NOT PEPPER!  I have a headache just thinking about it. Someone fetch me my pirin tablets!

I don’t watch it, but “significantly” is significantly different than “main”. The dog, the mother (is she all offscreen?), the chubby kids real dad, a school teacher. Think of a tertiary recurring character and that’s it.

Listen, I sometimes watch the re-runs of this show when it comes on USA and there is nothing else on (so I’m an expert), and I’ll bet all the money in my wallet (that is, by the way, very little money) that they’re going to kill the adult children’s mother and by “significant” they mean will have a lasting impression…

Honestly, if it wasn’t for the mark from the hypo, the ol’ air bubble in the vein bit seems most surefire.

Normally the answer is that it’s less confrontational and violent, but she had apparently already shot him with a crossbow, so I don’t know why she didn’t just try a bigger crossbow.

Modern science and autopsies really killed the poisoning industry. So many excellent poisons are now just too easy to discover from tests. It’s difficult these days to find a poison that can’t be detected.

Agreed. But there may have been a prenup where she got very little, and being his widow may have been more lucrative. 

^This. It was actually the old formula of Murine that gave the ingestor the trots. Bartenders used it back in the 70's-80's as a way to (non-confrationally) get rid of abusive customers.

Maybe she signed a pre-nup?

My bit was going to be, is that photo pre- or post-eye drops?

Iirc, there was an old formula that would make people sick, and a new formula which would kill people. Good times either way.

She’s been trying to kill him for a while. She shot him with a crossbow in 2016.

Someone is a fan of Wedding Crashers!

This is the one thing I’ve never understood when it comes to cheating. Why does the cheated on partner go after the other person and NOT the person who they were in a relationship with and who actually did something wrong? (this happens no matter the genders/orientation involved)

A mentally ill person being killed by the police does not belong in the Dirt Bag. Gossip should be fun and a little mean, not a heartbreaking reminder that the world can be a cold, horrible, dangerous place if you’re not healthy & wealthy

It has a lot to do with how things get worded during the call and the judgment of the dispatcher.

In a lot of places when you call 911, cops, an ambulance, and a fire truck are all dispatched. Often the cops are the first to arrive. Yes, even if you specifically call in a mental health emergency. No, they don’t necessarily send cops trained in mental health crises or de-escalation.

OMG I <3 that movie too much.

I really think he lost his mind about a decade ago; the DUIs (particularly reckless for a guy whose son died from injuries in a motorcycle accident), the peeing incident on a plane, now this [utterly unsurprising] boorishness (it's hardly the first sexual misbehavior from him) and...

Homophobia (specifically, using gayness to shame someone) is not a good look for anyone.
