She Works Hard for the Money

Says muck about secondary education of characters in the series. Jane and Vince have none and appear regretful. Frost and Maura have degrees.

"How now brown cow": In reality, the phrase "how now brown cow" has no literal meaning. The phrase was coined as a teaching aid to assist with elocution or the study of formal speech.

THE END.
