| This is from Gossip & Gab. “Wild Rover” exceeded my expectations! I knew the writing would be excellent,Terrence Paul Winter has written some all-time favorite episodes of mine,including season four’s phenomenal “Cops and Robbers.” I also had enjoyed the season four’s Ryan-centric episode “Kick The Ballistics” There Seamus Dever brought an intensity to Ryan’s character that was riveting and I was looking forward to seeing more of the other side of Kevin Ryan in “The Wild Rover.” So, coming into this episode, my expectations were pretty high!
Let’s start with the case set up: a baker named Jimmy Whelan is found face-down in an industrial sized mixing bowl of chocolate. The momentary gimmick of the body being found it a vat of chocolate at a bakery was cute,but incidental. Of more importance was the briefcase with fifty thousand dollars the victim had stashed in the back. I’m glad the chocolate thing wasn’t important to the case, that would have been too comedic for the bulk of this episode. It did give the viewers a fun moment of Lanie (Tamala Jones) getting furious with Esposito by insinuating that the two have been “playing doctor” lately. Woo hoo! Esplanie is on!
