Nick and Nora visit Nick's home and parents. Nothing happens but light fluff for two long then a murder happens and the detective work takes off. But, by then I'm already restless and losing interest. Things happen, and there's some comedy, then ultimately the suspects are convened and Nick does his long explanation of what's happened, and then the murderer is revealed. What I don't like is the long time in getting the mystery going, I didn't feel drawn into the mystery, and Nora is mostly window-dressing kept out of harm's (and story's) way by Nick. Still, fun stuff, Nick and Nora were charming, slbeit often separately, and it's good fun ID'ing and enjoying various Hollywood character actors. Just not a compelling story line that pulls me in, so 9ne of the weaker entries in the series.
