This episode sees Dwight Dixon, the old friend of Chuck and Ned's fathers, continue his search for the pocket watch that had supposedly been buried with Chuck. He knows that her grave contained neither the grave nor the watch and now that he is dating Aunt Vivian it is only a matter of time before he realises that Charlotte Charles is the girl he met in The Pie Hole. There is of course a murder to be solved too; this time an aged multimillionaire whose lawyer believes wrote a second will disinheriting his young trophy wife. When asked the victim stated that 'the bellman did it'; the bellman in question being somebody from charity organisation that is led by a man who considers himself a latter day Robin Hood.
The main mystery was fairly light this week although it was fun seeing Ethan Phillips, best known as Neelix from 'Star Trek: Voyager' without his alien make up; if it hadn't been for his distinctive voice I wouldn't have recognised him! The real interest this week was what Dwight Dixon was up to and what he would do when he learnt that Chuck was alive and working at The Pie Hole. There was a great scene between Stephan Root, who plays Dwight, and Swoosie Kurtz who plays Aunt Lily and a surprise when she sneaks into his room and discovers enough weaponry to start a small war! As with many episodes this season there is a cliff hanger ending that will leave the viewer keen to watch the next episode to discover what happens next.
