You've forgotten that the show full of beefy men was titled 'The Unit'?

::relinquishes Is Twelve card::

Hee.

Excellent episode - I totally agree that Scruffy Ginger Goodness (SGG?) will be back.

My first thought was that it was so Wo Fat can exert a measure of control at the moment it becomes most convenient for him. Then again, I'm assuming it's Wo Fat who replaced the money.

Barb was in my brain. This was exactly my thought. How better for Wo Fat to have leverage over the team? The question though is, how did he know?

Remember our first sight of him? He visited Hesse in prison. Also, there was the detective who was a mole on the force who knew that Chin had been framed. Again with the suspecting, but Wo Fat probably has his fingers all in the various governmental pies.

Re: Castle, I will save my squeeing for after the coffee has kicked in but oh, holy mother, what an episode.

Fave line though: "I went through twelve years of Catholic school!"

I recognize Raglan's fishing buddy from Criminal Minds (he was the dead kid's dad in "Memoriam").

I feel like he's always a bad character (not necessarily the villain, but not a good guy), usually a cop, and often a corrupt one.

No love for Max Martini?

for a second, I thought that you were talking about The Cape :) (Is anyone watching it? Bueller?) But, his post-Unit typecasting is ex-CIA/Military/Black Ops/Assassin bad guy. Hottness.

How did we know who was on our tv before the internets? Were we really supposed to remember things?

well, for one thing, they weren't always scrunching up the end credits, so you could read them properly and maybe have a shot at remembering someone.

oh, yes. I was wondering if the governor hadn't had a hand in it. She might have figured out what happened and overlooked it/made it right on paper.

I watched The Cape and thought it kind of fun that they're going for the moral ambiguity all over the place, with our hero's mentors being baddies and the villain and the hero starting on the "I need to take you down but I have to protect you at the moment" thing.

I actually teared up when Martha said "As much as you love Alexis, that's how much I love you." There's so much of the "He told me he loved me, he must be in trouble" vibe between them, that it's good to see the love. And the look on Rick's face when she said that. I wanted a hug, but they don't hug, do they.

I would have liked it to have been a two-parter, so we could have more Ryan/Esposito trying to save each other from torture, but it worked well. Not completely resolved, but large steps taken. That was a busy hour!

For a not-kiss, that was pretty satisfying. I know it's entirely the trope that they enjoyed it and were a bit disquieted by how right it might have felt, but I think they played it well. Neither of them was cocky or smarmy at the other one.

Kiss aside (dammit), they were pretty Neal/Peter in their subdued attestations of devotion to each other. But neither of them can match Tim De Kay's microexpressions.

Which reminds me, Linus Roache! Whither art thou??

Hey, he's going to be in a tv movie with Lee Pace! and he's got another movie too.

Okay, finally figured out who Vulcan Simmons was played by and no wonder I didn't quite recognize him-- Bones viewers, remember our original head of the Jeffersonian, Dr. Goodman?
