Ep 9. Mac-Liv-Moore

Mac-Liv-Moore is the ninth episode of iZombie season 4. In this episode, Liv Moore - who is not only a medical examiner but also a zombie - consumes the brain of a wealthy and influential CEO, who was also a gamer. He was killed in an accident while driving his self-driving car, which prompts Liv to conduct an investigation. Thanks to the CEO's wealth and connections, her investigation leads Liv to the company responsible for building and programming self-driving cars in Seattle.

As Liv focuses on her case, Major and Clive investigate the murder of a limousine driver who was killed in the same incident that killed the CEO. During their investigation, they discover that the limo driver was actually a human smuggler who was trafficking women across the Canadian border. The case takes a personal turn when Clive realizes that the limo driver was the father of his girlfriend's son.

While Liv is conducting her investigation, she runs into someone from her past – Eva Moore – who was also turned into a zombie after the same boat party. Eva already knew about Liv's zombie identity but was trying to keep it from their mutual friend. Meanwhile, Blaine's father, Angus, continues his quest to become the zombie messiah and rallies the zombies together to pursue his dream.

The episode takes on an edge-of-the-seat vibe as Liv tries to unravel the mystery behind the self-driving car program. As she is consuming the brain of the CEO, she gains access to his gaming skills, which proves to be helpful as he was the founder of an online gaming company called Brainz. She takes advantage of her newfound skills to hack into the company's network to gather evidence and investigate the death of the CEO.

In this episode, there's drama, thrill, and a whole host of emotions. Fans of the show receive a glimpse of Liv's past, as her former best friend from high school, Eva, makes an appearance. The episode also marks the second time that Liv teams up with Levon, the documentary filmmaker who has been tailing Liv and her crew around town.

The plot twist of the episode comes to light when Liv discovers that the car accident was not merely an accident. Instead, it was a ploy to kill the CEO and his self-driving car program, by injecting malicious code into the car software. The episode also reveals that the "accident" was orchestrated by someone within the company who was looking to monopolize the industry.

Overall, Mac-Liv-Moore is a must-watch for iZombie fans, especially for those who love thrillers and investigative dramas. The episode successfully pulls the audience in with its captivating and well-thought-out plot, which leaves viewers guessing until the very end. The superb storytelling, engaging performances, and thrilling suspense make this episode one of the best in the entire season.
