Theodosia, I agree with your white font.
Oh, and I really liked they way they showed Jack in the episode -- He was really pissed off about the whole thing within the Bureau, but he's loyal first and foremost, so he didn't let on about any of that, talking to anyone from the outside.
Well, except when he
threatened the reporter.
Mostly I agree though. I don't like that about him, but I do think it's interesting.
eta, since I took so long to post
I like that they didn't actually go there, though.
me too, I guess.
still wanna know though.
Oh yeah, Perkins. I forgot about that one. He's been awfully
rage-y lately, huh? Threatening that bad guy a couple of weeks ago, and the reporter last week. That's got to be going somewhere.
Hopefully, Jesse. It would be fun
to see him go 'splody.
Oh yeah... He's either
going to just have a meltdown
or the writers have
forgotten how to write character consistency
.
Are they going to
tell us at the beginning of the next ep
or just
leave it
? I'd actually prefer the later, personally.
Jack can be a downright bastard, at times, but you can see how his job puts him in frustrating situations.
One thing I really do like about
WAT
is that I rarely have any certainty about where an episode is going. The victim can turn up alive, turn up dead, turn out to be the perpetrator, any given suspect could be a red herring. And any flashback can be a lie!
I have to admire a show like that.
I've always thought that Jack was
a little ragey. And also, not so much with playing by the rules. Though he seemed to get a little more chipper with the new gf so I was concerned that Maverick!Jack was gone for good. Or, at least, until the gf dies horribly.
WAT: I think it was the
girl
because I think
her situation
was more precarious what with the
stranger danger stuff.
Was the
Lynn Whitfield
character brought in just for this episode? Or do we think that
she
is going to continue to be around to make
Jack's life at work
even more difficult?
sumi,
Van Doren has been Jack's supervisor since Season 1. She only appears every now and then.
I didn't know that, Kristen, about the
Lynn Whitfield character.
I've only been watching consistently since mid last season.
I agree with your whitefont about Jack. I think the
chipper is going to lead to a bigger explosion, if it happens.
Sumi, I agree with your whitefont too.

Yep. I kind of feel like they played it a little safe here though, since what ever happened had probably already happened
by the time either was reported missing, so everything about the institutional racism was irrelevant to the actual fates of the kids.
