Well, the first order of business here is noting that we are going to be getting a story titled “Family Trees” — so what is the focus within that?

Below, you can see the full Good Cop / Bad Cop season 1 episode 5 synopsis with other insight now on what is to come:

When Lou (Leighton Meester) and Henry (Luke Cook) go undercover for a case involving a high-stakes I.P. theft, Lou is forced to confront a painful truth about her past. Clancy Brown also stars (#105). The episode was written by Phil Lloyd and directed by Anne Renton.

How is the show performing?

Well, it is really hard to gauge since The CW’s total live viewership is just a small piece of the puzzle; yet, the show did shed some of its audience after the pilot and if it wants to come back for more, it may need to find some sort of equilibrium before too long. We tend to think that one of the biggest honest struggles that it has right now is simply being in a place where it is a little bit harder for audiences to find it.
