With the identical twin on the loose, Luther tries to make a deal with the devil to get one step ahead, but the dice don’t land in his favor. As he tries to track down the next move of his suspect, he also must help Jenny dispose of Toby’s body and dodge Toby’s bludgeon man. When they realize this is really just a game for the brothers, it’s too late, and the loose one walks through London proper with a bomb strapped to his chest, and Luther will have to put himself in the line of fire if he hopes to save them.
My Thoughts:
The shaky cam chaos in the beginning is pretty fun. It almost feels like found footage, but at the same time, it’s clean enough not to fool anyone. And can I just say, Good on that guy for going after him. I know it didn’t do him any good in the end, but that’s the sort of person you should be… and if there had been more like him, he probably would have survived.
You know… I’ve never thought of driving ranges in London. I guess I just associate them with America too much. Not sure why. But that did distract me.
Luther 101: Disposing of a body – I called the trunk switcheroo rather early on. But I do like the plan there. I kind of feel like he’s taken some pointers from Alice in his handling of the situation.
I’m a little sad that Mark North is fazed out of this episode set. She could easily have gone to chill with him instead of her horrid mother. Also, Jenny’s apparently a big fan of gaudy eye makeup and atrocious sweaters…. But her hair is cute.
I’m really happy with how this season ended. I’m dying for season 3, but not staring into a black abyss waiting for the resolution of the last season. And I always appreciate that.
