Eliot's character assumes a major part in this episode when a friend of his is murdered and he discovers that the victim may have been having an affair with his wife. Eliot, with that moody, suspicious face really comes through here by delivering a masterful performance.

As always, we see corruption coming forth here all the way up to a man running for mayor of the city. Greed is commonplace with a possible scandal involving a real estate lady. Was our victim done away with because he would no longer play ball?

Carrie and Al are reduced here to playing subordinate parts as the usually reliable Jay comes through with valuable information from the computer.

Eliot made this story.

Although I have become hooked on "Unforgettable" and the show's highlighting Carrie's remarkable talent for memory recall and how then the "mystery" is solved (I know at this point you want to scream at me, "it's 'Unforgettable' stupid!"), this is now my favorite episode yet. It truly moved me and held my attention and it was all because of Eliot. I really enjoyed seeing more of him. I don't recall him being the focus of any other episode. I was taken with his demeanor, his style and especially his dry wit. I saw a larger range of his personality and private life. His sensitivity with his wife at the end was an especially touching scene, sharing the pie on the stoop, looking for a fresh start. I would like to see more of his character developed in upcoming shows. Encore to the writers. Maybe in the future we will know a bit more of the M.E.'s (Jane Curtin) background too?
