A very well paced second episode.

In a bizarre and shocking twist, the men responsible for The Boston Marathon bombing kill a Policeman in Cambridge, carjack an SUV from a young Chinese guy, then have a standoff with The Police.

I know I shouldn't find a series like this entertaining and dramatic, but the way they've made it, it's very pacy and energetic.

It's a really shocking second episode, it's so different from the opening episode, it almost doesn't feel real somehow, it feels like the plot from a wildly written action thriller, one you'd finish watching, scratch your head, and say it would never happen in real life.

I did think that one or two of those interviewed seemed to relish the occasion just a little too much, a lot of people died, in quite tragic circumstances.

Thank goodness The Chinese guy was so brave and gutsy, and had such an amazing memory.

Finally we get to see the faces, pretty shocking to learn that information had given sent through, and not acted on, scary. Tamerlan's story was quite shocking.

8/10.
