1. No, Not The Pilot.
In fact, it was the end of one of the strans of plot lines.

The show killed off the one actress, and then brought her back, in black wig, as her sister. Chalk one up for Hollywood employment.

4. Yeah, saw the sister--just seeing her amde me think it was the same
actress who played the dead one even without ever having seen her!

8. Two words.... VCR/Tivo
Either that, or check the recaps when you return. I'm sure your trip will be more interesting and entertaining. Have fun. Safe trip.

9. Thanks
I think I'll just try and catch up when I return--I'm sure eventually all the episodes will be repeated twice between now and the new season!

2. No, not the pilot, and if you've never seen it, this would be hard to
follow. Each of the stars has so much history in the plot of the show, it would be impossible for me to even explain it to you.

3. Really? It sort of seems easy to follow--maybe because I've already heard
about the so-called diaries the dead woman kept. I don't know any of their names, but Nicolette and Teri are about to go spread the woman's ashes--how far into the season is this?

Thanks!

7. The episode originally aired
January 16. There are 2 dead women. One dies in the pilot, this one dies later in the season. And this is one of many, many different subplots. Good luck catching up!
