Deducted? Was there a writers strike?


Hahahaha....couldn't believe my ears.

Confronted with handkerchief found in Lavery's bedroom Adrienne says:

"And you quickly deducted that I left it there."

Deducted/Deduced.... we get it anyway.

It is a common grammatical error so I would usually let it slide. However, the character's profession would make you think she should know the difference. Good catch.
