Reacher	comment	Reacher is an American action/crime thriller series created in 2022. It is based off the Jack Reacher novel series by Lee Child, which previously saw two theatrical adaptations. It is streamed on Prime Video.Jack Reacher (Alan Ritchson) is a very tall and muscular wanderer who'd prefer to be left alone as he travels from town to town whenever the mood strikes him. Unfortunately for him, trouble always seems to follow him around and he usually finds himself neck deep in a murderous conspiracy no matter where he goes. As much as he'd like to ignore the situation and move on, he is never able to turn away, especially if innocents are involved, and he brings his analytical skills and large capacity for violence — honed from years as an US Army investigator and a rough-and-tumble childhood — to bear and take down the perpetrators once and for all.The first season is based on Killing Floor, the first novel, and sees Reacher arrive in the small town of Margrave, Georgia, hoping to learn more about a blues musician he's a fan of. However, he's soon arrested on suspicion of murder and finds himself embroiled in a deadly conspiracy that soon shatters the town's idyllic veneer. To solve this messy situation, Reacher teams up with police officers Oscar Finlay (Malcolm Goodwin) and Roscoe Conklin (Willa Fitzgerald).The second season is based on Bad Luck and Trouble, the eleventh novel, and sees Reacher reunite with members of his former investigations team to look into the death of one of their own. They soon become the targets of multiple, violent assassination attempts linked to a major defense contractor.

Reacher / int_11c70cd6	comment	The Man in Front of the Man: The mysterious ringleader of the villain's operation is revealed in the final episode to be KJ, Kilner Sr's Spoiled Brat son. His father was the one who arranged the operation in the first place, but KJ turns out to be a great deal more bloodthirsty and ruthless than his father, having participated in or caused most of the vicious torture and gruesome deaths throughout the show, including Joe's, and eventually murdered his father to take over the operation entirely. Everybody who learns this, from Reacher, to Finlay to Hubble, is taken aback that he's not just the rich kid riding his successful father's coattails that he appeared to be from the outset.

Reacher / int_12f078f3	comment	Artistic License â€“ Linguistics: The use of "carpetbagger" by a white Southerner who at most might be thirty years old. This term hasn't been spoken aloud by anyone from the South in a very long time, as the term was referring to the Reconstruction Era and at most, maybe someone elderly would say it, but certainly not the snot-nosed psycho KJ. The use of Yankee while describing Finlay isn't accurate. Most Georgians refer to anyone from anywhere north of Virginia as simply a Northerner. Yankee phased out sometime around the 1960's as a common term for non-Southerners.

Reacher / int_170cf4b6	comment	Reacher sees somebody watching his old friend's house, having just discovered evidence that he was likely murdered at some point from the corpse of his pet dog inside, having died of dehydration. With both of his BerserkButtons firmly pushed, he marches straight up to the tail and starts applying his usual method of dealing with the villains....only to discover afterwards that the guy was a legitimate NYPD cop Working the Same Case. Rushing off to manhandle people you suspect is involved in The Conspiracy doesn't actually mean they are, and Reacher lands himself in hot water by not verifying whom to target first, like he did back in Margrave. Reacher decides to skip town for a bit until the heat dies down, but when the trail leads back to New York once more, his car is promptly stopped by a cop and he is arrested soon after. The detective tracked Reacher down, figured out that he was driving a rented car and put a BOLO out on the car. Not all police are incompetent or ineffective at their jobs, they just have more restrictions to abide by than Reacher has the patience to deal with.

KJ is presented as a spoiled rich who runs errands for his criminal father, and Dawson seems to just follow him around, shooting mean looks. As it turns out, Dawson is sufficiently Axe-Crazy to be a serious threat. He kills a substantial number of people and comes dangerously close to taking Reacher out in single combat. And far from being his father's lackey, KJ was the one conducting a campaign of torture and murder to protect their counterfeiting operation. He ends up killing his own father to take control and become the true Big Bad of the season.

Justified in that while he is large, his opponents aren't usually prepared for his intelligence, combat skill, speed, or his willingness to fight dirty. Reacher underestimates KJ and Dawson, dismissing them as spoiled brats who are used to hiding behind money and whose arrogance far outweighs their actual competence and bravery. Reacher is genuinely blindsided by how dangerous, cunning and surprisingly brave they turn out to be.

Reacher / int_1e1aa82a	comment	Diabolus ex Machina: Reacher and the remaining 110th have been kicking the ass of everyone Langston throws at them with little effort and barely a few scratches, and just need to find out where they're having the Little Wing buy to stop them....but then out of the blue, O'Donnell and Dixon have been kidnapped offscreen and now Reacher has to surrender to stop them being tortured to death like Franz and the others were. Its particularly egregious because with how much fight the two have previously shown putting up, its hard to buy Langston's men being able to take them down alive, never mind the fact up until this point, he's been trying to have them killed on-sight rather than captured. While capturing them to force Reacher to surrender is a smarter plan, up until this point, Langston had been somewhat defined as being completely out of his depth as a Big Bad and not really the kind to think that far ahead, not to mention the only way he was able to capture them is because Reacher (offscreen) apparently used Russo's easily trackable police-issue car to drive to the motel they were staying at, which is a remarkably big oversight on Reacher's part. It's not helped by the fact in the previous episode, Reacher had Langston dead to rights and he only got away thanks to an out-of-nowhere helicopter showing up to rescue him, which also feels like this.

Reacher / int_1e584efa	comment	This is the reasoning behind the location chosen for the Cruel and Unusual Death method used by the villains in season 2. Being dropped out of a helicopter hundreds of feet above the ground is not always guaranteed to be fatal, despite the odds, and it is possible to survive the landing. To remedy this, they intentionally dump them in the woods around the Catskill Mountains, away from the hiking trails, to ensure that even if the unfortunate victim survives the fall, they won't be found, and will either die of their injuries, exposure or wild animals in their immobile state.

