| The rookie detective Sugar Pease just couldn't let the employees of Pinochle loose, even after all of these incidents which trounced the police to drop all of its cases. Instead of bringing Captain Young, having Sugar interrogate the Klondike Family's John Doe in exchange for safety and information, and there is a reason why Young chooses to stay away from this: his connection to Theodore, the head of Pinochle. Ban Klondike's gathering of a front for the mafia, and what's the meaning of power than the power of a X-Playing Card to exact between rivals. And this warning is just the start of the affair between families, and the reveal of the Kingdom of Fourland's distress of more Players showing up. This is Peace's breaking point to see the ugly in getting involved in this affair that she shouldn't be in, and count that as another warning from Finn as well. John Doe is dead, and the Klondike Family is ready to move forward, no matter the sacrifices. The dark, ominous episode reeling in its aftereffects. |

| Rookie detectives always have their phase of trying to uphold justice, and they say "curiosity killed the cat", which almost happened here. It was a close shave for Sugar, with her investigation into Pinochle's connection with the Klondike Family, but this time around, they let them off easy. That wasn't the case for John Doe though, who was sacrificed in front of a big crowd, and Ban Klondike is not to be messed with. This was in my opinion, the best episode so far, and sets the scene for a darker time ahead. No playing around anymore. |
| Jesus Christ bro that is an AWFUL way to go out bro neck just burst from being twisted so much that’s horrible. Police was supposed to be protecting him after all that info he gave that’s messed up. You’d think sugar would learn her lesson to not sneak around anymore with this klondike family but she clearly didn’t lmao. You got a dude that can seemingly just use his mind to kill people and a telekinesis user, pinochle definitely at a disadvantage I guess young didn’t wanna get involved in the interrogation since he’s old friends with Ban Klondike which is why he sent sugar in. Pretty crazy episode which definitely sets up a much darker shift. |
 |
| Intense episode with some awesome fights, ngl. RIP to John Doe though, also Sugar really wants to pry into everything and ended up getting almost killed by another player in the process. Now the show really begins between families, interesting to see where its gonna lead to. |
  |
| Extremely intense episode, the tone shift was crazy Interesting power dynamics between factions to come, hype! |
| I really like Raildex, Mushoku Tensei, Dragon Quest Dai, Sabikui Bisco, Re:Zero, and Monogatari! |
| Finally the plot is more interesting introducing the villains of the series. The faction, the powers yeah the episode was intense.. Good premises for probably a final all out battle at the end |
 |
| Great sense of suspense this episode, I was legit worried about Sugar. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Great episode! But I can't understand why the captain's subordinate, man with glasses, betrayed them!? He appeared at the party and participate in John Doe killing. Why he did this? Was a traitor from the beginning. I don't understand it. Marinate1016 said: I can't understand betrayal of the captain's subordinate.

| This episode actually held my interest pretty well compared to the past few weeks, it got pretty tense, especially with the black haired lady who could seemingly like control force to some extent? |
| yeah, this episode was considerably better than previous ones |
 |
| The stakes have been raised and now this show is pretty good again, after a couple episodes of being a lull imo as it took the time to introduce some of our supporting characters. Not much else to say other than Sugar X Finn (that scene where she's getting strangled and Finn is forced to point his gun at her was a good scene. Sure it ends in the un-interesting way of it just being a warning, but hey, even if you see her as a little annoying, you still don't want her to die, right?), the art-style is clean asf as always, and I still find the ED of them singing in the car kind of cringe. The best episode still so far by a long shot is the first one. I hope we can relive some of that energy before the show ends. |

