Review of Trust

Revenge: Trust (2011)
Season 1, Episode 2
Emily new's target: Bill Harmon
1 October 2011
This episode was a lot of fun to watch, but the plot was not as good as the pilot. I thought it was a little unrealistic that Bill would tell everyone in his company to invest on AllCom Cellular, based on a tip from Emily whom he only met the previous day, just because he saw her with Nolan. It would have been better if Emily's plan was a bit more complex and mind-boggling. Also, we never find out how Emily got Bill's ID card or even got into the building when no one was around. Nevertheless, it was still fun watching the demise of Bill. I also found the character of Nolan to be more witty and interesting as compared to the pilot episode.

My main concern with this show in general is that I don't know how they will last past one season, if they only continue this format of Emily taking her revenge on one person per episode. There would have been like, what, 20 to 30 people max that implicated Amanda's father, so I think the writers should start focusing on starting other story lines which doesn't revolve around Emily taking revenge for her father, but say, another character like Victoria, Jack or even Nolan taking their revenge out on someone for some other reason.

Overall, I still love this show, and enjoyed this episode, but I think they need to kick it up a notch and make the plots more complex.
