Question: What animal is gelded in the first episode?

Answer: camel

Perhaps it seems inefficient to put so much effort into helping individual animals, but the counterweight to that perception is that many of their problems are caused by humans. The rhinoceros, for instance, lost its horn to poachers. Part of the beauty of the presentation is that it lets you work out the ethical issues for yourself rather than beating you over the head with them. That restraint sets “Operation Wild” apart from its cousins on basic cable, where outlets like Animal Planet and the National Geographic Channel have been turning veterinarians into TV stars for years: “Dr. Oakley, Yukon Vet,” “The Incredible Dr. Pol,” “Emergency Vets.” A new entry comes along next Saturday on Animal Planet: “Dr. Jeff, Rocky Mountain Vet.” The differences between that show and “Operation Wild” are pronounced. “Dr. Jeff” is about a Colorado veterinarian named Jeff Young, who has a sprawling practice that includes a mobile clinic. It’s typical of these shows: heavy on cats and dogs, but with a smattering of more exotic domesticated animals. <hl> In the premiere, for instance, a camel is gelded. <hl>

Question: Where did the business start?

A. They are easier to buy. We did start our business in the B office building, and we found ourselves in that niche and felt very, very comfortable there.

We like to give our tenants a high-quality office environment. We don’t want them to think that they’re in a low-quality, traditional, old-fashioned B building, where they feel like they’re giving something up. Q. Would you ever consider investing in Class A buildings?  A. Absolutely, but right now it would not be possible given the competition.

Question: What event touched Liz Taylor the most?

At the beginning of the season we discussed how a hotel makes for a natural horror setting Hidden staircases, strangers coming and going, messes made and erased. Liz Taylor, our stylish concierge and bar tender, has seen it all, but what touches her most is an old couple come to the Cortez to end their lives together. Elegant in her cheongsam, the score remarkably similar to Shigeru Umebayashi’s “Yumeji’s Theme,” best known for its use in Wong Kar Wai’s luxurious film “In the Mood For Love,” Liz decides she’s had enough. “I feel like I’ll never be happy again,” she said. “I pretend that I’m O.K. living in a world without Tristan, but it’s... It’s been difficult. Besides, knowing the Countess, it’s just a matter of time before she slits my throat.” Liz isn’t the only one who wants out; even vampire Iris has had enough: “Donovan was my one true love. I thought when he brought me back from the brink of death, it was because he loved me. He doesn’t love me. He never will.” But while the indifference of Iris’s son is driving her to death, Liz’s son, whom she left behind, is the reason their death pact has to wait. Like in other seasons, the mythology of “Hotel” is fairly standard: unfinished business means ghosts will be trapped wherever they died.

I thought when he brought me back from the brink of death, it was because he loved me. He doesn’t love me. He never will.” But while the indifference of Iris’s son is driving her to death, Liz’s son, whom she left behind, is the reason their death pact has to wait.

Question: What does unfinished business means for the hotel?

Answer: ghosts will be trapped wherever they died.

At the beginning of the season we discussed how a hotel makes for a natural horror setting Hidden staircases, strangers coming and going, messes made and erased. Liz Taylor, our stylish concierge and bar tender, has seen it all, but what touches her most is an old couple come to the Cortez to end their lives together. Elegant in her cheongsam, the score remarkably similar to Shigeru Umebayashi’s “Yumeji’s Theme,” best known for its use in Wong Kar Wai’s luxurious film “In the Mood For Love,” Liz decides she’s had enough. “I feel like I’ll never be happy again,” she said. “I pretend that I’m O.K. living in a world without Tristan, but it’s... It’s been difficult. Besides, knowing the Countess, it’s just a matter of time before she slits my throat.” Liz isn’t the only one who wants out; even vampire Iris has had enough: “Donovan was my one true love.

Question: Who were reunited when Alex confessed that  she and Holden are in danger?

Speaking of children, Alex and John are reunited when Alex confesses that both she and Holden are in danger from the Countess unless the pack of rabid vampire children Alex inadvertently created are dealt with. After luring the children into the hotel’s dungeon (where Ramona Royale is still lurking) the Lowes tumble into bed, much to Sally’s murderous fury. “What we have is an addict’s high,” John explains to Sarah Paulson’s junkie ghost. “In the moment, it seems like it’s never ends. But it always ends.” Alex, John and Holden leave the Cortez, hopefully to retrieve daughter Scarlett, as forgotten by them as by the show’s writers. But what will happen when Alex discovers John has spent the past five years slaughtering people to appease a ghost? Or when John realizes there’s something different about his wife? But sure, cancel the divorce papers, romance is for optimists! The Countess, meanwhile, threatens the ghost of Will Drake, her former fiancé and current owner of the Cortez: “I don’t kill children,” she explains after reminding Drake that his young son, her legal ward, is his sole heir, “but I could make him a blood relative.” Keeping his son uninfected might just be Will Drake’s unfinished business.

Question: Who is the Countess's lost love?

Remember Valentino, the Countess’s lost love whose back story we spent two episodes learning? Forget undead, he’s officially dead thanks to Donovan’s jealousy. That’s what you get for bringing a scimitar to a gunfight. While the Countess confronts Donovan, Liz is talking Iris into making a move: “You and I are women of a certain age. We have suffered, more than our fair share. Damn it, we are the ones who should inherit the earth [...] We’re entitled to a second chance. A glorious blazing, final act.” Armed with guns galore (no scimitars in sight) Iris and Liz open fire on the Countess and Donovan, giving “Hotel” it’s first serious cliffhanger. Thus far Liz has been right about caftans, books choices and the best way to fake pâté. Let us hope she was also right when she said, “My friend, the best is yet to come.”

Question: Who has been discussing creating a health care collective?

The U.A.W. had been discussing creating a health care collective covering workers at all three companies for the purpose of saving money on the costs of medical care and prescription drugs. “The cooperative arrangement is embedded in the spirit of this agreement, and I really hope it gets implemented,” Mr. Marchionne said. Mr. Williams said he would present the tentative agreement on Wednesday to union officials from Fiat Chrysler facilities across the country. After that takes place, union members will vote on the pact. He said the vote would probably take place next week.
