It seems like Richmond has alot to hide. Tonight’s ep (Beau Soleil) makes it look like it’s him, probably met Rosie through Drexler (god, what a creep). And yeah, the whole Adela thing seemed hokey. Does anyone know who the killer was in the original version? I saw someone Vagn being the killer, but who does that correspond to in the American version?

In reply to Christopher. You're just all uppity because you think you're a better investigator than Linden after all the L.A. Noire playing.

In reply to Craig.

They really could have covered it a bit better. Maybe Rosie wrote “Adele” instead of “Adela”, or A.F. (Adela, Ferry) or if the ferry name was, for example, “Binkerhoff” and she just wrote “B. Hoff” and they thought it was a name and not a boat. SOMETHING other than they just somehow didn’t know it was a boat and didn’t bother to pick up a search engine or ask around the precinct or do any sort of actual investigation. SOMETHING.

On the discovery of the “Adela” thing — I have to give the show the benefit of the doubt and assume that, off-camera, Linden Binged or Googled or possibly Webcrawlered the phrase you suggest and found the ferry, for two reasons — (1) she didn’t seem overly surprised to look up from her jog and see it and (2) the other explanation is that this is a show with super-shitty writing, and I don’t watch those shows. For the most part. OK, fine, I watch “Nikita,” you got me.
