Spoiler : who called the ?????


When the cop caught up to the father in the final act, do you think the informer was the guy he let go before that and promised he wouldn't tell anyone and that the father could blackmail him if he did so.

The only other survivor was the wife of one of the brothers in case she didn't want to get in trouble over her husband's death.

It's important to remember that it wasn't that someone told the police about Christian. Someone rather told Derek, or Derek figured it out somehow, and so Derek had the dirty cop feign a legitimate traffic stop so that they could abduct/torture/kill Christian before he came after Derek.

The biggest leap in all of it, or the biggest plot hole, is the cop tracking Christian down on a deserted highway in the middle of the night, apparently far from where he had been and where he was going.

They tracked Finn's cell phone, which Christian had. Derek mentioned he should have gotten rid of it when they caught him.

But it wasn't actually the police who stopped him. It was a policeman, yes, but not in his official capacity.
