Okay, since Lost was five minutes longer this week I missed the beginning of the show so could someone tell me why Lydia has yet another new partner?

So besides that.....loved the stuff with Cooper, Ben, and Dewey.

And did Cooper admit to Ben that he's gay? Or had he done that before?

I have no earthly idea why Lydia has a new partner. That part of the writing was confusing and not developed clearly unfortunately imo. The actor is pretty cool though... I loved him in "187."

And I also loved the Cooper, Ben, Dewey stuff, but unfortunately those are the only parts of the episode I liked tonight. The parts with the detectives tonight were confusing and didn't draw me in at all.
I think Cooper did indeed admit to Ben that he is gay, but in a very cryptic and well written way in which Ben had to dot the pieces together himself to figure it out.

The scene with Ben and Dewey in the bathroom had me rolling though! That scene was hilarious!

Ben: "I accept."
Dewey: "It's not like I asked you to marry me."

Ben's facial expression in that scene was priceless. So awkward between them. Cooper's facial expression when they asked him at the AA meeting if he wanted to add anything was also priceless. Great acting.

And onto the shallow: How freaking hot was Ben in this episode? He needed to strip... seriously!

Another great episode! The Ben/Dewey/John scenes were awesome. Ben and Michael's chemistry just gets better and better.

And LOL at Ben eyeing up that girl cop!

But no Chickie. Again. I hate that she seems to have been sidelined.

So, I finally watched the episode. I didn't loved it as much as I loved last week episode but it was still good. I can't believe I'm saying it but I actually really missed Dewey, I like him when he's not drunk and acting stupid.

two of my favorite scenes were:

1. Ben and Dewey in the bathroom was kind of awesome and touching.

2. Ben and Coop taking on the ride home and Ben's "It's been a long day" line.

Other stuff I liked about the episode was that scene with Nate and Sammy where Sammy is telling Nate he has something on his chine and Sammy was also really adorable when he picked up that baby. I'm really growing to love Sammy more and more.

I don't like Lydia's new partner, I thought she had good chemistry going with her old partner :/

The bathroom scene with Ben and Dewey was very funny. I enjoyed the Dewey/Ben/John scenes as well as the Ben and John scenes. Regina continues to be awesome!! I am not liking her new partner. I did like her with the other one.

Uhm, did Dewey call ben "pooch" in the bathroom-scene?

I loved how Cooper thanked Ben for coming along.

Boy, Ben talks a lot compared to the pilot .
