A Tragedy

Warning: Spoilers
Three Hispanic men are found shot and the detectives initially suspect a police officer of committing the crime. However, they are then led to his neighbor who is currently going through a divorce and they soon start suspecting the first victim was really the intended target.

This was a pretty great episode! The plot intrigues and I really did like that BIG red herring in the beginning. What then unfolds was pretty surprising to me and you can't help but just feel bad for and also dislike both of them. Karen Sillas gives off a chilling performance in the ending scene and the same goes for Larry Pine who is also pretty believable in his role. My only gripe is that the plot does get a touch complicated in the second half which makes it quite harder to understand but as long as you're paying attention, then you should be able to know how the plot is going.

Overall, "Consumed" is a pretty great episode, especially for a season finale. This is because of the supporting characters (also the main cast) and the plot's twists and turns. Only complaint is how it gets a little complicated near the end.
