Interesting thoughts - especially on the characterization aspect of things. I'm pretty much in agreement with shooting2kill and cim3745 in that we do "play" with the characters when we write. And byslantedlight is right also, in that the reader has too see some of their own vision of the character in order to enjoy/believe the story.
Bodie here at the beginning isn't the episode Bodie. But as was pointed out, this appears to be earlier than the episodes. And I can see hints in the episodes where Bodie won't talk about his past, that possibly he could have done some of those things. And people can change - (Ray to the rescue!).
One other thing - can anyone tell me when Doyle got a promotion from DC to DS? I must have missed that ;-)
