The Inside Man Comments - Ding & Ester

I was a bit confused on first viewing but a second viewing and I understood more of the action with the brothel and the other elements.  The flashback portion is really nice.  You provide a good variety of shots and the story is visually interesting.  The story problem I have is that this secret, "inside man," is not being very careful about who might be learning that he is actually a police man.  You need the searching to tell the joke but there must be a more subtle way to do it to keep the core premise of the story alive.  The core premise appears to be that this is an undercover cop working in a criminal organization.
