It doesn't in any way diminish my utter distaste for this episode, and the despicable way in which Larkins and his cohorts conducted themselves. Also dealing with any of these internet sites (Holiday-Rentals) in my case, gives you a false sense of hope that you are dealing with reputable people, and I would advise anyone to avoid both at all costs.

I really want to crack this case and find out why they are repeatedly able to get away with this.
