Bizarre and thought-provoking at the same time

When the episode begins Bayliss and Emma Zoole wake up in the coffin she uses as a bed and he has some pain because he isn't used to sleep in it, only that later Zoole abruptly ends the affair because she becomes turned on after her boyfriend h**s her and Bayliss refuses to h** her (I assume you probably got it but IMDB wouldn't allow me to use the full words). After the title we cut to Sam Thorne, the anti-guns activist we saw in the previous episode, at a restaurant and after a few minutes is shot by a teen on behalf of a cartel so that they can give him the money for buying a new bike.

Pembleton and Bayliss, the dynamic duo of the show and if you arrived at this point you'll know what I mean, are supposed to investigate about a man that didn't reported the death of his wife and kept her in the house thinking she's alive tho she is starting the process of decay but it all goes awry after Bayliss snaps since he's still grieving for the end of his relationship: some time later Bayliss goes to a convenience store and after the cashier tells him that money isn't enough for what he had to buy (a six-pack and cookies) Bayliss helds the cashier at gunpoint only to have Pembleton arrive and stop Bayliss going further just like at the beginning with Zoole's boyfriend.

What I liked about this episode were the performances and most of the situations especially the one in the convenience store. But what prevented me to give a 9 was the story of the man that kept his dead wife in the chair and didn't even realized she was dead until Pembleton and Bayliss went to investigate, that was a bit gross even for the show's standards. However, the good outweights the bad here.
