In Episode 7, which airs on her Peacock on February 16, she brings her own skills into her fast-paced car racing world. Entitled The Future of Sport, the episode sees veteran driver Kyle Owens (Tim Blake his Nelson) clash with young up-and-comer Davis McDowell (Charles Melton) with explosive results.
‘Poker Face’ Review: Rian Johnson and Natasha Lyonne Deliver Amazing Murder Mystery Mayhem
In Peacock’s exclusive clip, Davis uses an arcade game to teach Charlie about car racing. She knows the race isn’t real, but Charlie treats it too safely.At one point, Davis is straight up stepping on the gas for her. “You have to trust the car,” he tells her. “Do you trust the car?”
She didn’t and lost the race in spectacular fashion. I hope she trusts her own blue Plymouth her Barracuda more than her car in her video game. Otherwise, there is no escape from her casino henchman Cliff Her Legrand (Benjamin Bratt).
Although she lost the (fake) race, Charlie still seems to be having a good time. Will Davis be the murderer in this episode, or the victim of murder? Will Charlie solve another crime, or will he crash and catch fire? Will it be? We have to wait until Thursday.
