If I had written this review halfway through the episode it would have been as follows:
Too bad they decided to follow the cliché that Megan's father was indeed murdered. Partly because it's incredibly predictable, and partly because I think this would have been an opportunity to point out how things happen much more often in real life. Namely that you can very much want to believe something, but that does not make it true. And that sometimes you have to accept things that are nearly impossible to accept. (Not as big episode story, but as a side one. Preferably right around the time of the letter investigation.) There are so many people who do not get the answers they want in Dutch a case, it hurts me a little they deside to give Megan her perfect story.
I would also have written that dispite that this episode was strong. It was clear that the detective had not done it, that jump was a pretty unsubstantiated jump to conclusions. But I was curious who would be the murderer and remained fascinated.
But to bad, I'm writing this review at the end of the episode. I would still write the first part, but boy did they manage to slam the strength out of the episode in fifteen minutes flet. The real killer pretty much falls out of the sky, the 'why' story is short and tattered, the rescue of the therapeutic killer goes completely against everything about this show and is deeply unsatisfying. There is a very quick hug with mom squeezed in somewhere (you miss it when you blink) and finally a complete character change to quickly bring two people together. Very, very disappointing.
