Beautiful caps. And I really appreciate your insight that, "each actor's own intelligence, integrity, and warmth came through in the roles, no matter what the writers had the characters do". Hear hear! Why PJ felt it necessary to re-write (and 'warp', as you so aptly put it) so much of the text and characters' actions and words, is still a mystery to me. But we were able to see into the soul of each person, "whether or no".
