"This case isn't about his kidney. It's about his heart."
So, I here's a picspam of Reed Diamond's scenes in Drop Dead Diva, a very cute lawyer show, I must say. It goes along the lines of Legally Blonde lulz.
No hints of Mr. Dominic at all... except for one scene where he exuded smugness. Heee.
So we get introduced to a couple who's having a divorce. Reed's Chad while his wife's name is Mindy. Look at that, he's taking the divorce hard. Well, they were married for 10 years.
So, they're having the separation of property blar. LOOK AT THAT. PATTERNED SHIRT. sorta PATTERNED COAT. PATTERNED TIE. o_o
Chad asks Mindy if she loves the guy. Apparently, Mindy cheated on Chad. Which made me go O_o "O RLY? WHY'D YOU DO THAT? THAT'S REED DIAMOND."
Their things are being separated. The piano, the wedding china, the paintings... they all go to Mindy (because Chad agreed that they all go to Mindy) . Chad's lawyers are getting exasperated. What do YOU want? They ask.
And he gets an expression on his face and Chad's all, Oh, do you remember when I gave you my kidney during a life-threatening operation? Yeah, I want my kidney back. (And I was all, Oooooh, he's trying to revoke a donation he made to her because of ingratitude. I'm pseudo, sorta applying what I'm learning in law school)
So Chad explains that Mindy needed an operation back then and that he was a match. His lawyers explain that they can't get the kidney back because of the law, blar blar, they can't monetize the kidney because that would constitute as a sale of a body organ which is illegal, blar blar. And if they go to court, they'd be laughed at.
And Chad's all, make it work.
This is my most favorite scene with RD in it. Look at it. No tie and a smug look on his face. Heee. Chad's lawyers tells Mindy's lawyer that in exchange for keeping the kidney, Mindy should give Chad $100,000. After all, she's getting most of what they owned (conjugally. haha).
So, next scene, the lawyers justify why Mindy should pay Chad $100k. Chad sacrificed something for Mindy. It's like a wife supporting her husband through med school, they say.
Mindy's all. FINE. YOU CAN HAVE THE KIDNEY BACK CHAD. Chad's all, wait, what? And Mindy says that her sister, who was a match, couldn't consent before because she wasn't of age yet, but now she is and she's willing to give her a kidney. And I was all, "Your sister is so nice. Isn't she afraid that you'll leave her after you get the kidney? Look at what you did to Chad. Pszfth." (Yes, I talk to my laptop when I watch my TV shows)
And then it's revealed that it's not about the kidney. Chad doesn't want to let go of Mindy. He said that being with her made him happy and after the operation, he thought she was also happy. And Mindy's all, I was, but I've changed. You gave me a second lease in life, blar blar and I want you to remember the old me, not the new me. To which I say, TEN YEARS WOMAN? AND WHEN HE GAVE YOU HIS KIDNEY YOU'RE GONNA LEAVE HIM?
But Chad's like a very nice guy and he says that Mindy can keep the kidney so that a part of him will always be with her. And I was like, Oh, Chad. That witch didn't deserve you. :(
Next on the list: Monk! Whee.
