I watched most of it last night. I just assumed there was a trust fund involved. I am a banker and one of my current jobs (soon to change but thats another story) is doing an investment desk in a well to do neighborhood. One of my jobs is maintaining trust funds set up for adult children. For tax purposes and for the parents own peace of mind, this option gives parents less control over the funds yet not having the tax headaches of the $$. It could be written (and I have seen this) that if the beneficiary passes away the spouse and or children of the beneficiary gets the $$.

It can be argued to death in court though.

The teaser at the beginning was just what it was. A tease. I have noticed this in another show I watch. Your first thought was which one of the couple is going to kick off, you knew SOMEONE was going to die, and your watching carefully as not to miss anything. Then the camera shifts somewhere else. They do this on House quite often.

I LOVED the scene in the Dr's office. The look on thier faces when he said he was waiting for a married couple was a hoot.

And sorry to disappoint you, but I don't see or feel any 'shipper' like feelings when I watch any of the couples. No long lingering looks, no comments that suggest deeper feelings, especially when the hig ranking lady explained to the obsessive compulsive chick that the lead guy had minimal people skills. She sounded more compliant to his problems than actually caring.

Sorry, still don't know all the names, and it is still early this morning.
