Goofs:

Revealing mistakes: In the opening scene, the gunman stands perpendicular to the car on the driver's side and fires, blowing out both the driver side and passenger side windows. Yet somehow two holes appear in the center of the front windshield, an impossible angle.

Movie Connections:

Follows Jesse Stone: Sea Change (2007) (TV)

I liked it. The wife didn't.

While I do agree with this being the least of the series, I enjoyed the episode. However, my wife (who would leave me for Tom if he asked, I'm not kidding) didn't like it.

As an example of our tastes, I loved Clint Eastwoods "Unforgiven" because the distinction between bad and good wasn't clear. My wife did not like "Unforgiven" because the distinction between bad and good wasn't clear.

I think the story line was needed or the series would have fallen way to far into a formula driven format. That's why I think it would destroy the series if it was a week to week show. This episode must set up at least one or two more stories.

I look forward to them.
