I’ve never heard the term used in Chicago…but a lot in NYC, Brooklyn in particular. It’s the borough I’m most familiar with.

Genuine question, do they call convenience store 'bodega' in Los Angeles?

There IS slightly more to it than just being a Convience store. A 7-11 on the same street wouldn't be a Bodega. Most areas with a large Latino community are likely to have bodegas.  You call them that, because they're run by Latinos... and because they themselves call it that.  LA definitely has, and calls them that.  NY definitely has, and calls them that.  To my recollection, Miami has them, but I don't know if it's completely uniform among Cubans to use that label (whereas Puerto Ricans and Dominicans and Mexicans definitely do). 

Not sure about Texas.  That would be another area where it's likely but I've never been there personally to check.

Best episode yet. Loved the desk at the end. 

Really nice how Ava finally got to see how her mother's big brain came in very handy.

Also saw that this episode was directed by James Roday Rodriguez (who I only really know from A Million Little Things).

He was Shawn Spencer in "Psych" which was another show with a hyper observant person acting as a consultant to the police.

I was just about to look up who directed the episode! I liked the direction a lot - and it was totally different from the rest of the series so far.

Also, you need to watch Psych to see more of James Roday Rodriguez!
