Pushing Daisies 2.3 FAQ

What’s it called?
“Bad Habits.”

Who’s responsible?
Teleplay is credited to Gretchen J. Berg & Aaron Harberts (“Wonderfalls,” “Women’s Murder Club”).

What says ABC?
“Chuck, Emerson and Ned go undercover as a Catholic nun and priests and pass themselves off as investigators from the Vatican to help Olive prove that her best pal at the nunnery (Mo Collins as Sister Larue) didn't kill herself, but was actually murdered.

“Guest starring in "Bad Habits" are Field Cate as Young Ned, Samantha Bailey as Young Olive, Diana Scarwid as the Mother Superior, Michael Hitchcock as Father Ed, Mary K. Devault as Sister Mary Christina, Mo Collins as Sister Larue, Graham McTavish as Hansel Von Getz, Diana Costa as Mother Snook and Marc Raducci as Father Snook.”

Father and Mother Snook: parents, clergy or both?
Parents.

We get to see what Chuck looks like as a blonde.

What else is ABC not telling us?
Chuck decides this week to learn more about her roots.

Does Ned’s dad return?
Referenced but unglimpsed.

What about Emerson’s daughter?
Ditto.

What’s great?
Chenoweth generally and “You’re killing me!” in particular. The size of Olive’s pickaxe. The corpse entrance. Emerson’s disobedience. “I knew this afterlife stuff was bullshit!” “We follow all ten!” “Top-shelf fem care!” “I’m busy.” “That’s not even good gibberish!” “We’re motorin’.” Olive’s finger over Lily’s eye. Pigby’s hooves.

What’s not so great?
Anna Friel looks so good as a blonde I was disappointed when her new look turned out to be a wig.

How does it end, spoiler-boy?
“I thought you might want to fill it in.”
