Tool Man No. 1: Writer Richard, who appeared and left the scene very literary and middle-aged. He can tell love words and can't catch Ruo Ruo Li himself. Mare is a person who is trapped in life and can't be caught by others. If the object of the date is also a person who can't be caught, Mare is too lazy to catch it. So the screenwriter arranged for him to retire. The role that the screenwriter arranged for him to appear is to remind Mare and the audience that the heroine is a beautiful woman. So it's a one-step Mare-centric soap opera.
Tool No. 2: John Ross, best friend's husband. In a family that was beautiful before the case was solved, family members helped each other. There was a patient with Down syndrome in the family, but the youngest daughter was also growing up firmly. The father in the original family looks good, the brothers are the most complete and harmonious, and the brothers have a good relationship. As a result, the screenwriter arranged for him to cheat. His wife Lori also loves and hates him more than hates him. After thinking about it, it is completely unrealistic. In the end, I scapegoated my son, but I didn't see how good my relationship with my son was. It is possible to have reproductive cancer, as long as it is a son, no matter who gave birth, he will love it. Otherwise, why would he have the face to ask his wife to adopt the illegitimate child he and his niece had. The relationship between the brothers is obviously very good. The younger brother helps him clean up the crime scene. It is not enough to plan to join forces with his wife to slander the younger brother. He has to personally settle the family by the river where he was fishing when he was a child. I really don't understand the scriptwriter's routine.
Tool Man No. 3: Dylan, Erin's ex-boyfriend, a teenager who likes to be a father, the original family is loving. People don't seem to be bad, but the characters before and after are not unified. At first, under the coercion of the hotel's second-generation girlfriend Brianna, he bullied the child's mother Erin together in the woods. Later, on the porch of the house, he dared to be so cruel to Brianna. There was a period of time to relax during the night of the incident, and at the end of the play, it was not explained how much this foreshadowing had to do with the progress of the plot. In the end, the confession was lied so that the parents could adopt Erin's son. Another tool man without his own inner activity!
Tool Man No. 4: Black addict (Beth's younger brother Freddie), the No. 1 suspect arranged by the screenwriter, there have been clips of him in the previous episodes. Long-time opium-addict, repeatedly robbing my sister's house and my neighbor's house in order to buy drugs. Called Dawn and lied to her that her daughter Katie was in his hands, to get a ransom to buy drugs. It seems that people are not bad, only stealing does not harm people. When pointing the finger at Deacon, he was arranged to die by an overdose of poison by the screenwriter. Before his death, he was also used as a turning tool and suspect, leaving a bag of Erin's clothes in his home. Black people + drug trafficking + drug use has been a key social topic in the United States for more than 20 years. After President Nixon announced war on drugs, the black group was once stigmatized. Not only did it not discuss social topics, it did not explore the cause of Freddie's drug addiction, and it did not explore how the kinship between siblings affected Bethy's own family. Instead, it strengthened the stereotype/stereotype of poor black people. My perspective It seems that the writers did not do a good job.
Toolman No. 5: Bethy, by the way, Freddie's sister Beth. There is a family love oil bottle at home, and he expresses that sometimes he hopes his brother will die. At the party held after his brother's death, he said Beth's story through other characters. Voice: She looks relieved. Such Toxic's affection! A black female character who is unstable and kidnapped by her family.
Tool Man No. 6: Zabel, the episodes and survival are very short, not enough to be a sidekick like doctor watson, not a role like Detective Morse's chief, nor a role like Olivia and DT in "Town Doubt" relation. His appearance is also to prove that Kate Winslet is still the rose. Mare, who killed his teammates, finally successfully got away from it, confirming the fact that Zabel is just a tool no matter how handsome he is.
Tool Man #7: Dawn, the cashier's mother whose daughter has disappeared. accused the police of incompetence. She appeared to give Mare moral pressure from neighbors and old friends, and a tool person who only has facts and no heart. The combination of her and Beth as friends is another political correctness in Hollywood: community bond, community is family.
Tool Man No. 8: Deacon Deacon, a proper tool man character, was used by the screenwriter to hack Catholicism by the way. Ambiguous mobilization of the history of the diocese, obviously helping the victim but not telling the truth, worrying that he will be implicated and being pointed by the community, and even mobilizing the selfishness of the diocese, is really detrimental to the church's face.
Tool Man No. 9: Mare's cousin, Father Hastings. The role of the tool person: 1. Mare is a well-deserved town heroine, and she is friends and relatives with everyone. 2. Even if the small town church is full of believers every Sunday, it cannot reverse the reality that this town continues to rot.
In addition to the above-mentioned characters, of course, there are some who are not even tool people. Their appearance is only to confuse the public and make the unreasonable plot forcibly rationalized. Such roles include: John Ross' brother who lives alone. Chief of police, useless, the emergence of black leadership is just Hollywood political correctness. Katie, the character who was cued from beginning to end, only appeared in a few scenes at the end. Girls with Down syndrome are also roles that appear because of Hollywood's political correctness for inclusion and diversity. The old couple at the beginning, the characters who appeared to arrange the revolvers, etc.
Conclusion: The same type of drama is recommended to watch the British dramas "Happy Valley" and "Small Town Doubt". It is too difficult for a good Hollywood drama. The wall cracks suggest that everyone watch British dramas!
