The Irrational - Anatomy of a Fall

“Anatomy of the Fall” allows for the conclusion of Phoebe’s (Molly Kunz) separate story and her return to the department. Before that, however, we’ll get a case of suicides on campus which Alec (Jesse L. Martin) is asked to look into. What he finds, with the help of Marisa (Maahra Hill), is the latest suicide was anything but as a young woman’s death was covered up by her sorority sisters attempting to avoid bad publicity. The episode is notable for the experiment playing on how peer pressure can force someone to go against what they know to be true, the case hitting home for Simon (Max Lloyd-Jones) given his brother’s death, and Alec’s interactions with the girl’s father (Blake Robbins) allowing them both a way to honor the young woman’s memory.

Set in a heightened reality, the opening episode of Interior Chinatown introduces us to waiter Willis Wu (Jimmy O. Yang) in a world that feels more like a police procedural than real life with Willis cast as nothing more than a background actor. Witnessing an abduction brings Willis to the attention of Detective Lana Lee (Chloe Bennet) who reveals to Willis his older, and far more talented, brother who disappeared years ago was helping her department get to the truth of what is going in Chinatown. Lana offers Willis the same opportunity.