Reacher / int_21f3aa44	type	Good Is Not Nice
Reacher / int_21f3aa44	comment	Good Is Not Nice: Reacher is firmly on the side of good but he is abrasive, blunt, anti-social, often rude, has no issue intimidating and threatening even allies, and is perfectly willing to brutalize, seriously injure or outright kill opponents with no hesitation or remorse. Reacher arranges a meeting at the law firm representing Kliner's business interests under false pretenses, then demands a file concerning the case from the lawyer he meets with, quickly resorting to beating and choking the guy to secure his compliance. Once he coughs up the file, Reacher threatens to kill him painfully if he looks into him any further. The firm itself and the lawyer in particular, by all appearances, have nothing to do with the conspiracy; Reacher just needed the information and got it in the most expedient manner available to him. The lawyer's only crime was unknowingly representing criminals. Reacher's team are much more amicable than he is, but just as prone to ruthlessness. It's most strikingly demonstrated in the second season finale, where they execute a defenseless A.M. and the last two remaining members of the conspiracy. They were admittedly bad people, but it's still very cold-blooded.

Naturally, Reacher doesn't like showing affection, but it's quite clear based on their interactions they trust each other implicitly and Neagley immediately comes to his aid after his "luck" comment in the finale. Season 2 repeats the first example with Detective Russo, who by their last interaction is clearly approaching genuine friendship with Reacher. He even offers to let him take the first swing in their promised fight.

It is without a doubt a cool and powerful piece of hardware that saves Reacher's bacon more than once, but it's definitely not the most practical gun out there.

Reacher / int_33987735	comment	Disposing of a Body Subverted in season 1 as the bad guys want their victims to be found as a warning to anyone who might stand in their way. In season 2, the bad guys like to kill their victims by dropping them out a helicopter over the Catskill Mountains. If they miracously survive the fall, they will die of exposure soon after. The victim is dropped far from any hiking trails which means that the body might not be discovered for months or years by which time most forensic evidence would have been destroyed by nature. The plot is kicked off because some hikers go off trail and discover Franz's body. Once the police know where to look, they find more bodies. Reacher and Dixon kill some hitmen sent after them and get rid of the bodies by dumping them into the cement on a construction site.

A group of officers from another unit took offence at this since Neagley was an enlisted and thus not eligible to be in the bar. A Bar Brawl ensued. All of it was part of Reacher's plan. He needed his team to start trusting each other and nothing unites a group faster than fighting against a common enemy. He knew that the officers from the rival unit regularly visited that bar on Thursdays and that they were the type of people who would pick a fight over an enlisted drinking in their bar. He also knew that the people he selected for his team would stand up to such bullies would quickly bond over the experience.

Langston quickly states that "I don't give a shit." An interesting one as the actor isn't the one in the scene, but a scene in season 2 briefly has Russo gush about how cool he thought Aquaman was as a kid. One of the more well known earlier roles of Alan Ritchson's (Reacher himself) is playing Aquaman in Smallville. Given Aquaman's reputation in pop culture, its pretty clear this was a deliberate nod to Ritchson's time as the character.

Reacher / int_3abfffa4	type	DavidVsGoliath
Reacher / int_3abfffa4	comment	David vs. Goliath: This usually ends up being the case with most people Reacher faces off against, as he's naturally towering a foot over most people and is built like a brick shithouse, but it's most apparent in Reacher's face-off with Dawson Kliner in the penultimate episode. Dawson is shorter than most people and the height and muscle disparity would clearly indicate a fist-fight between them would end decisively in Reacher's favour, but surprisingly, Jack actually loses in hand-to-hand combat with him. He makes up for his shorter stature with relentless ferocity and single-minded determination, attacking Jack with a crowbar and ignoring any guns in favour of beating him to death, shrugging off most of Reacher's blows and bouncing back whenever he's tossed around the room. Jack actually seems taken aback by his sheer energy in a fight and ultimately has to resort to blasting him point-blank with three Desert Eagle rounds to put him down. In season 2, we get a flip of this briefly with Reacher's sidekick O'Donnell (played by 5'8 Shaun Sipos) who is visibly dwarfed by Reacher and several of the mooks they fight; in one particular fight, he ends up facing off with someone twice his size both in height and width, and nearly kills him through sheer physical strength. Because of his more modest size, he's shown fighting primarily with switchblades and brass knuckles, utilising them to great affect to get the upper hand on opponents.

Played with in that while normal people hold no real threat to Reacher, he's not completely invincible. He can be overwhelmed by superior numbers given enough time, and when facing an opponent with skill and training it's a lot harder for him to take them down, often resorting to desperate measures to take them out. Out-of-their-mind lunatics like KJ or his cousin Dawson who make up for their lack of practiced training with insane ferocity in a pitched fight require him to expend more effort than usual to put them down as well.

He has no care for the rules or restrictions in any situations, and has no problem breaking the law to get what he wants. As he's fond of pointing out to others, they have rules and regulations, but he doesn't. Lampshaded in season 2 when the NYPD detective demands Reacher not do any "cowboy shit" after he just set off a pipe bomb in a residential neighborhood to kill some goons. As soon as he leaves, Reacher's next order is to do exactly that. Detective Russo is willing to bend the law, notably by covering up Reacher's crimes and keeping Reaxher unlawfully detained.

