This one is the absolute worst episode of the series, and it is the worst by a mile, not just by a little bit. What tries to be a smug and sophisticated telling of a cat and mouse game just comes off as a totally unbelievable, and unrealistic, attempt at satire or spoof that falls completely flat. I don't blame the actors as they were doing what was expected and required, and as all fine character actors tend to do the material better than it is, this one is on the writer and director who muck it all up. The only good reason to have this weak episode of what is otherwise an excellent series, is if you must have a complete collection which must not be missing any shows at all.
