Leave it to Elsbeth, constantly shaking everything by diving into all kinds of avenues and mysteries.
Rather than imitating elements of “HowCatchem” or even “Whodunit”, this episode is trapped in one of the rarest mysteries: “Whydunit”.
While “subtle” is not the word most people use to describe Elsbeth, that’s exactly how it works when the main mystery is the killer’s motivation.
The more ruptures occur, the less meaning it means to kill the victim by Jordana Brewster. That is, until she is clear about her role taking care of the billionaire.
Billions of dollars can buy a lot, but structuring the right to murder someone is not one of them
Speaking of billionaires, if you like this TV fanatic, this is probably the first time you’ve heard the “Billionaire Route” in New York City.
You might even wonder: “How many billionaires can there be in New York City, and will they name them a whole row?”
Well, my friend, the answer is that there are currently over 140 billionaires with residences in New York City. You don’t even want to know how much there is in the world.
I would say the victim in “Tear Gas” is a sweet and lovely variety, but the man tries to murder his ex-wife Deborah.
There are many similarities between this episode of Elsbeth and Jamie Lee Curtis’ Knife. There are even major themes around the victim’s money and ability.
Personally, I think it is wrong for the victim to lose control of his finances simply because he made a luxury purchase.
If you end up not planning to do something about it, what’s the point of hoarding all this money? That was my sympathy for the end of the victim, because he was far from a saint.
Not to mention, the victims built large buildings. How is this done through the building code? As a terror phobia, I couldn’t even step into that high-level.
The second time, I felt the building “moving with the wind” and I would be nailed to the floor until someone pushed me away, and I couldn’t move.
At least this guy has a good taste because Jordana Brewster is the entire vibe of CBS’ Elsbeth Season 2 Episode 13.
Criminal or not, Elsbeth does have a way with wealthy women in New York City
The name “Jordana Brewster” can bring many memories of movies, depending on your movie lover and the type you like.
For some, the actor’s name stirs up a connection to the still-run Fast & Furious series. Seriously, these movies will surpass all of us.
However, horror movie fans like me remember her as the iconic Delilah in sci-fi teen horror movies.
For everyone else, you may remember Jordana Brewster as Maureen Cahill in “The Deadly Weapon”, a TV series based on the movie of the same name.
Still, the most dedicated TV fanatic may recall her as Elena Ramos from Dallas, and even – it was a profound cut – as the world shifted, she played Nikki/Dani Munson’s role.
It can be said that no wonder she killed it in this episode of Elsbeth. Of course, her portrayal is rather subtle, but it has to do with the character’s writing.
Despite Chloe’s luxurious environment, she has the energy of a woman who has to work from scratch to achieve everything she has. Have you noticed how upset she is with the idea of prison?
Interestingly, Elsbeth seems to have excellent chemistry, with gorgeous women wearing diamonds and designer clothes. You know who I am thinking about, right?
Chloe is like the savage version of Laura Benanti’s Nadine Clay, and we saw him last time in Elsbeth Season 2 Episode 5.
Why can’t we let Nadine come back, instead of this new detective, who is the personification of the right?
There is a new detective on the scene, he is the worst Elsbeth he has ever encountered
You know, when Elsbeth’s character made you crave the era of Danny Mastrogiorgio (Blacklist) Detective Smullen, their roles were terrible.
Now we have this slip-marked Detective River that completely messes up the fun and whimsical atmosphere of the NYPD. Seriously, who does this guy think he is?
First, he was everywhere, stamped on Kaya and Elsbeth, who were the only ones who actually conducted the investigation.
Additionally, he used “repeat what a woman said and used it as a cliché of his own ideas.”
What kind of narcissist acts as both heroes and victims? How could he have so much confidence when he missed it so blatantly?
Every once in a while, there is a person that is more annoying than threatening, and Detective River is such a characteristic. This shows the person who portrays the character.
If the mission is the most annoying person on Earth, actor Braeden de la Garza (Brutal Summer) nailed it. Time will only tell how long we have to endure the new detective.
Why bring this new guy when Captain Wagner already has a fully capable detective on his payroll?
For whatever reason, the series drags Carra Patterson’s officer Kaya Blanke into a full-fledged detective.
I don’t understand this problem. Before Lieutenant Connor derails, she prepares to participate in Elsbeth Episode 2 Episode 1.
Well, now that she has her certificate, why is she still shaking her police uniform while sitting in the new detective line in the closet collecting dust?
Captain Wagner needs to speed up before he gets stuck with a detective, a lawsuit waiting to happen while losing another lawsuit with amazing potential.
Have you seen other captains have a chance to seize Kaya? I don’t blame the captain in another area, but that seems to be insufficient.
Not that we have anything to worry about. This is not to say that Kaya will turn her mentor, Captain Wagner out, or abandon her pink companion in crime.
Can you imagine how frustrated Elsbeth would be? Furthermore, Miss Tascione still has the threat of Judge Michael Emerson hanging from her.
Thinking of this, his case is also a “Whydunit”. When the judge kills the victim, think about “an angry woman”. There was never a certainty as to why he committed the murder.
All we know is that, given the cruel killing, Milton’s motivation must be personal.
Everyone knows that once things become personalized, they will become ugly no matter how much pink you throw in this situation.
While Carrie Preston may be sticky, it would be great if the series speeds up the drama instead of grabbing bread. I’m at the edge of the seat.
Do you prefer Elsbeth when it’s more like “HowCatchem” or the classic “Whodunit”?
How bad do you think Elsbeth is when Judge Milton takes the next step?
