Once Peter breaks down the doors and exits the church. He finds a message saying, “A lion has come to lay waste to your land”. Back at the station, Virginia tells Annie about a confidential source’s bank statement. The informant is linked to Brady. Annie meets him at home seconds later.

Brady admits he had to kill Jesse, because he would’ve told everyone. Brady turns on Annie and prepares to kill her. She is saved as a truck runs Brady down.
Bellevue Review
This episode of Bellevue sunk deeper into the obscene. Just when you thought it couldn’t get any more ludicrous, it did. The big reveal wasn’t that big in the end. The reasoning behind Jesse’s murder was even more childish. It is really difficult to like Bellevue when the storyline is this unrealistic. It is clearly obvious that Adam is responsible for saving Annie’s life. So, will they finally team up and bring down Peter? We’ll find out in the next episode. A 4.5 out of 10 is deserved. Catch up with previous recaps of Bellevue now.
