I discovered that the show is based on a true story and apparently the book that the guy wrote.

Don't ask why that made things more interesting but it did.

I really liked this episode and I do think the addition of the sister being part of the case was a good one.

Am I evil to not get upset about the murder of a fitness guru?  

No, but that's likely in part because of how they spun it.
How much of the episode did you watch?

Enough to shrug at the end.  The show just doesn't seem to have a lot of oomph, to me.

Since, in the end, it turned out the fitness guru hired a body double for his bodyguard so the fitness guru could selfishly get away with murdering the bodyguard in his own place, no, you are not evil — especially if we give the writers credit for making the fitness guru seem heartless from the beginning. 
⚖️🤷🏻‍♀️

But that was just a rhetorical question, wasn’t it.😉

Would we get upset if any of these characters were offed?

More sister and less assistants made this episode enjoyable for me.

I did think, however, that the ex-wife was going to break up with her BF - dude was smothering!  

I wondered if the ex-wife's BF was going to be in cahoots with the Big Bad.

I liked the ep, but it got a little preachy or something at the end... Sending the assistants home because all work and no play or whatever and then him writing the world's most boring book or whatever he was doing.

Otherwise the story was mostly good. 

The ex and her boyfriend seemed awkward. Oh, and the I don't date cops, but it's okay because you really didn't want to be a cop...

Looking back, I liked the case, but not-so-much the interpersonal stuff.

Agreed.  He could send the assistants away permanently and it would be even more enjoyable.

I hardly ever say things like this, but... there is zero chemistry between ex-wife and her coworker/boyfriend. He expresses zero emotion. I would never have guessed they were at "you get a closet" stage!
