The hopelessness surrounding Cleo’s life is a stark contrast to Maddie’s hopeful new beginning.

Reggie is a sh!tty guy. Instead of taking responsibility for putting Cleo in a tough spot, he makes it all about winning Shell Gordon’s trust. Their boss doesn’t even know that Reggie used Cleo for the money drop and her involvement as an unwilling accomplice in the hit gone wrong. This show wants us to believe that Reggie is the culprit in Cleo’s disappearance but things aren’t always this easy.

Cleo trying to make a deal with Reggie to help her winning the betting money is a risky idea. She shouldn’t have trusted Reggie for anything. And she should’ve stopped wearing that recognizable baby blue coat.

So, Milton is not Seth’s father. And Seth has suspected it since he read her diaries before his Bar Mitzvah. That’s why he is so resentful of her. Could Allan Durst be his father?

Maddie shows her sense of entitlement (or desperation) by demanding recognition from The Baltimore Star reporter for her “intel” on the creepy fish guy. After getting rejected by Bob Bauer, Maddie decides she'll get her own story by writing a letter to Stephan Zawadzkie in a psychiatric hospital. What are you trying to do here, Maddie Morgenstern? This is going to get messy. When Stephen writes back, she uses that reply to slither her way into Tessie Durst’s case as a paid contributor for the newspaper.

It seems that Mrs. Schwartz is good at role-playing and the art of seduction…
