Episode 3x15 comic preview:



"Point taken ..."

 

Well, can't wait for the new episode ...  

Saw this, and it was ok, standard ep. One big flaw at end, when the woman stepped into the water to get the guys gun all he had to do is grab her and or the gun!
With her in the water harold could not drop the cable.

I am getting frustrated at no root, and no mention of root, or the 2nd machine.
No mention of any odd behavior by the regular machine.
I like the serial eps more than the stand alone eps.

the promo pics etc display bigger here than on after lost. I think this site is actually better.

1) Oh come on, you nitpicker!     I didn't care about this "big flaw", because overall ep 2x15 again was a pretty nicely entertaining and also suspensful ep. Actually I think it's even more realistic, that the hired shooter gave up instead of risking his life. Even if he had tried to grab Sandra, there would have been quite some risk left. He also said "Please. I just work for the guy. I don't even know his name." So why die for him?? I would have much more issues, if he had rather died for some unknown bad guy. Imho it happens far too often in TV shows, that some low level criminals rather would die for the "big boss", when they get caught, what seems to be ridiculous, because they must know that their "boss" doesn't give a shit for them.

As I said, after those epic episodes around HR and then Control it's good to have two or three more or less standalone eps just to take some breath. PoI for me is fun to watch already because of the excellent cast. I just like to see them acting. And Melissa Sagemiller played that 911 operator Sandra in a very likable way. Good guest cast again!. Nice of Finch to meet her and to give her conclusion with Aron.
And we probably will hear again from the mysterious guy, who called Finch at the end of the episode.

2) Don't worry, Root will be back!

3) I think it is, because over there they use more space at the left and right side for other stuff like "Top posters" or "Latest topics", so there's a little less room left in the middle. But I may also have used a lower % number some times for the picture post...
The thing is, I'm afraid, that obviously nobody from over there is coming here as a regular poster ...  Somehow we are lost ... btw, where's been webruce?? I haven't heard from him the last weeks.

And Melissa Sagemiller played that 911 operator Sandra in a very likable way.....yeah she was likable.
and the closure at end was nice.
The guy who called threatened harold so yeah he should be back, but why would he want to mess with harold? and why would harold keep it a secret?

Personally I guess, the kidnapper is kind of a professional cleaner with quite some resources, who lost a "case" for the first time, so he's personally pissed and fears for his reputation. He just wants to get even with Harold, what may be a story arc for several eps. It might even be, that somehow Harold ran over that guy already in the past.

Edit: Could it be that this guy is the one from ep 2x07 "Critical", the former MI6 agent, who together with his team of ex-SAS operatives tried to assassin a CEO during secret surgery by threatening the surgeon's wife. He got away and also had a phone call with Reese/Finch, where he implied that he knew at least Reese from the past ...
