I was thinking about Lily and wondering what folks think her dialect would be like now. Of course she she spoke French/Viet-Namese up to at least age 6 but who would have raised her after Magnum re-uped. My guess is it would have been mostly Higgins and she may just have picked up a proper British accent after a few years under his tutelage . Anyone else have any theories?.........

I know countless kids that have been uprooted, raised in other places and by parents with "accents" (depends on where you are). Without exception, the kids take on the accent of their peers at school. This is the case even into the early teen years.

While she's a good choice, I still think Jessica Alba makes more sense from a name recognition standpoint.
