It can never be realistically portrayed in one hour. In regards to Dodds, he is suspect for sure. His son was his pride and joy and it didnt seem realistic that he would let her slide.

We used to see weeks pass by, not days. My take is that the time stamps on those date cards have become so unbelievable that they'd be better off just getting rid of the dates on them.
