Warning: Spoilers
I don't give up 8 stars easily, and only a few amazon series rate this highly with me. Comments such as "they coulda shoulda done this" miss the point that these two young people are in way over their heads and the way this episode played out is plausible once that point is considered.

This is pretty good fiction, requiring suspension of disbelief as all fiction does. One entry under Goofs says that burning all that money could/shoulda been avoided because they coulda kept it by hiding it. This misses the point that robbery isn't the goal for Stefano; stopping Don Minu's deal and causing his death was the goal.

Is it a joke or what? (sequel)
searchanddestroy-114 May 2020
Undoubtely, this series is a joke, though being a very serious one. After the first episode, which I have already commented, in the fourth one, I laughed a lot, when the young man arrives in Dakar open market, desperately searching for a medicine and suddenly finds a very kind man who decides to purchase him exactly what he needs, just like that. The unknown man opens the conersation and brings our young lead to some kind of sorcerer, kingpin, big shot, who then brings the young man with him to his hideout, just like that, as if he was his long time friend, or his best friend's childhood pal. ha ha ha The screenwriters are better than the Monty Pythons....This is definitely very amateur style; such a shame, because besides this, I aprreciate this TV show.

Transshipment

Episode 4 and the Italian segment goes walkabout altogether.

It starts off in Mexico where Manuel makes a violent point. He is now in charge of the retail distribution of drugs in Monterrey. Anyone who crosses him has to deal with a sledgehammer to their head.

The constant conflict between his faith and his desire for money etched in Manuel's face. Not sure why, money is his god given the trail of blood he has left behind.

The pace is more sedate in Senegal. Chris and Emma try to get their hidden drug cargo in the ship through customs and to its onward journey.

Not an easy job as everyone is suspicious and demanding more baksheesh. Chris has no faith on their fixer.

It is time for Chris to step up and use a contact he has found.

It is all too convenient. Chris goes to a pharmacy looking to get prescription only painkillers and makes an unnecessary scene when he is refused. Anyone else would have asked for a dodgy doctor who would write out a prescription for a few bucks.

At least it gives the writers an excuse to hook up Chris with a Mr Big. The man with the contacts who can solve Chris and Emma's problems. To me it was clunky writing.

Comical (not intentional) and farfetched.

The first three episodes were more believable. Now, with the action taking place in Africa, the story line is very farfetched.
