The best laid plans

This episode reminds you why this show is so excellent - it rarely gets wound up around a morality bobbin wherein hides some grand redemption. Much like the Wire, it never lets you think for one minute "maybe, this time, we're making progress ridding some small bourough of evil." The incessant malaise of human imperfection - and the constancy of evil - are always rooting from the trimmings of the constant gardener, God as it were, personified in this case by Catherine. The last scene, a very welcome allusion to Steinbeck, suggests that the only justice, the only mercy, is death.

Trivia
Siobhan Finneran (Clare Cartwright) & Kevin Doyle (John Wadsworth) also worked together on Downton Abbey (2010) as Sarah O'Brien & Joseph Molesley respectively.

Goofs
When John is in his car and rings home, the screen changes from his contact list to a screen that says "set up account" instead of one that says he is ringing a contact.

Quotes
Catherine Cawood: Y'see now I'm thinking - nevermind the Knezevics - I'm thinking that whoever left that Scalextric is going to do something... something else. Something even more weird.
Clare Cartwright: Like what?
Catherine Cawood: I dunno. A brick through the window.
Clare Cartwright: You see, I don't think a brick through the window is as weird as leaving a present on your doorstep, actually. And I don't think somebody who'd leave a present on your doorstep would put a brick through you're window anyway.
