Did Nick tell Danielle Roget that she had to mate with Adam as part of the deal, and produce a super-race? This is the infamous (for me) anagram episode. Elliot breaks the case wide open by re-arranging someone's name with children's big plastic magnetic letters. I suppose it could all have been fixed with a throwaway remark establishing the importance of anagrams in the occult, but we didn't even get that. It's just treated as expert-authorized Fact, simply because Stokes says it. No logic or justification required.... viewers aren't supposed to think, they're expected to ooh and ah and switch off their brains when an Expert is in the room to use his for their benefit. Sort of like Auto-Correct..... Why would Nick or Roget choose an anagramed name? Why not just make one up out of nothing? Betty Carstairs, see that popped into my head in two seconds. Laura Petrie, no it's been used... Wendy Gigglesthorpe. Marny Sneed.
