Trying to decide where to go with this show so I read the posts here before watching again. Thought I might watch to see Mattie high like you all described and then decided I didn't really care. Then I realized the only person I cared about was Olympia and I don't want to watch Mattie screw her over. I'm out, but I may check in here later to see how Olympia fared - hoping against hope that somehow Olympia exposes Mattie and she gets her just due. Sigh.

I generally find Issac annoying, so this wasn't my favorite episode. The other plot just seemed... I dunno... Not fleshed out? More like filler. Other thoughts: I also thought the barn looked shabby. If I drove up to it looking for a restaurant, I would think I was in the wrong place and leave. Someone said something about the speech in Isaac's story being more current. I guess you could say that, in Isaac's retelling of the story, he was just using the language he has learned over the years and now uses. Many people retelling stories do so using their own expressions. Or something... So the party was a disaster and Franklin got a different bunch of friends together for the next signing attempt. Thanks to whomever recounted the final scene. My recording ended halfway through it. If Jay only saw a picture of what's his face once or twice, I can understand that he wouldn't recognize him. I wouldn't. Maybe he would look familiar, but without context, it could totally fly over his head. I'm tired. I don't know if I'm making sense. I can't think of words I want to use. I should go to bed. Goodnight. 🙄

Haven't watched this episode yet, but from reading/skimming through these posts, it seems like there was no case this episode, just backstory. I'll delete and see if next ep has a case.

Yeah, I would think that maybe their parents might have heard of Eliza, but not the kids. Certainly, kids knew a lot less of the world before social media. Well, maybe they knew more of the world - the big picture - but not as much who's who in the local social setting.

I keep reading about 'vocal fry' here. I've never heard about it anywhere else but here. Is this something you can force your voice to do? I thought it was just their voice. Annoying, but not something they could do anything about. ???

I thought it was 90 pct greed and 10 pct ' Mom liked you best'. I don't think he would have killed his twin just because of jealousy. I kept waiting for the police to listen to the recording and hear the dogs barking in the background. Ava/Ada not interrupting him was so flimsy and easily explained by saying he turned it off. But he stopped talking when the dogs barked and I think there was something else in the background that would have been harder to explain. I can't believe that didn't factor in as many times as they listened to the tape.

Fast forwarding through any of Mattie's scenes at home or on the phone with her family was doing a good job of making me like her more until she screwed over Sarah. Screwing with the two lawyers that are somehow under her now just reminded me of how much of a jerk she can be.

I had thought of just deleting the two episodes I have waiting for me and to stop them recording, but I really like courtroom shows. I found that if I fast forward whenever Mattie is home or even talks to her family on the phone, I actually can enjoy this show. I like the COTW stuff and Mattie and Olympia together. Can't wait until the drug company stuff is over.

I never understood why they don't have a computer NOT hooked up to the internet or LAN systems. If it infects that computer, no biggie. Sheesh. This still remains one of my favorite shows.

Well, I'm glad that Nash is gone. He's too smarmy for me. I was pissed Eliza agreed to share her office. At least she could have asked for rent and since she mentioned she couldn't afford a raise in her rent, I could have understood. Eliza and Clarence are the only ones to be somewhat friends and Nash lies and uses them. He redeemed himself slightly at the end, but I'm glad he's gone. Of course, he'll be back. Sigh. Ivy is too strong a woman for Mr Potts. I missed Blake. I like his interactions with Eliza and that he recognizes Ivy's worth - whereas, I think Potts just sees her as a future housewife along with the duties assumed by that job back then. I do have to give Potts a little credit, though, when he helped Eliza with the cooking and the dishwashing last week. We'll see if he continues or expects Ivy to do it all. He may only have helped Eliza because he was "teaching" her.

I agree. I really liked William and wasn't sure I wanted to watch this season, but I'm enjoying it. I really like the new detective. Nash can stay in prison. I still don't care for him. I don't think Ivy loves the coroner. I think she likes him, considers him a friend, enjoys the attention, but doesn't really feel romantic love for him. I'm not sure how they felt about platonic relationships back then and maybe she felt pressure from the times to consider it more than she felt. I probably didn't say that right.

I like that Bailey, opposite of Nolan, is willing to point the killer to her ex. I laughed when she let him go. Nolan would be pissed. I loved the sorority girls beating up the serial killer and, frankly, liked the second serial killer twist and the surprise of serial killer 1. I actually liked this episode.

I still like this show, but I agree that this episode sucked. Nolan going after that guy made no sense. Even without the Bailey connection, it made no sense. He doesn't condone what Maldonado does, fine, doesn't mean it's his responsibility to stop him. Report it to whomever's job it is to hunt down murderers and let them take care of it. To aggressively hunt down the guy is a stupid plot. All the other plots were boring, too, but I did like how the rookie tricked that guy and how quick the hostage caught onto it and played along. Previews for next week look better.

Guess you're going to have to explain that one. I could tell it was another inside joke, but I don't know the reference. Also, my recording cut off. What was in the box at the end? Saw up to when the mannequin's head fell off and Dan told Abby the box was for her. Mayim looked like she was having fun.
