Homicide: Frank Pembleton and Tim Bayliss, 03

[20FlightBlues]

This was always my favorite episode outside of Three Men & Adena. Bayliss & Pembleton were the heart of the show and their discussions were brilliant. Best tv show ever made.

Frank's comments from 2:05 about the darkness were sad in hindsight now. Frank was right, and Tim did indeed have a darkness - his unwillingness to accept it and stick to his moral high ground led to his reality crushed by the Luke Ryland murders and his own downfall from his actions after that.

Watching this today, I hope that people don't judge Bayliss too harshly. At this time in my life I'm pretty tolerant of almost everything consenting adults do, but when I watched this episode for the first time in the '90s I felt a lot like Bayliss and thought that one human being getting off on hurting or humiliating another--even if the person wanted to be treated that way--was really disturbing.

@Trustme77 It is especially disturbing when you are investigating such cases as these.

LOL @ Frank's story of seeing a pretty woman on the street (lmao) And Tim "no no I don't think like that."

Man I'm the only fool watching this clip. Frank explodes with wisdom - sadly I've learned this lesson already. Secor's expression is brilliant at the end of this clip - you can see so clearly his taking this in and learning. I wish the clip ran a touch longer...

No you are not, this is just perfect... But really...

One of the best moments of the series & a pivotal moment for Bayliss's character arc. Thanks for posting!
