Flames of Love - S5-E8

Plot hole: The towel used for the trick is spotless, as Dwayne says, and the killer banked on it to remain that way, but the victim bled profusely all over the floor, same floor it was used to drag the victim across of.

Flames of Love - S5-E8

Plot hole: The shower room door has a lock, that as shown in the denouement the killer never closed - making it fairly obvious that the victim did not lock herself inside the room to kill herself. Another minor but still significant problem with the stratagem used; the killer shot the girl in the chest; even if they didn't do any gunshot residual test on her hand, the trajectory of the bullet still would have proven the impossibility of a suicide.

Episode #1.5 - S1-E5

Plot hole: Leon Hamilton is the most hated man in Sainte Marie, with over 900 people on the island conned by him. Yet exactly one person in the whole island knows how he looks like, every newspaper and website never ever published a picture of him even during the very public trial when they were trying to get their thousands of dollars back nor publish an archive picture after his death.

Quotes

Man Overboard: Part 2 - S6-E6

DI Jack Mooney: My grandfather told me a story once, about these two wolves fighting inside all of us. And one of them is anger, envy, self-pity, regret. The other one is love, truth, faith, hope, that sort of thing.
And I asked him "which one of the wolves would win?" And do you know what he said?
"The one you feed." (00:18:15)
