I'll leave it to others to point out the fun. Here are the problems with the plausibility of the writing:
- publication of certain videos means Ellie's computer has been hacked. Not a word mentioned about where it came from, yet the last few episodes turns on this event.
- Ellie's character is portrayed as weak and weepy. Hardly the picture of a female cop. Male chauvinistic steretypes in action.
- If Gideon, the Austrian detective, was really believed to be passing information to criminals, he would have been suspended.