| That annoying female detective, Sugar almost got killed if it wasn't for Finn when she was clearly sticking her nose where it didn't belong. A typical rookie mistake on her part. It seems that her boss Captain Young is playing both sides of the table in his conversations with Theodore and then later with Ban Klondike, but even Young is smart enough not to pry into the Klondike family's business. Its obvious that the Klondike family has ties with local law enforcement which is the main reason they found out that John Doe was going to talk and he was killed in a extremely brutal fashion. If I had to guess the lady that attacked Finn and Sugar has a very high level card like a King or Queen and she was only there to give a warring shot to Sugar. Of course Sugar is not going to let this go as she is determined to find the truth, but the only thing she can do right now is play the role of support like everyone else as the local law enforcement can't get involved in the war between The Klondike Family and High Card(Royal Family) because both forces are simply too powerful for them to handle. |
 |
| HAH! she's lucky her life was spared! she really needs to get a handle on that obsessive compulsive behavior of hers |
| "I'm sure I must've been annoying. But I didn't know how to stop" don't worry Sugar, keep being curious and finding out the truth about Pinochle and Klondike until the lady from before kills you for real, then you'll stop on your own ;) But the power that the Klondike Family members have is insane, it seems they have big and powerful controlling powers like what Ban Klondike did to John Doe and the lady did to Finn and Sugar. This would put Pinochle at a disadvantage because imagine if they were all fighting each other and the lady got Love-P in her hands.. or when Leo had used a lot of money for a big weapon but it turned to attack the Pinochle members themselves instead.. |
 |
| The motivation of the police woman (whatever her name is) is just....... wow..... so far she's the worst part of the show |
| Things are picking up and 2 families will be fighting for power. The new girl Sugar was being a bit too nosy and was given a warning to stay out of the families' fight. Speaking of nosy, I think Young may get into trouble too down the road as he may have info from both sides. |
| looks like it's finally getting serious a |
 |
| I guess the Klondike family influence in the city is too much to the point they’ll just execute someone in front of a crowd without retaliation. Detective girl almost got rekt. Good episode overall. |
| Best episode for the moment, it was really Good |

| So the main story is picking up steam. Nice! This episode's main character was against my expectations not Vijay, but rather Sugar, the rookie detective. She's very motivated, but that'll only lead to her death as of now. I hope she gets a bit stronger, maybe with a card of her own. Or by teaming up with Young, who seems to dislike the direction the Klondike family is taking. I found both of them to be interesting characters and look forward to see more of them. And Vijay of course, who'll hopefully get the spotlight next week. |
| This felt like a pretty slow episode, but it went by kinda quickly for me. We got to see the Klondike family in this episode and more of that detective from previous episodes. It was alright, but I am excited to see where this goes from here |

Mcsuper said: Exactly what I thinking! While I didn't enjoy it as much I'm definitely looking forward to what's coming up. We're done with introductions, and it's time for things to really kick offThis was in my opinion, the best episode so far, and sets the scene for a darker time ahead. No playing around anymore. |
|
| Ah, there's the mafia family I was expecting. No Vijay dedicated episode yet though we did get one where the stakes are set. The Players funnily enough are not here to play around. Sugar reminds me of Shimotsuki from Psycho-Pass 2, but not in an annoying way like that, rather in her pursue but in a well intentioned matter. Hopefully she's not as useless as the other one was. |

| What a horrible way to die... bruhh |
 |
| those pesky curious naive young cops are the first ones to usually bite the dust! no wonder she almost bite it! lucky for her the enemy who strangled her didn't finish the job and scared them...if it were a different card holder oh no who know what could happen... 4/5. |
 |
| bloody episode, the head was spinning!!! kekeke |
| dayum this episode really set up how dark this show can get- can you imagine if that lady made the MC shoot the detective like this would've definitely traumatized him...😟 |
 |
 I love that all the other officers just flat-out ignore her temper tantrum because same😂 She is so jarring. Why does Ban Klondike look like Nanami from Jujustu Kaisen🤨. She actually needs to get a life randomly arresting Finn some weirdo. Wait why r there two police officers at this event🤨 How corrupt is the police department? That execution was disgusting and painful. I am so happy that the female police officer has been scarred hopefully she minds her business from now on since she was getting on my nerves. OH MY DAYS PLEASE I BEG SOMEONE KILL THIS WOMAN SHE NEEDS TO GO. Damn, there are some really OP POWERS. |

| Damn they already got John Doe? Rip, my guy was promised protection only to be killed soon after lol. Family's looking cool though. |
| The most annoying character award goes to this police officer lol |
