Now it should come as no surprise, but on my first watch, this episode just didn’t click for me. He flees, and the story ends just as it began. It’s a man who looks exactly like the murderer, watching from an apartment across the street. The witness looks up and sees someone watching her. There’s a struggle, and the murderer is shot dead. Eventually, the witness returns to her apartment, where the murderer corners her. After getting the gun, she runs into the murderer, and their cat and mouse game continues.

With no help from the authorities, the witness runs to a man named Victor for help, implied to be a gangster and her boss.Īfter a frankly bizarre dance scene, the witness gets a gun from Victor. The witness flees the scene with the murderer in hot pursuit, claiming all the while he just wants to talk. Unbeknownst to her, the murderer realizes the witness looks exactly like his victim. The witness notices that the murderer sees her. It follows a nameless woman who witnesses a murder in an apartment across the street from her window. The Witness is based not on a previous short story, but an original script by Alberto Mielgo. What’s truly disappointing about The Witness is that it has promise. Now, it’s time to cover what I consider to be the first true miss of the show, The Witness. So far, we’ve covered the bland but entertaining Sonnie’s Edge, and the laid back Three Robots.
