I understand the desire to you want to fit in these times that we live in, but the whole race-baiting part of the story had nothing in it to propel it forward. It was just used in a way that really served no purpose other than to make things awkward and uncomfortable. The show has potential, but it seems like it's being held back by this needless race fodder. I truly hope that this show raises its self above this in future episodes. The rest of the storyline is pretty good.
