  1. The episode was inspired by creator Kenya Barris’ recent experience with the birth of his sixth child,
  2. Jimmy would probably be a great used car salesman. Nacho's father sees him as a dutiful son who will probably inherit his business. He would surely be shocked and disappointed if Nacho informed him of his involvement in the drug trade and would likely refuse to cooperate, earning himself a death sentence. Nacho will either have to involve his father's business while keeping his father in the dark, or find a way to remove Don Hector.
  3. Yes, she said so in the episode in which she was introduced. That's why Trixie made her an egg when everyone else was eating kippers for breakfast. Yes; even if Sister Winifred could drive, she wouldn't have had a car to take her to the laboring mother. Would Phyllis have similarly scolded another one of the midwives whose bike had been unavailable? (Although perhaps Winifred should have told Fred that she was swapping bikes, since it was an emergency.)
  4. It's = it is.
  5. Not to mention, Joan and John live across the street in a gigantic house! Even if they were off traveling at that moment, surely Heather has a key to her parents' house. It also made no sense for the parents to sleep in the same small bed with their married son and his wife. The parents should either should either share with their daughters, or have the daughters sleep with their sister-in-law and brother and have the parents take the couch.
  6. It's going to be between Will and Grace and This Is Us on Thursdays. https://www.usatoday.com/story/life/tv/2017/05/14/nbc-fall-schedule-will-and-grace-this-is-us/101685882/
  7. So, I'm wondering about the bedroom situation at the Johnsons'. Pops lives in the pool house, and the house apparently has 5 bedrooms, one each for Bow & Dre, Zoey, Junior, the twins, and Ruby. We've seen Dre's friend have to sleep on the couch, and goodness knows where Johan sleeps. Although the baby may sleep with his parents for a while, where will his room be? I don't believe that Dre would agree to turn Zoey's room into DeVonte's room, and it's not like she could just share with Diane when she comes home, since Diane shares with Jack. Will Dre turn his sneaker closet into an alcove for the baby as Mindy did with her closet on The Mindy Project? Will Jack move in with Junior, so Diane and Zoey can share when Zoey comes home? ( I don't think that Junior, Zoe or Jack would be happy about this situation, although Diane might be ok with it.) Will there be a newly discovered room? Or do the Johnsons have a basement that has never been referred to, and they will suddenly install a bedroom suite down there for Ruby? (or Zoey, or Junior?) Ruby would make the most sense, since it's nice to see the kids in their various rooms across the hall from each other. I'm actually surprise the kids didn't bring this up as it will affect them. Junior or Diane should certainly have thought of it. (Zoey is too self-obsessed to think that she was in danger of losing her room, and Jack is too oblivious.) It won't be long before Diane and Jack will really need to split up. Perhaps Jack would then share with the baby, although the age difference is certainly large.
  8. Now that I've thought about it some more, I don't think they said anything outright about Kenneth going along with him, but I had assumed JJ would still need his aide to help him with a few things like his personal needs -- unless the camp has volunteer aides there who can do that stuff. :\ I'm guessing the next episode will be more clear on that... Then someone would have to pay Kenneth for the summer. I assume that the camp has a very good staff to camper ratio, and that the staff would be expected to help the campers dress, shower and eat, if necessary. I just don't know who is going to stand by JJ to vocalize for him all the time. Maybe other campers in his bunk will get involved.
  9. Yes, exactly. And both Red and Kaplan somehow managed to get away. I thought that Kaplan might get shot and Red would be in mourning, but I suppose the producers realize she is too valuable a character to kill. So, does Marvin Gerard get out of jail since he didn't betray the task force?
  10. The patient ate the cookie without asking if there was coconut in it, which no one with a life-threatening allergy should ever do. Now, since Greg claimed to have made the cookies, if the guy had asked him if there was coconut in them, and Greg, not really knowing but not having tasted the coconut when he ate a cookie had said "no," there would be a much stronger case against him. That's also a good argument against handing out homemade food items to a whole bunch of potentially litigious strangers on a plane. Hand out commercially packaged food instead, if you must.
