A flamboyant preacher from south of the border shows up with his revival group and a murder takes place.
To be honest the murder mystery itself was just ok. But it was the main suspect, James Wilde, who dominated the screen in the episode. Great job by Ted Atherton. He is sort of an evangelical only very honest about being a sinner. Lol.
Interesting play on what Wilde was doing and how the Catholic Priests did not like him. He actually made some good points about the differences and similarities between the two worshipping styles. This is where the twisting takes place. Also, on who the actual murderer turns out to be.
Wilde does seem a charlatan, yet he seems to believe in everything he is saying. Frankly, he's kind of funny. At the end when Murdoch goes to confession, you can't help but be reminded of the points Wilde made about Catholicism.
Murdoch made a good point by pointing out to Wilde, that if people really need God, they will seek him out and they don't need Wilde interfering.
Anyway, I thought this was a really interesting episode with a great performance by Atherton, who may have captured correctly, modern-day religious proselytizers.
