I guess that'll work. I was *mainly* thinking of the Sheriff looking out for her, and you're right - he was preoccupied.:- )   See 2 other replies

Episode 3 was good, imo, but I think this was even better.There is so much going on - I wonder if its to much for some people to deal with and they end up hating the show.But i love the twists and turns and the way characters continue to be revealed to us.
There is a rich array of characters.
And a rich array of suspects.
And there is the "magic".As long as the script continues to hold - no major plot holes - I'm with it - to the short bitter end.   See 5 other replies

At the very least, the boyfriend should have taken her home.I agree, that's the only semi-serious fault I can remember in this otherwise pretty good episode.But, to play devil's advocate:
The cops showed up and the poor little rich kid got scared (or the girl friend was afraid for him) and he ran off.
This is normal for a girl, "born on the wrong side of the tracks", to be ignored by most people; every body is busy taking care of their own and the people who "count".
She's used to looking out for herself and not asking for help - cause no one else will.
And the Sheriff and posse were pretty preoccupied.Okay, I actually think that's pretty plausible; I'll give it to the writers and withdraw my complaint.   See 2 other replies
