Yes, I meant Captain Deakins. That's what I get for being up in the wee small hours!! 😂
When I said that Goren was like a big kid, I meant those moments in episodes like "Cherry Red" and "Prisoner". Of course, he was whip smart and a keen observer of people. Remember "Bright Boy"? Goren was able to understand and empathize with the lonely, baseball-loving little boy who longed to be a normal kid, but was not allowed to be due to his overbearing father driven to see his son be an academic genius. I don't think anyone else on the case would have "gotten" the kid quite the way Goren did.
