Episode No 1 Recap And Review 




Run or Die: Dale had these options before his crazy adventures began, which saw him stranded on three different continents. In 1982, Dale was imprisoned in Pentridge Prison, Australia. He is afraid of Barnes, a fellow inmate he had previously dated.  


  A conflicted prisoner decides the time is right to escape and takes his friend with him. But they have just shy of forty minutes to do it. The next calculation should be done at 1. The escape goes smoothly as the duo make their way past the guards and through the air vents in an orderly fashion.  


 They ran into trouble in the last step as the initial hammer and adze wouldn't do the trick. And almost 1. 


He will use the chainsaw to cut through the heavy metal using the noise while the work crew continues their work after lunch. It works, but there's still an ocean of guards to get through. Dale uses a blind spot and ties one end of the cable to the roof. His friend almost passes out due to dizziness, but Dale calms him down. And just like that, the two escape from the prison - through the front door wall.


  Dale goes to his college professor's office. It turns out that he was actually studying to be a paramedic before going to prison. He regrets his failures, but he's out to fix it. Dying in prison would not be the right end. Guns, armed robberies, and a hero: that's what got Dale into this mess. The professor reminds him to stay away from these three things while paying him to take a chance.


  He changes his identity to Lindsay Ford, a Kiwi citizen, and arrives in Bombay, India. Unlike Stewie from Family Guy, the "smell" of hope is the first thing Dale feels when he lands. When she is looking for a place to stay, she meets Prabhu, a well-intentioned guide. The man is charming and seems confident. Dale finds a place to stay in bustling 1980s Bombay, just below the giant movie posters of Amitabh Bacchan's latest film. At night, he remembers being tortured both mentally and physically by the police. Police believe he knows the person who killed Officer Flores.


  Prabhu shows him around the city, takes him to different places in small mohallas and redi walas. Dale admires the colorful city. A mysterious lady in a white dress saves Daly from an overturned car. But he must return to his friends. Something tells me they will meet again. And so on. He goes straight to the cafe where Reynaldo said he would be. Carla and her partner Didier take him under their wing. Reynaldo had all kinds of deals gone. Didier often brokered them for the commission. But they were all confirmed on the sidewalks.




The police looked the other way. Reynaldo never bled and was neutral. Didier points to Rafiq, the book black marketer, and asks Lindsey to stay away. Lisa (prostitute), Vikram (Bollywood stuntman) and Kavita (journalist) were the other members of Karla's group. He charms Lisa's pimps by thwarting them. Lindsey wants to make a fresh start in the city and keeps to herself carefully. Karla and Lindsey went on a field trip together. He is definitely more than meets the eye. They flirt a bit too, but it looks like a heart-breaking love story waiting to happen.

  Dale accidentally finds himself part of a police chase after the cops find him hanging around past curfew. The next morning, she informs Prabhu that she is leaving Bombay. Prabhu offers to take Dey to his village to see the "real India". Carla visits Lindsey and asks for her help.  


  At Maurizio's behest, she agreed to work at The Palace, a brothel. But Madam Sue, who now owns the place, has taken it hostage. Carla needs Lindsay's help to free Lisa.


  Carla wants Lindsay to pose as an American attorney to make this happen. He's reluctant, but thinks worse about "who" Carla is. Prabhu and he prepare to go to his village to collect train tickets, but in the nearby neighborhoods, a man overdoses. Prabhu accompanies her so the police don't think they are involved. Dale agrees to appear as a lawyer. He plays his part well, but Sue warns him that Carla will never love him. She thinks he is what he says he is, but he did it because of Carl.

  He mentions Ahmed and Christina and something like "they're never coming back". Dale insists on committing violent acts against Sue if she does not comply, and eventually she does. Lisa comes out and asks Carl's name. "Rujul," as Lisa calls it, Carla rewards her with a dose of medicine. It's a bittersweet breakup between the two as Dale learns the ugly truth about Carla's ways. Dale is robbed by thugs in an alley on the way. When the police arrive at the scene, they run away. Zhou seems to be behind it. In the noise, he explains that he never imagined that the ripples from that night would change the future of everyone associated with him in the city.





  Episode Review

  As an Indian, it was a joy to watch 1980s Bombay. It is absolutely safe to say that the depiction and recreation of the colorful city is as authentic as possible.

  Giant movie posters, almost claustrophobic mohallas usually evoke the city. Despite being an hour long, episode 1 never ended. This is the type of pattern you see creators giving producers the scents you'll get. The selection is certainly not bad, but it can be a little tiring.

  In general, it will take some time to get used to the plot and characters. The book itself was a layered jungle of politics, crime and heartache, and the show aimed to match that texture.
