last week’s episode<\/a>. I didn’t think it was a great episode, and felt like it should have been moved closer to the beginning of the season. This late in the season, I wanted real movement on the case. Fortunately, this week’s episode ‘Beau Soleil’ comes back in a big way.<\/p>\nLinden and Holder are getting closer to finding out who really killed Rosie. We learn that she’s been to that Indian casino numerous times making huge deposits into a bank account that she opened up with her aunt’s ID. My assumption was correct that Rosie looked a little too dolled up in those photos, like she was doing a little more than just hanging out with friends late at night. No, it seems \u2013 at least right now \u2013 that Rosie had become entangled in a high-end escort service.<\/p>\n
This escort service has ties to just about everyone on the show. Richmond has been using them for ages, and now there are incriminating photos of him out there with these other women. Richmond’s biggest supporter uses the service routinely, and even tries to get Jamie Wright to partake.<\/p>\n
Politicians who act unbecoming is nothing new. I had to laugh when it was reported that Mayor Adams dug up an old Indian burial ground on the site of his new waterfront project. That’s some bad mojo for sure.<\/p>\n
Linden has become a bit more brazen in her actions. She wants to get this case solved so that she can move on with her life. When she started emailing the anonymous email account of Orpheus (the man they think is responsible for Rosie’s murder), I thought, “Now that’s pretty ballsy.”<\/em><\/p>\nThen there’s the big reveal \u2013 something that turns the entire season on its head. Richmond isn’t the saint we all assumed. He’s been talking about ethics and the “right thing” this whole time, and now we find out that he’s far more implicated in Rosie’s death than we ever thought possible. Or is he? It’s just like this show to throw another wrench into the works. I wouldn’t be surprised if somehow someone has hacked into Richmond’s email and that’s how he’s getting sent those messages. Whatever happens, ‘The Killing’ has again reinforced something we already knew to be an inalienable truth: Never trust politicians. Ever.<\/p>\n
Other Random Thougths:<\/h5>\n\n- If Richmond was the real culprit, why would he talk about drowning? His wife didn’t die by being drowned, did she? She was killed by a drunk driver.<\/li>\n
- What did Tom Drexler mean when he talked about Richmond having to clean up after him? Did he already have something in mind that needed cleaning up? Or was it just an offhand comment.<\/li>\n
- Speaking of Drexler, he uses the same escort service and seems just slimy enough to leave a girl in a trunk to drown.<\/li>\n
- How cool would it be to have a house that has a ceiling that doubles as a pool?<\/li>\n
- ‘The Killing’ has been renewed by AMC for a second season, which begs the question of whether we’ll find out who killed Rosie this season, or whether the investigation will drag on into Season 2.<\/li>\n
- Lastly, does anyone really have their computer set to give them an annoying ding every time they receive an email? That was pretty unbelievable. I’ve never met a person that actually does something like that.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
In the wake of Anthony Weiner’s wiener photo scandal, this week’s episode of ‘The Killing’ takes on a whole new context. I for one thought that the show would shy away from Richmond being personally involved with the crime, and that this angle would instead become more of a red herring.
