Richs vote makes me wonder if you're on to something. If noodles is scum, then it looks like rich is trying to get her off the hook even though he's got such sound reasoning.
Thats another thing that got me thinking. Obviously I'm still suspicious of Noods and I wouldn't just put her in the lead given the chance that Rich is trying to save her, but his reasoning is very, very, very weak. If Noods is mafia, I'm going to guess Rich is as well.
