FBI (TV Series) Know Thyself (2021) User Reviews

Great Episode

[Stone-Author · 9/10 · 13 October 2021]

This episode was brilliant in every way, but the ending was beyond infuriating but thinking about it now its pretty realistic. Plenty white people have lied to the FBI in past episodes and managed to walk without repercussion. Yet, the black pastor is to be made an example of and charged with a felony in lying to an FBI agent.

It's so subtle but it's right there.

Realistic episode

[Saving21 · 8/10 · 13 October 2021]

This episode was good. The plot was interesting and realistic. I loved that the focus was on the second team of Scola and Wallace, this episode made their dynamic to be as interesting as Maggie&OA. The episode had me thinking if there could have been other way to finish it, should Scola talked W/Wallace and maybe she could have learned the truth from her cousin W/out him endangering himself with his job as pastor, would he told her the truth?. And as someone here said, many times people lied to the agents ,did they got arrested?. But maybe this case was different, bc it was during interrogation and bc of his lies they didn't find the murder in time, causing the death of him and his victim. Good episode in all fronts.

Interesting, Intriguing

[AnimatedCritic · 8/10 · 22 October 2021]

I thought this episode was pretty good. I like how we get to see Tiffany's family, and their lives. I really liked the drama with Tiffany questioning if her cousin is a murderer, and the cousin's story was also pretty good. The mystery was good, but it felt really slow at the beginning. I also really liked the ending with Tiffany and Scola questioning their partnership.

Overall, it was an intriguing, and solid episode.

Murderer

[mochagary · 10/10 · 13 October 2021]

Did Tiffany's cousin commit the murder's?? I missed the second half!! I really don't have 150 word's to put in context!! Lol just wanted to ask that question please......

And the answer is

[cpotato1010 · 8/10 · 13 October 2021]

For the one reviewer, the answer is "no".

For the other reviewer, don't make too much of the skin color. That ending was to contrast the pastor's punishment with the light punishment of Agent Wallace for disobedience. After all, his lies may have cost the life of the last victim.

There was a little of the boiler-plate type writing in this episode, the attacks on the homeless/poor victims. Yet these victims are attending some club? With what money?

Even the connection of Agent Wallace to one of the potential suspects has been done before.

One of the highlights of this episode is Missy Peregrym (Agent Bell). Ever the pit-bull.

A Good Episode&An Even Better Lesson To Learn

[Mellie75 · 8/10 · 21 May 2024]

This was a decent episode featuring Scuola and Tiff for a change. Though it had a disappointing conclusion, it reflected reality which makes sense. However, if you ever need an example of why you should not to talk to the police without your lawyer, you have now seen one.

The writers justified the fact that the only person who will see the inside of a jail cell had nothing to do with the serial crimes by laying the blame for the deaths of the last victim and killer on the pastor's reluctance to explain why he was at the club. The reality was that the bodies had been piling up for a fortnight before they even questioned the pastor because everyone had failed to notice or care that over half a dozen men had disappeared and if he'd insisted on a lawyer, the short delay in getting one to advise him would have saved him a world of trouble.

If the authorities valued the help of citizens, they would grant automatic immunity to witnesses who turn out to have no role in the crime they're investigating. Since, they don't give you that immunity unless your lawyer negotiates it for you, shut up until that happens.

If you need more reasons to stand up for your rights there's a lecture by a law professor at Regent University on YouTube that will enlighten you on why you "Don't Talk To The Police".

Inconsistent consequences

[krish-mayfield · 2/10 · 13 October 2021]

I am so over the double standard on this show. I am not sure if it is intended but apparently on O. A. and Tiff ever face any consequences. Sad to say it is realistic but hate to see the best characters always catching heck.

Good episode Bad Ending

[rayhollings · 1/10 · 20 May 2022]

Felony charge of lying the FBI had the wrong person.

Tiffany didn't even advise her cousin to get a lawyer and not say anything.

Tiffany should be mad at herself and lack of determination to help her family.
