Warning: Full spoilers for the episode below.
Lethal Weapon truly proved this week that its best qualities, its grace, rested within its characters and not its action. Sure, there were a few tense moments in "There Goes the Neighborhood" -- a shootout in Sherman Oaks, a tussle with a naked "Black Hulk," and the standoff at the end between Murtaugh and Marcus -- but overall the series is starting to ease up on the adrenaline and play into the strong chemistry between the two leads.
I don't know how many more rifts "Sand Hobo" Riggs and "Bald is Beautiful" Murtaugh can endure, or concoct outside of the death wish dynamic, but the blowout they had in this episode featured their most serious moment to date. Murtaugh, coming from a place of panic over what could have happened to RJ, straight up punched Riggs in the mouth and said some very hurtful things. It was also interesting to watch Murtaugh recognize exactly the type of mortal danger RJ faced being pulled over as a black teenager so this confrontation worked on several tense levels.
