what fun! I was sad that nobody saw through the Stepford Mountie (great description!) except Ray. Poor Fraser! But the story was hilarious and sweet.
I loved Real!Fraser making his stand against the aliens, backed by his Dad:
Fraser shook his head. "It was unconscionable for you to steal my life away from me and deceive my friends and coworkers." He gave them his full, righteous glare. "If you persist in this course, I will be unfair."
The aliens gasped.
"I will be partial!"
"That's telling 'em, son!" His father was blinking in and out behind him like a radio signal during a solar flare.
"If you do not return me to Earth this instant, I will decide the contest against you."
go, Frase! and I loved the scene where he reclaimed his life from the clone:
Fraser turned to him, fierce and intense. "How dare you steal my life, make a mockery of my duty, and try to seduce my Ray!"
I really liked the happy ending for everyone--the aliens, the clone, and Ray & Fraser (plus extra points for delighted Turnbull!)