Reacher / int_3ec18c6f	comment	Reacher demonstrates an impressive Sherlock Scan from time to time based on his background as a military investigator, but like the great detective, he's not always correct in his deductions — he's often close, but sometimes the actual facts are not quite what he assumes they are, since he's partially guessing the context from an outside perspective. For example, he assumed Finlay's wife had divorced him, when she had actually passed away. And whilst he's fairly open-minded and non-judgemental, Reacher does have a few biases that can offset his deductive prowess. He assumes that KJ is an arrogant Spoiled Brat, which is true, but that blinds him to how dangerous KJ is besides just being a rich kid riding his dad's success. Season 2 clarifies that part of his reasoning for setting up the Special Investigators unit was his acknowledgement of this, as Reacher doesn't possess Encyclopaedic Knowledge allowing him to single-handedly understand all the ins and outs of every crime to fully comprehend it, so he recruited people from different fields of expertise to offer their insights to cover for this. Another case is his guess that Neagley, who he otherwise correctly knew would be staying off the radar and would avoid all tourist spots, would be staying in a lower-cost motel due to having grown up poor. Instead she's happily staying in a much fancier hotel as she can afford such luxuries now; he assumed that her background would make her frugal and that she would share his own minimlaist approach, but in actuality, it made her appreciate what she can afford to do now and take advantage of her higher income to treat herself. Reacher misses the fact that a key is a standard USPS PO Box key. He lived on army bases most of his life and never had a PO Box himself or had to access one. Neagley on the other hand, instantly recognizes it since she works as a private investigator in New York, has seen lots of keys liek that and probably has a PO Box of her own.

Reacher / int_3ed23024	type	Surprisingly Realistic Outcome
Reacher / int_3ed23024	comment	Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: After almost an entire season of Reacher effortlessly demolishing mooks, during his fight with Dawson at the Hubble house, Reacher actually loses the fight and is almost killed. Why? Because when swung around by a reasonably strong person, a crowbar is a devastating weapon, and all the advantages in the world in size, reach and hand-to-hand combat skills are only going to take a man so far if he is unarmed. While Reacher is an skilled fighter who can demolish pretty much any regular thug he fights with ease, other trained soldiers are a different matter. While his size, strength and speed give him a considerable advantage, he still struggles more against someone who knows how to fight than he would against regular criminals who he can take down in seconds and even more so when facing multiple opponents at which point Reacher only wins through assistance or separating and fighting them one at a time. Similarly, while Reacher's size is commented on multiple times, and he does demonstrate feats of impressive strength, this is typically done in casual, non-combative methods, and his fights are instead won by skill, and other skilled fighters do surprisingly well against him despite the size disadvantage. While size and strength aren't useless by any means, skill and experience will very quickly close that advantage immediately; of note, the average height of a US servicemen is between 5'6-6'1 (so basically, the average height for non-servicemen), as the US military does not make an effort to prioritise physically stronger/larger recruits when the training regime is already specifically designed to turn anyone able-bodied into a trained killer. As tough as he is, Reacher is not invulnerable. During one fight, his opponent recovers the gun he had and holds it on Reacher which forces Reacher to surrender and he is only saved by Roscoe shooting the other man dead. He is similarly shown to be taken aback and wary after attacking KJ when KJ pulls a knife on him and before recognizing one another, O'Donnell is able to end their fight by simply holding a knife to Reacher's femoral artery, a wound which would cause Reacher to bleed to death as quickly and easily as anyone else. Roscoe getting her ass kicked while fighting Teale in the finale. She is faster than him and more than half his age (and she demonstrates some skill when fighting), but she's also tiny and barely weighs 100 pounds, so he easily throws her and tackles her before she wises up and handcuffs him to a nearby bar to even the odds in her favor. Teale stupidly thinks he can outdraw her and gets shot through the eye for his trouble. In the same episode, we see Neagley also get into a hand-to-hand fight with one of their mooks and she does far better despite her opponent being in better shape than Teale; though Neagley is also a woman, she's much taller and visibly more athletic than Roscoe, while the mook she fought was of average height and size, making the size/weight gap far less significant. As Neagley is also a trained special forces vet, she's trained specifically to kill men in armed combat and has much more experience at this than Roscoe, who though a demonstrative Action Girl is still just a cop in a small town that seemingly didn't have much crime. The villains in the first season have relatively recently taken to regularly using extreme violence in order to remove enemies and make an example of those who oppose them. This draws heavy attention to them, makes them more enemies than they can chew off (including Reacher himself due to his brother now being a murder victim) and makes it increasingly obvious who is/was involved in their conspiracy (and that such a conspiracy exists in the first place). Furthermore, whereas before they were simply being investigated, it's now increasingly acceptable to deal with them via violence as well, placing even their own lives in danger. It turns out this is due to KJ Kliner performing a de facto (and later actual) coup on his father, who KJ mocks for preferring more quiet criminal methods. As it turns out, having an actual psychopath run such an operation does not end well. In less than a year of their takeover, KJ and Dawson had to burn through all of the resources KJ's father spent decades building to fight off the numerous foes and public infamy the Margrave operation had drawn, and in the end it still collapsed. Reacher demonstrates an impressive Sherlock Scan from time to time based on his background as a military investigator, but like the great detective, he's not always correct in his deductions — he's often close, but sometimes the actual facts are not quite what he assumes they are, since he's partially guessing the context from an outside perspective. For example, he assumed Finlay's wife had divorced him, when she had actually passed away. And whilst he's fairly open-minded and non-judgemental, Reacher does have a few biases that can offset his deductive prowess.

Season 2 clarifies that part of his reasoning for setting up the Special Investigators unit was his acknowledgement of this, as Reacher doesn't possess Encyclopaedic Knowledge allowing him to single-handedly understand all the ins and outs of every crime to fully comprehend it, so he recruited people from different fields of expertise to offer their insights to cover for this.

