""What we are dealing with now is a war," she tells Charlie. "It's expensive and a pain in the ass.""
The episode titled "Whack-a-Mole" explores a fresh twist in the familiar procedural formula of Poker Face, though it ultimately feels underwhelming. Set against the backdrop of escalating tensions between mob families, Charlie, under the pressure of Beatrix Hasp, is tasked with uncovering a potential traitor within the crew. The interaction between the characters, particularly the dynamic between Rhea Perlman's menacing Beatrix and Natasha Lyonne's Charlie, injects humor and tension, even if the execution of the episode's premise doesn't quite meet high expectations. Nonetheless, the series' strong writing and performances keep it engaging.
