perhaps less obvious than all the other things going on and other dynamics, but jack seems less competitive with Charlie and more confident in the role of her superior.. he lets her make the arrest, whereas before they would almost compete over it? this time, he is very laid back, almost as if he wants her too, but it is in a kind of training her up way? Which, she doesn't really need at all! Charlie is kick ass!
Something I like about this show is that not all the people they bring in to interview are actually connected to the case. In most cop shows, everything is so slick - the story line feels very contrived. In Suspects it is more true to life. The cops aren't always going to know who is connected and who isn't. I feel that we are discovering things in real time - this is accentuated by the fact that what comes out of their mouths is so unpredictable. And so, there are so many twists and turns, but they don't feel contrived, just REAL.

They are having to pursue this from all angles to find the motive. Charlie is gaining in confidence all the time and I think Jack knows she is more than capable. His snarkiness with her in this episode is because it is personal for him and he doesn't want to confront his feelings.
I think that he knows that Mick is guilty of something (much like he was with Hope's Dad - although he didn't kill Hope...he was still culpable). But I do also think that he isn't completely convinced that it was Saul.....there is room for doubt - it's almost like he wants it to be Saul because it vindicates his prejudice (not sure if that makes sense?)
I missed the Jack/Charlie competitive banter. I attributed it to how sensitive Jack became, taking things so personal. She had to basically walk on eggshells around him.

ooh interesting fifi... I am not sure I sensed him not wanting it to be Saul, more that he had a slightly unhinged obsession with it being him which he could only let go when it clearly really wasnt. But will watch with new awareness..

Makes sense to me.
I think at some point, that's how it felt to me, that after a while he wasn't 100% sure it was Saul, but he still latched onto Saul due to his prejudices, based on his personal past experience. And also, Jack doesn't like admitting he was wrong...
