At least the writers have finally given Lia a motive for her involvement with the plasma ring. As we know, she is Chief of Staff, so she is both a successful and respected physician and a high level administrator. Until today, I found it difficult to believe someone with such a successful professional career would risk everything on a two-bit plasma smuggling scheme. Now, it makes a little more sense. I only wish the actor would stop telegraphing guilt in every scene. As Chief of Staff, she does have actual duties and responsibilities, and it would be nice to see her occasionally attending to those. Plus she is probably a fairly nice person who's caught in a difficult and unexpected financial situation, and she has chosen an illegal path to regain her retirement fund as she approaches the end of her career. It is really unnecessary for her to be played like an evil mustache-twirling villain who does nothing but harass Grayson and Ashley. Why not let her play some subtext in the form of conflict over her choices?
