I’m getting closer and closer to the final Sweet Tooth (Netflix). Gus was rescued last episode, by a much older hybrid, and we learn that hybrids have been around longer than most people know. The cave is the secret to saving the human race, which Gus wants to do, and now that he has his mom with him, he might get to do. There’s a knock at the door at the end of the episode, and even though just two seconds later Big Man was with everyone else talking about going out to find Gus, I’ve noticed that despite how far people need to travel, they have no trouble in finding the exact location with rarely a map, and no GPS. And they get there pretty quickly. I’m certain Big Man magically found this church in the middle of a blizzard, because the plot requires him to do so.

Last week, when i mentioned episode 4 of Presumed innocent (Apple Plus), I started to hint at who I thought the killer actually was, if they really aren’t going to surprise us with the movie’s original twist. Peter Sarsgaard entered this episode with so much screentime, and all of it made him look like a sociopath. He has an interaction in the past with the victim that reveals she asked not to be put on cases with him, which he was upset about, and the girl in the internal office who is being called to testify clearly hates him, but he threatens her job to make her testify (which we still haven’t seen). He makes a wild statement to the press, and then pops off on his boss. I think the reason he’s such a recognizable cast member is because he’s the killer, but we just aren’t in that mindset because the other kid was watching the house, so when would he have gotten in? What if he was already in the house before Rusty got there, and Rusty didn’t know? He was only there a short period of time, like an hour. So, it is very possible that after Rusty left, he revealed himself, and killed her. His whole case against Rusty includes this obstruction charge like he was hiding evidence, but we’ve seen no evidence to that. Sarsgaard’s chracter would have known how the killer left her there, he would have been in the house already with the rope that Gyllenhaal didn’t bring with him to tie her up, and would explain why Rusty has no DNA in his car and while he seems like an unreliable narrator, he’s very adamant about finding her real killer. So the twist would be, that the guy who gained the most from Rusty’s downfall, by getting a promotion, and is accusing Rusty of obstruction, is in fact obstructing the case in which he’s guilty, but how do we get that evidence out there? I’m really pretty sure this is him. I correctly guessed the Summer Scool killers for Season 2 of Pretty little Liars about halfway through, so this is about the same point where I think I’m right. He had motive, he had opportunity, and no one has mentioned or even checked for an alibi for him.

I finished Velma (MAX), which has also a totally bonkers ending. The series was already off the rails, but it just goes totally down the hole into wonderland. Just a really bizarre ending to a weird season. I don’t even know what a Season 3 would look like.
