Oh, nice!

none other than Benton Fraser. And he was looking back at Lola in a way that he usually reserved for Frannie.

"Squirrel in the headlights"? That's such a poignant reminder of the depths of her delusion. The description of Ray as a cat is hilarious, I love the biggest-rivals spell set-up, and much of this is just eerily convincing:

“Stalkee?” Frannie offered, sweetly.

He glanced at the bedroom door a second before continuing. “The Inuit have a saying that I feel applies to this situation. You see…” He trailed of briefly, staring back at the door. “You see, when the muskrat and the polar bear…” He stopped, and seemed to think for a minute.


And of course, the toast at the end - cheers!
