    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      "Veritas" is Latin for "truth"; the word appears on Johanna Beckett's gravestone, and the title could possibly refer to Kate finally exposing the truth about Senator Bracken's role in her mother's death.
    • Goofs
      In the recording of Bracken that Montgomery left for Beckett, the conversation is exclusively between Montgomery and Bracken. But as established in Knockout (2011), Montgomery was only a rookie during the Joe Pulgatti/Bob Armen incident; it seems unlikely that two veterans like Raglan and McCallister would choose a new guy to speak for them, especially to the ADA who's been blackmailing them about the crime for which he not only has the ability to prosecute them at any time he chooses, but is heard saying outright he's more than willing to do so.
    • Quotes

      Senator William H. Bracken: [Beckett interrupts a TV interview] You can't... you can't be here.

      Kate Beckett: I found the tape. I found it. It's over. Senator Bracken, you are under arrest for conspiracy, fraud, and the murder of my mother, Johanna Beckett. Turn around, please.

    ridiculous
    I love the show, but this episode was beyond ridiculous. I can accept that they had to do some ret-conning in order to bring that particular affair to a close. But there was no need for the many many conjectures they made to be so extremely far-fetched. Not even a psychic could have come up with this stuff. A lot of very lazy writing must have gone into this - plus a need to rush things (perhaps certain recurring characters' contracts were up and they did not want to renew them beyond season 6??). All this conjecture was made worse by them cramming a lot of plot development into 40 minutes. There was more than enough plot here to do a two-parter that would have been decently paced and would have given the plot and the twists and "discoveries" the necessary room to breathe. Yet, they choose not to do this as a two-parter. Perhaps they did not have the time because they were getting too close to the end of the season??
