Night Country: Part 5
12 February 2024
The plot finally managed to break out in episode 5. Although there is the overwhelming feeling that Night Country has ended up in a cul de sac. The series was greenlit with a script that remained unpolished.

With the aid of heroin addicted scientist Otis Heiss. Danvers and Navarro hope to find the ice cave where Annie K was murdered.

Captain Ted Connelly with the help of Silver Sky Mining's chief, Kate McKittrick manages to spike the murder investigation of the Tsalal men's deaths. The forensics point to an avalanche caused by freak weather conditions. The men froze to death.

Silver Sky Mining is the baddie. Obscuring the pollution caused by its mines. McKittrick also has Hank Prior on the payroll. He is a dirty cop and he needs to silence Heiss.

An improvement but the episode is not without problems. McKittrick interrogating Danvers where she has no authority was stupid.

Hank being dirty does not look good on Danvers and Connelly. The man who kept files at his house. If Hank came for Heiss, then he would have had to kill Danvers. How was Connelly going to deal with that? Just too many plot holes.