Reacher misses the fact that a key is a standard USPS PO Box key. He lived on army bases most of his life and never had a PO Box himself or had to access one. Neagley on the other hand, instantly recognizes it since she works as a private investigator in New York, has seen lots of keys liek that and probably has a PO Box of her own. This is the reasoning behind the location chosen for the Cruel and Unusual Death method used by the villains in season 2. Being dropped out of a helicopter hundreds of feet above the ground is not always guaranteed to be fatal, despite the odds, and it is possible to survive the landing. To remedy this, they intentionally dump them in the woods around the Catskill Mountains, away from the hiking trails, to ensure that even if the unfortunate victim survives the fall, they won't be found, and will either die of their injuries, exposure or wild animals in their immobile state. A minor case in Season 2. Reacher's life as a wanderer going from place to place and having no social media means by which he can be contacted or tracked, save coded messages sent via the bank account he withdraws money from, means he is very out of touch even with his closest friends form the Army. It was noted to be complete serendipity that he happened to turn up nearby so soon after Joe's death to learn about it, and when reuniting with the Special Investigation unit, he discovers one of their members had died in a car accident the year before, and nobody bothered to contact him about it because it wasn't an emergency. Likewise, save for Neagley, none of the others were aware Joe had died because Reacher never broadcast that information. Reacher sees somebody watching his old friend's house, having just discovered evidence that he was likely murdered at some point from the corpse of his pet dog inside, having died of dehydration. With both of his BerserkButtons firmly pushed, he marches straight up to the tail and starts applying his usual method of dealing with the villains....only to discover afterwards that the guy was a legitimate NYPD cop Working the Same Case. Rushing off to manhandle people you suspect is involved in The Conspiracy doesn't actually mean they are, and Reacher lands himself in hot water by not verifying whom to target first, like he did back in Margrave. Reacher decides to skip town for a bit until the heat dies down, but when the trail leads back to New York once more, his car is promptly stopped by a cop and he is arrested soon after. The detective tracked Reacher down, figured out that he was driving a rented car and put a BOLO out on the car. Not all police are incompetent or ineffective at their jobs, they just have more restrictions to abide by than Reacher has the patience to deal with. Reacher prepares to load up on weapons for himself and his team before being told he has to go through the proper channels for gun ownership, only skating around through some careful use of legal loopholes and bribing the owner of the store to not ask questions. Even then, the crew are aware that getting caught with their weapons could get them serious jail time.

In the book, Gray contacted a New Orleans homicide cop who investigated Kliner for murdering EPA officials to find out what the Kliner family was up to before they came to Margrave. That cop's name is on Joe's list, so he presumably told Joe about Gray's file. In the show, the third phone number on Joe's list belongs to an EPA office and it's never mentioned that Gray had any contact with them. Finlay being a former smoker rather than a recovering alcoholic makes it harder to tell why the corrupt local big shots hired a competent potential Spanner in the Works prior to the beginning of the show. In the book, his drinking caused them to assume he'd be too incompetent to learn anything about them.

He then finds an excuse to fire Roscoe for a minor mistake and later cans Finlay once he realizes they're going behind his back investigating the real clues instead of the fake ones he's given them. In the end, though, Finlay goes rogue to help Reacher and Hubble save his family and Roscoe, so Teale's efforts were in vain. Mostly averted in season 2. Det Russo is competent and his investigation into Franz's death is progressing at a good pace given he lacks the background knowledge the Special Investigators have. He is able to track Reacher down and detain him as soon as he arrives back in New York City. Once he and Reacher cooperate, Russo could have blown the case wide open if it was not for the fact that the Denver cops do prove themselves to be useless in running a covert surveilence operation.

If Reacher had simply walked a few steps away, that might not have happened.

Reacher / int_74828aea	comment	This usually ends up being the case with most people Reacher faces off against, as he's naturally towering a foot over most people and is built like a brick shithouse, but it's most apparent in Reacher's face-off with Dawson Kliner in the penultimate episode. Dawson is shorter than most people and the height and muscle disparity would clearly indicate a fist-fight between them would end decisively in Reacher's favour, but surprisingly, Jack actually loses in hand-to-hand combat with him. He makes up for his shorter stature with relentless ferocity and single-minded determination, attacking Jack with a crowbar and ignoring any guns in favour of beating him to death, shrugging off most of Reacher's blows and bouncing back whenever he's tossed around the room. Jack actually seems taken aback by his sheer energy in a fight and ultimately has to resort to blasting him point-blank with three Desert Eagle rounds to put him down.

Reacher / int_75538142	comment	Friend to All Children: Downplayed, but Reacher is noticeably more soft-spoken and less taciturn when around Hubble's two young daughters than he is with most adults. This also extends to dogs; Reacher is shown being very fond of dogs and in both seasons, he ends up hurting someone because they hurt a dog. In season one, he happens past some jerk who inherited a dog he doesn't want that he neglected to the point the dog was starving and had bruises around his neck from his leash. Reacher warns the guy to take care of the dog or it won't be pretty. The guy doesn't listen and gets himself a nice punch in the face and Reacher gives the dog to Finlay. In season two, they find one of their friends' homes and the poor dog died because he was kidnapped, so no one was there to feed it or give it any water. Reacher is so angry about it that he doesn't think first and beats up the person he knows is tailing them, only to find out the guy was a cop, not a hitman.

