Private Practice: Charlotte Stands Strong!
So I’m a week late with these thoughts, but I knew there was no show this Thursday, so I wasn’t in a rush 🙂 As I’m a week late, I’m trying to remember all that happened to comment . . .
Amelia and Addison worked together on a brain tumor case involving a mother and daughter. The mom was afraid to have the surgery, even if it could save her, because it might make things worse. In the end she agreed, as her daughter convinced her too because she was constantly living in fear of what could happen to her mom anyways. The best part of this story for me was seeing the actress who played Isabelle on “Weeds” in another role.
Pete’s brother asked him to try and help get their dying mother released from prison. He went to see her, and almost wrote the letter to the system to have her released . . . but soon realized she hadn’t changed a bit. She has no sense of right or wrong, no remorse, possibly no conscience. He simply left his mom and walked out of the prison hospital . . . . I can’t believe this is the last of this issue. They’ve made such an issue over Pete’s past for weeks now, so something else has to happen with this story. A revelation about Pete’s dad perhaps? He did mention something about never knowing who his dad was (or thinking he had died? I can’t recall).
Cooper was finally let in on Charlotte’s rape, basically being the last to be told. It also didn’t seem that he knew or even suspected, from how everything played out. Charlotte, after one failed attempt (out of fear), finally ID’d her rapist in a line-up as Cooper stood by her side. However from the previews, it looks like there is some kind of technicality coming up . . . . If there is no justice after all of this then well . . . I guess that is ironically to be expected from this show to be honest. I have to hope something will happen though to give Charlotte some peace . . . . and hopefully it won’t be Cooper killing the guy.
I’m sorry but if they let the guy go just because it took her 2 line ups then that is crazy. He had a bloody shirt on him when he was at the police station, that was most definitely Charlotte’s, the police did take fingernail scrapings from Charlotte at the hospital (does not have to be part of a rape kit) and then there is the rape kit that Addison did. I would imagine that if there is a technicality because of the line up, the other evidence would more than show it was him. The only other thing I can think of would be that he is insane and cannot stand trial for some reason or the other.
