Episode Discussion

This episode revealed a lot. Bea's brother body, along with others was found by Inspector Gamache in the basement of Saint Anthony's. Arisawe Two-River's granddaughter falsely called child protective services on Sergeant Lacoste. Also, Arisawe Two-Rivers aka Mary Two-Rivers was at Saint Anthony's when three boys went missing, 40+ years ago. However, the break out star for me was officer Yvette Nichol. Sarah Booth's character made me laugh every episode. When the killer was being apprehended and held in his car because a big bear was blocking the road. Leave to officer Nichol to say something funny to Inspector Gamache, "Chief I've got the bear covered." I was LMAO.
