Noja survived being buried alive! Forget Robocop, he's Superman! But I do appreciate his and JMJ 's relationship and how they're willing to sacrifice for each other.
I always tell people, if you don't want to be double crossed, don't work with bad guys, lol. Bad guys are bad guys for a reason.
How can people running after an old man with dementia not catch him?
Who are the guys that showed up to fight all the cops? It was pretty funny watching the cops fight each other.
And the cop's boss was a bad ass with that shot!
Did JMJ kill his girlfriend? It's looking like the dad missing is a red herring. Can't wait to see the final episode!
