There's a Star Trek episode, "City on the Edge of Forever," (my very favorite one) where Edith Keeler, played by Joan Collins, asks Kirk to let her help.
Let me help. I think Edith says they are the three words that are probably the most powerful in the English language along with I love you. Last night, in the final episode of The Unusuals, it hit me how all of the themes in the story lines were built upon the idea of help -- a woman who lost her job helping one of the detectives (and she wouldn't get into a relationship with him b/c he refused to help himself), and a cop who helped a woman in spite of her emotional involvement with the case (or because of it) and how her partner helped her navigate through it.
