Sugar Recap: Everything Loose Lands in Los Angeles


The show keeps flirting with the case of a missing woman, L.A. power brokers, and Sugar’s big secret, but it struggles to connect all the dots.

She offers up another dismissive remark about Olivia’s whereabouts, excessively typical of anyone in the family vying for Jonathan’s attention and influence (“The most likely thing that happened to her is that she met a coke dealer with some really nice abs”). “You were supposed to take care of her.” Seeing, for the first time, a bit of himself in David, but no less fixed on finding Olivia and bringing all of these fathers and brothers and predators to justice, he gets Stallings’s address out of this Hollywood man-child who figured out way too late how not to be a monster of his environment. Faces of ugly, violent men from noirs past flash across the screen (peaking with Orson Welles’s grotesque Captain Quinlan in Touch of Evil) as Sugar beats Carlo within an inch of his life.
