Well, The Whistleblower certainly sets a high bar for the rest of the season, doesnt it?

Shes dedicated to her version of events and it finally makes Drew see her for who she is.

Theyre all psychopaths and hes the only one who seems to feel any real remorse or guilt.

His anxiety manifests in a stomachache, but she even dismisses that as fake.

Its now obvious Drew doesnt love Dory at all anymore.

If Dory can connect with someone like April and think shes pretty cool, who even is she anymore?

Drew doesnt trust her, and he certainly doesnt want someone whos incapable of seeing the truth.

She was incredibly eager to go with Bob Lunchs plan that they act like a couple.

Its interesting how each member of the gang gets the defense attorney they deserve.

Dory is shallow and fame-obsessed and so is her rookie lawyer, Cassidy.

Drew is a polite dope who gets Louie Anderson as the brilliant Bob Lunch.

Bob can barely handle the trek and apparently went to the wrong apartment.

Bob is a simple Midwest lawyer who believes in every city having exactly one Drew and one Dory.

And who else but Chelsea Peretti could play Patsy, Elliotts fabulous, fun lawyer?

And then theres Portia.

Her needy and desperate search for acceptance and community is used against her here.

She doesnt even get a defense.

They didnt even have to trick her, she was always the weakest link.

I cant blame Portia for cracking.

As Polly said, theres a mountain of evidence against them.

Their fingerprints are on the body and the suitcase.

Not only was Fat Franky an informant, he was also wearing a wire when he was shot.

With that theory firmly put to rest, Polly can easily narrow in on Drew and Dory.

And as the episode ends, we meet someone whos even more disconnected from reality than Dory.

Case Notes

We still dont know about April, but Drew is obviously suspicious.

Dory is a horrible liar, but her April is cool was almost convincing.

I love that Elliott still wanted to stop for ceviche.

I also love that he forgot his van.

Michaela Watkins is so funny in the scene with Officer Joy.

I like how pleased she is with her hearing aid industry joke.

Chelsea Peretti and Louie Anderson are episode MVPs.

I cant decide on the best lines between the two of them.

Chantal is also in this episode.

Im curious to see how her storyline plays out being so isolated from the main story.

Its fitting that Chantal thrives in an environment as empty as a paid Fempowerment brunch pyramid scheme.

She has no real morals or drive and would easily be impressed by a woman who sells personality-inspired popsicles.

Even though her luxurious heartbreak shelter sounds stupid, it really could work with such easy marks around.
