Root's lady boner for Shaw is going to get someone on the team killed. Harold getting all pissy at free will logic the machine had was hilarious.

The agents that know of Samaritan's mission are so incredibly smug and insufferable. That alone would derail their plans.

At this point their ongoing decision to not loop Fusco in on everything seems a bit ridiculous, since he's already managing to get himself into Samaritan-related trouble every single episode without anyone's help. Seems like it would be less dangerous to just tell him.

Seems like it would be less dangerous to just tell him. I can understand them not wanting to tell Fusco. It is the difference between him bumbling into danger, and having a crosshair on his forehead. Samaritan has been very good at working out if someone knows about it.

Well, I think he was trying to save his own rear end by reminding her how futile resistance in a simulation is. I think he underestimated how much she wanted to watch him bleed.

I'm still not really feeling the Samaritan-related parts of the plot though, which seems like a problem with 5 episodes left to go. It doesn't really feel like they are making any progress there and I'm really getting tired of seeing the same old "I KEPT YOU IN THE DARK TO KEEP YOU SAFE" / "YOU SHOULD HAVE TRUSTED ME" routine that has been in like half a dozen different shows this season alone. I'm also the apparent odd one out here that enjoys the MOTW better than the overarching plot, at least since Samaritan came along

I think that Samaritan kind of hosed up because all it really did was give Shaw 7000 simulations of how to murder/escape/cause havoc. So basically she's just been in a prison escape and murder simulator for a full year. That's kind of crazy.

The "machine cannot beat samaritan in the Faraday cage" plotline is, what, three episodes old now?

My only issue with the season so far is how goofy it is every time they piece together that Samaritan is behind something. This episode in particular has Finch going "And there's only one other machine that could do such a thing..." "Samaritan." Like, maybe they're still getting normal numbers like Leon Tao between these Samaritan issues popping up, but you'd think they'd be a little bit quicker to assume that Samaritan might be hiding behind any corner.

raditts posted:That's not that unrealistic. It wouldn't be that great quality and I doubt it's something Fusco of all people would be able to do, but it's plausible, certainly nothing on the level of Zoom / Enhance. docbeard posted:I'm reminded a bit of a story they told during the DVD commentary for an episode of Leverage, where the network didn't think that something (a credit card skimmer, I think) was realistic. And they had to break the news to them that no, it wasn't realistic, that real credit card skimmers are smaller and less impressive-looking than what they put in the episode. As for tonight's episodes, my suspension of disbelief is sort of strained by the need for Team Machine to figure out why they are being sent somewhere. I have been looking forward to the Machine to be an open system since season 1, but still this element of here is a number and that is all you are getting is coexisting with this is the exact makeup of the supervirus and where to find the antidote. It just seems like the Machine could have said, hey, this guy has the flu and Samaritan is going to create a super virus by injecting him with another virus that was switched with the antiviral they are going to treat him with. This one guy who works there is in on it. Oh and that humble house painter I sent you to is now a Samaritan operative in case he shows up.
