When an art dealer’s wife is kidnapped and the demand is set for the diamonds the kidnappers don’t know are in the woman’s stomach, Luther and the team work quickly to save her. Unbeknownst to them all DCI Ian Reed has been helping London’s underbelly for a cut of the profit, and when the possibility of being outed becomes too real, he decides he needs to take matters into his own hands, and Luther’s wife may be the one to pay the price.
My Thoughts:
Note to self, never swallow diamonds. (I don’t think I’ll ever need that disclaimer, btw). This is an interesting episode, because the show’s normal held together-ness starts to shatter and the fact that people Luther thought he could trust, can’t be is a scary thought.
I’m really weirded out by the fact that DCI Reed turned out to be a baddy. He seemed so unassuming at first. And I’m flabbergasted by the fact that he actually killed Zoe. It should be really interesting to see how this plays out – especially with the amount of blood on his hands now.
It is quite telling, that Zoe still loved Luther enough to risk her own life to keep him safe. And it’s incredibly sad how that turned out. (Were this any other genre of show, I might hold out hope that she’d survive… but this isn’t that sort of a show.)
(More in the next Episode – since this one leads into it)
