Here are the promo pics for ep 4x04:

standard show, but good, better than I thought from last weeks previews.

I wanted harold to tell elias the whole truth about the 2nd machine and what it can do, otherwise he is at risk.

I liked the one black guy who we thought was the boss wasnt, and the dumb soldier was actually the big boss. So he will be recurring.

"Standard" only? Well, you're hard to please, mate!
I for one loved it. It's so much fun to watch Team Machine in action, every single one of them!
Then there's Elias, cool to have him back more.
And as you said, the twist about Link and Mini, just perfect imho. It's good to see, that not only Team Machine can be the smart ones. Mini knew that Shaw let him escape and tracked him. He seems to be a tough oppenent.
For me PoI still is the best show on TV currently. And the best thing, the big story about the war between Samaritan and the Machine hasn't really started yet. But I guess we'll get some impressive scenes next episode considering that awesome preview with the "Terminator"-like shootout between Root and Samaritan's blonde operative. Really can't wait for next week!

well it was a standard show which is usually good !
But it mostly was about the # of the week, so that is "standard"

If they have more of samaratin or the machine, or the inner workings or anything not the # of the week then that should make for a more interesting show, like next one.

I want to know more about samaratin and how or what it is thinking, what is like, and same for the M,
but they are keeping all that in the distant background.

Ratings for poi are dropping, they moved ncis la, and put the new one and I think that hurt a little, and then maybe some are losing interest in the # of the week shows.
I say dropping, mainly the demo.

Well I should have seen that Mini was more then just muscle in the Brotherhood. So Shaw thinking he will have something to tell Dominic is ofcourse false,and her strategy for making waves from within, was for naught. But I thought he still might take out Link Corell.
Malcolm and Tracy Booker was a cut brother/sister team. I don't know how they got in and took the money out from under all that shooting though by the Brotherhood and the Armenians. I just hope Malcolm doesn't turn into a corner boy. Or Reese will have to find him , again!
Reese trying to get information out of the girls at Tracy's class was funny. The Queen Bee was a little bit to much. He had to pay for them to talk. Booker Kids idea was to get mom back from jail. Her "Punk-ass Bf" did it. I thought maybe Reese would go and help BF "admit" he did it. But a good lawyer was paid for to help them. Nice that the Social Worker said the kids will be able to live together. Reese told Malcolm he could become a lawyer. His reply, " I was thinking I want to be a cop like you, but I shoot less people!" cute!

Finch warning Elias to be like the Invisible Man was good advice.

Fusco helped nice.

Seems like a lot of cars running into other ones lately. This week it is Shaw hitting the bad guys Tahoe SUV with a Explorer, next week it is Root hitting one to divert the number.

Nice of Reese to turn himself in to Brotherhood to save Malcolm and show he had the money.
Shaw calling Link(on Reese's phone) and telling him, "Release Det. Riley,or I'll huff and puff and blow your house down!" lol.

I liked Reese(Riley) together with DEA Agent Erica Lennox and did suspect her at times as the mole, but thought to it was her partner Thomsen. But I also thought that Reese would save her from Brotherhood. I figured that she might have been working alone or for them and they were not happy.

So Brotherhood comes off to me as kind of a HR replacement? Even though they are on other side of the law. HR did their unlawful deeds for their own gains and to control things. It will be interesting how this develops. We have lost some groups last year. Madam Controls/Hersh's Northern Lights group has folded, and he's dead. She has disappeared. HR was killed/locked up, Officer Patrick Simmons dead and Alonzo Quinn was locked away. Peter Collier's group Vigilance were all killed. John Greer's Decima seems to have disbanded, but he has added Martine. But also the Government group of Mark Snow, Alicia Corwin, Kara Stanton and Nicholas Donnelly are dead and not around anymore. Carl Elias and his Mob is basically quiet, except for him and Scarface.
