Smitty is gorgeous as always... but all the episodes where Randy is present are slightly overdone, inflected with the comicality and absurdity of this character. I like some small comedic moments in the series, but not when it turns into an outright circus, the Smitty moments would be enough for this series. Still, the episode is not the "easiest", but the branch with Randy spoiled the overall impression.
And yes, it's a very strange justice system, where Glasser could be locked up for a bunch of cases, and assaulting cops, and being homeless, in the end, you just need someone else to admit guilt and you're free, perfect...

@g1828211: "a very strange justice system" - well, you're watching a feature series, not a documentary. For a Beginner, 99% of this is just a fiction from the creators of the series for the entertainment of the crowd. There is little to do with real processes, even just from a logical point of view. And the further you go through the seasons, the more you need to "turn off your brain and not think."

I really missed Smitty!
Interestingly, in America, it is realistic that a serial killer can simply be released, although there are at least two witnesses, as well as a maximum number of victims...

@fleurt: Recently, there was a TV series - The Complicated story of Amanda Knox. In the series, everything is unequivocal that the heroine is innocent and the court was wrong, but if you read how it was in real life, then this notorious "unambiguity" disappears almost immediately.

@fleurt: In general, it is impossible. Well, if it wasn't just serial and not white, well, then in California he probably wouldn't even have been detained for a long time. But these are Hollywood scribblers - they have little in common with life.

@fleurt: That's how it works with all the main villains. A pretty obvious move is to set the antagonist free and tickle the audience's nerves. But honestly, in the case of Glasser, I don't really know how they'll turn the case against him, given the information from the current episode. Get caught in the act? Is he going to be tapped and confess everything? It's too easy somehow. I don't have any other ideas yet. Maybe Nayla will swat him down and sit down on her own - which is unlikely too.

"Foreign accent syndrome" is actually a consequence of brain injury, in fact, a violation in articulation, which is why a person speaks as if with an accent, and most often disappears or decreases in manifestation with recovery within a few months. But this is not a magic button that switches speech in the brain, on the other hand, amphetamine turns people into zombies, so what am I talking about?
It really pisses me off that these maniacs are walking around like fucking rock stars!
Smitty is handsome of course😎
Our Lyusechka is covered by this whole situation, and immediately after the break, the first shift on patrol🤦🏻♀️ why!?

@vk1891913: Wow, you've set a task)) I remembered exactly about this moment and was blown away that it was cut out)) but I've reviewed everything and I can tell you this) on the Zetflix website, the boss's conversation with Nayla ends with a call and there's not a word about it, but on the interview at the very end of the episode, before Bailey called the boss, there were subtitles where Nayla said "this whole thing about getting back in shape" and he told her "I immediately I'll contact the internal service in the morning to put an end to this, considering your feat today, it should be easy." Then a novice who was also punished intervened and asked, "Does this mean that I can wear a short-sleeve shirt again?" And Nayla answered, "Let's see," and the boss answered Bailey's call.

As I wrote earlier, when Glasser was caught, I knew he would be released. And who's involved, the lawyer and/or the prosecutor, aren't they afraid themselves? Knowing that he is really a murderer, it's so easy, for the sake of a career, to justify him. And if you become his victim yourself..
Who is Zuzu? Ooh
As for Glasser, in general, he had a lot to put away. Oh well.

As for me, the justice system here is very strange, shouldn't they have protected their employees? After all, in fact, everything looks like they kept an innocent man in prison for a long time, and again, how was he released? Were they fully justified ? Or is it still under house arrest until the investigation is completed? I watched a drama with about the same scenario where a cellmate confessed to killing another person who was sitting there, so they were watching the one that was released so far, and they put on a sensor to monitor all movements, that is, for a reason, aaaaa there was someone who confessed well, goodbye)

@niayzovazyra: Well, we're still watching a feature series, so we shouldn't rely too much on the real US legal system. In addition, if you compare it with doramas, then Asia has completely different laws. There is a common ground, but justice is carried out in different ways.