  11. You are correct. Renter's insurance would also cover liability, but that would be a retcon.
  12. When Red was talking about the few people he had loved, shouldn't Dembe have been on the list?
  13. I had wondered if they left out him stopping off for the ring. I really don't believe he's been carrying it around with him.
  14. Chloe was apparently considering it because of Trixie's anxieties about her mom's job and her near death. It seems to me that some therapy sessions would be more appropriate and actually a very good idea. Wouldn't/shouldn't the police department offer free help for the children of police officers who have nearly died on the job? They must provide mental health benefits. I'm not going to suggest Dr. Linda because she is not a child psychologist, plus her knowing what Chloe was really dealing with with regard to supernatural involvement would mean that she might have to outright lie to Trixie concerning the dangers that Chloe might be exposed to as long as she is involved with Lucifer. He might be getting a lot more time with that kid now that mom's going to jail, if her husband doesn't want to care for a child whom he previously thought was biologically his, which predicted behavior was the impetus for the episode's murder.
  15. Isn't that the kind of joke that gets made when a woman has a vaginal delivery and the husband doesn't want to look at her currently less-than-pristine genital area? Bow had a c-section - everything is normal "down there" and her abdominal incision would be covered by bandages.
  16. The debt collector wasn't going to harm Liz. He was hired and received instructions not to. Yes, but he admitted to being a sadist - can you really trust him if he has time on his hands and the client doesn't show? (although Mr. Kaplan would have rescued her, I suppose.) ALso, Liz could have been accidentally harmed trying to escape from the Debt Collector. Didn't we just hear about another kidnapper hired by Red who was instructed not to hurt the victim and things went terribly wrong? Red doesn't learn from his own history! It looked like he was trying to shoot Red, but he is either a bad shot, or he wanted to change the dynamics of the FBI being there to arrest him so that he can now play a game with Ressler. Maybe Gale is someone with a history who belongs on the blacklist. I'm not crazy about this plot, but I guess the show needs a new enemy. When Liz asked Kate if she could live in a world with Red still in it and she said "no", I thought she was going to pull off her hairpiece to reveal her wound and say that she was dying from Red's attack on her, and she was going to take him with her.
  17. If Red was late, The Collector might have gotten tired of waiting and started to debt collect on Liz; then what?
  18. That's what I was going to say. There are only 30 accredited colleges of veterinary medicine in the USA, so it's even harder to get in to veterinary school than it is to medical school. (I realize that fewer people want to go to vet school than to med school.)
  19. The headmaster was played by "Elvin Tibideaux" (Sondra's husband on The Cosby Show.)
  20. I agree. I don't know why Tim didn't just switch seats with the professor and drive them all to the airport (on the highway).
  21. Me. too.
  22. Chuck mentioned that Jimmy had made an admission against interest on the tape. That theory was probably used to admit the tape during the hearing that we did not see on the show. OJ Simpson's civil trial (wrongful death) verdict comes to mind; https://www.bustle.com/articles/152048-what-does-oj-simpsons-civil-trial-verdict-mean-liable-does-not-mean-guilty
  23. Exactly. Also, is this camp free? I would have thought that the question of price would have arisen. It's a good thing that Kevin Kenneth has another job if he's not being paid to help JJ in the summer. It does seem like the day that JJ didn't get dressed must have been a weekend day, and yet Kevin Kenneth was there, juggling. Does he help out 7 days a week? He does have the big box store job. (Also the time-lapse montage did not appear to involve JJ going to the bathroom at all, since he never left the table) Also, wouldn't JJ prefer having Kevin Kenneth take care of some of his personal needs as oppose to his mother? He is a teen age boy. Finally, I get the point of Jimmy's "juice" at the hospital, but in my opinion, all the staff would have been calling out greetings to JJ, not ignoring him in favor of Jimmy. That's just how hospital staff are.
  24. I'm surprised that no one has mentioned Downton Abbey. Preeclampsia played a major role there.
  25. I disagree. Valerie basically yelled at her, which midwives aren't supposed to do, even when they disagree with their patients. You misunderstood my comment. I disagree that the show approves of FGM, or did not show strong disapproval. Valerie, as a surrogate for the writers, spoke very sharply to her patient, which I'm sure the midwives are forbidden from doing. Yes.
