Personally, I adored Mae/Etc's plum coat with the bracelet sleeves and her little tote was also pretty cute. Whitney was also sporting a lovely gray bag.

Not much to learn about Laura in the Pilot. I had already read that she was a widow in either a show description or a review in the media, and so the big "reveal" was totally lost on me. Her husband was a news reporter in Iraq, she has a daughter, she is starting a new job as an interior decorator, she speaks Vietnamese. I feel like we've gotten more inside her, though, as she is so obviously sad and broken. No plot gimmicks needed.

I loved her Sonic Youth t-shirt, and her breakdown in the street was probably the most moving thing to me about the episode.

What bothered me a little: as some mentioned in the ep thread, it's true that everyone grieves differently, but I was a bit taken aback when I found out it had been only six months since her husband died. It seemed way too soon to be getting rid of his stuff. Also, maybe I am cynical or have known too many paranoid mothers, but I was surprised that she didn't question Mae/Claire more, especially when she wanted to leave and was clearly troubled.

As for Hope Davis, I've already rhapsodized about her in the Other Roles thread, but she is one of my very favorite actresses and has been on my Must-See list ever since The Daytrippers and Next Stop, Wonderland. I would literally watch her in anything, even if it was just reading the phone book while watching paint dry. Which is probably why I'm so much more invested in Laura so far.]]> Thu, 28 Sep 2006 04:14:11 -0400 http://forums.televisionwithoutpity.com/index.php?showtopic=3146462 Speculation Without Spoilers http://forums.televisionwithoutpity.com/index.php?showtopic=3146242 Fri, 22 Sep 2006 13:05:42 -0400 http://forums.televisionwithoutpity.com/index.php?showtopic=3146242
