Betty's friend...say no more.
7 August 2021
When the story begins, Betty is taking Barnaby and Jedediah to meet a wonderful man she just met on her cruise. However, when they arrive at his place, Lt. Biddle is there...as there's been a murder...and it's apparently Betty's new boyfriend!! But when Betty sees a glimpse of the body, she's shocked and goes for a closer look....because it's NOT him!! What follows is a confusing story of Latin American secret police and revolutionaries vying for power by getting a hold of some list....but what list and what of the boyfriend?!

If it wasn't for the fact that this was yet ANOTHER friend of Betty episodes (a WAY overused plot point...making it a cliche), it would be a pretty decent episode. Not brilliant stuff but apart from the Betty angle pretty unique.
