You know, aside from the fact that Fraser is totally smoking hot in it, the episode "A Cop, a Mountie, and a Baby" is actually kind of disturbing. I think this is mostly because I feel really really sorry for the adoptive parents and even sorrier for the damn kid who has to grow up in that family. Although it's interesting how Fraser seems to have some really strange issues with kids/families -- the law is bad and heartless, the kid is little and sweet and needs nurturing, we must how the mother, the family must be kept together at ALL COSTS, even though it is stupid.

This is also the episode I use to justify every Dief-related interaction in kidfic. He's like Nana in Peter Pan, only with an edge! Hee.

WORD. To this and everything else you say here. This is one episode I can only watch with liberal use of the fast-forward and mute buttons, because all the sanctity-of-the-biological-family stuff is -- well, "stupid" pretty much sums it up for me. (It is hot, and I am cranky, otherwise I'd be more articulate and shit.)

Heeeeeee. I think you're plenty articulate -- because, really, what else is there to say besides "stupid"?

Awwww. It's cool that you can be so rational about it. Me, I see the words "A Cop, a Mountie, and a Baby" and all I can think is

PUFFIN FACE!!!1!!1!

What if Fraser and Ray would meet the kid now ?

He would be eleven years old (it was a boy, wasn't it?). And there's a good chance that he's hating his family. He wishes his father would have given him away. He's probably ran away a few times already.

Hm.

Hm, yeah, I could see that.

Or you could tie it in to your Carrie stories, where Fraser finds himself on the other side of the adoption issue and has to rethink some of his previous actions and beliefs.
