i would be totally upset to loose one of the hottest and sexiest men around. he gives balance to her character. he is her rock and stability in her world of confusion and the greatest peice of eyecandy on television.the professor gives a good banter of humor for her character. but at the end of the day when one needs to have security and solace from one that truly beleives and understand you in these times, that comfort is jim. i think if you take that away you take away the ability to find a small corner that this is beleivable. he is the balance to her character. in the beginning that balance was aisha campbell, but when her character was removed he came to the forefront like a shining beacon and became the second strongest character there. and they work just right together like a hand and glove. if this was real he would be the perfect fit in your world of turmoil.
