Episode 3 – Central Division Review

Posted by Samuel Walters

After the shocking conclusion to the second episode, Detectives Edwards and Hodge deal with the fallout of betrayal. The revelation of the episode — that not everything is as it appears to be — is yet another solid development, playing off the expectations of the audience.

In this episode:

Hodge confronts Edwards about Edwards’ involvement with Internal Affairs
Hodge confirms the information Edwards provided in the previous episode
Hodge plans to head to the airport
Hodge confonts Edwards about being sold out
Hodge reveals that Edwards’ wife, Sarah, is not dead … but is coming with him

The editing of this episode is an interesting storytelling device. We jump from the end of one set of dialogue directly into another, without a natural transition. The effect is to emphasize the immediacy of the circumstances. Again, the acting is solid and the storytelling leaves the audience clamoring for more. Put simply, this is a series worth following — if only to see what will happen next. But that’s not all. There’s a legitimate mystery afoot. And its revelation, as well as what it means for the characters, is another reason to tune in for the next installment.
