Reacher 1 - ATM

The unbending justice of former military investigator Jack Reacher (Alan Ritchson) continues with the show’s return for a Second Season. The episode gets its name from the short introductory interlude which reminds returning viewers just who Reacher is and also works as an introduction to new viewers when our good Samaritan helps out with a situation involving a carjacking and an ATM machine. Reacher’s time in the military was referenced multiple times in the show’s First Season, but the mystery he’ll find himself in the middle this time around will allow for flashbacks to those days in with the 110th Special Investigators Unit filling in more of the character’s backstory.

A Murder at the End of the World - Survivors

For a collection of supposed geniuses, these people sure are stupid. Despite having pretty solid evidence to support her claim that Bill (Harris Dickinson) was murdered, Darby (Emma Corrin) finds herself alone in the camp while others are all too willing to accept an unlikely suicide. About to be sent home by Andy (Clive Owen), Darby pushes forward finding an unexpected connection Bill had with another of the guests who will meet a similar end by the end of the episode, just before he can share a crucial piece of information, forcing, hopefully, our “geniuses” to take Darby’s claims a bit more seriously.

In Love and Deep Water

Set on a cruise ship, In Love and Deep Water merges a romcom about a pair of jilted lovers who come together after realizing their significant others are cheating with a murder mystery aboard the ship. The romcom angle works fairly well with the life of the buttoned-down butler (Ryô Yoshizawa) thrown into chaos after the arrival of Chizuru (Aoi Miyazaki) who showed up to catch her boyfriend and Suguru’s girlfriend together only to realize to late that the pair aren’t on the ship and finding herself stuck on the cruise for several days. The pair bond over both their misfortune and investigating the murder which occurs on the ship (which is where the film runs into problems).