Reacher / int_7febc23b	comment	Establishing Character Moment: In Reacher's opening scene, he gets off a bus and walks along down a highway, happens upon a Jerkass threatening his girlfriend and stares the guy down until he stops and apologizes. Then he goes into a diner, but before he can start eating, notices police cars approaching, looks around the diner, deduces that the cops are coming for him, and places his hands on the table as not to give the cops a reason to shoot him. All of this without saying a single word. This establishes most of his core character in a couple of minutes: his solitude, his very intimidating presence, his sense of justice, his situational awareness, his calm under pressure, and his taciturn nature. Later on, when Reacher is being interrogated by Finlay and he speaks for the first time, he makes some impressive deductions about the murder, based on just a few details that Finlay gave him. He also corrects Finlay on the terminology he uses. This proves to Finlay (and the audience) that he's actually a brilliant and meticulous investigator. Finlay's first scene has him entering the lobby of the police station when an officer is trying to intimidate Reacher into talking by threatening to toss him in a holding cell. He reminds the officer of Reacher's constitutional rights and the necessity of following strict protocol when handling him. One of the other officers mutters an insult at Finlay under his breath as he walks away that alludes to his Boston background. This establishes that Finlay is a by-the-book officer of the law that contrasts with the more unrefined cops in Margrave, and that he doesn't fit in with the rest of the force, nor is he particularly liked, and is an out of towner.

Suffice to say when Reacher starts dispatching them, no one feels sorry for their fate. Some of their own victims as well. Chief Morrison, who is brutally killed by KJ and/or the South American assassins, was a corrupt cop involved in Pete and Joe's murders. Spivey, who is killed by the South Americans, was a corrupt prison guard who tried to have Hubble killed. And while Kliner Sr. may not have been involved in or even approved of the murders committed by KJ (hence KJ slitting his throat), he did still run a shady counterfeiting operation and cruelly forced Hubble to be a part of it. At one point, KJ tells Roscoe that Reacher killed some civilians in Iraq. Turns out, this was because they were child abusers.

Reacher intends to first dismantle whatever is going on, then he'll kill Kliner. Reacher and his unit in season two are absolutely going to find who murdered the other members of their unit and they are going to put the fear of God in them before they end their miserable lives, especially since said members were tortured before being killed.

Despite being the main driver behind the counterfeiting operation, it's ultimately still their American partners whom are the main antagonists that Reacher has to deal with, as whomever they are is simply too far out of his reach to realistically enact retribution against.

Reacher quickly demonstrates the sheer power of the thing by testing it out on a tree stump and blasting a sizeable hole through it. While it's still quite impractical compared to more sensibly sized guns, Reacher's enormous size and strength enables him to deal with most of its worst drawbacks (namely, weight and punishing recoil). It might also have been a deliberate pick by the showrunners because anything smaller would've looked like a toy in his hands (notably, throughout season 2 he's largely using modest handguns like Glocks and Berettas, and they do in fact look like toys in his hands).

Reacher / int_9d12bbc1	type	Foreshadowing
Reacher / int_9d12bbc1	comment	Foreshadowing: The villains seems to have a surprisingly large reach and insight into Reacher and his allies' attempts to uncover the truth, ranging from being able to intimidate a policeman in another state into killing his partner and attempting to kill Reacher and Neagley as well, to tracking down Hubble's family at the FBI safehouse Picard stashed them at. It's noted that their plans would require a corrupt FBI agent on the inside to prevent any investigations into their international counterfeiting operation and the finale eventually reveals The Mole, Picard himself. Picard notes several times that he warned Finlay not to take the Margrave posting when the former continually runs into opposition from the locals and his own allies inside the force. It's given a different aspect to it once its revealed that Picard is The Mole for the counterfeiters, and didn't want Finlay investigating the town or he'd have to kill him. Early on, Reacher gets into a brief knife fight with what appears to be a random thug Spivey hired to kill him, only to later reveal that said thug was actually a trained ex-soldier from his fighting stance, hence him being able to land several cuts on Reacher during the fight. When Reacher punches KJ for spray-painting the word "WHORE" on Roscoe's car as a harassment tactic to antagonize Reacher through his friends, during the ensuring beatdown, KJ grabs a nearby knife and adopts a similar pose, visibly struggling to not attack Reacher with it when his father interferes to diffuse the fight and order Reacher out of town. It's later shown that KJ is one of the primary hitmen in The Conspiracy, having learned the art of torture and murder from their Venezuelan partners, and is a great deal more psychotic than he appears to be on the surface. When Reacher and Finlay first meet, Reacher deduces that Finlay's wife has either divorced him or passed away. He concludes divorce based on the fact that it's the more likely option for someone of Finlay's age, and Finlay never corrects him. Later, when Reacher mocks Finlay's wife for leaving him, Finlay gets incredibly upset and tells Reacher to keep his wife's name out of his mouth. Finlay's reaction is understandable given that Reacher assumed wrong, and Finlay's wife did pass away, and he blames himself for not being able to save her. Reacher notes that Kliner's farm has an unusual amount of animal feed, even for a pasture farm with 116 cows on it. It later turns out the animal feed contains a absorbing agent that they use in tandem with their specialized chemical that can bleach the ink off of the US dollar bills to allow the paper — one of its unique identifying markers — to be re-used to create counterfeit $100 'super-bills' that can pass for the real thing. They do this to avoid the resulting pollution that almost got them caught before in their previous location. To make Roscoe behave, Teale threatens to drown Hubble's kids in the bleaching chemicals used in the counterfeiting operation; Reacher later dunks KJ headfirst in a vat of said chemicals, only to take him out and throw him into a burning stack of boxes, setting him on fire. After Reacher and Roscoe meet up with Picard to find out what happened to Joe Reacher's notes, they are quickly ambushed by the Venezuelans right after they discover the hiding place where Joe had stashed them. They wonder how the Venezuelans were able to find them so quickly, and reason that it was due to Stevenson being The Mole inside the police department. Later on, after Roscoe takes over watching Charlie Hubble and her kids from Picard, they are again tracked down by the Venezuelans in short order. The reveal of Picard working for Kliner's forces shows that this was due to him tipping the bad guys off on where to find Reacher and his associates. In Season 2, Special Investigator Swan is given focus in the flashback in Episode 3. Reacher will later find and steal a picture at the place that they break into showing that Swan works there. The villains of Season 2 are participating in a far-reaching scheme involving the sale of top secret US military technology on the international black market and colluding with international arms dealers, but the mooks they keep sending after Reacher and the Special Investigators are street level thugs (at one point they resort to sending a biker gang after them). This foreshadows the fact that Langston and his team are all former NYPD that took early retirement to avoid an Internal Affairs investigation. The reason they keep sending street level thugs after Reacher and his friends is that they are jumped up dirty cops who are out of their league, those being the kind of lowlifes they leaned on back when they were cops. The nature of the Season 2 bad guys is also subtly hinted at in another way in the first episode of the season by the fact that Detective Russo and Saropian both follow Reacher and Neagley in a way that is shown in identical manner, hinting at the fact that they have the same NYPD training.

