The Third Eye.

Oh my gosh!. Such a talent.

May she Rest In Peace.

Rip Third eye

I still remembered her though. Never missed the sitcom at all. Such a loss to her family.



I could remember the way she helped her dad solve cases. She would casually say something and point her dad to another angle that no one took note of (hence the name 3rd Eye). Before you know it, her dad would start ruminating on that and boom! cased solved.

Heavens accepts her soul
