[Spoilers ahead ... ]
We already knew that Martin Copeland was apparently some kind of bad guy, likely (I thought) behind the kidnapping (see my review of episode 1.5), so it wasn't too big a shock to see him waiting in that car for Sean. But that scene did show us Sean working together with or for Martin, so where did that leave us? Was Martin behind the shooters who killed Monique and drove all our suspects including Sean into hiding? If they were working for Martin, did they have orders not to shoot Sean? If not, if the shooters weren't working for Martin, then whom were they working for?
It was fun to see our suspects dressed and hair cut to look very different, to elude police. They all looked great. And Sean's relationship to Tara continues to be an intriguing mystery. I certainly got the impression that he was tempted to get into bed and wake up Tara even if that made him late for his meeting with Martin, but he couldn't do that with someone else sleeping right next to her.
And what was going on with that boot that he picked up and seemed to hold so ... lovingly. I assume that boot was Tara's and Sean is not a foot fetishist. So ...
Suspicion, by the end of its sixth episode, is managing to move the story forward, telling us new things every hour, without revealing all that much more than we knew about Leo's kidnapping at the end of the first episode. That's a pretty neat trick, and a recipe for a very compelling mystery, which increasingly is what we have here.
See you back here next week.
