All of a sudden, Annie’s cell rings. Of course it’s Kandinsky. He’s saying that she’s been a very bad girl for lying to him and he threatens that she is next.
Jane knocks on Nona’s door and asks to speak to Nona’s grandma. Nona says that her grandma just left for Atlantic City. Okay, who else thinks there is no grandma? Jane has the “missing items” flyers that were posted in the basement and asks Nona if she’s seen any of the items. Nona says no, and Jane dispenses with the charade and tells Nona to hand over all the stolen stuff, including Jane’s dead grandmother’s necklace. Nona pretends not to know what Jane is talking about. Jane tells Nona not to be a dumbass – she saw her wearing the evidence – and she knows that Nona stole Ingrid’s sunglasses. She threatens to call a meeting with Nona, Nona’s grandma and Olivia Doran. Nona swears she didn’t take Jane’s necklace, but she MAY have some of the other stuff.
Henry’s at work when he is grabbed by Commissioner Pike. Pike calls him in to speak to ADA Wilson about Gavin Doran. Wilson asks Henry questions about the Alpert deal – the development that turned out to be next to a toxic waste dump that Gavin flipped to the Chinese overnight. How did Gavin know about the property’s problems? Henry swears he didn’t say anything to Gavin, nor did he do anything illegal or unethical. Unfortunately, they have pictures of Henry and Gavin hanging out all over town so they don’t believe him. They say that Doran clearly has someone in the mayor’s office, and they think it’s Henry. They say that if Henry doesn’t give them info about Gavin’s dealings, they will ruin him.
Jane is still trying to open the damn suitcase. Is it really that hard? She hears a noise and finds the ghost girl sitting there whispering, “He’ll hear me.” Isn’t there some kind of exterminator you can call to get rid of annoying ghost children?
Jane asks the girl to stop beating around the bush and tell her WTF she’s talking about. Okay, I may have paraphrased, but Ghost Girl is getting on my nerves. All of a sudden, GG vanishes. The suitcase is still there and Jane takes it and stuffs it on the top shelf of her closet. Because a closet door is no match for an evil entity. Here’s a suggestion, dumbass – why not put it back in the basement where it belongs?
Henry’s at the Dorans and Olivia tells him that he and Jane simply must ride with them in the limo tomorrow to the mayor’s party. Henry makes up some BS story that Jane wants to go to dinner first. Olivia’s like, “okay, I’ll leave you two alone.” To Gavin, Henry says he appreciates everything the Dorans have done for them, but he thinks they probably shouldn’t socialize until the investigation is over. Gavin says there’s nothing to worry about, but Henry says he’s worried about any appearance of impropriety.

the grandmother was alive?
It looks like we’re finally going to see the scene from the vision Nona had of Jane.
Nona had visions about people outside of the Drake, remember the exterminator. I wish we got more Nona she’s the most interesting character to me.
I wonder if what Gavin did was the plan Olivia was hoping for, it seems like she doesn’t like Henry.
Supernatural has taught that to get rid of ghosts you have salt and burn their remains.
I’m really starting to get worried that this show is close to jumping the shark, and I hope it was just some kid-writer that they gave a chance this one time around.
Why are some of these characters so stupid? Like Henry sneaking in to the Dorans’ apartment without worry that as rich folk they might have some security in place (although I, too, find it hard to believe that the Drakes would allow the help to have full access to their apartment like that). And it’s bad enough that Gavin’s computer was not password protected — especially with those clearly-labeled, non-protected secret files on them — but why would Henry think it would be that easy?
We could go on and on about Jane and that basement, but I could by that she’s mystically drawn to the suitcase, but why is she not even more freaked out by the ghost girl who keeps showing up? A normal human wouldn’t be trying to open a creepy suitcase from a creepy basement in the dark when there’s a creepy ghost child hanging about.
And Annie. I found myself want to scream at the TV when she shows up at her boss’ house after basically sending the assassin there. And then instead of trying to covertly suss things out, making sure that the coast is clear, she starts banging on the door and screaming his name when Kandinsky could be anywhere nearby waiting to kill them both? Dumbass! Why didn’t she just call the police with an anonymous tip (assuming that she was worried about being prosecuted for the whole false journalism thing).
Last thing, as a fan of Lost, seeing the black smoke come out of the suitcase made me think (at first) that they were doing a crossover character and bringing in the Smoke Monster as a cameo! Interesting thing is that Terry O’Quinn played the guy who was the smoke monster for part of his run on Lost.
I just hope that they clean up the plot a bit in the upcoming episodes. I can suspend disbelief, but they’re starting to stretch it just a little too far.
Why didn’t Annie just type out that Kandinsky was killed in a freak accident and submit that? Wouldn’t it have then come true and he would no longer be a threat? The pacing on the show has picked up some so that it is better. Also, I hear that the network has ordered 2 more episodes so there may be hope for it not being cancelled yet! Great recap, btw!
why didn’t annie morgan just go to the COPS, instead of running alone to her editor’s house? what a dumbass.
does anyone else think henry is dumb/annoying? i don’t like him. i think jane should just ditch him & go live somewhere less evil (although that would end the show). but, come on, you can do better!
so, i don’t get this press pass deal — they don’t just let press into events without question, do they? i mean, i don’t work in the media, so i don’t know, but it would seem that if anything they’d tell you to leave if you showed up announced with a press pass more quickly than if you just showed up unannounced for no reason.
meh, i don’t know about this show. i keep watching it because it’s “interesting,” but it also annoys me at least half the time.
