Leiko:
Elaine? She started as a civilian aide and then attended the police academy while working at the station. In real life she was written off because Catherine Bruhier decided to move to LA to pursue her career. Character-wise, Elaine went off to be a cop after her graduation, which had been interrupted by a totally awesome fight in the woods. (“I Coulda Been a Defendant” episode 3 of season 3)
(I think if I was more clever I could say something interesting here about Ray Kowalski being Polish.)
Hah, yes, but of course, Frannie wasn’t Ray’s sister, but rather she was Ray’s sister. Simple, non?
Suri?
I thought part of the joke with her is that she’s wasn’t particularly hot, just young. And someone young translated to “hot” for the unattractive middle-aged men on the show.
Cerie. And she’s scorchingly hot.
I can tell she’s very pretty, but she’s way too young for me.