Reacher / int_b032e4ed	comment	Ms. Fanservice: Roscoe is played by the lovely Willa Fitzgerald, who gets a brief topless scene when Roscoe joins Reacher in the shower, and herself strips down to her underwear in the second episode. Neagley, downplayed compared to Roscoe, but we also get a scene where she casually strips off her clothes and underwear to change out of wet clothes in front of Reacher (who is similarly stripped down himself). Sure, they're Platonic Life-Partners, but it's also revealed that Neagley is asexual: the reason she had no compunctions about being nude in front of Reacher is because he's well aware of this fact and she knows she can trust him. In season 2, she's forced to wear a dress when attending a performance, which O'Donnell compliments despite Neagley hating having to dress anything other than casual. Dixon, slightly more than Neagley; she's shown in flashbacks dressed in more formal officer attire than the army fatigues of the rest of the unit, including wearing heels and figure shaping skirts, while in the present, strips down to her underwear for sex scenes with Reacher, and regularly wears low plunging tops that show off her cleavage. She's not quite on Roscoe's level, as she's yet to have a full on topless scene, but she also gets a scene in a dress that shows off her figure quite well.

She delivers a prompt beatdown before Reacher can even clear his seat to do it himself. Reacher absolutely snaps when he sees that KJ has painted the word "WHORE" on the side of Roscoe's truck. He is self-aware enough to know the entire thing is a trap to get him to beat KJ up and get himself arrested, and calmly outlines this to KJ's face before clarifying that he still doesn't care and still delivers a much deserved ass-whupping anyway. Seeing animals harmed is a big one for Reacher. He spends much of the first season making sure a dog is rescued from it's abusive owner who he gives a beatdown to and he goes apeshit upon seeing a dog died in a home and attacks the cop trailing him, mistakenly believing he was involved. Any implication that someone Reacher cares about or respects is corrupt or involved in shady dealings will seriously piss him off. He barely restrains himself from attacking Finlay when he suggests that Joe was in bed with money launderers, leading to his death, and refuses to even entertain the idea that his former colleague and friend Swan could have been dirty. NYPD Detective Russo is, underneath his grumpy exterior, an honest and principled cop who gets very angry if someone accuses him of being dirty, mainly because his father was killed by corrupt cops after refusing to join their illegal activities. Even insinuating that he's anything less than clean will elicit a profane tirade in response.

KJ was part of the cleaner team that Reacher slaughtered in the Hubble house and ended up being drowned in the swimming pool. Here, KJ survives until the end, where heâ€™s dunked in a tank of chemicals, then thrown into a bunch of burning boxes, setting him alight.

Finlay himself, meanwhile, is instead a fan of white rock singers from the 80s and 90s, such as Kansas (of Carry On Wayward Son fame), music which Reacher thinks is shit. Both of this results in Reacher explaining to Finlay (again, a black man), how important and influential blues music is to African-American culture, while Finlay gushes to Reacher about how he appreciates how much white boys can rock out, with the other mutually expressing bafflement at the other's enthusiasm for their chosen genre. When Reacher realizes that he and Hubble have accidentally (on purpose) been placed with the lifers instead of a cell for those awaiting arraignment, he warns Hubble that someone like him (clearly weak, nebbish, and easy to intimidate) is going to be treated like currency by the other inmates. Hubble worked as a currency manager for Kliner industries before getting arrested.

O'Donnell meanwhile is the only one in the room talking, and talking a lot, casually lampshading the odd bunch the 110th are, makes a couple of somewhat mean jokes at their expense and rolls with their retorts, all the while casually playing with a switchblade, establishing him as a Deadpan Snarker and The Lancer with a Vitriolic Best Buds dynamic among the unit, and one with a favoured weapon.

Reacher actually accidentally gets in trouble after going to one of their homes and finding that their poor dog died of starvation and thirst because after he was kidnapped, no one was around to take care of it, and Reacher assumes the guy tailing them is one of the hitmen, so he goes over to the car and beats the living shit out of him...only to find out the guy is an NYPD cop.

