No Further Questions, Your Honor?
The smug killers lie and escape punishment and refuse to testify. Marta's body has still not been found. Lawyers justify their crap. There is victim blaming and lies and cover ups and no justice. People are increasingly frustrated by the court coddling the murderers. Everyone likes to have their opinion.
There is no greatness. There is talk of a till being locked and missing money. Some bum showed up in court looking like a homeless junkie. There is animosity and people vigorously defend their crapulence. People only cared about their own purposes. Killers were acquitted.
Who was the 3rd person involved? The scum are oppressive and aggressive. There is a personal vendetta and people are fragile. People say I don't remember a lot. This leaves you impatient and yet another version of events are spun.
This was samey and clumsy and awkward. This case was the worst thing you could inflict. The case was closed. There is a truth test and a bumpy ride. People were deeply distrusted. This was unsuccessful. There is trauma and isolation and despair. There is talk of real estate and tax fraud. There is violent chaos. This was a dissonant jumble.
The case is still devastating people. There is no bleak clarity just cynical and ruthless scum. This was full of low resilience and deep despair and people you can't abide. There is talk of phone records and justice is disregarded. There is ill informed comment and CCTV and misjudged positions. There are expressions of concern and clamorous times and devastating impacts. The family suffers terrily. The unthinkable uncomfortable truth is still awaited. There is anxiety and dread and things still drag on.
Best Lines:
“Menacing.”
“Grotesque sight.”
“Cocky attiude.”
“Wasn't insignificant.”
“Justice and social laws are far from satisfactory.”
“Legal truth.”
“Something is wrong with justice.”
“Deal with the body.”
“Devastating ruling.”
“There's no interest.”
“Archive the case.”

“I'll get you locked up.”
“No digging here!”
“Buried crowns that guard the realm.”

The Devil's Throat 1x06
The Usual Suspects
A beekeeper is a near killer. Woods are very well lit. The idiot daughter is dumb. The hot cop broods. The hot cop is horny and there is male anger. The hot cop and his bro have a shoving match. The beekeeper Kolyo is scum.
Mia is intransigent. This was ineffective. Miscreants go unpunished. Men are gratuitously awful and deeply unhelpful. There is no reputational damage. There is evil intent. This was an uncomfortable story. There is inappropriate conduct. There are harsh results.
This was haphazard and a blunder. Things go disastrously and leads to disaster. This was cataclysmic. A scapegoat is sought. There are serious concerns.
There are far reaching dangerous consequences. The bully cop wears a sleeveless shirt showing off his tats. There is discontent and babbling and damaging decisions and hostile talk of a scarf not looking local. This was not entirely disquieting. Mia has arrogance. There are inconvenient and desperate migrants. There are mountains and damp looking forest.
Where's the bogeyman? This was futile. The case splits friendships and family. People make choices they should be ashamed of. A harbinger lurks and there is inadequacy. We see a translated copy of 'Catcher In The Rye' and a box o'stuff. There is inertia and banalities and pained imprecations. A cat is seen. Donka is worried. There is waffle.
Mia's idiot daughter is in peril. There are mad ideas and harm is done. There are anxieties and antagonisms and accommodations. Mia makes an accusation. Hot cop's bro is an ex-cop? The accusation is damaging to all concerned. This was weak and Filip threatens to quit if Mia stays.
Best Lines:
“Of course I'm alone.”
“Loser!”
“No one cares for the living.”
“Listen, you moron!”
“I would've messed him up just fine.”
“Check the criminal contingent.”
“How did the tobacco shed burn down.”
“Your child is drowning in blood.”

UFO 1x14&1x15
Mindbender
Ed Bishop who played Straker died in 2005. There is racism and hallcinations. This was lifeless and trite. The gammon shows up again. Grown men made baaing noises at each other. Is this a clip show?
Flight Path
A man with a bimbo wife is bothered. Toothpaste or what looks like it is used to repair a damaged spacesuit. What is a moon-hopper? This bored.

La Brea 1x07
The Storm
Eve justifies her crap. The stoner points out there could be other sinkholes. The cop scoffs when told to give up her gun - she murdered a woman and her husband. Eve and the worst cop ever are ordered to leave. Gavin is called on his crap. Gavin suddenly goes on about how he was adopted as a foundling and wants to rescue Eve, he seems to have forgotten he has a son. The 'natives' speak English and babble about sky people. A storm blows up. The stoner references 'Lost'. This was okay, even if Eve gets forgiven.
