"Poor Ronnie Devereux. The young man from the India Office is scarcely cold in his grave before the story moves on, shifting into investigative overdrive. No sooner has Jimmy accompanied Bundle to a memorial than they're cooking up the next steps in their quest to learn who killed Gerry and Ronnie and how those deaths may (or may not!) be connected to Seven Dials. It seems more likely than not that there's a significant connection between the two men and the mysterious phrase."
"Bundle can't spare more than a light eye roll at this revelation, because she's got other things to do, all fitting under the umbrella of "don't underestimate Bundle." Don't worry, nobody will heed this reasonable warning, and it works out great for us viewers, as she only becomes more doggedly intrepid with every admonishment about her safety and exclamation of surprise about her powers of perception."
"From her moderate-speed car chase after the mysterious man who she tried to catch up to following Gerry's inquest to her skillful maneuvering of Bill into taking her to the Seven Dials Club and finessing George Lomax into providing an invitation to the top-secret summit about Dr. Matip's steel-strengthening formula, no situation or person is a match for Bundle's moxie. We know the mysterious man as Superintendent Battle of Scotland Yard, and it's fun to see Martin Freeman play"
Jimmy and Bundle pursue the linked deaths of Gerry and Ronnie while investigating a possible connection to Seven Dials. Jimmy arranges a meeting with Gerry's sister Loraine to combine information. Bundle dismisses warnings and grows more determined, using a car chase to pursue a mysterious man and persuading Bill to take her to the Seven Dials Club. She secures an invitation from George Lomax to a secret summit about Dr. Matip's steel-strengthening formula. A mysterious figure is revealed as Superintendent Battle of Scotland Yard, and Bundle's bold resourcefulness drives the investigation forward.
