Jaedenn Martell is a phenomenal actor.
That is my main takeaway from Defending Jacob Season 1 Episode 4, which found Joanna putting Jacob on the spot to ask the questions we needed answers to following the three-episode premiere.
One minute I think Jacob is being stitched up for a crime he didn't commit, and the next, Martell adds another layer to the character, and it makes me question whether Jacob is rehearsing his answers.
There were several moments during "Damage Control," in which his answers slipped off the tongue. In others, he had to think about them, and that raises some suspicion in my book.
More concerning was that he didn't seem too cut up about finding the dead body. What I would like to know is how Jacob managed to identify the kid from a distance.
He's throwing around the "I thought I'd get in trouble" schtick, and I'm not buying it.
