![]() Koenig tracks down a guest of a long-ago party who allegedly started this rumor, drives several hours expecting the worst, and gets a blank stare in return. ![]() ![]() ![]() One rumor she mentions is unnamed besides hinting at something about Adnan that, if it were true, would implode the entire case and Koenig’s efforts. This week, Koenig focused on following up on rumors that hinted at a potential duplicitousness in Adnan's character. My immediate reaction to this week's episode? A yawn, I kid you not. For an episode previewed last week with the provocative drop of the word “psychopath” and titled "Rumors," I had high expectations for something that was as riveting as last week's deft handling of white-reporter-privilege allegations and vivid profile of Cristina Gutierrez. But probably it was also because of how boring this installment turned out to be. Perhaps the yawn was because of early-morning working hours. I still have hopes that the last episode will be better than this week's effort–my least favorite, by far.Īre there redeeming qualities that I am missing?īasu: My immediate reaction to this week's episode? A yawn, I kid you not. It now seems overwhelmingly likely that Serial will end in ambiguity, though Adnan's story may well outlive it depending on whether or not the Innocence Project finds any useful evidence. As a Redditor put it, "Charming guy charms reporter, later writes letter explaining he was trying to not be charming lest he be accused of trying to charm reporter." If he's being candid, there is a certain irony to his attempted approach. This is ostensibly a defense mechanism against people believing him to be untrustworthy. He writes Koenig a letter explaining that from the outset he’s endeavored to try to prove his case to her based on the facts. So why this particular aside?Īdnan's appearance at the end of the episode is the only part I found interesting. None of the analysis that's offered goes very far toward providing solid answers. Later in the episode, there's speculation with an expert witness who has interviewed a lot of killers about whether Adnan could be a psychopath, or could have convinced himself that he never committed a murder even after doing it, or could have done it without even realizing his crime. ![]() Frigid Offices Might Be Killing Women’s Productivity Olga Khazan ![]()
