Perry Mason has been a literary and TV icon for the last century, but his prestige makeover on HBO in 2020 was a new look for the character, bringing with it a new backstory, tone, and format. With handsome period production and a season-long mystery, not to mention an overabundance of HBO’s trademark adults-only grit, the first season was a compelling and well-acted mystery and we’re back for more in the anticipated sophomore outing.
Here’s what happened in Perry Mason Season 2 Episode 3:
- Perry managed to finesse protective custody for the Gallardo brothers after they found glass in their food, but the issue wasn’t treated as being remotely serious by the case judge, which hardly bodes well for the outcome.
- Trying to be a cool dad, Perry allowed his son to swerve his homework and see King Kong instead, leading to a sleepless night and more homework.
- We saw a nastier side of Lydell McCutcheon when he maimed a man with the wheel of an oil derrick.
- The number planted in Brooks’s wallet led to a sanatorium where we met Noreen Lawson, one of Brooks’s old flings who is now catatonic, presumably because of him.
- Paul managed to prove that the Gallardo brothers were in possession of the murder weapon, which wasn’t the outcome he was necessarily looking for.
