Episode #15: Down Will Come

July 14, 2015

For the second time, True Detective has ended the fourth episode of its season with an incredible action sequence. If it happens a third time, it might be a trend. Andrew and Charlie break it all down. What makes Frank the weakest character on the show? What's up with Ray acting all nice and stuff? Is Ani's suspension really a sign of institutional sexism? And how does that intense shootout communicate character visually? Plus, they induct a few honorary members onto the Detect This team and discusses listener feedback.
