I could do without seeing a kid tortured, Seriously, this is not a Taylor Sheridan show where we have to see people suffer. II swear I think this show gets off on showing people getting abused but I really get angry when they use a kid's suffering as part of the entertainment. The kids mother was really stupid leaving her kid in a running car - unlocked - in the middle of the street. I'll never understand any parent doing something like this. A dull episode in my opinion.
I agree it was pretty dull. It seemed like it could be interesting. Random carjacking maybe. They were too eager for it to be the father. Then Rollins and her FBI people or whatever. Then, once they went to see dog breeders, they solved it WAY too fast.
Agreed. I certainly got from this ep that the purpose was to show the sadistic torture of children, solely for the entertainment of the viewers and, as a result, they offered a hefty serving of this type of imagery. We saw multiple scenes of a child being tortured and detailed descriptions of what we did not see. So much so, that at some pt it felt like those behind the show- and in particular, the writers' room- were fetishizing this type of sadism just as much as the villainous characters in the story.
