Siddhartha by Herman Hesse. I don't remember if that was the only one or not.

Which again shows Goren's interest in the German language and culture. So stupid that the guy ain't real. I'd love to discuss German literature with him...

[quote author=janetcatbird board=discussion As to Connie being a more suitable villain--oooh. I don't think they could make him a seasonal occurence, but n a couple years when he gets out...that comment about the look at the end was right. I myself got nervous and thought "Oh no, this guy's just gonna come back." This establishment of sociopathic contempt, arrogance, and astonishing ability does make a him a much more realistic, and threatening, villain than E-N.

Perhaps thats what they plan to do in the future? Because there going to have to close the book on Nicole eventually (sooner rather than later IMO) & what better villain to fill her shoes then Connie? For the record, what did he end up going to jail for anyway? Because Goren mentioned that he was off the hook for the death penalty.

watched this again on usa, when they are talking to Connie on the porch, Noticed a guy walking to his house in the back ground in shorts and short sleeves. Everyone on the show had coats and sweaters. Wonder if that was a townsperson. The dates said June, that just caught me as odd. Love this episode.

This is a great episode. For me it's about everything I fear the most and everything positive that is real to me; that has meaning for me a single girl.
Whenever I see the episode I can't get this poem out of my mind and I'm not entirely sure why?!
W.B Yeats
Turning and turning in the widening gyre The falcon cannot hear the falconer; Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold; Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world, The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere The ceremony of innocence is drowned; The best lack all conviction, while the worst Are full of passionate intensity. Surely some revelation is at hand; Surely the Second Coming is at hand. The Second Coming! Hardly are those words out When a vast image out of Spritus Mundi Troubles my sight: somewhere in the sands of the desert.
A shape with lion body and the head of a man, A gaze blank and pitiless as the sun, Is moving its slow thighs, while all about it Reel shadows of the indignant desert birds. The darkness drops again; but now I know That twenty centuries of stony sleep were vexed to nightmare by a rocking cradle, And what rough beast, its hour come round at last, Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?

I’d like to preface this by saying If I”m nitpicking please forgive me - .....Just a detail I noticed during this episode - someone please correct me if I”m wrong but when Connie, Gorin & Eames are on the porch and he shows them his bucket with the fish he caught - Gorin peers in it and notes “a weakfish and a striper”. Well, from the size of the bucket I didn’t think a legal striper (28”) could have belonged to the small tail sticking out. A legal weakfish maybe. Later he exclaims he caught a “4 pound striped bass”. Hmm - a 4# bass would be about 18-19” - legal north of the GWB on the Hudson but not where the story was supposed to be set (?) A scrawny legal bass would have to be at least 9# or so, double what he said he had. I know this show was from 2003, but I dont’ believe the NY DEC marine regs have changed in regard to this since then.
I’m an avid fisherman and couldn’t help paying attention to something like this. Considering it was a part of that scene, and the writers chose to make it part of the character’s activities, I wonder if it was intentional that he kept an undersized fish to show something about his character (digging deep here LOL) or just an oversight on the part of the fact-checkers.
That being said, I thought this episode was great and enjoyed the literary references. I love obscure trivia and the show is so much fun in that regard ie. the detailed, ofttimes obscure facts that lead to the solving of a crime.

Great Detective work, mermaidct! I'm guessing that the writers didn't go "overboard" checking the facts about legal fish sizes. They were too concerned with the accuracy of crime scenes, forensics & sexually transmitted diseases.
Find it funny, too, when they don't check consistency in scene sequences. Like when Goren's hair went between being close cropped for a few scenes, then long. This occurred during some season 4 episodes when he was simultaneously filming his "Five Minutes, Mr.Welles" short film.

Nikki Thank you and you're absolutely right - I'm so used to thinking of G&E as a united front I actually forgot that it was indeed Bishop in that episode. You'll have to forgive me as I'm a relatively new viewer ie. fall 2006. Donna Consistency is great fun to watch in tv/films! Right you are.
