Dylan Baker and Rufus Read in Happiness

I like the actor Dylan Baker. You may or may not recognize him; he’s on TV a lot and has had several supporting movie roles, though no major star vehicles that I’m aware of. His most memorale role, for me, was in Todd Solondz’s harrowing masterpiece Happiness, where Baker bravely and brilliantly, if somewhat ill-advisedly, played a pedophile who raped a couple of his son’s friends.

I was rather surprised, therefore, to see Baker abducting a young boy on tonight’s episode of Without a Trace, the FBI show about missing persons. Turns out he wasn’t a pervert this time, but a guy grieving for his own son who died two years earlier. But still, who’s this guy’s agent?
