Her three sons are weenies at best, psychopathic, drug-addicted douchebags at worst.
No wonder she constantly has a look of disappointment on her face.
Take Thomas, who we spend more time with in episode two.
Thomas is not a complicated person to figure out.
Thomas is a complete asshole.
Theres not one person, and Im including his wife in this, who actually likes him.
His mother, maybe, tolerates him?
From the very beginning, we understand the way he works.
He goes immediately from that conversation to cruelly ripping into Benji;heslooking for someone to dominate.
Hes trying to find someone he can make feel small, the way he feels in his marriage.
But its bigger than just his marriage.
A very cool, very chill parent/child relationship.
Its more than just an affair to him, though; hes in love with her, he says.
Isabel is definitely only in this for the sex and drugs, to be clear.
Greer is in control of everything going on in this house, is what Im saying.
So why is ol GGdubs scrambling to get the story she wants out there?
It all has to do with Tag, of course.
He doesnt want them bringing in hotshot lawyers to shut things down.
The minute [these people] feel like theyre losing control, they burn it all down.
He knows what hes doing.
Its enough to convince Henry it feels like the two cops are willing to become a team now.
We find them at the bar later trying to piece together the events of the evening.
But is her frustration with her husband rooted in something deeper?
What does Greer know at this point?
He knows that Amelia knows the truth.
What does she do?
She drives herself over to the police station to tell Henry and Carter what she knows.
And what she knows is that Merritt was pregnant with Tags baby.
Shes known the whole time.
So, uh, yes, one might say Greer definitely has a motive.
Abby remains the absolute worst (by which I mean best, obviously).
Even the way she calls Merritt such a cool girl sounds scathing.
Shooter Dival has shot up on the suspect list.
(Although its so early in the season, I doubt it could be him.)
Gosia doesnt trust Shooter because he makes his bed, like a poor person.
Another piece of evidence that washes up on shore: A mans suit jacket.
Greer ignores another call from Broderick Graham who is this guy?
A perfect character moment: Greer rolling calls about the canceled wedding.
Donna Lynne Champlin is so good in this role.
