Missing You
Warning: This article contains MAJOR SPOILERS for Netflix’s Missing You!
Based onMissing Yous excellent castand interesting premise, viewers engaged with the show expecting a decent mystery story.
However, the Netflix miniseries fails by pushing it too far.
For the story to make sense, the audience must buy into contradictory plot details and nonsensical character decisions.
He proceeds to show the exact same message exchange as Kat had in episode 1.

It simply moved the plot forward.
In the mystery show, Titus has eight people on his farm that he kidnapped.
Titus wasnt going after the most marginalized communities.
He seems to be going after affluent people, many of whom had families that wouldve reported them missing.
At least two victims were from the same area.
If more came from Kats city, that would offer an even bigger trail.
It seems outrageous that the police wouldnt have clocked the pattern sooner.
Unfortunately, the Clint part of the storyline feels like a headscratcher.
Ultimately, this issue could be rooted in the source material.
The book on which the Netflix series is based came out in 2014.
This timeframe makes much more sense when looking at the attitudes around LGBTQ+ people than in a modern setting.
However, nobody else seems to be aware of what really happened.
This doesnt make sense, though.
DCI Ellis Stagger wasnt the person in charge of the murder investigation.
Additionally, they did enough investigation to find other fingerprints on the murder weapon.
With these things in mind, they should have found trace DNA from Aqua and Josh on Clints body.
If they did, more people would need to be involved in the coverup.
This isnt an indictment of Kats mother because she had a good reason to ignore her husbands male lover.
She explains that it was easier for her to look the other way.
Parker says hes been waiting for someone to come knocking when Kat arrives at his apartment.
Its perplexing that they would just completely ignore Clints long-term boyfriend during the investigation and aftermath.
However, this decision is a bit of a headscratcher.
He knows that Kat might be suspecting him of a crime.
Firefighters look for signs of arson.
Consequently, Titus burning down the farm surely would have brought more attention to him, not less.
Moreover, the farmhands are shown disposing of the bodies in an incinerator.
So, his choice to burn the farm wouldve served as a catalyst for him getting caught.
He also doesnt look into the identity of the child who registered the account.
Stacey brags about the fact that shes the best PI, discovering any information on anyone.
Kat has access to all the police resources as a lead detective.
Realistically, this whole show could have ended before it even began.
