Angel: Is that what you think you are--a hero? Spike: Saved the world didn't I? Angel: Once. Talk to me after you've done it a couple more times.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
and Granui kept deflecting his stooge's plan to use Jeanne against Tony.
No, I think it was the other way around--the double agent didn't have conversation records, so Granui couldn't have found out about Tony being NCIS; the double agent said that Tony wasn't in love, in an attempt, I think, to deflect Tony's value to Jeanne and therefore to La Granui; in truth, the agent kept from telling the Frog a whole host of things that he could have said about Tony, which makes me think that the investigation was about Jeanne and the men she dates, not Tony, to keep from compromising Tony as an agent and a spy and also to protect Jeanne from the true knowledge about her father, which I suspect she doesn't have.
It was a nice little twist, though, because the clue was there if you're looking backwards--what are the likelihoods that a procedural would introduce a French arms dealer and Tony's girlfriend with a French name and *not* have them be connected somehow--but it was also a surprise, for me at least.

Well, I felt like the real action ended about 15 minutes before the end of the episode.
Yeah, I kind of felt like that, but I loved the very end with Jack staring off towards the ocean, gun dangling by his side, all his brokenness and not knowing what to do next on his face. Didn't make the whole season worthwhile, but it was a lovely image.

It crossed my mind when he dropped from the helicopter, but right at the end I don't think he had even that much self determination. He'd gone from forced subservience in the Chinese prison camp to 24 hours of doing what needed to be done to save other people and the one thing he wanted - to be able to take care of Audrey - he realized he couldn't do.
I don't know what he'll do next, either. Get some sleep, I hope.

Ha! Only if he can see that it is good first, I bet.

Compassionately intolerant
Cute and narrated by the most fabulous Jim Dale. I know this because I have listened to the Harry Potter audiobooks obsessively for years. Next to Davina Porter and Barbara Rosenblat, JD's is my favorite voice of all time.
Wonder if Pushing has a VO or if the promo was a one-off.
