I have to admit, the second episode didn't quite win me over either. While the story itself isn't bad, I'm not a fan of the approach the Polish filmmakers have taken with it. The chief inspector's character doesn't quite sit right with me either; she seems to constantly wear this "I'm a tough, cool girl" expression. Despite that demeanor, she often loses her temper without clear reason, and it's starting to grate on me. / Lesson learned: Don't bring work home and don't bring your kids to work. 3*-
