True. Good point. I just wonder why he had the name Herman instead of the Gooch. coz otherwise, we'd finally find out what that unseen character looks like.

Well, I know Herman wasn't the Gooch who already had real name-Stuart which I didn't realize or recall till I saw that first season ep, "The Fight", when BET aired it about a month ago.
