Harper's Island -- Episode 7 -- "Thrack, Splack, Sizzle" -- 5/30/09

Looking forward to this. Last week's episode was great.
Be really careful about looking up this show online. I believe it airs in Canada ahead of us. I remember searching for this on Wikipedia 2 weeks ago and it already that week's death before Saturday's airdate for the U.S. audience.

oh, maybe we get three killings in this episode with that title. Either that, or whoever gets it gets it really really really bad.
From last weeks preview and the info in the OP, this could be interesting.
If we get three killings maybe they can kill off the remaining three groomsmans. Don't need them.

Due to a Children's Miracle Network telethon this isn't airing on my CBS station and they have no info about when it might be aired.

Pretty good episode - filled in lots of info about the Wakefield murders.
So, is it just me thinking that perhaps Wakefield is really Abby's father and that could be why the sheriff sent her away?

In Dayton, OH area, CBS Whio-TV played episode 7 at around 1:15am Sunday 05/31/09 after the Children's telethon stuff. I'm starting to like this show enough more and more that I hope it comes out on DVD...

Yeah I agree I thought it was a pretty good episode.
I liked how they gave us a little more back story on Abby and her father and the reasons why she left Harper's Island in the 1st place. I also thought the episode gave the viewer a little sympathy towards her.
As for tonight's death:
I'm really surprised that the sheriff and Henry quickly deduced that his brother was the killer just because he had Marty's phone.
Sorry about you guys in the Midwest who got pre-empted. If it helps, you can watch this on CBS.com the next day or via Netflix online streaming.

I really didn't like this episode. Following a rather good one last week, this one was just a bore with tons of flashbacks and very little development...
Wait, am I talking about Harper Island or Lost?
I'm glad the whole story about the money the guys found seems to be put to rest after Malcolm's death, but there wasn't much more than that in the episode.
I also agree about the whole conclusion that JD must have killed Marty since he has his phone... Very lame.

Felt the same way. Seems the flashback with the mother sorta hinted at that possibility since the mother had knowledge of "bad boys". Seems like the mother might not just have been running away from Wakefield.
Just knw when Malcolm was destroying the money that he was a goner. Wonder who lured creepy girl into the (dining?) room.
Really finding this show to be interesting summer fare.

I think they reached that conclusion since they had received a message from "Uncle Marty" about hooking up with a chick after he went missing. At least, I think I remember that.

It may not be enough to convict him, but it is surely enough to arrest him, which is probably their goal, just to keep him from causing trouble.

Maybe. If so, it wouldn't surprise me if Madison and Abby end up being sisters also. I keep thinking that they look a lot alike, and clearly madison is going to be playing a much larger role at some point.
