YES!!!!! And if he's found out in a scandal that puts his identity in play for the media that puts the entire team in danger. What the FUCK is he thinking???? If Harold knew this was going on, he would be apoplectic.

John and Iris - no, no, no, no, no, no, NO. It's a relationship built on a false sense of intimacy created in the patient-therapist dynamic. He has a hero complex and she's in hero worship mode given that he's saved her life once and then she was on hand to watch him save the other therapist guy. This isn't the…

Did anyone else get the feeling that the daughter-in-law Stacey was playing Mike a little when, after Mike said she should spend the money, she said "Of course, this is only going to be a drop in the bucket"? I thought she was playing to Mike's guilt to get more money. I think she loves/has great affection for Mike…

Violet Moon sounds beautiful. It evokes a gorgeous image.

Well, their world is very chaotic and messy right now.

For me, the biggest error about Allegiance was Root giving Bear commands in English.

Just the like Red Wings, they sucked.

I'd settle for Greer's.

Ahhhh!!! Gotta get Bear to babysit.

I don't know - the NSA seems to be doing that pretty well.

When John said that he was one of the misfits, I loved the little look of glee from Fusco. Honest to God, he's my favorite character.

Just as The Machine knew to intervene with Harold's plan with Alicia Corwin, it knew exactly what it was doing by giving TM the doc's number. TM would be forced to deal with each other and their altered circumstances and bring them back into focus for what is coming. Shaw may be right - "She" is warm and fuzzy.

John's grief over Jessica has always been visceral to his persona. Not only because he felt guilty about not getting there in time but for being so stupid all those years before. That is monumental loss. Last night, I wish that they'd tied Finch's loss of Grace more into his need for vengeance. Losing Nathan gave…

Remember, last season had the dreadful Provenance with the equally bad Allegiance being among the last five. We survived and the show thrived anyway.

This is nit-picky but why did Finch have a busted arm in the doc's office? His leg injury could've been spun to make it seem more immediate. That was weird.

If there is a possible-spoiler tag, then someone like me can skip over it. Everyone else can go to town. Please. :)

The reason that I don't think Reese murdered Peter is because Peter's number never came up.

I understand but if someone wants to seek out that information outside of these threads, then that is on them. (I did say please :) )

Somewhat of a big hole last night was why didn't Iris mention the fact that John was there to save the doc from the car bomb? Or is all that hero stuff just passe now?

In an episode devoid of much humor, I did laugh out loud when Fusco covered for John by turning to Iris to say "Hey, doc - I keep having this dream". LOLOLOLOL
