These charcters are flatter than the funny papers, even by cartoon standards. That makes for a plot that's a straight line from point A to point A. Timid, tired writing that has nothing original. An insult to its audience, particularly disturbing that it assumes kids are idiots and don't deserve something that requires effort. This should never have been made. It's pablum, but cold, soggy, empty-calorie pablum that will waste your child away. Such a waste. Of talent. Of time. Of life.
I enjoyed this episode a lot. One of the most cohesive plots and endings, yet still, for me, a complete surprise.
This isn't a fun episode with lots of interplay with Street and Drake. It's all business and lots of it. And a bit on the dark side. Shades of Chinatown with lots of corruption and a very dysfunctional family. Lots of levels to uncover, but it didn't feel contrived (as many episodes do). Really first rate story.
Not that it doesn't have some small plots holes. But they are forgivable, if not undetectable. I didn't notice them until I read another review here. The red herrings are palatable, minimal, and suit the story.
And, for a change, no blackmail.
