David accompanies Nate to recover Lisa's body, but Nate clashes with Lisa's family over her funeral wishes.

    By this stage a few of the main characters had started to become a little unlikeable at times, but the standard of the writing and quality of the cast never really declined and so this fourth season continued to be a dark, yet intriguing, watch.    … Full Review »
