A lot to do in one episode ... resolve the family issues, resolve Linden's issues (it would have been nice to get a little backstory on the prior case that sent her over the edge but I guess that's not happening) and that's not even considering how they get the proof needed to finally arrest the murderer.

I think they spent too much time on the Bennett story arc. They could easily have been done with that in a couple of episodes and then had a good three episode arc on for the conclusion.

Yeah this is the most concrete failing so far this year. Why we spent half the season on that to have it resolved out of thin air I have no idea.

As to the Bennett story arc, the only reason I can come up with is that, in the original Danish version, the whole "Rosie is hanging out with a muslim" was ultimately related to the murderer and was an integral part of his motivation.
