...once again, as soon as the one and only white male character appeared onscreen I knew he was guilty. The main fault of this show is its total predictability. The plot is about a couple of Cambodian illegals who get murdered. The suspects are a black drug dealer who was hanging around their flat at the time of their killing and some of their Cambodian acquaintances, but one knows none of these people can be guilty, because of their ethnicity.
Anyway, Channary the lady killed with her bricklayer husband was a member of the Cambodian royal family and she had to run for her life when the Khmer took power. Channary could bring only a gold bracelet with her, but despite her fall from grace, once in the US she dressed as well as she could and behaved with royal dignity, attracting much jealousy. The actress plays the part of Channary beautifully and her last words to her killer "You don't exist" really made an impression on me. Also, the story - told from the POV of Channary's daughter - is moving.
Shame about the predictability killing the show.
