SPOILER Al and Robin

Again, SPOILERS!

Anybody else think that Al raped Robin the night she passed out at his place? She clearly was drugged and, as we saw later, that was the MO of Al and his group...drug the victims and sexually assault them while they're unconscious.

I think you are right. He probably did.

There's one thing though I don't understand: why would Al try to woo Robin and even ask her to marry him if he has this drug-rape scheme going on in his house? It doesn't seem very logical, from his point of view.

Because it makes a great cover.

You mean he counted on Robin rejecting him? Yes, that would explain it.
