Thanks for the info, boxman. Interesting stuff. I still feel the same as I did upon first viewing. I realize this must be a true story but I can't believe that many boys went around with constant beaten up faces (especially young white males) and no one questioned them or did anything about it. But I guess it's just like everything else. What's right in front of us we ignore if we don't wanna get involved - or cover up.
ETA: Loved Vera's expressions at the end with his g/f. ;D

I just watched this one last night on my DVR and...it was really, really hard to watch the very end when we find out how it all happened. I had to turn away when Tanner's Dad started....yea.
Jarring.

I gave this one a Good. Yep, that scene was terrible! Tanner's dad was so creepy. I loved when Tanner confronted his father. It was intense... |

I have to say I wasn't very impressed by this episode.
Firstly, I've seen the whole Fight Club theme played out a lot on crime shows, and I found it boring the first time. I couldn't understand why James decided to start fighting. I don't think the show adequatly showed his transformation. It just seemed as if he was all "My dad's overbearing, so I'll punch some kids up"
You would think a private prep school would care when kids came covered in bruises. Surely they have some responsibilities to investigate and make sure kids aren't being abused or bullied?
I really don't like the really recent cases, unless the show can make a very good reason for them. One year is really not enough to be a proper cold case. It's not that dramatic when they show the flashback and everyone looks pretty much the same. I know they had a lot of budget concerns, but surely a ten year old case wouldn't have cost that much more? (Especially since all the characters are in uniforms or suits, so you don't even have to worry about fashions!). I think five years should have been their absolute minimum. There's been the occasional excellent recent case, but most of them fall flat. I also can't help thinking what kind of crummy homicide detectives are in the active homicide teams, because they don't seem to do any investigating at all!

I think this episode was very decent but it wasn't high level. I loved the atmosphere from college, it is something I like very much. I didn't really enjoyed the story line when it came to the bare-knuckle scene but I guess that is just a personal feeling.
