Mrs. S. seems to be a former anarchist or maybe former IRA. So she might have stumbled across the start of the conspiracy while doing her "direct actions," or she was there from the start and became a radical after the project went all, well, Brave New World. There was a guy in that picture holding a rifle, after all.

I remember a road sign in kph from earlier in the season.

I thought the butt-clenching thing with Alison was just my fervid imagination… but still, I should probably stop staring.

I remain unconvinced. I didn't even mention why he would actively resist torture if all he had to admit was a long-distance affair.

I still think Donnie's the spy because there's no reason to think the monitors need to watch their clones 24/7 (see: BDP and Beth (and if they don't give a better explanation why Beth topped herself before the season's over I'll be disappointed.))

Nope, just a non sequitur… 

I don't think she's a mole anymore but to be fair her (and Birkhoff's) life have been in peril _a lot_ this season, and since we know they probably aren't going to kill off Birkhoff they used her to raise the stakes for him. Also she looks so nice with her hair down…reason enough to keep her around imo.

I think Nikita wanted to confirm that Michael really was infected first. I mean it's not like she hasn't foiled Amanda's shit in the past. Hubris, imo.

I'll be sad to see this show go (Shane Black has grown on me too) but I'm actually pretty happy it is getting cancelled in this particular fashion. The writers know how to burn plot in their allotted time (the "President" killing herself happened around half-way through) and they have a half-year to make these last

You're welcome. I salute your bravery in putting yourself before the intertubez and your extensive knowledge of Buffy season-arcs. Equally.

Creed has a beautiful voice.

Angel had a top-tier finale, and better "smash to black" than The Sopranos, imo.

Poor, poor Colonel Carter. Naomi finally stops being a one-note, one-dimensional character like five minutes before she dies. Disappointing and unsurprising. I'm also really gonna miss Abbadon's "suit." Oh well.

Kevin had a line something like: "it took me six months and one dead mom to translate the demon tablet."

So after the very first episode I compared this show to Smallville. I'm sorry.

As an avid PoI fan I'm not too worried about that show for the simple fact that it's good enough and popular enough for the ancients to chase it around the calendar. As a recent Elementary convert I'd rather they put it between the NCISesses… I mean the show does have moments of humor but it's not "comedy night" funny.

I think Felix is the loyal sibling (who-happens-to-be-gay) trope. His gayness is secondary to his wit, the aforementioned loyalty, and willingness to "party" (underground clubs and recreational drug use). All that said: yes, more Felix.

I really hope this is a turning point for the series. The wider world outside the town has felt like a DM's random encounter chart till now. Weddle and Thompson (credited writers of some of the best episodes of BSG and this particular episode) joining the room, if they are actually joining the room, can't hurt.

I thought it was logical. Earth Republic is already trying to "annex" Defiance by subterfuge and murder, right? What would happen if Defiance took one of their ambassadors (who presumably have some diplomatic privilege and definitely know all sorts of dirty secrets) prisoner and refused to give them back? Even in our

My dream: Beckett takes the job as a superspy. "I love you, Rick, but I need to see where this takes me…", or something. Castle, Ryan, and Esposito solve cases for a half-season (and the show has never been funnier) until Beckett comes back to New York for some reason. Terrorism!
