Re: Spoilers on future episodes
Longtime lurker who joined to through in this tad bit of info.
I looked up spoilers for "Run Silent, Run Deep" and found it was actually a title of a WWII movie. However, when I read the review, it put me in mind of Mac, Danny and the Tanglewood boys ...
"'Wartime clash of the titans...Gable and Lancaster' He's like a Captain Ahab, fervently determined to sink the Japanese destroyer that took the lives of his former crew members a year earlier, just as Ahab ran after the whale. His motives are questioned by the man originally selected to be Captain, his second in command Burt Lancaster ... It's the clash of wills between these strong personalities that gives the film its punch and keeps the situation tense and taut until the final battle"
and
"The clash between the two men is obvious, but they put their personal differences behind them, and head for a long lasting combat mission, which against orders, will include Gable's return visit to the forbidden area 7 of the Bunko Straits."
This is what the Futon Critic said about the actual episode
"After being unable to jail the leader of the Tanglewood Boys a year before, Mac makes it his mission to succeed this time, but he's shocked when the evidence puts Danny at the crime scene instead. "
Similarities?
Sorry it is such a long post ...