@niayzovazyra: As you never tire of looking for the logic of reality in this light show to watch in the evening...
well, let's try.
He was not acquitted. To justify it, a trial must be held, and there was still no trial. And it won't be. The charges against him were dropped. The prosecutor brings charges and at that time it is possible to choose a measure of restraint, conduct further investigation and all that. But if the prosecutor believes that based on the results of all the evidence found, it will not be possible to unequivocally prove guilt, or it may not work at all, then he can drop the charges before the trial and then the suspect will be free. After that, you can continue the investigation, but you can only re-arrest if there is solid evidence. And you might not be able to keep track. Surveillance requires a warrant from a judge. But even a released person can file a complaint about harassment after the first moment of surveillance. Then they can even issue a restraining order stating that it is forbidden to approach so many meters.

Zuzu is like a reference to a Black Mirror. I want to believe that there is a real person behind it, otherwise this nonsense goes beyond reality altogether.

Randy has never been liked as a character, it would be better to add more Smitty.

Nyla Harper is one of my top 5 favorite actors of the series, how damn good she is

And I also like that Lopez is beautifully dressed from this season, stylists are 10/10 no silver jackets and gaudy gypsy

Zuzu wonders what they remembered. Randy's fine, he's diluting it, even though he's already bored. But this maniac's line, which pops up every five episodes, is boring, as far as I'm concerned. It didn't work out for them this season with a through line. It would be better if the red-haired lawyer were returned.

When they turn on Bradfort, who is understanding and non-toxic, spouting cardboard phrases, syrup flows across the screen, cleaner than the chairman of the regional committee in Soviet films of the late 1970s.
I don't like the way Lucy takes everything she needs out of Tim. It seems to me that it is quite normal not to let an employee with conditional PTSD go on patrol, I would like him to put her in her place a little bit. I'd like to talk to Martin's sister, but a patrol without a partner is too much, I think. I don't approve =/

@vampironok666: I thought I was the only one in this whole story who was constantly being pissed off by Lucy.
As the hero of the series, I love her very much, but in my relationship with Tim after the last reunion, she is still a manipulator.
She'd be damned if she'd disobeyed orders if someone else had been in charge.
She has already started the series "I don't need a Tim boyfriend now, but a boss," which in turn acts like "Lucy's girlfriend," not a subordinate.
I wonder if there will be any precedent where Tim will include a real boss.
@lena_gorod: I was just thinking that there would be such a precedent in this episode that it would teach Lucy something, but alas

@vampironok666: That's probably why relationships in the same chain of command are reprehensible - you can't help but mix the personal with the work, no matter how you look at it (because at home it will turn out like hell). By the way, has this rule been abolished for the police? Or was he just imported from the army for some TV series for the sake of intrigue?
@alavitka: In general, they somehow promoted that Tim and Lucy no longer have a conflict of interest due to his promotion, but it's not clear if he appeared on the contrary.

"The name is "Suck" and the family name is "Pipu", and this is..."
Ahahahaha, how did I get carried away with Nolan's facial expressions🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Randy got hurt so much this time that he almost lost his accent.

I also thought that Vivian had told me about Glasser, with the participation of his lawyer, of course..

No matter how Lucy finally crumbles from all this, and it seems to me that she shouldn't have talked to Joan (the sister of the deceased) No matter how it turned out for her later.…

At least Nayla had restrained herself.…
@Hamali666: I also thought that my sister could come to such a meeting with a dictaphone and a camera..
Smitty I love this guy😄🩷

Glasser has already fucked up, to be honest, I already would have fucked him, who I do not know, well, or I hope by the end of the season everything will be settled with him, somehow he is too bored 😩

I was glad to see Noel Fisher again.🩷

Am I the only one who thinks Bailey ran into trouble again? Why the fuck did she ask for the NAME of a man with an Army special forces tattoo in the office of the Pentagon without a number? Generally "without a finger". But they asked her to just watch, and if she had turned on the fool right away without any additional questions, she would have left like a fool without suspicion.
