Wouldn't it have make more sense for a story like this, for Tracy, to have occurred much earlier in the season? She's got to have been around dead bodies for a while by the time this story comes around. It seems to me that this would have been more appropriate in the first third of the stories. When there's a black out for a commercial break, when things start up again, half the acts start out with Natalie and Tracy in the morgue. It's nice to see the Tracy/Natalie relationship be given some time and development. Maybe they could have become real friends if there had been a fourth season. > 7) A Coroner's office keeps oxygen bottles around? Who are they expecting > to recucitate?

Actually, it's kinda cute and funny. :-) The oxygen is actually for the 'seasoned veterans' and visitors who come to the morgue and see a bit more than they want to. Walt Doherty wdoherty5@c.......
