Rosa's ~~lack of time to write these~~ motivation to really set up an elaborate scenario for everybody this week was waning significantly, especially when she knew for a fact that least two of her students were out traipsing around Italy together (she was still waiting to find out if they'd be earning that extra credit for class by getting wrapped up in some kind of ridiculous and absurd Italian murder mystery), which was a lot of words to say that this week was definitely another movie week.

But she was going to be all teacherly about it (sort of) and try to imbed an important lesson into it.

That lesson?

"Sometimes," Rosa informed them. "....no, scratch that, most of the time, criminals are actually really dumb and stupid, otherwise they wouldn't be criminals, right? I mean, all the good ones get a reputation because they're so good and that makes everyone think that there's femme fatales and criminal masterminds everywhere, but your average crime is centered around some really dumb shit. Next week, maybe we'll go over some examples, but this week, there's actually a movie that covers that same concept. Like before, try to see if you can figure it out before we get to the reveal near the end, by trying to think of what would be the dumbest solution. Sometimes, it really is the stupidest thing that pulls it all together."

Like a dumb criminal.

Steve McGarrett

Arden Finch

Well, not a lecture, more of a set-up, but someone is just way too dedicated to repeated structure in her class posts, ugh.

Tech billionaire Miles Bron invites his friends for a getaway on his private Greek island. When someone turns up dead, Detective Benoit Blanc is put on the case.

"Oh, Danny and I watched this," Steve said. "It's so dumb! The criminal, not the movie."

Arden didn't know why it was hitting her so hard, but the way the one woman was treating the pandemic at the beginning of the movie just enraged her.

But, uh. Then she was distracted by Andi Brand and...hnngh.

She'll definitely share plenty of other dumb criminal stories with you if you ask...well, not nicely, if you ask nicely, she'll just not tell you out of resentment.
