Gin and Tonic & A Suspicious Death: The Enigma of Patrick Smith

But at The End Of The Day I really do think my dad was taken advantage of at the end. And I think it is sort of poignant that he did call you like a cottonmouth. So he knew, he knew it, but I think it's interesting that he was moving those chess pieces around and kind of portraying me as one way to this caregiver, which probably gave her confidence to make beneficiary changes and that I would just roll with it.
