    Even though our most important question was answered, there are still quite a few loose ends that we'd love for HBO to tie up ASAP:

    1. What's the meaning behind the opening credits? Is the little girl supposed to be a young Grace?

    2. Why didn't Grace immediately lawyer up when she was being ambushed by detectives at the start of the series? If her father was that wealthy, wouldn't he have a family attorney on call?

    3. Why does Grace cross-examine her patients like she’s a prosecutor and not a therapist? Would she be able to get away with talking to them like that in real life?
