Inspector Falke - Anything You Say
This episode opens with Falke and Grosz searching a building; they separate, shouting is heard and two shots are fired. Grosz sees Falke standing over the body of a woman with another man. Falke and the man run off; almost immediately afterwards local police turn up. Shortly afterwards both Falke and Grosz are brought in and questioned by the local police who seem to believe Falke may have fired the fatal shot. As the interviews progress we see, via a series of extended flashbacks, what happened in the days leading up to the shooting. Sometimes we see the same events twice, but happening in different ways as their statements differ.
This was an impressive episode, I certainly enjoyed it more than the previous too 'Inspector Falke' episodes. The way the story plays out is gripping; the two different points of view for many events means we are never sure which, if either, of Grosz and Falke are describing the facts as they really happened or whether differences are down to differing perspectives or deliberate lies. There are plenty of twists and turns, including a finale which is far from obvious but not too extreme. Overall a fine episodes with hints of 'Rashomon' (seeing events differ from different characters' perspectives) and the possibility of unreliable narration as our protagonists give their versions of events.
These comments are based on watching the episode in German with English subtitles.
