In this episode of Pushing Daisies, Chuck deals with the pain of Ned
telling her that he killed her father. Ned is devastated because he
didn't mean to 'kill' her father. So Chuck lives with Olive until she
stops 'hating' Ned. Chuck knows it is about time for her aunts to get a
pie, but she doesn't want Ned to find her, so she sends Olive to go
make the pie. But Chuck tells Olive the anti-depressant in the bottle
is vanilla. While baking the pie, Olive tastes the 'vanilla' and thinks
it is to weak, so she puts the whole bottle in the pie! Later, Emerson
Cod investigates these 'corpsicles' in a boy's yard waiting for a heart
transplant. The first murder victim had 'KIND' indented across his
forehead. They have to find the killer before more social workers turn
up dead in this brilliant episode!

Because Chuck has left after finding out Ned inadvertently killed her
father, Ned can't concentrate on the case at hand which is this: an
insurance salesman is found dead this snowy day in front of a snowplow.
When Ned touches him, this salesman says he was hit with "kindness"
which was written on a bat with that word. This trail leads to a boy
with no heart who's been refused a transplant by this company. When Ned
asks Olive about Chuck, Olive reveals she's with her by answering Ned's
questions with more of those. Wanting someone to confide in, Chuck
reveals to Olive why she's still alive but Olive doesn't believe her.
When Oscar from underground comes by The Pie Hole's roof, Chuck allows
him to take a lock of her hair so he can find out about her. After some
time has passed, Chuck feels better and when Oscar tells her he'd
rather she told him about her unusual smell, Chuck takes back her hair.
Oh, and with Olive making the pie for for Vivian and Lilly, she puts a
little too much of the "vanilla" Chuck usually puts in resulting in
Lilly, who ate the whole thing, revealing she is Chuck's
mother...Another wonderfully whimsical episode of "Pushing Daises" that
takes further steps in forwarding characterizations. Like that Emerson
has a daughter he hasn't seen for a while. Or the revelation of Lilly.
Hilarious seeing her hallucinations like that of a crab suddenly
appearing! Also loved Olive's constant mentioning of "bosoms". Or
Chuck's of "bum" in referring of Digby's hair there being cut. Paul
Reubens is great as Oscar. And nice seeing Grant Shaud, formerly Miles
Silverberg on "Murphy Brown", as another insurance salesman. So much
good stuff here, it's too bad this is the last episode before the
writers' strike went into effect. Hopefully, it will end before the
season does. Until then...
