Emily is now certain that something is not right with the GarrettвЂ™s and theyВ are involved inВ the disappearance of Molly and Oliver, but there is no evidence. Mary didnвЂ™t help putting doubts about Ian at ease, when Emily visited her at TonyвЂ™s request and asked her if Ian was questioned about MollyвЂ™s disappearance she was almost thrown out of the house. Tony assumes that Ian took harmed her, the assumption is reinforced by IanвЂ™s reaction as he abruptly ends the conversation and leaves.

Ian attempts to calm Tony down but reveals his sickening nature when pressed, I expected Tony to lunge at him as he always seems to do but he doesnвЂ™t, he sits down next to him and converses until they begin to talk about Molly, IanвЂ™s daughter.

At the police station Tony receives a visit from Ian because he has connections (conspiracy I tell you) and what proceeds is a scene that has got to be one of my highlights of the series. Ian is a slippery sod and is warned before hand by Vincent, so instead of the police coming to pick Ian up they arrest Tony for assaulting Vincent. He sends Emily to inform the police of what they have discovered while he attempts to coax the truth out of Garrett and find out what happened to Oliver. I understand that the show wants the audience to understand that Tony is violent but does it really need to be shoved down our throats every episode? ItвЂ™s getting tiring, the picture of the man he assaulted in the first episode wouldвЂ™ve been enough but it feels like it is getting repetitive.ДЄrmed with knowledge of IanвЂ™s perversion Tony decides to go ahead with a pre-planned meet with him, attempting to be sensible by meeting in a public place and not attacking him. Tony decides to take things into his own hands when he is ignored and once again confront Vincent Bourgh, beating him to a pulp until he reveals his relationship to Ian, that they share вЂmaterialsвЂ™. With Julien away in Paris he tries to convince the higher ups that Ian had something to do with Olivers disappearance but of course Ian is a respected member of the community so they were hesitant to pursue the rantings of a grieving father. Last weekвЂ™s episode showed Tony in 2006 discovering that Ian and Vincent had a connection as they both told him exactly the same anecdote. The bulk of this episode is set in the past and shows how the couple got to where they are, how Ian escaped his justice. Ian may have a lot of money but how could he have pulled off the vanishing act that has lasted this long? Why is he bothering when he is not a person of interest in the present day investigation of OliverвЂ™s disappearance? How could his wife run away with him knowing about his horrifying deeds without attempting to shove him off the boat? Clearly she shows signs of guilt but she takes her wedding vows a little too seriously, I think the man upstairs would forgive you if you left the creep.

We witness Ian and his wife Mary on a boat in the middle of the Ocean. After last weeks episode I was certain that Ian Garrett had been killed by Tony and/or Emily, so I was perplexed at the opening of вЂMollyвЂ™.
