I'm sorry, but this part was SO dumb...

Did you miss the guy coming up to her in the ropes? It looks like one of
the baldy guys cuz of the stuff he's wearing, but I bet it is someone
that will rescue her right at the last minute! :)

Thanks again for the update Larry.  I just happened to be able to see this
episode because I got sick at work and decided to come home. :)  

I wont be able to see todays though, so I'll be eagerly awaiting your
update tomorrow!
