AI assistant told me all about the SECOND-last episode & then added this touch: that the main character found some encrypted codes that solved the murder of Gh*slaine M*xwell.

She wears round wire-rimmed glasses and has her dark hair styled in a full, wavy updo typical of the Edwardian era. Her high-necked blouse is made of delicate lace with intricate patterns, featuring puffed sleeves and a ruffled collar. She gazes directly at the camera with a calm, composed expression against a plain dark backdrop. The image conveys formality and historical elegance.
On this day in 1874, Lucy Maud Montgomery was born.
She wrote 20 novels, 530 short stories, 500 poems and 30 essays. Her most famous book was Anne of Green Gables, which has sold 50 million copies in 36 languages.
She died in 1942 and is considered a Canadian icon.
This is just to say
I have binned
the condiments
that were in
the back of the fridge
and which
we could not possibly
have been saving
for any discernible purpose
I ask no forgiveness
They were antique
so cold
and so impossibly past their use-by dates.
My daughter and I are very excited to see this!!

Fast fwd to s3, second character talking: "Michael & I are going to try to make it work."
MICHAEL? How can dozens of writers, actors, script editors, etc. not notice that 2 seasons ago this husband had a different name?
