This episode was very interesting because it showed how little Alicia knows about what goes on in her house. Zack and Grace are keeping photos and dvds from her. Even though they are old enough to be at home alone, they obviously need supervision. I have to wonder what Becca’s agenda is, since she is older then Zack. As for Molly, I have the suspicion she was planted there by Glenn Childs. How did Alicia find her? I don’t think the kids lied about what Molly said about the HPV vaccine. It seemed like something she would say since she preaches about psychology all the time. Zack and Grace didn’t seem to have anything against her. Maybe they were afraid she was going to tell Alicia about the photos of Peter.
The biggest story was Ben Bowers dying from a drug overdose, and his doctor being charged with murder. I think Dr. Wesley perscribing meds out of the office is not a crime. Home visits aren’t as common as they used to be, but it is still a common practice. Calinda gets an offer to be a double agent for Glenn and Peter. I have to wonder where her loyalties are. Is she more loyal to Peter or Glenn? I want to know more about her relationship with Peter, maybe there is something crooked there. The most interesting scene to me was when Alicia goes to the pharmacy to find out how pills are perscribed and dispensed. The fact that some pharmacists don’t take the time to count pills or barcode them, is really unsettling. I didn’t even think that sort of thing happens in real life. I learned something new from that scene. I think when the pharmacy fired Alicia’s firm, they were showing that there is something to hide. I think that pharmacy should be further investigated. Since the hospital parked Ben for 15 minutes, I believe that played a role in his death. Maybe the hospital isn’t so squeaky clean.
It was a great twist when Calinda found out the gym guy also sold pills to Ben’s mother. I think the combination of Ben’s mom’s pills and the 80mg he got from the guy at the gym, is what killed him. That is pretty sneaky how Ben disguised the aspirin so his mom would have no idea. Parents think they know their kids, but kids are not always forthcoming. Alicia will eventually have to learn that.
