More Detail:
“Will Big Tony Roll Over?” is THE GOOD COP’s fifth episode and carries audiences further into this bizarre world. A cellmate of Tony’s is going to be prosecuted, Tony must decide whether to testify against a guilty man or hold onto his beliefs about not snitching. When law enforcement offers him a cushy penthouse apartment as his safehouse, Tony decides to take his girlfriend (and later, new wife) on a little “vacation.” However, a plot to murder Tony before he can talk is underway.
With every episode Danza’s character seems to become more and more gross and unethical. It’s hard to imagine how this guy was ever a cop. Groban’s character seems even more goofy in this episode, which is funnier. However, viewers similarly will wonder how this awkward, sometimes oblivious character is the lead investigator in a major homicide squad. Serious worldview concerns here include Tony using the institution of marriage and law enforcement for his own personal benefit. However, in the end, he decides to do the right thing. Some sexual humor, alcohol and smoking make this episode unsuitable for children.
