Starting with Endeavour Morse being a dropout at Oxford, one of the themes of the series focuses on debunking the mystique of the arcane and hypocritical system and culture at this legendary institution. The barbaric debauchery of self-proclaimed educated elite depicted in this episode no doubt defies comprehension, and the payback was equally unimaginably ghastly. Charlotte Hope certainly stole the show. The protracted duel between Eve and Endeavour had enough poignancy and wattage to outshine the rest of this remarkable episode.
