    Critic’s Score: 3 / 5.0

    3

    Effectively, that was one thing.

    General, Accused Season 2 has been hit and miss with the installments, and this one falls nearer to the latter than the previous.

    “Margot’s Story” concerned a senior-aged lady who turned enamored with a con artist and wished to train some management over her life and really feel alive.

    No less than, that was the gist of the hour and what Margot needed to say at her trial.

    In some methods, the hour may’ve had issues that I discover loveliest like energetic senior-aged ladies nonetheless attempting to make the very best out of their lives or a second likelihood at love kind of romance which will or could not have concerned a youthful man.

    The hour had the makings of that, with Margot and her associates letting unfastened on the dance studio, particularly Connie, along with her brash persona that may be endearing.

    However as an Accused installment, it was somewhat underwhelming.

    Margo didn’t really feel like a completely realized and multidimensional character. I discovered her to be somewhat one-note, and it was onerous to understand her motivations for her sudden devotion to Alexei totally.

    Positive, he was good to her, and he or she was lonely, however was that every one it took?

    Margo was surrounded by such vibrant older ladies that it appeared odd that she abruptly put dancing with this teacher on the middle of her life as she did.

    We didn’t see sufficient of their relationship constructing as much as really feel strongly about it or make sense of her leaping in to assist him in any significant means, not to mention his making this deep connection along with her that had him not cashing the examine she gave him.

    Initially, it appeared prefer it may have been one other homicide case and that the sufferer was Wendy, who we routinely noticed treating Alexei like crap.

    It might’ve made sense if the way in which she handled him sparked one thing in Margot that prompted her to do one thing excessive.

    However as an alternative, it was concerning the scamming.

    Alexei was an notorious con artist who discovered methods to swindle cash out of these he felt may afford to lose it earlier than skipping city and shifting on to his subsequent mark.

    The concept of him beginning his personal dance studio and requiring the downpayment and sufficient cash to pay it off for a 12 months (which felt ludicrous) was sufficient to encourage others to contribute to the trigger.

    Connie purchased into what he was promoting and satisfied their different buddy to fork over some cash, contemplating it an funding.

    However proper out of the gate, it appeared like a sketchy one, as nobody did sufficient analysis or consulted with a monetary advisor.

    As a result of who randomly invests in a dance studio for a man they barely met?

    However, the hour labored to indicate how susceptible senior-aged individuals might be, making them excellent targets for scamming.

    Nonetheless, it reads poorly, just like the sensible elders we glance to are someway too dumb for their very own good.

    Amid this mess, we noticed a friendship falling aside as a result of Connie was jealous.

    There’s no different means of placing it.

    She didn’t like that the dance teacher she loved and appreciated flirting with devoted his time and a spotlight to Margot.

    It led to her concocting all these concepts in her head about what that relationship was like and projecting it.

    How on earth she instantly jumped to Margot being in on the rip-off is past me.

    It spoke volumes that Connie didn’t know the ins and outs of Margot’s monetary state of affairs that she misplaced her job, and even that she did give Alexei cash, too.

    In some methods, it appeared like they weren’t practically as shut as one would’ve thought, and the truth that Connie opted to get jealous and harbored all of this unstated resentment and negativity in the direction of her buddy was a tragic reflection of their bond.

    Connie fortunately acquired up on the stand to strengthen the prosecutor’s case towards Margot with out speaking along with her buddy about something or understanding.

    It was offputting, and he or she regarded like an fool when Margot took the stand to inform her reality.

    It’s an actual miracle that they might keep their friendship after that, however alas, this trio was alleged to be the epitome of sisterhood.

    Alexei seemingly made Margot really feel alive, no matter how shallow that got here throughout.

    And when Margot discovered the reality, she was hellbent on making him pay.

    But, it was nonetheless sudden that she would take the gun out of her buddy’s purse and confront him on the dance studio with all of the open home windows.

    Why not name the police or hold the gun hidden away till he did one thing that might’ve escalated issues?

    It was such an excessive response that we’re alleged to consider it resulted from Margot at all times getting the brief finish of the stick and attempting to take management of her life for as soon as.

    Nevertheless it was so impossibly reckless and silly.

    In spite of everything that, Alexei informed her the reality, and he or she instantly helped him flee to goodness is aware of the place.

    I don’t perceive her motivations behind that, both. Even when he didn’t steal her cash, he did to her associates and plenty of others.

    And it’s uncertain he’ll cease doing it both, particularly now that he acquired away with it, and Margot is the one particular person going through any actual penalties.

    He informed her she was particular, however was she? Or did he simply not get an opportunity to money her examine but and conned her into letting him go?

    The hour was removed from compelling, however no less than Margot didn’t go away for every part, solely her assault on a cop, which by no means would’ve occurred if she hadn’t confronted Alexei with a gun within the first place.

    Not like different Accused episodes, we noticed Margot’s life after the sentencing, which consisted of her on probation and dealing at a soup kitchen.

    And honestly, nothing resonated with this hour, so I’ll possible overlook the extent of it now that the credit have rolled.

    However having some stage legends helming the hour was good.

    Over to you, Accused Fanatics.

    Did you discover this Accused case fascinating?

    Why do you’re feeling Margot lined for Alexei?
