When AMC's 'The Killing' concluded its first season, fans were outraged that the show didn't wrap up the central mystery that was introduced in the pilot episode: who killed Rosie Larsen? The viewers who stuck with the show were rewarded with an answer during tonight's second season finale. So, if you're one of the people who want to know the identity of the killer and don't want to actually watch the episode (you greedy lot you!), read on…but beware of spoilers!
It was the penultimate episode of 'The Killing' and the big question was... well, it was still, "Who killed Rosie Larsen?" But after last week's breakthrough, that answer may be more close than it's ever been. In fact, we may have been right on top of the answer the entire time.
The title of this week's episode of 'The Killing' takes its name from the new Larsen family pet, but it also represents the tenacity with which all of our players are operating. As we approach the conclusion of this season the show seems to be firing on (almost) all cylinders.
The end of last week's episode of 'The Killing' found Linden investigating the mysterious 10th floor of the Wapi Indian casino and getting herself knocked out by an unknown person in one of the series' best episodes yet.
'The Killing' has been slowly elevating itself from a red herring-laden procedural slow burn to an emotional, character-driven drama. While it's mostly stumbled on its way there, "Sayonara, Hiawatha" seems to have found a nice middle ground.
The epic battle between Native Americans and the white man continues in this week's episode of 'The Killing,' as Linden rushes to find Holder before it's too late.
Holder appropriately pokes Linden this week on 'The Killing' by cruelly teasing that if she thinks she can talk to dead people, why doesn't she just ask Rosie who killed her so we can get this over with already. Holder: the voice of the audience.
'The Killing' ended last week with Terry entering a mysterious black car in the middle of the night, and our dearly departed Rosie was afraid of a black car she believed to be following her around. The shadowy male figure inside Terry's black car is revealed to be Terry's married lover Michael Ames, father of Jasper, spoiled brat and former boyfriend of Rosie.
Last week's episode of 'The Killing' introduced a new suspect: Alexi Giffords, the orphaned son of the man Stan Larsen killed to escape the Polish mob. "Ghosts of the Past" is a markedly far better episode than those in recent weeks, providing plot advancement and genuine intrigue.
This week's episode is about the ways in which things haunt our characters. Richmond is coping with his new life of paralysis and Jamie believes he can prove that the mayor set Richmond up to look guilty of killing Rosie. As we saw in a previous episode, Jamie is definitely onto something. Richmond dreams of Belko shooting him again, and it's the first in a line of ghosts that come back to haunt our characters this week.
Mitch and Terry's parents pop in for a visit and suggest that people might be getting the wrong idea about Terry living with Stan while Mitch is away. And they're right. By episode's end, Stan and Terry share a kiss and a loving embrace, which is about as eye-rolling as the episode gets this week.
This week Linden and Holder try to find the owner of the Ogi Jun tattoo, while Richmond copes with his new paralysis, and the Larsen family continues to unravel in Mitch's absence. "Ogi Jun" is a much more basic, procedural episode, but is it a help or a hindrance to the already bumpy show?
