Alternately, maybe he could finally get fed up with her lax attitude toward keeping her hair out of the corpses' innards and stealthily put it in a bun for her while she's occupied with poking and scalpels?
Yes!! "Oh look, I found a hair from the killer on the body!" "Uhhh, Megan, that's your hair." "We should send it off to the lab just in case!" "But it would just be a match for you... like the last twenty mysterious hair samples we found. ::::hands her a hair net::::" Seriously, she doesn't even pull her hair back! You know she's shedding all *over* the bodies! Scully would never have stood for this!
I think the most I ever got out of someone's parent was when a guy's dad offered us all quarters if we could learn all the states' capitols in second grade. [Probably relevant: This was on the way to a gifted program we were all in.] Thus began my lifelong appreciation for random geographical trivia.)
Ohhhhhh the nerdiness! : O (I missed out on the joy of carpooling, myself.)
(Also, seriously, the growth plates Kate mentioned were surer proof than the method they originally went with. Why not just do that?)
...budget? Yeah, I dunno. Although you'd think if Todd wanted a solid case, he'd ask for more than one type of evidence of the kid's minority in the first place.
So far, there's absolutely nothing likeable about this guy.
It's like he's trying to be charming, and he almost pulls it off, but.... sleaze.
I'm thinking Lacey was a surprise, or else Todd really wanted a kid.
Or else Megan was all, "La la la I can totally juggle my career and a kid, no problem!" at first. Um, yeah, my money's on "accident."
They really need to have a scene between them where they make it vaguely plausible that they loved each other once.
That would help, yes. Even a flashback wouldn't hurt! (In small doses, perhaps.)
I guess that would fit right in with the Dirty Manly Men Doing Dirty Manly Things...I mean History Channel.
I guess it's a step up from The Hitler Channel?
Though I'm betting come season finale time, it will turn out to have been something quite different...
OF course...
There MUST have been a lecture after this. Presumably with raised voices.
