Watching last night's recap special....It sort of made mike's story a bit more understandable to me....

Mike dated diedra at least 15 yrs ago...

According to Noah, diedra's dad mike killed for her once...

Mike killed a police officer, according to the cop that beat him up.....

Mike served 5 yeras in prison on muder and drug charges...

Mike sems never to fight back....never fought the cop who beat him up....never tried to overpower the old amn that shot him...generally does not seem to have violent streak....

Mike is in love with Susan....who is still in love with him...

Now the unanswered questions:

Did mike have a child with diedra...?

could diedra be zach's mother or was she just a social worker?...I am leaning toward her being his mother....

Since mike had to kill for her once it may be possible that she was mixed up in something and he tried to save her and got caught up in also....

If she was mixed up in drugs and such...she may have been an easy target to get her baby snatched....

Did mike know if she was pregnant?

What will happen when mike finds the killer....I don't think he is a ruthless killer, so I don't think he will kill Paul...maybe just ruin him...and take zach...

I would really like to hear your views>>>>>

Hey there Sisyphus. I haven't had a chance to watch the re-cap yet. I sometimes lose my patience with the amount of commercials and TiVo it to watch the next day or night. But I was hoping there would be some unseen info.

From what I can gather, Mike and Diedre were involved/in love. I got the impression that Diedre was just a private investigator and not Zach's natural mother.

I know paul told zach that the person in the box was a PI....but I believe nothing that comes out of pauls mouth....He had told him at one time it was a man.....he is still hiding the truth from zach but I think by the finale, Mrs Huber's sister will enlighten zach or paul will be forced to admit what happened

So here is what we found out last night....

We now know that mary-alice/angela stole a baby from a drug addicted mother at the rehab clinic she was working ....

and since we know that mike killed a police officer and he did it for diedra and spent time in jail for murder and drug charges...we can say that diedra was the drug addicted mother and when she found out who stole her child she tried to claim it and they, the Youngs, killed her.......It is quite possible that the child is Zach/Dana and that he is in fact Noah's granddchild and possible Mike's child.....Now that we know or speculate that zach was born to a drug addicted mother it quite explain his personality and obsessive and violent and erratic behaviour since they usually point to a deminished mental capacity.