When they confront his widow, she admits that she always knew that his money could not have been obtained legally and she suspected that he was stealing air conditioners that he was supposed to be transporting. Reacher and Roscoe quickly realize that the guy had way more money then he could obtain from stealing a few air conditioners every month and he was likely skimming counterfeit cash off the top of the shipments. Reacher quickly realizes that there is something off about Margrave because it is much nicer looking and well-maintained than a small Georgia town like that should be. Kliner's foundation donates a lot of money to the town and makes sure that the town stays prosperous. This way the locals have a strong disincentive to look closer at Kliner's operations. Kliner is very careful with his spending and hired Hubble specifically to make sure that all his financials look above the board. Reacher becomes suspicious when he realizes that certain aspects of Kliner's operations, like his cattle herd, are right below the size limit where they would attract additional government oversight. Reacher correctly concludes that these are the areas requiring further investigation. Reacher notes on several occasions that Kliner's foundation spends a lot of money on animal feed despite only owning a fairly small herd of cattle, which no one else seems concerned by. The feed is used to mop up spills from the chemicals used to bleach the $1 notes used in the counterfeiting operation, and the herd was just a decoy to ensure that no one local would ask too many questions, as cattle farming is common in the area and they'd just chalk it up to that. Reacher took note of it because he's not local.

Finlay and Roscoe just dismiss this because Kliner Sr. owns a large cattle farm but Reacher won't drop it to the point where Roscoe gets annoyed that he keeps bringing it up. Reacher turns out to be correct — the animal feed contains an ingredient necessary for the counterfeiting process and the cattle were just used as a cover. In season 2 Reacher absolutely refuses to entertain the idea that Swan (by this point their last missing member of the 110th) is dirty and shuts down any discussion about it despite mounting evidence that Swan is involved with Little Wing. Reacher is right, and Swan is innocent. Swan uncovered what Langston was up to and went to Marlo, before contacting other members of the 110th for help. This got them all targeted by Langston.

He changes his mind when he finds out the dead body is his brother Joe. Jobling's widow leaves her home and the state almost as soon as Reacher and Roscoe inform her of his death, wanting nothing to do with the criminal activities that got him killed. This saves her life when the bad guys burn her house to the ground to destroy any evidence Jobling might've stashed in it. Downplayed, but Stevenson and his wife decide to move closer to her parents in a different town as bodies keep piling up and it becomes clear that the investigation will likely lead to the end of Margrave as they know it. Sadly, before they get a chance, the hit squad comes after them for information they don't even have, and they're both killed. In season 2, when Neagley and Dixon go to question Ambiguously Evil executive Marlo Burns, they find her house abandoned, with signs of frantic packing, a bag full of money left lying in a closet, and a jewelry box left behind, all indications that Burns fled with the bare essentials. A later episode reveals that she was really running from the villains and left behind the money to signal that she was refusing to help them anymore. When one of the hit men hired to kill Reacher's team at Franz's funeral sees his colleague get headshot by Neagly from twenty or so yards away with a handgun, he takes off running for his getaway car. In "The Man Goes Through", Lieutenant Marsh a Dirty Cop who suspects Reacher is onto him and may come calling as part of his Roaring Rampage of Revenge, is packing his possessions to go on the run when Reacher gets the drop on him. As a Death by Materialism Brick Joke, unlike Burns, he takes the time to pack his bag of bribe money and other valuables when there's a chance he might have gotten away if he hadn't lingered that long.

Reacher / int_dae5c997	comment	In the same episode, we see Neagley also get into a hand-to-hand fight with one of their mooks and she does far better despite her opponent being in better shape than Teale; though Neagley is also a woman, she's much taller and visibly more athletic than Roscoe, while the mook she fought was of average height and size, making the size/weight gap far less significant. As Neagley is also a trained special forces vet, she's trained specifically to kill men in armed combat and has much more experience at this than Roscoe, who though a demonstrative Action Girl is still just a cop in a small town that seemingly didn't have much crime.

Reacher / int_dc579c91	comment	Contrived Coincidence: The fact that Reacher finds himself in Margrave on the morning after his brother Joe is killed in the town. Finlay brings it up out at one point, but it is never addressed. Jack himself admits he stopped by the town on a whim, out of hearing a blues song on the radio and remembering his brother Joe mentioning a legendary musician named Blind Blake died there, wanting to check the place out. Given the fallout of Reacher discovering his brother's murder has on the villains' counterfeiting operation and that Reacher himself muses on the unlikelihood of him ever finding this out through official channels for a long time until the case had gone cold, given his current occupation, it's implied to be a case of Joe's spirit guiding Jack to help settle his unfinished business in the town.

Reacher / int_dea1fec3	comment	Season 1: The Margrave counterfeiting ring tries to pin Joe's murder on a seemingly random outsider who just showed up in town. Unfortunately for them, not only is said outsider (Reacher) a highly trained and effective criminal investigator, his being arrested leads to him learning that his brother was murdered and the circumstances of the murder don't add up, which leads to a Roaring Rampage of Revenge, with nearly everyone in the counterfeiting operation being killed and the operation dismantled. Reacher even flat-out says at one point that if the cops hadn't arrested him, he likely wouldn't have found out Joe was dead for years, as they had grown apart.

Reacher / int_df5d7746	comment	Artistic License â€“ Prison: Two instances; one justified, one not. In the pilot episode, Jack and another man are in prison and were placed into a cell block with convicted criminals. They should have been placed into a holding area, since they have not been convicted of any crime. This part is justified; a crooked guard dropped them there on purpose, and the non-crooked staff are appropriately horrified that such a mistake would have been allowed (partially because of how it reflects on them). The fact that it happens in the dead of night makes it more likely the crooked guard could sneak them in without others questioning it. While in the general population, Jack beats the crap out of one convict who entered his cell looking to rape Hubble. One of the convict's gang is wearing sunglasses, which Jack makes him give up. The only eyewear prisoners are allowed to wear are prison-issued corrective glasses. Sunglasses are not allowed for two reasons: they prevent guards from being able to tell where a prisoner is actually looking, and the lenses and frames can be crafted into weapons.

