This was an enjoyable episode - and one which did, like the Pilot, take dead aim at a serious problem in real-life police departments without overplaying the lesson - but it doesn’t feel like it’s expanding the scope of the story from the opening, so it just kinda…is. It uses the elements set-up in the premiere but doesn’t really build on them, and the least-inspired subplot of Boyle’s crush on Rosa is not worthy of the attention it gets. This doesn’t happen often, but I feel like this was a weaker episode than the Pilot.

Since you could theoretically pass the Bechdel eight times over and still be churning out the most misogynistic content ever encountered, this blog will also endeavour to evaluate that content when and where possible, offering a positive content rating out of five (five being excellent, one being atrocious, and three being the baseline standard from which so few episodes dare to deviate), and details of these observations and others under the spoiler-cut. Within the context of this blog, it remains a bare minimum - even if the episode gives me nothing else worth talking about, I can at least note whether or not it passes the B. We all know the Bechdel is not (and was never intended to be) the be-all-and-end-all for judging the feminist content of a text, it's supposed to represent a bare-minimum hurdle that all-too-many things still completely fail to step over. In which I watch tv shows and write posts about whether or not each episode passes the Bechdel, along with other observations on the quality (or lack thereof) of their female representation (as well as anything else that feels important to me, and hey, a little about the quality of the episodes themselves, because I'm just a big damn fan of tv).
