When RJ learned that his only child was dead, we finally saw the human side of Llanview's longtime villain. Although the ex-con has committed a laundry list of dirty deeds in the past, we were ready to forgive all as the tears welled in his eyes -- thanks to an intense, emotional performance by the brilliant Timothy D. Stickney. "Somebody killed my little girl," RJ wailed to Bo, asking to say good-bye to her lifeless body at the crime scene. "I need to be with my daughter...I'm not going anywhere until I see her again. I can't bear this."
And as if feeling RJ's pain wasn't bad enough, seeing Bo remember Drew's passing -- which ironically happened on the same day years earlier -- added salt to the wound. Perhaps the police commissioner summed it up best: "It's the worst wrong that will ever be -- another young person has lost her life long before her time."
