Series creators Heuton and Falacci wrote this one perhaps explaining a stronger sense of both the open and closed mystery aspects of the drama that was present in the previous two episodes and the greater attention to mathematical detail So to get right to the spoilers I missed the explanation of why the LAPD would ask the FBI to look into a vehicular manslaughter case I know the team initially saw this as vehicular manslaughter because they didnt see the original suspect stagger out of the trunk of the street-racing car he was suspected of running into a coffeeshop Hence the first strong open mystery thread we the viewers know that their suspect lying in a coma in a hospital was not driving in the illegal race but no one else does except perhaps the assailant who stomped his head So we waited for the FBI and academic investigators to determine this Then there were the closed mystery questions of who assaulted the suspect and who the actual driver of the cr

Question: Any scoop on the new season of Numbers? Pretty please!
Answer: Episode 3 will kick off a multi-episode story line for Don (Rob Morrow) exploring issues in his life that he hasn't come to terms with. "He'll find himself having to confront them if he wants to make professional, and personal, progress," says exec producer Cheryl Heuton, who teases that the "curious relationship" between Megan (Diane Farr) and Larry (Peter MacNicol) will also build — but not as a typical romance. "[It'll] bring out a side of Megan's character that shares some of Larry's eccentricities."

Question: When you chat with your buddy [Numbers exec producer] Cheryl Heuton again, can you please pass along that the finale was awesome, and ask her if all of the Season 2 cast will be back? Also, will Dylan Bruno be upped to series regular? Thank you!
Answer: Your wish is my command, Heii. "Dylan Bruno will be back, and he will be a regular next year," Heuton shared via e-mail. "We love our Dylan — though I cannot promise that his fans will get their wish that he appear shirtless. [And] it's a bit of a spoiler, but yes, all our regulars will be back next year. The spoiler being that Navi Rawat will return in the role of Amita. That's the one question we left hanging. We ended the season with Amita trying to decide whether or not to take a job at Har

Question: I think you're incredibly handsome and possibly one of the best actors I've ever seen. Do you have anything on the Numbers finale!?
Answer: Yes! The show is doing something no hourlong drama has done before: "We're not killing off any regular characters in our finale," declares exec producer Cheryl Heuton. "We like our characters, and we're just getting to know some of them. Can't kill them yet. Maim, yes. Kill, no." It's already out there that JoBeth Williams will be playing Charlie and Don's dead mother, Margaret, in a series of visions, but Heuton tells me that the May 19 season-ender will also feature a guest turn by Olympia Dukakis. "She'll play somebody's mother, [but] a very much alive mother." Also, Heuton shares that "the character of Alan will be central to a shocking incident that not only terrifies Charlie but scared Judd Hirsch — who thought he was being written out

Let's suppose the total number of viewers itching to see FBI agent Don Eppes (Rob Morrow) on CBS' Numbers (Fridays at 10 pm/ET) hook up with someone for longer than five minutes is greater than the sum of fans who believe TV math has never been sexier and you arrive at... frankly, we don't have the foggiest, but clearly it has something to do with solid ratings for CBS. Averaging 11.5 million viewers this season, Numbers is attracting more people than shows like Crossing Jordan and
