Well, guess we know what happens with the new team member. (From the teasers at the end of the episode) Wasn't expecting that to go down, of all things. Think that was poor writing, there could have been some other way for him to be kicked out.

Won't be watching it till I get the dvr going today after work; but that's an ominous report.
 
Yeah looks like Whiplash isn't quite who they thought he was. He definitely gave a shady look at the end of last night's episode.

Man I can't get enough of this show, I hope it airs for a long time and doesn't get canceled. Doesn't seem like many people know about it though.
 
Yeah I was quite surprised about the ending there.

Looking at future episode list... well two are named after Whiplash so I assume I know whats goin down.
 
Without giving away the teaser from the next episode - it appears that he's stalking this chick somehow. So he gained access to The Unit just to stalk her? Or just very well timed coincidence? Just frustrates me that he couldn't be a traitor to the country (instead of that chick Charles Grey is marrying) and sabotaging The Unit while all eyes/fingers are pointed at her.

yeah that seems like a bit of a stretch...it's that easy to get into the Unit? I don't think he was good as a long term fit anyway. He seems pretty sloppy for someone that got through the training
 
yeah, him having that picture wall was pretty freaky.

thought at first they were going to keep the money for the save a unit members ass in an emergency fund like they used when they went under last season, but was pretty neat to see them hand it over to the wife.

"where you see a red dot is your next mission; go get em." lol.




and yeah, previews for next not looking so good for someone.

 
That ending was pretty predictable. Wonder how much longer they'll drag this one out. I suspect a cliff-hanger for the season ending episode...Mack possibly quitting, this other dood holding someone hostage, and something with Grey and his woman. Hmmm. :thumbsup:
 
Watched it yesterday afternoon. Only thing I recorded sunday night and my going bad dvr was going to be swapped on monday after I watched it. Of course to pay me back the damn recording frooze on playback with about 10 minutes left so I had to get the very ending from the cbs site. Oh boy does cbs run the crappiest watch online site.


The chase and capture did seem like a rather big letdown till you saw him get away at the very end.

Exactly how did Mac (/why) get into the church?

We've still got rich girlfriend that lived in russia as well as crazy new guy plot lines to finish for the season, along with going after the red dots.
 
I think it is a big setup with Whiplash. They are giving him a cover as an ex-special forces fugative so he can infiltrate the terrorists.
 
Can anyone tell me where I can catch up on Season 4 of this show?

I have missed most of this seasons eps and I would love to catch back up (watching them, not reading about them).

I know it is available on Itunes for a fee (which is fine) but unfortunately if I do that they are only playable on Itunes so I cannot watch it on my TV only on my computer and if I am paying for it I want the luxury of watching on my TV as well, not just my computer.

Looking for any suggestions.

Thanks

Greg
 
Does anyone else think that new guy getting kicked out and all that was a covert op to get in with the bad guys?

Intriguing, but no way. Why would they continue to play the parts even with just them around (such as in the debriefing room)?
 
just finished watching it. subway scene was pretty damn intense.

i'm extremely torn on whiplash. if he is just deep undercover, i know the chick has no clue about it. and he was damned easy going taking out the other couple.

definitely has intrigue going for the final episodes.


p.s., leave mac's daughters alone 😉

Yeah, and I don't think he would just blurt out info about the unit - like their real names, and etc.

For those who have seen the preview for the next episode, I'm expecting Jonas to kick some Whiplash ass!
 
Yeah it's hard to say but I think that Whiplash is under cover. Then again I didn't see the preview for the next episode yet. Also presumably he told Leon Drake that the guys he was with recently to get the passports (Jonas and Mack) were actually undercover operators, and that he himself is an ex-operator gone bad... I'd think Leon Drake would have a hard time believing that and that he isn't just another operator undercover.

Also the way he was able to get away from custody. It seemed like something operators would do to get people to think you went bad but escaped. Did we ever find out how he got that cigarette?
 
very interesting twist for the next to last episode of the season. jonas is one badass with a pistol. so whiplash did turn out to be a plant for the unit, but damn talk about nothing is sacred with the way he went through it. and what's molly really going to do.

Hopefully DIAF. Easily the worst character on the show. Nearly as manipulative as Col. Ryan, but at least he usually has good reasons. She's just selfish, and always seems to have a bad attitude.

As a bonus the writers can use Snake Doc's new single status to cycle through new hotties every so often like they used to with Hector and Charles (before he got all whipped).

That would be the greatest change to the show.

President Palmer deserves better!
 
LOL

Looks like I was right about Whiplash.

Tonight looks like it'll be an awesome episode. I was hoping it would be a 2 hour but it's not. When I seen the preview about the wedding, I didn't think Grey was going to be in the action, but in the preview you see him for a second in the car. Then you also see Molly leaving the apartment with her suitcase, but that's not all that telling because last episode they said they were going home anyway. 🙂

Still no word on renewal next season. But most places seem to have it placed in the group that has a chance for renewal.

edit: Really need another season to wrap up some things...

We still don't know why Ron Cheals is in a wheelchair
What happened to Molly's father who got out of prison?
The episode with Colonel Ryan being promoted to a general didn't make sense to me, and we still don't know what happened with that (though that might be resolved tonight)
Still don't know if there is more to Redcap than there appears to be
