Kanakaredes recognizes the conflict Sinise faces in handling a crisis he never asked for. By recounting the time Ella manufactured evidence ("Forbidden Fruit"), Kanakaredes shows Mac that a pretty face is not an excuse for bad behavior. Everything comes down to the evidence, which never lies, even in extreme circumstances.
I get the impression Ella deliberately hurt herself just to attract Mac's attention. Any romance is out of the question - the age difference is too significant. Besides, Mac has never encouraged her in the slightest. Stella doesn't want to see a good friend be taken over by emotions. This is ironic coming from the one person on the team who runs the risk of letting her heart rule over her head.
Eddie Cahill and Carmine Giovinazzo team up again, and their their friendship permeates the screen. I can readily believe they are close off set. It just makes sense Danny and Flack would walk into a wrestling match to find a guy with horns on his head. No, I'm not kidding. Anyone with those locks should have a permit to carry unconcealed weapons.
LaBow is probably not yet finished her stint yet, which means she will continue to drag Mac through the sludge of her life until he finally wises up. Since the next original episode is not until March 11, common sense just might have a chance.

I think it would be helpful if you didn't mix up the actors' names with the characters' names. Melina Kanakaredes did show Gary Sinese anything. Stella showed Mac. The actors play the characters, they aren't actually the character.

That should be Melina Kanakaredes did not show Gary Sinese anything.

Oh these "reviews" are getting painfully bad.

Thank you for the constructive criticism. Btw, it's Sinise.

Your need to correct my typo when you can't differentiate between a character and an actor is greatly appreciated. [/sarcasm]
