Quote of the Week
Oh Due South, you never stop being awesome...
[The detectives are trying to figure out the motives of the people involved in a crime they observed.]
Thatcher: She [the suspect] is involved with the older man. Perhaps even married to him. Maybe loves him. But let's say he's cold and unfeeling. He treats her badly. Probably abuses her.
Ray: Wait a minute -- what are you basing this on?
Thatcher: From what I heard, and what I saw!
Ray: "What I heard and what I saw." Who are you, Sherlock Holmes?
Thatcher: You're a laugh riot, Detective. But if you looked, you would have seen that she wore Cartier earrings, mounted in rose gold, and [a necklace of] uncultured black pearls, exactly the kind of gift an older man might give to buy affection and excuse his guilty conscience.
Ray: Wow. That is one talkative necklace.
