. Lying that still for that long, the bus crash, the stress, and the pregnancy, not surprising. It would have been less plausible if she'd lived.

Is Leo gone for good? He could get a job on the TN Highway patrol. Huge investigation scandal. Something like 47 state troopers turn out to have felony records! ! ! That's Leo's entire career down the tubes. For $50,000? I figured the Kanes would have willingly paid the half mil. Not just to keep them off the internet, but to also convict Aaron. (I think Leo's explanation was lame---both of them: way he stole them AND why he sold them so cheap.) ======================= Okay, now the stuff about Grace Manning has to come out to keep them from getting the baby. But how could they possibly convince the court to place it up for adoption if Duncan says he wants it? No matter what his health issues he is the biological father. Now, I don't see Duncan letting them have the baby, but I could see him agreeing that adoption is the best route. Can't imagine he would want to raise it. [3 men and a baby: Duncan, Logan, Dick. URK!] But he'd have to control the adoption process----none of this going thru ultra-strict fanatical adoption agency. Imagining Celeste's reaction. Imagining Keith's reaction to Veronica's boyfriend being an unwed father at 18. Imagining Kendall. Rethinking all the Duncan with baby scenes from last week.

Imagining Keith's reaction to Veronica's boyfriend being an unwed father at 18. Imagining Kendall. Rethinking all the Duncan with baby scenes from last week. The mind boggles. Here's the thing. Is Meg 18 yet? How much does that affect the process? Does it give the Mannings precedence over paternal rights? How will Duncan's illness factor into his perceived fitness as a father? What I can imagine is a lot of pressure from Celeste to give up the baby, no matter to who, as well as a payoff to the Mannings. A lot of pressure from the Mannings to follow their original plan. And Duncan wigging out and taking off with the baby. There's precedence, after all; when he thought he was suspected for Lily's murder, he took off.

Next we'll tell you that you have to eat doughnuts and sleep with supermodels to get anything done around here.

The "kindness of strangers" line is a direct quote from "Streetcar Named Desire;" Blanche Dubois says it when the guys in the white coats come to take her away.

I'm trying to relate that to the Logan and Leo dynamic, and having problems. I mean, Logan is the one that Veronica left Leo for...and yet that can't be a throwaway...

I've no doubt we're supposed to interpret something from the reference. Sadly, I haven't a clue what it could be.
