I knew it was the cop as soon as he told the guy to get in the car., but it was still very suspenseful how it was going to unfold especially how Lee was going to get out of it. Lee has been pretty good with trusting Allison and her dreams lately. He even stayed home that day. I like these kind that keep you at the edge of your seat. I didn't notice the lack of the girls either because the episode moved so fast. This was the best episode of this season, excitement and suspense.

I also love to see Scanlon and Allison working together. Like it said in the EW review, even though I knew they couldn't kill Scanlon off because he's a major character, that scene at the end with the bad cop of the week kept me on the edge of my seat. Awesome scene! I did get a little lost in relation to Mr. Bad Cop du Jour--I thought it was because the baby was crying or something, but it may be that like Kona said he just wasn't introduced until later in the episode. But that's OK because it was more suspenseful that usual! I somehow didn't even notice the lack of the girls. Loved Joe's dad as usual and loved Mitch P as the meditating boss (hope he'll be a recurring character) Great episode–one of my favorites of the season!

When Allison thinks about looking in the mirror with the glasses on, I'm not sure I would have been able to resist. Bye rainy city! Despite the lack of Marie, Bridgette and Ariel, I still enjoyed this episode a lot more than others were they have not featured so much because it wasn't obvious who the perpetrator was. A little part of me wanted to see Joe and Allison go to a party, I have been missing the abundance of fluffy moments. And there was Joe's dad, my favourite guest star. For some reason, any time he pops up I'm never disappointed.

I like the suspenseful ones like this. Plenty of guessing going on. I also like when Scanlon and Allison work together with Devolis too. They are a great team. Hope they keep making Rockin ones like this one. I think this was the best episode of the season so far . I like the suspenseful ones like this. Plenty of guessing going on.

One thing that you mentioned that I noticed was that in the teaser last week, there was a part where we could hear Allison telling Joe that she couldn't look at him or the girls with the glasses on, and there was even a scene in the teaser with the girls with the lights shining behind them, as if Allison were seeing them, but neither of those things was in this episode. Made me wonder if they did that just to increase viewer anticipation, or if was actually supposed to be in the show. I also thought it would have had greater impact if Allison had had to struggle with whether or not she wanted to know how much longer her long ones had to live. Like the scene in the bathroom when she started to put the glasses on and look in the mirror but she couldn't do it. That would have added an extra element of suspense to the show. I liked that moment of "will she do it or won't she?" and would have liked to have seen that played out a little more in the ep. I liked the suspense of the main plot because it kept me guessing. This was one of the most well written mysteries of the season as far as being unable to figure it out. But like you, I think the introduction of Carver came a little too late for it have much weight when Allison saw his number was up. I'm guessing the writers were trying to mix things up by having several suspects, because lately it seems that when they only have one or two guest stars and no suspects, then it's a foregone conclusion who the perpetrator is. I liked that they mixed it up and kept up the suspense. Hope they keep that up. I thought it was an excellent ep. This season so far is rockin'! Nice review, Kona.
