Jan. 15 (9:00-10:00 PM, ET/PT - “Dear Dad…” – The anniversary of his daughter’s death re-opens old wounds for Devalos, but Allison’s dreams and other clues could lead to the girl’s true reasons for her actions. Also, Bridgette meets an interesting character while working at the library, on MEDIUM, Friday, on the CBS Television Network. Olivia Sandoval, Miguel Sandoval’s daughter, reprises her role as Devalos’ deceased daughter, Arianna, and Roxanne Hart reprises her role as Devalos’ wife, Lily.

When concerned with 6x12: "Dear Dad..." I'd suspected something bad happened with Arianna to drive her to suicide, but I never suspected it was that horrific. And the fact that she did leave a letter and Manuel kept it hidden from his wife was like the final nail in the coffin. That really brought me to tears completely.
The actor that played the felon Manuel defended, then got convicted of Rape via anonymous means, was the perfect balance of damn creepy and somewhat unassuming. I really thought he was going to get away with hurting another woman and ruining Manuel's career. I'm glad Arianna fixed him up with a nice appointment with a bunch of mobsters though (aided by Bridgette).
