Geordie took Cathy on a romantic walk with chips and told her that he’d rather be home for her and the kids than following Elliott’s whim. ![]() Geordie also learned Elliott’s next step: He was going to loan him out to other towns until Geordie’s miserable enough to retire. It’s hard to say who had more tears in their eyes when Will said he was trying to stop and Geordie barked, “Well, you try harder! I mean it.” Actor Robson Green conveyed so much in those seven words: Geordie’s sadness, anger, and fear over what Will was doing to himself and his growing family, but also how scared Geordie was at the thought of having to watch it continue. Will admitted he can’t shake the guilt and claimed the pills bring him focus, but they both knew what kind of damage drugs do to people and their relationships. “Is this who you are now? Popping pills and preaching sermons?” he asked. He had to physically take the bottle from Will’s jacket. But that night, the doctor had asked Mike to join him.Īs for other huge developments in the first hour, Geordie confronted Will about his drug use. When the doctor threatened to tell his friends at the Soviet embassy about her, she went to the club, asked to see the bottle Mike was about to serve, and thought she’d just be poisoning the doc. Ding! Ding! Ding! The wife had been a chemistry professor. Everyone assumed Mike had placed the cyanide in the bottle, but Will questioned how he’d have known the proper dose. Larry and Miss Scott figured out that the doctor had discovered who Mike’s wife really was: a Hungarian university professor who’d led protests of Soviet policies with her husband and was blamed for the deaths of some of her students. He’d treated Bernie for an STD and threatened to tell his wife about the affair if he didn’t let him drink for free at the club. The niece later confirmed that her uncle would blackmail patients with information that he’d learned about them, for money or whatever he could get. ![]() Larry was smart enough to realize that Geordie should run point from here. Miss Scott’s bedside manner is stronger than this already: She pieced together that the couple had come to England after Hungary’s 1956 uprising, noted that the couple had changed their names, and recognized Mike’s accent as Russian. ![]() The fact that he believes a woman would make a good detective is promising. Larry knows he has a lot to learn, but he’s trying. The field trip gave them time to discuss why Larry is loyal to Elliott - because Elliott treats him as though he has a right to investigate cases, whereas Geordie and even Miss Scott think he’s clueless. He showed her a small book of codes that he’d found, and took her with him to the hospital to speak with a recovering Mike. Meanwhile, Larry struggled to have an original thought of his own, but he did one thing right: He brought Miss Scott in on the case as his partner.
