Damages: Patty and Ellen Will Face "Major Upheaval" Soon

Damages fans have been slowly putting together the pieces of Ellen's hostage-at-gunpoint flash-forward all season, and when the final piece falls into place, big changes are coming.

"There's gonna be some major, major upheaval in Patty's life, and Ellen has some coming in her life as well," cocreator Glenn Kessler says. "The ground is going to shift considerably. Many of the things we've proposed throughout the season certainly do get knotted up, and these women end the season on very different ground than they started."

But Kessler doesn't get to just write the twists and turns heading Ellen's way — he literally plays a role in them as FBI Special Agent L.J. Werner. Along with his partner Agent Randall Harrison (Mario Van Peebles), Werner has been working Ellen as an informant against her boss. But Patty may not be the only one with secrets to uncover.

Season 6, Episode 22
The head, arm and leg of a woman are found in an abandoned car. With no hands, they can't check for prints, so the only way they can figure out who she is by tracing her artificial knee to the manufacturer. The victim is Mannette Combs; she had been in Iraq and injured her knee, then became addicted to Vicodin, then heroin, and was estranged from her family. Her boyfriend Leon Shragewitz (Glenn Kessler), a butcher, was apparently seen screaming at her. The Medical Examiner found semen in her throat, and Stabler (Christopher Meloni) and Benson (Mariska Hargitay) suspect he caught her prostituting herself for drugs and went nuts. They find Leon and he is hysterical; he admits to killing her by pushing her down the stairs at a subway station after they had an argument. As a result, she broke her neck and died. He left the body there, and as the cops start to track it, they discover her coffin was filled with five twenty-five pound sand bags.
