"The Brother" features John Christy Ewing as Brother Thomas Kelvin of the Order of Saint Dismas, searching for a missing novitiate (Gary Imhoff). The aspiring monk decided to steal a credit card and enjoy some of what he was planning to give up, especially a pretty blonde prostitute (Elise Caitlin). Inspector Luger shows up to bemoan the recent passing of an old comrade in a nursing home, and the last thing he spoke before he died (Barney: "what was that?" Luger: "who the hell knows Barney, you couldn't understand a word he said!"). Dietrich is assigned to mugging detail, but his outfit meets with no one's approval (Luger: "what the hell was that?"). Barney decides he needs to chat in his office (Dietrich: "sure, I'm just a girl who can't say no!"). Feeling inadequate, Dietrich laments that he didn't look as 'lovely' as Harris in mugging detail (Harris: "don't start comparing yourself with me, it'll just make you crazy!").

Oddly Out-of-Character
mspencer67824 September 2017
Wojo having the upper hand over Barney? Barney being made to be very defensive around Wojo? Stoic, reserved Dietrick belly laughing at Barney? Inspector Luger even more over-the-top than usual? The characters seem oddly out of character. This episode is not up to the usual high standard of the series.
