If Bianca wanted Erica to rush over to SOS IMMEDIATELY to meet her about something important, why would she send email -- does Erica hover over her AOL account all day and night? I know Bianca didn't do that, but why wouldn't Erica think it was odd, when a simple phone call, cell or otherwise, would suffice?

You've just found out that your teenage stepson might have murdered someone. He's involved, one way or another. The police could show up asking questions at any second. Do you a) Get the facts straight in your head so you are prepared, b) turn him in, or c) get soused?

LOD: Gabriel to Bianca: "Was your mom FLIRTING with me?" ROTFL! Erica will NEVER give up hope on Bianca going straight :-)

So Dixie DID go to the Pine Cone Motel for sex -- right the first time!

I LOVE Leo's expressions as he envisions what a disaster a party with Greenlee and Laura might be, not to mention his waiting for the other shoe to drop, in general.

I'd also like to amend an observation I made in the Friday update: Erica is wielding a fireplace poker this time, not a massive letter opener. Our Erica is a regular McGiver when it comes to improvising lethal weapons from everyday household implements to use on her past, present and future lovers. Off the top of my head: she stabbed Dimitri with a letter opener; she knocked David Hayward unconscious with a small hand-mirror, tossed him down the nearest laundry chute, dragged him to an antique carpenter's vise where she chained him and stuck his fingers in the vise (I believe she also seriously considered using a hammer on his precious hands (the acetylene torch was MY suggestion, not Erica's)); then there are the assorted knick-knacks, vases, glasses, etc., that she throws on a regular basis. Greenlee has a ways to go in that dept, although she earned bonus points with the axe from the hallway fire cabinet in Ryan's loft.

Derek makes a dramatic gesture of pulling out Tad's business card, which he found on the floor of the boathouse. That boathouse sees more traffic than the 101 freeway at 7:45am -- I don't think he has much of a case with THAT. The BLOOD, on the other hand ...

Did Derek dramatically hold out the murder weapon which was: a gallon-size Ziploc bag?
