## Summary

In episode four of Apple TV’s *Nocturne*, detectives Jonah Lynn and Saga Bauer pursue the accomplice of serial killer Jurek Walter, despite their personal histories with his crimes. Their investigation makes progress, but also leaves them exposed: Jonah is knocked unconscious and implicated in planting evidence, while Saga deliberately gets herself transferred beside Walter.

Jonah finds a coded note in missing nurse Sally Gifford’s notebook instructing someone to “RELEASE MICHAEL”, and the team traces the message through nurse Karl to a dead drop. A drone’s noise disrupts the surveillance, allowing the accomplice to escape after attacking Jonah. The recap questions the investigation’s plausibility and Saga’s risky plan, while praising the performances of Zazie Beetz, Stephen Graham, Rory Culkin and Liev Schreiber.
