Crime shows are often about catching the criminals. And that makes sense - audiences want to tune in to watch the good guys take down the bad guys. But what if it was flipped? Now you’re rooting for the criminals to get away with it, and go on with their lives, committing whatever crime they please next. In this episode, we learn the backstories of a couple of these shows, Spotless and Sneaky Pete.
Spotless (1:58) - Though he may not be a shining member of society, Jean typically follows the rules and goes by the book. Especially during his day job as a crime scene cleaner where attention to detail and legality are both large necessity. But when his neer-do-well brother shows up with a dead body asking for help, Jean can’t turn him down. And when things go wrong, Jean must now do some “dirty” cleaning work or else he’ll be turned in and framed.
Sneaky Pete (39:06) - Freshly out of Prison, confidence man, Marius, is being hunted by a man he tricked from his past. To hide out, he steals the identity and life of his old prison cellmate, Pete. But now it seems he’s gotten caught up in a not-much-better position as he finds himself a part of the family business of bail bonds, tracking down criminals not unlike himself.
