Matt Roush says...
“Stop calling me Headphones!” That’s telling her, Patience. The “her” being sarcastic new boss DI Frankie Monroe (Jessica Hynes), whose treatment of the gifted autistic police consultant (Ella Maisy Purvis) throughout the British crime drama’s second season has been patronizing at best. “You are not professional,” Patience huffs, speaking out for once. The blowup occurs while the team investigates a particularly tricky case involving the death of a botanist involved in pharmaceutical research. While Frankie considers making a peace offering to her sensitive subordinate, Patience’s colleague DS Jake Hunter (Nathan Welsh) invites her to join him on a speed-dating outing to mend her broken heart. (We’re still rooting for her to get back with the puppy-dog-eyed crime scene officer Elliot, played by Tom Lewis.)
