Elsbeth Recap: Boundaries and Baseball Bats


Elsbeth finally faces an adversary and a case she can’t solve by the end of the episode.

Everybody’s talking about boundaries, from Elsbeth and Teddy to sketchy Judge Crawford and Lonnie, the creepy podcast guy; from murder victim of the week Andy and his non-murderer Delia to Lt. Connor and his precinct-wide audit. And, of course, nothing gives Elsbeth a sense of purpose like noticing when a justice-related mechanism isn’t functioning properly, so she’s drawn into this week’s mystery while serving as an alternate juror on a seemingly open-and-shut murder trial. It seems straightforward because of how much circumstantial and physical evidence links the accused and the murder — a man has been bludgeoned to death in his apartment, apparently by his lover, who was found by the police standing over his body, naked and covered in his blood — but once Elsbeth’s mind starts tugging on loose threads, she can’t stop.
