Cop does a tease in a strip club to get information?


Late to the show just watched Ep 2 in Season 1. Female cop gets on a table and flaunts cleavage to get information. I'm not for PC at all but that is even too much for me!

I just saw that myself. Ultimately I just figured it was a fairly short scene, nothing too crazy, she just wanted to get their attention in a silly way. Suspension of disbelief, no harm no foul, move on from there. But it didn't make a lot of sense, either. Sort of a Northern Exposure/Coen Bros moment, was supposed to be funny, not to be taken seriously.

Yeah I do get it's a TV show normal rules don't apply etc.

I guess that I don't find her as attractive as they would like us to believe didn't help either.

It's also a small town out in rural Wyoming. The rules seem a little different out there.
Again, it just seemed like a little bit of fun to be had and not that important to the point of the show overall.

A friend mentioned Longmire to me a while ago, and I really like the look of it but haven't been able to binge the whole series yet. Obviously not ground breaking television but I like shows that highlight the outdoors, and the title character is tight-lipped enough that it keeps me guessing what he might say to his counterparts in unusual situations.

It was a rare thing to see her flaunting herself unless it was relevant, ie trying to land Longmire.

I like rural/cowboy type shows as well, I didn't mind this one although I wouldn't consider it amazing either. Lou Diamond Phillips was entertaining.

The scene was intended to be comedic, and she danced briefly for a noble purpose (to solve a murder)
