I echo the above sentiments.  I don't recall the woman's name who 
plays Merciless, but she is G-O-O-D!!  (Must have Liz Hubbard 
quaking in her boots.)  She has made us love to hate her in an
amazingly short period of time.  Not only that, but someone on
the writing staff deserves kudos for concocting such a deliciously
evil character.  

As for Gregory, I think his character will be a fine addition to
Yuckdale.  I just wish they'd start calling him "Greg."  "Gregory"
is such a weenie name.  (I sincerely hope I don't offend anyone
by saying that.  It is, of course, just MHO.)

Why is Inspector Clue, So? hanging around?  They must plan to do
something with him.  But then, I thought that about a lot of these
non-contract types they've been dragging, kicking and screaming, 
intothis murder story in the past year.

I have always thought that H2D is involved in at LEAST Chairo's 
murder, and now I am absolutely convinced of it.  The fact that 
they keep hammering at the "no special privileges because H2D's 
the natural father" clause in the adoption papers is enough for
me.

I now also have a theory that our favorite Hunky Honky is up to 
his twinkling eyeballs in framing CabinCruiser.  I don't think he
had anything to do with any of the murders, but I think he 
volunteered his services to someone (Harpers, maybe?) to ensure
that Cabin would fry.
