Wow! I have to agree with the other reviews here about how poorly written and conceived this episode was. There is no way even an average person, knowing that they are in potential danger, would blithely open their home to a complete stranger as this episode has Liz doing. Her character is not stupid. There is no way in hell, knowing what she knows, and especially after what had just happened with her grandfather, that she would be so careless -- sheesh, she even knew it was a woman behind it all.

Shame, shame, shame on the writers, on the whole production team, for allowing the premise behind this episode to ever happen!! Talking about letting your characters down! And this season had started so well, with such depth and subtlety in episodes one and two. Well, that's shot to hell now, isn't it? You all should be smacked soundly... and/or fired!

And extra shame on the writers also because Aram's character was so awesome in this episode. As was the new character, Frankie Campbell. I hope she stays on -- she rocks in this episode. This should have been an eight or nine-star episode just for them, not the three I now have to give it because of the very bad taste Liz's storyline is leaving in my head. Hesitant to continue watching episode four cos I can only swallow so much stupid at once.
