The series started off very well and has a lot of potential. It gave me a lot of hope compared to the drivel that is being shoveled into our faces too often these days. It has style, drama, interesting characters and a compelling story with a few interesting turns. However, this episode does fall flat. It carries on some of the worst elements of the previous episodes with few redeeming moments. It was a slog to get through at times with how cringey some of the scenes were.
Edward bailing his brother out again...without any consequences for him over and over is becoming annoyingly repetitive. Their actions in this episode are more reminiscent of a poor comedy than a enthralling drama/thriller with comedic moments. Logic is thrown out the window and some of the characters' actions are best described as idiotic. The series needs to either tighten up Freddie or get rid of him as he's becoming not just a drag on his brother but the show in general.
There is still more than enough going for the show that I will keep watching and hoping the next few episodes turn this around. Hopefully this was a just a bumpy part of the road and it will smooth itself out next episode. The series itself has a lot of good characters and there are enough ingredients here to make an excellent show. I just hope that the producers can pull out the best aspects of the actors and storylines to bring this season home in the end.
