Incognito | [s6e7]
Airing in July 2022, this episode is a high-stakes turning point as the series barreled toward its finale. It is widely remembered for resolving a brutal kidnapping and deepening the psychological cracks in the Cody family.
The episode’s most visceral arc involves the kidnapping of Craig and Renn’s son, Nick, by a group of Nazi drug dealers led by Cole Lidden. Despite their recent feud, Craig and Deran reunite for a violent tactical rescue, culminating in Craig executing the kidnapper with a shotgun—a moment that highlights his transformation into a protective, if homicidal, father figure.
Critics and fans praised Ben Robson (Craig) and Shawn Hatosy (Pope) for their performances, noting that the episode successfully showcased the "humanity" of the Codys despite their upbringing. The use of Michael Kiwanuka's "Solid Ground" during the final scenes was highlighted as an evocative musical choice.
Pope attempts a semblance of a normal life by reuniting with Amy for a date. The encounter is "simultaneously cute and creepy," as Pope meticulously scouts the restaurant beforehand to ensure it's conducive to conversation. Analysis & Reception
