Episode 11
Wrong Place, Wrong Time (1-07-02)
Brief Synopsis: As Jordan and
Garrett investigate a foiled bank robbery that resulted in two deaths, they find
evidence suggesting that the event may have been a staged, contract killing.
Detective Woodrow ‘Woody’ Hoyt—new guy
on the block from Wisconsin. I don’t think I’ve ever laughed so hard. The
opening scene between him, Garret and Jordan was priceless. I’m telling you
when the shows over and done with I’ll still remember that scene and it’ll rank
up there as one of the best. I sure hope Woody (what’s up with the name by the
way. Who names their son Woodrow unless they want to cause him endless
heartache and grief and teasing growing up?) is sticking around, because I
absolutely loved him. He was so sweet…accommodating…and oh so naïve.
What a great episode.
Jordan: Jordan, Jordan, Jordan!
Clever. Tyler pushes her and she pushes back—harder. She gets her wish. He
goes running. She has her whole spiel about wanting to settle down and Tyler
moving in with her and possibly starting a family…and that was all it took. He
was packed and ready to go before Jordan could finish her speech. Was Jordan
really ready for everything she preached about? I don’t think so, but Tyler
wasn’t going to take any chances.
Jordan needs to go bound with her
girlfriends. Here she is telling Garret about her ‘intimacy’ problems and how
she can’t seem to let herself get too close to anyone. Garret is obviously
uncomfortable in the ‘girlfriend’ role, but he does offer Jordan some good
advice.
Garret: Some character
building. We learned Garret wanted to be a great musician and then dropped out
of high school to pursue it—following in his father’s footsteps. The picture
posted on the bulletin board really set Garret off. It seemed like such an
innocent picture, but low and behold it brought back memories of Garret’s
father. Memories Garret wasn’t dealing with too well. His father loved him,
just obviously not enough to stick around. It’s left Garret a little scarred.
Who’d have thought Garret was a wild
child? It’s nice to learn that there is a more carefree side to Garret.
Speaking of carefree, I think Garret’s mellowing a little bit. He seemed to
take Lily’s present (the drumsticks) in stride (after Lily’s lecture of
course). And he didn’t flip out at Jordan when she admitted she was the culprit
behind the photo posting.
Bug and Nigel: Those two are
like fraternal twins. Different as can be on the outside, but inside two peas
in a pod. Oh yes Bug’s a pessimist and Nigel’s an optimist, but they’re both
two very curious people. Bug tries to suppress his curiosity where as Nigel
delves in at every opportunity. Nigel tempts Bug, but he won’t give in. So
what does Nigel do? He starts bringing in the family members. Three family
members with three different stories, all who want the body. Bug holds out as
long as he can but eventually gives in and admits he’s curious.
The group dinner at Jordan’s place was
immensely entertaining. Trust Nigel to break the ice. It was a great idea
getting them all together in one place, outside of work. It was nice to see the
easy camaraderie and teasing going on among the gang.
