This show is still treading the line between partly subpar and potentially very good. This episode was weak. The format of which it was navigated wasn't that engaging. The conclusion was obvious from the start, and quite frankly, also a cop-out. It was made to make you think the team was starting to have enough of Malcolm, and rightfully so, except it was all planned, conveniently enough, by Malcolm. Even though their misgivings, stated solely as apart of the plan, were genuine, it went nowhere, because, again, it was all planned, all orchestrated, and that was disappointing.
I love that this show gets most of the psychoanalytical stuff right. This episode's story structure also made it one of the most interesting ones so far. But the police procedural stuff is always so cliched and nonsensical.
