And how everything that happens to Stephanie is unexpected even though I'm permanently waiting for something bad to happen. I was sort of surprised at how reckless/dumb Stephanie was in the end, but at least I learnt to like Valerie and got a chance to drool over Ranger some more. It's not like I don't like Morelli, but I'm Ranger's team ;)
