How she became a bad cop isn't so much the issue any more, it's just that no one on the force trusts her to do her job well enough to keep them safe, and so they don't want to work with her. And John's gonna be a dick about it, but he's also gonna help her fix the problem.
Exactly right. He's trying to get her attention, and I think he may have succeeded. *g*
I have vague, unformed theories about how his dad was more of a dick than he's acknowledged. Like, just the fact that his dad wasn't there during an assault doesn't seem bad enough to hate the man for life, you know?Oh, yeah. I would love to hear more on your unformed theories. I have a few of my own - for one, that the assault was not just a beating. He's so tight-lipped about the details that it made me raise an eyebrow. I'm really hoping we get a bit more of the backstory as time goes on, because clearly Ben has a few deep-seated anger issues of his own

Oh, yeah. I would love to hear more on your unformed theories. I have a few of my own - for one, that the assault was not just a beating.I've wondered that as well. The most benign thought I've had about the whole situation is that Ben Sr. knew an attack was imminent, and instead of warning his family he got out of dodge and left them alone. Now, he may have done it with some vague idea of drawing attention away from them, etc etc, at least that could be how he justified it to himself later, but I'm wondering if he knew they were in danger and did nothing to protect them/let them protect themselves

Lydia is fantastic, no doubt about it. One of my fave moments - aside from her complete badassery in the season 1 finale - is when the random flasher dude tries to solicit her. Every one of her interactions with him was hilarious, from the way she caught him to the way she was ultimately so kind in suggesting he get help. (And her 'WTF?' expression when he showed up at her door and asked her out was high-larious.)
The point here being that she pwns pretty much all other tv characters. <33
And feel free to friend me, the more the merrier. Although, fair warning, 95% of what you'll see around here is nattering about school. *g*
