Jawak and his roommate, Chris M. Andrews '96, wore matching curly blond chin length wigs. Andrews showed an impressively coordinated look: a long, slim, black sheath dress with matching elbow gloves and a small black velvet cap with rhinestones, in addition to black fishnet stockings and shoes...
...shot, two gravestones, a smile. The trial can be reduced to these emblems. Or to entries in a specialized gazetteer: Rockingham, Bundy, Brentwood. A bestiary: barking dog, white Bronco, blond Kato. Names on a list: Marcia and Johnnie, Darden and Shapiro, Fung, Lee, Scheck, Ito, Fuhrman. A weird alphabet: DNA, O.J., A.C., L.A.P.D., the N word.

In this small-town, pastel-pretty version of Network, Suzanne strides toward...
Stereotypes abound in "Steal Big, Steal Little." The wealthy Japanese businessman does not speak a word of English, the ditzy blond wife loves her husband no matter how badly he treats her, the greedy lawyer betrays a life-long friend for money, and the crass Chicagoan has a kind heart underneath all the bluster, not to mention the happy migrant workers who are never without a stupid grin on their faces...
