Yeah, I had pretty much the same impressions. After all, who's going to "break" under faux interrogations? (Well, maybe with a few exceptions.) Agree with you that the "break" was really when they found the time gap in the phone calls and where it corresponded with the GPS location. They should have stuck with how this worked itself out.

Thoughts: The thieving duo have to plan on hiding the loot well and creating a long circuitous route with multiple decoys. They also have to hold up under the pressure of interrogation. The police have to piece the information together, but a good plan can thwart their efforts. Paul and Mary are intimidating as interrogators and they’re the ones that (editing made it appear) broke this case. This show looks interesting, but let’s hope success or failure will rest more with gumshoe work than breaking the thieving duo through 48 hours of pressured questioning.

I wrote a short recap found here.

It's scheduled to run six episodes and it's hard to say if it'll go beyond that. I don't think it has solid multi-season potential.

(eta) I'm curious about your ideas, as I've been thinking of a few ideas of my own. One good place (among several I've been pondering) is to hide the case is above an elevator if you can get the vent door open. The other key thing, I think, is to do some footwork and stash the case as far off of the car's GPS track as possible. Have one guy drive to keep the GPS moving, while the other guy hops out at a light and does the stashing on foot, and then meet up again half an hour later.
