** The [[spoiler: [[spoiler:The fake]] Simon Ware's voice in "The Pig Woman of Sparta.""
** "An Execution of Trust" focuses on a psychiatrist who comes to Gillespie and reports that a patient of hers confessed to a years-old murder that another man is just a few days away from being executed for. The problem is, as the reopened investigation goes on it looks as if every character connected with the murder went out of their way to avoid being helpful during the initial investigation, the most ridiculous part being the actual murderer's wife (who had been having an affair with the victim) saying she wrote the accused man's wife a note claiming she thought her husband was the murderer, and then just never told anyone else after the wife died of heart failure before the trial. The episode almost seems to be setting up a reveal that there was a conspiracy of some kind to protect the real killer, but by the end it just looks like everyone involved with the case was a complete idiot.

* LesYay: In the episode "The Fairest Of Them All", Lizabeth talks about her best friend Dina the way one would talk about a lover--"There was something about her", "We just had this connection", etc. Nothing beyond friendship is ever implied, but the dialogue is enough to make one wonder.

* LesYay: In the episode "The Fairest Of Them All", Lizabeth talks about her best friend Dina the way one would talk about a lover--"There was always something about her", "We just had this connection", etc. between Dina and me. It was there the minute we met. Some magic thing, as if we'd always been together." Nothing beyond friendship is ever implied, but the dialogue is enough to make one wonder.

* {{Tearjerker}}: After attempting suicide, a young girl confesses to killing her grandfather after years of him molesting her, with the latest incident occurring even as he was apologizing for his behavior. In the course of her confession, she asks her mother if she'd been a victim too, which her mother tearfully confirms. Later, after angrily sending her own mother--who turned a blind eye to both her daughter and granddaughter's abuse--away, she confides in Gillespie that the only reason she returned home despite despising her father is because "He promised to provide for Mary Lynn and to never ever touch her. ''Why'' did I believe him?", anguished at the realization that she's partly responsible for the abuse her daughter endured. Gillespie simply responds "He was your daddy", acknowledging the sad truth that many abuse victims face--that despite what their abusers have done to them, part of them still loves and trusts them and wants to believe that they'll change.
