Day Break TV - Day Break, a new ABC television drama on Wednesday nights

What If He Lets Her Go, Part One

November 27th 2006 22:18
The second episode (technically the third) starts off with a nice summary of the previous episodes for an intro. The intro reviewed clues, as well as reiterating that Hopper keeps the injuries and memories from the day before.

Iteration 05

Hopper wakes up and rushes into the bathroom, for once without tripping on his gun belt. Just a little blood has seeped from his shoulder wound. He wraps it up while Rita watches the morning news.

He comes out of the bathroom and asks Rita to take the day off work with him. When she refuses, he breaks the palm plate (sneakily) and promises to make it up to her. She relents and agrees to take the day off with him. She wants to go to Mexico, Rosarita Beach, where there's a great lobster shack and cheap beer.


Hopper does a quick turn to stop at the coffee shop and save the woman's life. He tells her he's a police officer and he's talking potential witnesses. She insists she didn't see anything, so he knows he has an in. He presses her and gets quite a bit of information about her: address, cell phone, the fact that Judge Nitzberg is her supervisor.

While he's talking to the woman, Rita receives a suspicious phone call. She tells the caller she can't talk, she can't do it, please stop calling her.

When the bus hits the woman's car, Rita rushes out to help the injured victims. Hopper tells her he'll pick her up at the hospital after the gets the package.

He opens his mailbox and finds the package. The bad guys are watching him with their camera. He opens the package and finds an hourglass and nothing more. He notices the bad guys and recognizes them from before. He yells at them, asking if the hourglass is what they want. At first, the bad guys don't think he could have made them, then they drive quickly away. Hopper throws the hourglass at the fleeing vehicle.


Chad shows up at the hospital and tells Rita about the murder of Garza. He tells her they want to talk to her at the police station, but she doesn't have to go. At that moment, Hopper puts a gun in Chad's back and tells Rita she needs to come with him. After several seconds of discussion, Hopper leaves and Rita stays, but she doesn't go with Chad, either.

Hopper tracks down Andrea at a bar. He tells her he already knows about the offer from IA. He tells her about the hourglass and asks her to trace incoming calls to his phone. She finds out that the phone call came from Baxter's phone. Baxter is the U. S. Attorney who asked Hopper to help him with the Latin Disciples.

Andrea and Hopper go to Baxter's house and find a woman in the pool, shot in the back. Andrea starts to think that too much is going on and she tells Hopper to run, she can't keep going. We see more hostility between Andrea and Hopper. She is angry that he kept so many secrets from her.

Spivak and Troy taunt Chad about his inability to bring Rita in, and the fact that she's seeing his ex-partner. There seems to be a bit of competition over who will get Andrea's cooperation.

Chad returns to the hospital and offers to take Rita home and make sure she's okay. He offers to check her place, but she turns him down. When she leaves the car, he gets a call from Buck, the chief bad guy, asking him to meet him at a bar.

Hopper is inside, also to check on her. They argue over the day, over Chad, and she asks him to leave.

Outside, Damien's two goons pick him up and drive him to an abandoned parking structure. They beat Hopper for a little while, then Damien threatens Hopper. He tells him about the last guy he knew who snitched on someone. Apparently, he got more territory, more production, and he's quite the guy. Damien's motive for selling out wasn't to turn good. He mentions deals going down that he is not a part of because of the safe house fiasco. Hopper wants to know more, but Damien says he hasn't earned that.

Bumps and knocks come from the trunk of a car. It's Baxter. Damien says one of them will die. Hopper promises to find out who sold him out if he keeps them alive. Damien shoots Baxter and tells Hopper to get busy.

Iteration 05 ends, but the episode continues.

Day Break is surprisingly good. ABC has the most recent episode on their site, I think. I don't know if it's restricted to US viewers. I'll check.

Sounds pretty full-on. Does it matter of you've missed the first few episodes?

I think you could jump right in. There's a brief summary of previous days at the beginning of the show. During the show, when Hopper realizes a connection, there is a nanosecond flashback to remind the viewer.

That's helpful for those of us who need the refresher!