Reacher / int_e313b4e7	comment	Manchild: As tough and intelligent as he is, it's also clear that Reacher isn't very mature. He has a bad habit of acting on impulse and doing whatever fits his "tough guy" persona even if it just makes things worse for him and has difficulty processing and showing emotions, has a disrespect for rules and authority that often comes across as just being contrarian for it's own sake, can be brash and insensitive, makes assumptions about people he dislikes, is quick to use violence as a first and only resort and his lifestyle is as much about his disinterest in obligation as it is rugged independence. This becomes a lot more notable in the second season when he's with his old unit who are also very smart and tough but also have stable lives and impressive careers and he works with Russo who is constantly annoyed with his macho attitude and tendency to go off half cocked because he wants to play cowboy and seems more interested in that than actually discovering the truth.

They wonder how the Venezuelans were able to find them so quickly, and reason that it was due to Stevenson being The Mole inside the police department. Later on, after Roscoe takes over watching Charlie Hubble and her kids from Picard, they are again tracked down by the Venezuelans in short order. The reveal of Picard working for Kliner's forces shows that this was due to him tipping the bad guys off on where to find Reacher and his associates.

All of this without saying a single word.

Reacher / int_eb8f64a6	comment	No Good Deed Goes Unpunished: A very unfortunate case with the honest cop who helps Reacher and Neagley talk to his C.I. to investigate a lead on the counterfeit ring. The bad guys found his partner off-screen and threatened him and his family, so he shoots the honest cop in the head and is about to pull over to kill Reacher and Neagley as instructed, but Reacher manages to kick through the police car's grate and they're driven into the river. The cop knows that he's a dead man for failing to kill them and chooses to stay in the car and drown rather than let the killers find him. Joe's secretary, Molly, also becomes a casualty when she offers them the files he was working on before he was murdered. She dies in Reacher's arms and he takes it very personally, especially when he finds out that KJ is the one who killed both her and Joe. Russo recounts how his father, an honest cop in the NYPD, was killed for refusing to go on the take with the other bent officers. Russo himself would then follow a similar fate, being killed while protecting a young girl from the armed thugs, in the same episode he confronted his captain over his own corruption.

Reacher / int_ec0ce986	type	Spotting the Thread
Reacher / int_ec0ce986	comment	Spotting the Thread: Reacher is arrested under suspicion of murder, and Finlay reads off a brief description of the incident to him. Among the details are that the killer used subsonic rounds from a silenced pistol and didn't leave his brass behind, the body was beaten heavily after being shot dead, and the body was hidden under some cardboard boxes but was discovered a few hours later. From this information, Reacher points out that three different people must have been involved in the killing, as the details showcase someone hyper-competent (the kill was very precise and well thought out), someone psychotic (assaulting the body after death), and someone semi-competent (savvy enough to realize the need to hide the body, but foolish enough to do a bad job of it). Therefore, Reacher is almost certainly not the murderer, or at the very least there are two other people involved still running around free. Reacher notes that Kliner Sr is bringing in a lot of animal feed, and the operation to unload it is unusually efficient. Finlay and Roscoe write it off as Kliner Sr owning a large cattle farm and that's just what people in Georgia do, but Reacher points out that Kliner's farm isn't that large with only 116 cows, which would put it just under the limit where federal regulators would come in to inspect the operation. Reacher's instincts turn out to be correct, as the animal feed contains a specific ingredient necessary for the counterfeiting process, meaning the cattle were just a cover for the mass purchase of raw materials. Joe's punchlist specifies that "Joblings' Garage" is an important location, but the investigation turns up nothing at Pete Jobling's house. Late in the investigation, Reacher remembers that Pete's wife never took his last name, but Joe clearly wrote the apostrophe after "Joblings", meaning the important location is a house where there are two Joblings, meaning Pete's parents. Sure enough, a box filled with counterfeit bills is hidden in their garage.

Reacher / int_f6b30338	type	Murder Is the Best Solution
Reacher / int_f6b30338	comment	The villains in the first season have relatively recently taken to regularly using extreme violence in order to remove enemies and make an example of those who oppose them. This draws heavy attention to them, makes them more enemies than they can chew off (including Reacher himself due to his brother now being a murder victim) and makes it increasingly obvious who is/was involved in their conspiracy (and that such a conspiracy exists in the first place). Furthermore, whereas before they were simply being investigated, it's now increasingly acceptable to deal with them via violence as well, placing even their own lives in danger. It turns out this is due to KJ Kliner performing a de facto (and later actual) coup on his father, who KJ mocks for preferring more quiet criminal methods. As it turns out, having an actual psychopath run such an operation does not end well. In less than a year of their takeover, KJ and Dawson had to burn through all of the resources KJ's father spent decades building to fight off the numerous foes and public infamy the Margrave operation had drawn, and in the end it still collapsed.

Reacher / int_f9f2c33	comment	Running Gag: Reacher being really bothered by the Kliner farm having too much feed for the number of cows in the pastures, to the point where several other characters express frustration with his focusing on it. He's of course completely correct — they're using the feed as part of the counterfeit ring when bleaching the printed bills, to clean up any chemical spills and thus keeping the EPA from coming to town. The farm has 116 cows, just shy of the 120 that would subject it to state inspections, so the operation keeps it below that number and successfully covers up where the bills are processed. Reacher really just wants one damn slice of peach pie — though, note, it should be referred to as cobbler— and in the season 1 finale, he finally gets it. But in typical form, his only comment is, "I've had better." Barely an episode goes by without someone commenting on Reacher's hugeness, usually in an amusing fashion.
