The 1st episode ended with oj and ac escaping onto the freeway in the infamous white bronco(but still not found by the cops) so episode 2 picks up where it left off. The news is breaking that oj is a fugitive on the loose. A couple in a vw micro bus spot a white bronco that is tailgating them aggressively when the passenger in the vw notices it's a.c. that's driving.
They stop at a freeway side phone(remember those?) to call the cops about the oj sighting which quickly leads to the police shutting down the freeway and oj stopping at some traffic.
It's obvious the freeway scene was filmed on a 1 mile or so street of freeway as the overpasses and signs repeat themselves and it's noticeable if you pay attention. The studio only shut down one direction(hah) of the freeway which is jarring. In the right lanes you have oj and 90's cars but headed in the opposite direction are modern cars.
Yes they are clear as day, I saw a prius, a 2012 camry, a 1998 f-150, a mid 00's dodge ram, a early 00's chevy astrovan and a 2010's ford e-150 van. You would think the studio would edit out the modern cars but it is a over sight that is hard to ignore.
We all know how it ends but what's new is how close oj came to killing himself inside the bronco. He had the gun in his mouth a couple of times. Also it's surprising to find out that it was ac's bronco and not oj's. The episode ends with oj being handcuffed and put into a cop car.
One final note, the kardashian kids make an appearance, yes kim kardashian is famous because of oj. The whole scene is incredibly ironic in 2016. The kardashian kids are watching their dad(Robert Kardashian) give a press conference with robert shapiro.
What's almost like a joke is that one of the reports asks robert who he is and how his last name is pronounced and spelled which the kardashian kids spell it out for us and chant it too. The irony is great because that last name is everywhere.
It was a great captivating episode(just like the real bronco chase) and john travolta should win an award for his portrayal of mr shapiro.
