That scene where his superiors bring Jenkins in on that BS he pulled with the cats drinking on their own stoop was GOLD.

They had him shook when they said it could affect his job. He was legitimately considering changing his ways when it came to how he was policing, especially civilians. But instead of scaring him into becoming a better police officer, they scared him into writing “better” reports to cover his and the department’s ass. The PD is rotten to the core. They have the ability to dramatically improve policing, but would rather focus on dodging accountability. At all levels. Excellent scene. :wow:

And I get The Wire comparisons given setting and cast, but this feels like a completely different show. The pacing is way different on this.


This was such a great scene I really think this show is going to get him an Emmy nomination like Kate winslet doing these unique accents.
So the episode was really great because it showed you how that flex plainclothes unit get perks, his boss gets him to the front of the line in the evidence room, his boss will cover for him if he beats someone up. He clearly needs money for his house etc, so the next evolution for him is to steal like that gun task force unit members are dojng.
