Definitely A Different Kind Of Story With An Odd Ending

Here's a different story that involves two young boys -both straight-A students who, it appears, have been the victim of a serious crime. The older brother had a valuable Rolex watch stolen and was shot by the assailant. The younger brother is the sole witness but seems to be having big psychological problems relating to the police exactly what happened.

It takes time for the younger brother to finally give a true account of what happened and it involves several people, not just the one main suspect. (When you see the apparent criminal caught after just 15 minutes have gone by in the show, you know there are going to be further twists and turns and there will be a lot more than what meets the eye.)

"Don Flack" (Eddie Cahill) shows a very sensitive side to the young boy in trying to help him get through this.

The conclusion is a bit odd, I'll say that.
