After her friend is found dead, Charlie uncovers a plot where the owner's son ordered her murder to protect a powerful client.
In Kenosha, Wisconsin, Ruby Ruin (Chloë Sevigny), vocalist of the early-'90s heavy metal band Doxxxology, recruits Gavin (Nicholas Cirillo) as a temporary drummer for a summer tour.
She begins to bond with Gavin, noticing that he never wears shoes, has a camera pointed at his kick drum and writes lyrics spontaneously based on his surroundings.
While the band records Gavin's song the next day, Charlie meets a woman (Emily Yoshida) who hosts a true crime podcast called Murder Girl.
While cleaning her car ahead of a concert in Milwaukee, Charlie realizes that the lyrics to "Sucker Punch" correspond to advertising slogans on items in Gavin's pockets.
Charlie also overhears Al, who has a habit of making up lyrics off the top of his head, singing about killing Gavin, which Ruby dismisses.
Finally, Charlie uses Gavin's footwork camera to confirm that the band wore thick-soled Doc Martens during the performance to avoid electrocution.
However, a recording executive reveals that the rhythm track to "Sucker Punch", which the band failed to modify from Gavin's original draft, is stolen from the theme song for the sitcom Benson, resulting in a severe copyright infringement case.
Johnson stated that the series would delve into "the type of fun, character driven, case-of-the-week mystery goodness I grew up watching.
"[5] Benjamin Bratt also joined the series in the recurring role of Cliff, whose character chases Charlie after she ran away from the casino in the previous episode.
Club gave the episode an "A−" grade and wrote, "How often can Charlie find herself in a situation where a stranger she meets ends up six feet into the ground?
"[11] Alan Sepinwall wrote, "It's also the one of these four that most effectively uses the Knives Out/Glass Onion rewind gimmick, as seeing Charlie hanging out with the doomed drummer adds even more value to her desire to catch his killers than the glimpses of her friendship with Natalie do in 'Dead Man's Hand'.
