The Los Angeles side quest that occupies a big chunk of this penultimate episode is a new-to-the-series element.
Of course, its Reachers idea.
In the novel, shes a step or two behind Reacher.
On TV, shes the least effective federal law enforcement officer sinceRobert Hanssen.
Naturally, this poor woman is ignorant of her friend Susans role in her granddaughters disappearance.
(I know a thing or two about a thing or two.)
Thats the best laugh we get this week.
Shes a good shit, her grandma says.
There are only a few people left alive who know that name, he says.
Her flirtation game is as sharp as her law enforcement game.
They still fuck, of course, because this isReacherand Duffy packed a very nice bra.
But it feels obligatory, even if its fun to see Duffy climb Reacher like a jungle gym.
EachReacherseason has given our abnormally large vigilante hobo an statistically ordinary, human-size paramour.
Id like to see him coupled with a partner of commensurate tectonic stature in subsequent seasons.
Is Gwendoline Christie available?
I loved that their point of leverage against this drug kingpin is that hes using a disabled parking placard.
Al Capone went down for tax evasion, so whatever works.
The button on this scene comes when a throng of DEA agents arrive to search Prados gallery.
Maybe all these other DEA agents are working off the books, too.
You were supposed to be working!
Zachary Beck is now sporting a bandage where his right ear used to be.
The green-screen work behind Maria Sten and Anthony Michael Hall in this quarry scene is laughable, Weather Channelgrade.
Beck tells Neagley the buyers are flying in from Yemen, but thats all he knows.
After letting not one but two spies infiltrate his house, hes understandably been cut out of the loop.
Now, at last, we see Teresa Daniel handcuffed to a pipe in some dingy basement.
Quinn might be a fourth-rate international criminal mastermind, but hes a first-rate sadist.
He laments to his hostage that hell soon have to deliver her to his customers.
I couldve had you all to myself, he tells her.
Use you up, then cut off all your pretty pieces.
Throw you in the riptide like chum when the funs over.
Then he forcibly injects her with heroin.
Theres no part of this that isnt gross.
The actors name is Storm Steenson, and she doesnt even get a line.
I hope shes bound for better things.
Its jarring to hear a real-world political family name-checked in a show this divorced from reality.
I dont want justice, Reacher says.
Youre not Batman, man!
He finally agrees to let her and Villanueva watch the bust from the van.
Maybe youareBatman, man!
), then stashed in the trunk of Duffys car, I guess?
Reacher says this wouldnt change his lifestyle much, though we know he lives off of his Army pension.
Instead of trying to arrest him, Duffy sulks back to the van.
Only one episode remains, and Reacher still needs to settle up with Paulie!
