[Spoilers ahead … ]
First, let me say that I am glad we discover out within the first couple of minutes of episode 1.7 of Presumed Harmless on Apple TV+ that Horgan and is alive and nicely. In actual fact, so nicely, that we see him again in courtroom with a pacemaker in his coronary heart as Rusty takes the stand.
Which, in fact, is the very last thing a defendant in a homicide case is meant to do, and Molto has a discipline day with Rusty, successful the hardly ever given reward of Nico. However Molto’s satisfaction is short-lived. He returns residence, finds his condominium has been ransacked, and a hearth poker with the charming be aware connected, “G0 FUCK YOURSELF”.
What does this inform us? Effectively, Molto did not write the be aware in all caps himself. Somebody put it there on the poker. That poker, presumably, is the poker that was used to bludgeon and kill Carolyn. I did not see any blood on it, however that would have cleaned off.
I see two prospects. One, Molto is the killer, he cleaned and hid the poker in his residence, and somebody discovered it — after ransaking the place — and left it and the be aware. Who may that particular person be?
Effectively, the opposite chance is that the assassin within the e-book and the film, indignant about what Molto had put Rusty via in courtroom, left the poker with the be aware in Molto’s residence. I suppose that is the extra probably rationalization, however then why was the house ransacked?
We’ll discover out the reply subsequent week. And I am glad there will be one other season of this excellent drama.
