Ringer- Oh God, Theres Two of Them

"Mr. Butler, What happened to your wife?"


Breathe. The plot line of ringer just keeps getting more and more twisted, so before all of you get lost in Shiv/Bridget's mess lets clarify it a bit.


First off were taking by surprise the minute the show opens and Henry and Andrew both tell detectives that the girl in the picture is Bridget Kelly. Wait what? How did they know. But Bridget is always one step ahead of detectives, even if she doesnt cover up her tracks thoroughly occasionally... For example when detectives came to her house and she went into the other room and faked a "Bridget" phone call. Don't you ever think What If someone walked in on me right now? I sure as hell would be more paranoid then she ever is. She's very good at fake "hating" herself I might add. 
Juliet's teacher creeps me out and the story line was made oddly unbelievable by the fact that we have only met her teacher once- at the same time she met him. There has been no other instances where the two have been together honing a relationship. I guess the writers left it for us to assume that they see each other everyday and have gotten close but I just felt odd when that happened. Sort of like Andrew did when he got that call. And seems to me like Monica is going to be paying the price for that night for quite a while. I'm intrigued how the little trust fund brat will cope with being well, "poor".
Charlie. Good old Charlie. He had me fooled!!!! After Bridget confided in him and asked him to be her new sponsor, she decided to trust him and ask him for help with the whole "Where is Jemma situation." After she told him where the car was I was a little confused on why he was being so sneaky in a hood and all but then it happened!!! He broke into the car, cleaned up the blood at which point I was like wait, no. Thats evidence dude! Then he called Siobhan and told her that everything was still according to plan! The flashback of the night when Jemma was murdered shows Charlie doing the deed. He is Siobhans hitman! My question then is how far will Siobhan go? She had no problem killing her best friend. What does she want? Is she trying to frame Bridget? Get back at her? What could have been SO bad that her sister would go through all this trouble to ruin her life??? Also, when Bridget told Victor Machado that her sister was in Europe was this sheer coincidence? Does Bridget know more then she's letting onto? Are the writers trying to instill some sense of "twin connection" bond even through all this hate and madness?
Lastly there is the Malcolm story line. I'm 50/50 on this one. They really expect me to believe after weeks of torture to this poor man Macawi would let him out of his sight with two, pretty stupid, hitmen who would leave him abandoned while they went to pee and he would suddenly regain all consciousness and strength and break free. Conveniently he was also by his house to get his wallet and then knocked out one of the guys and ran away. Kind of a stretch to believe if you ask me but lets pretend I did. Why would he go to New York and lead them right to Bridget? He even mentioned that they will find her because wherever he goes Bridget is always close by. He's just asking for trouble. And then Bridget ends up fainting after she see's him at Jemma's opening party and he's at the hospital!!! How is she planning on explaining the baby situation. I mean she's obviously not pregnant! Or is she??? On this show you just honestly never know anymore!
