This was a little creepy, but always nice to see Peter Weller (of Robocop, Buckaroo Banzai fame) working again. Now he played a "cleaner" of sorts running on scam on easy marks indulging in the prostitution profession. Now I find the manner in which this guy getting rid of bodies ironic considering Joey Pants' role as Ralphie on Sopranos.

The other case with Lily and Darnell was a case of just being as "out there" and bad acting on display.

At least with Boomtown off the air for a few weeks, I can watch this in its place. I kinda like it

The main case with Peter Weller was good. His character was creepy.

The bar case was boring for the most part.

This was a pretty good ep. Peter Weller is really starting to look old. I know the other case was dull, but I think Hill Harper does a good job on this show.

What was the point of the one agent grabbing the shotgun and robbing the bar?

He got the guy to give over his car keys, so the two men had to drive the bartender's car, which was bugged.

I liked this episode. It was a lot more serious (except for the bar stuff) than previous episodes. The killer dude was creepy.
