The series doubles down on its strengths
Mr-Fusion16 October 2017
Riggs is in a shame spiral after a drunken one-night stand, and hitting the bottle harder than ever; Murtaugh's doing family-man stuff. Their case, although depraved, is probably the least effectual of any episode thus far . . . precisely because this is all about what goes on after hours.; the self-loathing cop and the well-adjusted partner who's there for him.

It's because of their partnership, their chemistry, that makes this resonate so well. I found it funny, engaging, deeply sad and still hopeful. This is really turning into a fine TV show.

8/10

Great episode but one major flaw.

Warning: Spoilers
Like Riggs, I am a widower. But no matter what, her family became my family. So when Riggs tells his former father-in-law that he is not family, I call bull on that. My former in-laws are still family. We both went through a tragedy together. They consider me their son still.

So to the writers of this episode, they completely missed the mark on this. Riggs cutting off his father-in-law like that is complete bunk.
