Discuss this episode after it airs in the US here.

from tvtome.com

When five bodies arrive in the morgue and ask for her help, Tru's mission is five times more difficult. After learning that the victims died at a bachelor party, Tru poses as a bartender to gain access. As she tries to systematically determine if one of them is the killer, her curiosity raises their suspicions, putting her in jeopardy.
 
Out of the 3 eppys that I have seen I think this one comes in as my second fave eppy, after last weeks eppy of course. But the thing is that I missed the ending because my mom come home early and decided to take the TV before Tru ended.

But I loved how they somehow continuing to give Harrison and the others storylines also. I also loved how her boss got more of a role in this eppy, sometimes we just see him once in the eppy. But this time it was either him or Harrison she called for help. I love how she can get help from Harrison because he believes her after she saved him from going to jail in the last eppy.
 
i liked that ending..!! another excellent episode..!! i wonder if lindsay will ever find out like harrison about tru's gift..!!

i like her that was so sweet the surprise party at the end..!
 
This episode was great! I never thought it would end like that! I thought that the mean one was gonna be the killer-there I go jumping to conclusions!!!

It was nice to see the guy who played Forrest on Buffy! All you other Buffy fans recognized him, right?
 
Not my favorite episode, but I thought it was better with Harrison helping Tru. I wasn't as interested in the whole story with the bachelor party guys, and thought the twist was a little lame and too obvious.
 
Actually I would have thought the stripper would have been it. But the angry guy threw me for a loop also. But he had a reason to be angry.

Who would have thought of that the guy who threw the party would have been the killer? Though it would explain his reluctance to cancel the bachelor party.

Who would have thought it was in the ice? You'd figure they'd put it in the wine, but then how did one guy show signs of Abocardyl (sp?) in his system when alcohol masks it? I actually didn't figure it out until they showed the bucket.

I LUVED this episode. Definately my fave. The reason I liked it so much is becaus the supporting characters had bigger parts. And of course the introduction of Luc....
 
I felt kind of stupid at the end for not realizing it was the ice...after you think about it it's totally obvious! I liked the fact that the other characters were there a little more...especially Harrison: lovey :. I thought the bit with him in the strip joint was really funny...typical guy!
 
o, i know! i was like, it has to be in the drinks...but no, the ice! pretty clever though. haha, i luved the look on her face when she was trying to talk to her brother, but he was paying to muh attention to the stripper-typical- she gives the stripper such a bi*tch look! great stuff
 
yes, that episode was great! its not in the drinks, the ic!e pretty clever...haha, " why does everyoen think i look like a stripper?" lol, great quote
 
lol...yea, triple posting, fun...i am so bored, so im jst having a conversation with myself and whoever wants to join, lol
 
Talking to yourself? Sounds like fun, I do it all the time...just don't get yourself in trouble with the mods. Double posting is taboo so I assume triple posting is even worse...lol
 
I loved it. I thought it was kinda weird that the big angry guy had it in for Tru the second he met her... but it's all good.

I feel bad for the show! 🙁 It's getting so much better and no one's watching it.

And yes, I am looking forward to next weeks episode 🙂
 
What was up with that? The mean scary guy is really the nicest and most honest person in the hotel room. That doesn't exactly fit but I guess it makes for a good twist.
 
I thought the twist was really cool! I at first thought it was the mean black guy. Then I thought "nah thats too obvious" and thought maybe it was the guy the stripper got all pissed at. But I never guessed the poison was in teh ice! Or that the "would be" groom HIMSELF would have been the guilty party! Really great story line, REALLy great episode! I am so glad I taped it! I hope this show lasts a really long time. I adore it now!
 
This was a great ep, nice twist. i thought it was blake too, since he was all mean and angry and seemed the most interested to find out what Tru was up to.
this show get's better and better with each episode!
yeah, i recognized the guy from buffy. he played Forrest on there, the initiative friend of Riley
 
The parts that I did see I thought it was the mean black dude too, because he was the one that was getting Tru in trouble. But last night my friend told me that it was the GROOM and I was like OMG I didn't even see that.
