That's what I think, too, Dipo. He was going through her papers because he wanted to see how much money she has that he can take. I've had a bad feeling about him all along. (What is it about this business that makes it hard for us to trust people?  )

I can't believe she's falling for that line of crap he told her.
Hopefully Bull will save the day on this one. He didn't like him from the start (maybe for the wrong reason, but still).

I didn't like him from the start either. He seems too perfect. If anything seems too good to be true, it probably is.

With every thing at her fingertips at work, I'd think it would be easy for her to have thoroughly vetted him. But I guess we'll see.

Or it would be easy for Bull to do it. I'm surprised he hasn't already, since he has such bad feelings about him.

It would be an interesting storyline if the shifty boyfriend got in in some deep legal trouble and Marissa gets Bull and his team to help him in a trial...but in doing so, Bull discovers that the bf is as crooked as they come, but Marissa still believes the bf and remains loyal.
Putting Bull in between his trusted employee/friend and her deceitful bf in a legal setting could stir things up a bit.

I just watched the episode about the teacher changing an answer for her favorite student so he could pass a test. (He had arrived late)
I don't care why she did it, she cheated. Guilty!

Something I learned a long time ago - not everything is always black and white.
Anyway, she was found guilty. The judge just gave her a light sentence to account for the "not black and white" aspect of the "crime".

I am behind on my shows...just now watching the Thanksgiving show. So why does the "bad boyfriend" need help getting a passport...has he been declined for one (is that even possible); I just don't like him.

Dipo, to answer your question, he called her a couple of episodes back and told her his passport had been stolen. She offered to pull some strings to get him another one, since he had that "important business deal" to get to. She got him at the airport, but she won't get her money back. Maybe there's a reward out for his capture?
I thought this show was pretty contrived in a lot of ways. The courts would not have placed her with the nanny. She would have gone to foster care until the case was settled. And in view of today's sensitivity surrounding inappropriate relationships, I was uncomfortable with how many times they put Bull alone with that little girl. Not that he would do anything, but it could appear inappropriate. I worked for a preschool nearly 15 years ago, and we were never allowed to be alone with a child. If a child needed help with anything (especially with dressing or using the restroom), there always had to be another adult present just for everyone's protection.

I thought the father walking away from the school carrying a 9 year old was a little strange. Also carrying her in to court. While I thought the show was sweet, it was also pretty unrealistic

And he wouldn't be allowed to pick her up from school if he didn't have custody. In real life her school would have been notified. Plus Bull wouldn't have been allowed to pick her up either. Schools now (especially private schools) would not allow someone to pick up a child without written permission.

Thanks Babyjaxmom, I had forgotten about the passport, didn't they say on the show that he needed her to get it for him because he wouldn't have qualified? It seems to me that even with an emergency passport they would do basic security checks.
I wish there was a way she could get her money back, maybe she can sue him and attach his "wife's" assets.
Yes there were a lot of things that couldn't happen in real life with the little girl, there is no way she wouldn't have been put in foster care, I noticed that right away.....it's too bad they didn't have a consultant about those parts to make them more realistic.

Ok, I am not sure what the deal was with this last show....did the ending mean that the girl was going back to her bad ways of getting involved with a bad man?

I think it just meant she's addicted to the internet.

I found it odd that they never used the term "Stockholm Syndrome", especially considering that was literally the point of their defense.
It would be like mounting a defense of a killing by saying that the person who actually pulled the trigger was afraid he or she was about to be killed by the deceased....but never mentioning the term "self defense".

Omg, I don't know about this show. They brought a wife to trail for murder with ABSOLUTELY NO EVIDENCE. You can't try someone for murder just because nobody likes them and "it's always the spouse." No DA would ever bring a case that flimsy to court. It's a waste of everybody's time and taxpayer money.
Plus I figured out that the husband staged his own death 20 minutes in. Who writes this slop???
