Unfortunately for them, the victim just happens to be the son of Jimmy Baxter (Michael Stuhlbarg), the head of the most vicious crime family in the city.
“When there’s so much television around, there is a danger that you start to passively, even unconsciously, copy tropes. And you begin to think that that’s what’s right,” she says.
