this has been mentioned many times before...Miguel Ferrer suffered a stroke in reality a while back hence it has affected his speech.

I knew there was something wrong with him... in the show, they even said something along the lines of "he can't claim he has a cold forever" or something, suggesting that even the characters noticed something was off. But I am blown away that he was still acting even with throat cancer... I mean, he was acting practically up until the day he died. That is a true artist that is passionate about his craft, and it is very rare these days to see someone that committed to their work. He must have truly loved acting in order to put himself through it up until the end... your efforts didn't go unappreciated, Mr. Ferrer.

I have no enemies, but am intensely disliked by my friends.
