good until the last fight, but then...

Rating: 6/10 (28 May 2005)

The last part of the story could have been so much better. It was as though the writers became lazy or just wanted make it as emotional as possible. Unfortunately the realism was lost. Working backwards from the end, Why didn't Frankie get arrested for murder (it's not like he even tried to cover up the crime)? Why didn't all sorts of alarms sound when Maggie's life support crashed? Under the law Maggie could have just told them to stop feeding her (of course they would have lost the gruesome tongue eating scene), which would have killed her a la Schiavo.
Would a champion in a world title fight, warned that one more rule infraction would result in disqualification, have made such a blatant move as she did when hitting Maggie for the last time?
