Windfall 8/31

[newsposter]

What happened? huh? was that clip show at the end supposed to make us warm and fuzzy?

Except for the kidnap i can see everything just ending but c'mon, can't leave us hanging about that. I'm thinking the montage was a last minute decision. I'm glad there are no more so the pain can stop. That at least this soap was in HD. :)

Is the show officially cancelled?

I liked the show on the whole, but the past two to three episodes got pretty bad.

As far as the kidnapping, I can see Frankie's dad being behind it, considering there was that random "your dad is unstable" scene towards the end of the episode.

I felt bad for Nina. I almost wish things had gone differently just so there was a point behind all the back and forth pining we've had to endure all season.

[etemple]

I'm almost certain that it's done.
Can't remember where I read it, maybe here actually, that it was cancelled, but I definitely read it was cancelled.

[Mikeyis4dcats]

it had good promise, but the execution continued to go downhill and the last 2 or 3 episodes and it was just about unwatchable.

Darn! Another show canceled that we liked!

Am I the only one that missed the explanation of how Sean's money went from being in police custody after being planted in the lawyer's office to being with Sean in the helicopter?

Seans money was never at the police station, that was his girlfriends money.

Seans money was never at the police station, that was his girlfriends money.

I'm still lost.

- Sean wins lottery, but can't collect
- Sean asks Zoe to collect for him
- Zoe puts all the winnings in offshore account which only she has access to
- Zoe disappears
- Tally and Sean search for Zoe
- Zoe comes back, she and Tally run off
- Zoe takes money out of account, puts it into a duffel bag.
- Tally kills Zoe, takes duffel bag.
- Tally pretends to drop money off at police station, keeps it
- Tally and Sean get back together, Tally admits to killing Zoe and wants to run
- Sean gets shot, Tally grabs bag of money and disappears
- Tally plants bag of money in Park's office
- Police find and seize money

At what point did Sean get "his money"?

At what point did Sean get "his money"?

When the Russian came forward and lied about killing Zoe, Tally got the money. Remember the scene where they were told that a large amount of money had been taken out of the account after Zoe's supposed killing? That was their first clue that she might still be alive. Anyway, they kind of glossed over it in that scene, but the reason they were there in the first place was to sign the papers so that Tally could (for lack of a better word) "inherit" the money from Zoe. It wasn't shown, but after finding out about the missing money, Tally went ahead and signed the paperwork, which got her what was left of the $20 million. Later, Tally agreed to give Sean his half, since that was the original agreement between he and Zoe.

Not saying it's believable. That's just how it happened. :p

Holy cow, I didn't know this show was still on.

Too bad for me I watch one half of one episode. :-(

It was cancelled before it aired. It was supposed to be a mid-season replacement show that they decided to 'burn off' during the summer. It was never going to continue.

I still don't buy it ;)


I just remembered the scene toward the end where Park tells Sean the money is back in probate. Sean says "so this was all for nothing, then?". Park then offers to help him "set aside a few million and pass it off as money already spent" (for a fee, of course). Sean then arranges the meeting where Park ends up being at the spot where Sean is dropping money from the helicopter. So much for the money being in probate or the efforts being for "nothing". It still seems like a huge plot hole to me.

Park meant all the money would be in probate, meaning the half that Tally had planted and Sean's half, which would be "frozen"... I guess because there was a record that Sean's half was part of the original $20 million. I mean, if all the money was in the bag that she planted, where did Sean get the $100,000 he gave Tally when he gave her the choice to turn herself in or run? The fact that Sean had half the money is why Park thought he would be able to hide part of it. There's no way he thought he would be able to hide part of what was already in police custody. That would just be silly. ;)

This show was possibly the worst show ever. Now, I'm sure people can say...no this other show was worse....but when you look at this show in its totality...it just plain sucked.
