Zoe is back!!!  

Now I see, why Paige Turco was missing in The 100 episode 2x10. She was probably busy with PoI.

Yeah zoey was back, and no root, no S, no greer.
I liked fusco saying it is up to him and he wants in.

John is sweet on the woman, and he says he will change habits, which could be good but he needs to tell her what he is doing and that she would be in danger just by being involved with him.

I saw the previews  with no sound lol, but the girl I liked who won the contest is back in the next one.
at end it looks like she got shot.
 no root in those previews.

Could be this girl decides she does not want to work for S?
She was in most of the preview.

PoI just delievers all the time. I liked ep 4x14 a lot despite it was more a case of the week ep. But with Zoe back and centered on Finch and Rees just like at the beginning of their mission it was absolutely fun to watch. I also liked Iris, she's sweet and maybe she has a way to actually make John change his habits a bit.
I agree, they have to let Fusco in. I think this will happen this season.
For the preview you are right. It's that girl who won Samaritan's contest and left Finch to work for Samaritan. But it looks like she changed her mind and is helping Finch ...

How did you see the preview??
I agree, they have to let Fusco in. I think this will happen this season......... they already decided to
let him in this ep.
Iris is the shrink? If so I like her too, she sort of has some mannerisms of Amy, and is quite attractive.
her and john seem like a good fit for a romance.


It was case of the week I do wonder though why they  wrote amy out at same time shaw left?
Then this ep bringing back zoey and just the original 2 and fusco, like they are trying to get back to earlier times to maybe get ratings up.


Thing is now is not the time for that, probably too late and should just finish this season as serial, and  then maybe change things for next season.


I think also it is time for M to actually "talk" to harold and john, instead of the  code it uses to give them #'s
Same for S I would like to hear it speak to greer.

Yes, Iris is the shrink.
In the past I thought Zoe and Reese would be a good match, but now with Paige working on the 100 I don't see that.
Zoe also said that she and Reese are not made for lasting relationships:
"... But we really suck at letting people in. We're just not built that way."
Anyways, romance is the last thing I care about in PoI, the other plots and aspects are far more interesting.

The thing is, PoI always manages to connect even the case of the week shows somehow to the greater story arc (no other show does that as perfectly as PoI).
This time they found out that those 3 missing persons (the other numbers besides the jury woman) were connected to Elias and they thought that Dominic might be the reason for their disappearance. So I think we soon will get more of the Elias/Brotherhood war.
Another aspect of the greater story was the question, if they should tell Fusco the truth, what seems to be their decision now (still may take one or another episode to actually do it at the right time).
Last but not least, for me I'd almost say that - regarding the entertainment quality - any case of the week in PoI easily still matches any other show any time.
And don't worry, Root will be back soon. And with Shaw gone for quite some time, the risk for Root to be killed by the showrunners is zero!

I don't know. I almost would say I like it as it is, because so the AIs seem more like "machines" and more "strange".

 POI won the hour !

Anyways, romance is the last thing I care about in PoI, the other plots and aspects are far more interesting......... yeah but this is what gets many females to watch, so can help the demo if "they"
like it.
If you want a good female demo you always need to have that in a  show, it can be subtle but it needs to be there.
That is one thing this show did not have early on and really has never had one done well.
And it has affected the ratings.

I disagree. The relationship between Harold and Grace was rather perfectly presented. Right now it's on the backburner, but we will surely see more of it.
Actually I hope that a happy ending for Harold and Grace at last will be part of an hopefully outstanding and satisfying series finale.
And it actually makes a lot of sense for John not to get into a relationship. Considering what he's doing and the permanent danger he's in, it would be pretty irresponsible to have a relationship. Who would deliberately put someone in danger of getting killed or kidnapped by Samaritan, just for the selfisch wish for some love?? John's not the type for being that short-minded. Harold already acted very deliberate and responseful in that matter. So yes, I think PoI handled the topic of romance in an absolutely appropriate way.
And I don't care what the lovey-dovey female demo wants, they can go and watch one of the countless crap shows which are centred around relationship stuff all over ...
