Wow!!! Nancy is actually the daughter of Lucy. There are no words for this episode. Only that the beginning was kind of not too interesting. But it picked up quickly.

This episode, unfortunately, showcases everything that is wrong with this adaptation. And I'm using the term adaptation in the broadest way imaginable. The writing, once again, is poor. The suspense is mainly one of disbelief with the police failing to detect an entire skeleton in people's jackets and pants as the sad pinnacle of how stupid this show can get. The court case is solved by a literal Ghost in the (house) machine but we have a pay off.

A pay off that may be acceptable in a South American soap opera but is completely out of place here. I've only kept watching this show because I hoped, against better judgment, that it would pick itself up. That it would showcase Nancy Drew as the smart, independent role model from the books. The creators however seem to have no other intent than to destroy the legacy of Nancy Drew in favour of cheap twists and cliffhangers and lazy writing in order to solve those twists and cliffhangers.

It would have been a better use of my time if I just watched the Sophie Lillis fronted movie 8 times in a row.
