Now, I missed about the first 15 minutes, but I was wondering about this "son" business. Did they say something about him adopting a son early in the episode, or is this supposed to be his biological son? Thanks, Barbara ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 19 Aug 2001 22:59:30 -0500 From: Jen <data@cyberg8t.com> Subject: Re: another Raven question I don't remember if it was ever said.

But, really, there was so much else screwed up in that ep, big & small.... An Immie killing a mortal on HG, an observable light show when there's no Immie close enough to take the Q, the store being called _Morgan_ & Son rather than Kenworthy & Son, obviously re-used footage, Amanda being all sweetness & light in the FB w/ no ulterior motive, a ridiculous plate-glass BHg. Nicky brandishes his silly gun no less than 6 times. Bert sports a bandaged wrist early on for no reason; Panzer's hint it would be removed to reveal a Watcher tattoo never came true. This was one of the worst of Raven's 22 eps.

Then again, he also said that Jim Byrnes also guest starred in that episode, which I can't confirm so far. > Nicky brandishes his silly gun no less than 6 > times. He IS a freshly ex-cop and now a security agent. What did you expect him to do? > Bert sports a bandaged wrist early on for no reason; > Panzer's hint it would be removed to reveal a Watcher > tattoo never came true. That's open for speculation. It is possible that the actor playing Bert had really hurt his wrist at some point and it just wasn't covered up well. On the other hand, perhaps footage was filmed that would have shown the Watcher tatoo, but was cut out for some reason. Then the bandage was just a casualty of sloppy editing, like some of Michael Myers' behaviour in the end of "Halloween: H20".
