*** This review may contain spoilers ***

"Daddy's Girl" is one of the lesser "Tru Calling" episodes in terms of its mystery: the only real twist there is that the apparent "mugging" of Tru's stepmother was not a random act of violence, but an attack with a very specific target. The focus here is mostly on Tru's relationship with her father, and on the links of the current events to her past and to the murder of her similarly gifted mother. Some shocking revelations move the show to darker territory than before. In a sub-plot, Jason Priestley makes his first appearance on the show as an enigmatic character who is strongly hinted to have something very unusual about him as well, possibly as the result of a near-death experience he had in the past (his heart had stopped for 3+ minutes). But at this point all these are still just hints. The major function of "Daddy's Girl" is to set up the upcoming episodes. *** out of 4.
