Harris co-wrote with Lang again, and again there's a scene that doesn't work, or rather a new plot thread, with Danny on the run from the Mob and pretending to be in disguise as a spy.  It's basically an excuse to put Wass in funny costumes but it makes no sense.  He should genuinely be hiding out, not, as we'll continue to see, showing up often.  Other than that, the episode, more Campbell-focused than usual, is fine.  Burt and Danny bond over Danny being unable to kill Burt, and Danny finally acknowledges that Jodie is gay.  Jessica meets Chuck and Bob and seems delighted with them.  Corinne is again absent.
