Did you know
- TriviaWhile talking with Julie, Carl reveals to her that him and her late mother (Margaret), both had problems quitting smoking. He had to quit in order to pass the police fitness test. It was also revealed that Margaret Kinisky's cause of death was from lung cancer (a few months after she stopped smoking).
- GoofsCarl tells his father that he has never struck one of his kids before he hit Julie but considering his anger, temper and fact he was ready to take a belt to his 17 year old daughter in the first episodes shows that this statement is most likely a lie.
- Quotes
Julie Kanisky: [after Julie accidentally blows cigarette smoke in Carl's face, he slaps her] Daddy, why?
Chief Carl Kanisky: You lied! You broke the rules! I'm sorry, but the rules are rules and as long as you're a member of my family, you'll have to obey those rules.
Julie Kanisky: [goes to the bed and gets out her suitcase to start packing] You just said the magic word.
Chief Carl Kanisky: What are you doing?
Julie Kanisky: This part of the family's resigning.

This Father Needs Help
The father in this show needs desperate help for his anger issues. He seems to constantly be wanting to yell at his daughters and use a belt on them even though they are all teenagers and way beyond the age of spanking. And then displays this anger once again by slapping his daughter instead of sitting down and talking with her in a calm manner. Yes, we get that smoking killed his wife. We get why he won't allow anyone in the house to smoke. But blowing up at your child is only going to make them rebel, just like Julie did by leaving. Why is after the damage the father has caused does he THEN decide to calmly talk to her instead of doing that from the get go? At least Julies grandfather was willing to defend her from her own abusive father. Also the father can't see his own hypocrisy by forbidding smoking in the house but it's okay that he drinks.
