Hmm, not I. Previous IQs: Were you Capt. Frank Furillo’s boss on _Hill Street Blues_? - Yes, the sleazy, ambitious Chief Daniels. Were you a retired cop’s physical therapist and, later, his daughter-in-law? - Daphne Moon, not Black, on _Frasier._ Is that who you were thinking of? Was Henry Drummond, Esq., very much based on you? - Clarence Darrow, in _Inherit the Wind,_ about the Scopes Monkey Trial. I don’t know much about horror movies. I yield my earned two (or three?) earned DQs to others, one apiece. ---
