I think the fact that David is heterosexual is somehow the biggest plot twist in this entire series because what do you mean that man married, had sex, and raised a child with a *woman*???

He becomes the head of police… just to treat himself as a different character anyways.

I don’t know if Dave will ever solve this case, but if Dave does solve this case, you just know that he won’t get the recognition he rightly deserves, and I think that he is partially to blame because he doesn’t promote himself enough. If he doesn’t put himself out there, how will people recognize his genius?

I saw this post and I am like, "What the hell is this? Is this worth listening to?"
OMG, this breaks my brain. It is so funny and "poignant" at the same time. The irony is girder-level as the structure for it all.

The hardscrabble cussing thrown into the poignant prose and the hard boiled 'turning of the little circular thing on the gun' really make him a true old fashioned dick in classic noir fashion.
