Two Sided Story: Blindspot "We Fight Death on Thick Lone Waters"

In the second to last episode before the fall finale, as the team goes undercover things take a shift turn.

When the FBI takes on a case and gets Weller and Jane to go undercover mission, but the mission takes a south when guns and bombs go off. While the team gets two suspects, Weller and Jane are missing.

Back at headquarters, the ADA is there waiting get his hands on the team once again. But he gets involved in this case. Reade and the ADA interviews the female suspect while Nas interviews the male, who by the way told one hell of a story from his point of view. He made Weller look like a weak defenseless person, and Jane too.

While during the interview, they get information that this mission that they were doing was for a man named Marco, one of the top 10 FBI most wanted.

Reade and Zapata goes out and checks out an area but spots Jane on the road, picks her up and takes her back. There she tells them what REALLY had happen. Weller took on Marco, by jumping into his boat while Jane was left behind.

Nas, Reade and Zapata head back to find Weller and bring in the money. Weller and the scientist, that they kidnapped, escaped. But they didn't go too far. Weller looks for Marco and just as he was there, Nas and Jane get there and soon take Marco done. Apparently, Marco was the man that meet with Jane, Weller and the other two at the warehouse.

Meanwhile, Zapata tells Reade about what she took the knife in the Jones case, thinking that it was his but it was his friend's. The two argued about it but she got it back in time and Reade got his friend a one way ticket out of the city.

Nas gives Patterson a gift of the access to all the stuff that Nas has in her basement. I guess she thinks she's moving up.

This episode was really good. I enjoyed the second suspect's story from his point. I thought it brought a lot of humor (for me) to laugh and I did laugh my pants off too. I guess Weller seems to be in a love square type of relationship: Allison, Nas and Jane. There's something there and it's kind of freaking me out.

Each actor gave a really good performance. So was the writing as well. And it leaves to the the biggest cliffhanger for the fall finale, Phase II is about to begin!

Overall, I give this episode a 8/10.

Bones Final Season Teaser

Well, it's here.

TVLine has gotten an exclusive first teaser of the final season of Bones. And Booth is going to go all out to get his family back.

In the season finale, Brennan was kidnapped and in the surprising twist it turns out that kidnapper is Zach. Oh yeah!

Even if it's a 30-40 second teaser, it kind of gives me a touching moment when they put previous clips throughout the season.

Here's the teaser:

Hope and Feeling: Timeless "The Alamo"

When Flynn travels back to The Alamo, Lucy, Wyatt and Rufus travels there learning only feeling and hope when things change once again.

This might be one of the fun and most interesting episodes so far. The series does amaze me week after week of the story and the well known historian characters.

After a freaky night that Rufus had with Rittenhouse, he confronts Conner about it only to tell him that he needs to do his job. Meanwhile, Wyatt was about to be transferred because he has not done his job taking out Flynn, but before that could happen the staff spotted Flynn heading back to 1836, The Alamo.

Of course, Flynn tried to make a deal with Mexican President General Antonio Lopez da Santa Anna to help to take Texas, only three days before the actually end date.  But as Lucy, Wyatt and Rufus gets to the Alamo, Flynn gets in there and kills William B. Travis just before he was writing his :Victory or Death letter."

The Mexican army was speeding up the process, something that Flynn didn't want to happen and asked Santa Anna to let the women and children go, but he wasn't gonna take any order or advise from Flynn.

With Travis dead, Wyatt tells Lucy to write it, even if she couldn't remember a lot of what was said. While that was going on, Wyatt was advising James Bowie about how to handle the Mexican army and told Bowie about his sacrificing for the good and how he lost his friend in the war.

As the war starts, Rufus tries to breaks a stone floor where there's a underground passageway so that the women and children could run safe. And soon Lucy figures out what to say after listening to Wyatt speak about how it can't come from the mind set but how it feels from the heart and boy did that get the ball rolling.

As they were about to leave, Wyatt saves a young John William Smith and gave him a letter and ordered him to deliver it. By the way that Smith kid will soon became the first Mayor of San Antonio.

Lucy, Wyatt and Rufus made it back with Lucy and Rufus telling Agent Christopher that they won't go on any more missions without Wyatt. Wyatt gets to stay and inform his old army buddy about the bad news but they rekindled and hope to see one another.

Lucy gets back home and tries to reconcile with her mother, who they had an argument about her job, wedding and her father. Well, she tells Lucy about her father, that he's a professor and is outspoken person. But she handled her a folded note, but we don't get to see or know who it is. My guess would have to be Flynn.

This episode had a lot of really good things, one being that we get to learn more about Wyatt, him recalling his last duty in the army. Another was just watching and listening to Davy Crockett. Yeah I might be a fan, watching old series with my grandfather. Each of the characters dealing with finding hope and feeling, which I would think is a moral to the episode. With what Lucy had to do with writing the letter, Wyatt's speech not just to Lucy but to Bowie too.

Overall, I give this episode 8.5/10.

Love Stinks from the Truth: The Blacklist "The Thrushes" & Dr. Adrian Shaw"

These two episodes set up tonight's fall finale of The Blacklist.

Let's begin with "The Thrushes" as the Red and the team are still on the hunt for Kirk. Red picks up Kirk's bookie and brings him back to the US. There Red and Liz tells the team about him and what they want to do. When they take the bookie, by the time they were about to take him in, he gets shot and killed.

Now you would think that it was a shock, no, not to Red at least. Because that was a plan to prove to him and Liz that the Post Office has been hacked. So, with the the Post being hacked, Red gets the team to what he calls The Past.

But he informs them about The Thrushes, a team of hackers that hack for pay and only hack to the highest difficulties. Well, they're working for Kirk. It shows later that the Post Office was hack and it was by someone that they know. Aram's girlfriend. Yeah, go figure! Can't trust someone that good of a person to think that they're gonna do something against you.

Aram figured it out and decides to take them out with his own little duck. His only chance would be to do it while him and his girlfriend were to have dinner. Will he succeed? You bet he did! In a great way too with some awesome fight scenes.

Kirk messages Liz and they planned to met on top of a building. As Liz heads to meet Kirk, so does Red and his team. Kirk thinks that she would lose Red but really didn't. As Kirk has Liz's baby, Red makes a scene in and Kirk walks towards the edge of the building. Liz calls him dad and soon just gives her the kid and surrenders.

Kirk is taken to the Post Office and placed inside The Box for his wrong doing.

Now in Dr. Adrian Shaw, Red and the team looks for Dr. Adrian Shaw, a doctor that gives new identities for people by killing others. In a way it's really creepy but very interesting.

The more focus in this episode was between Kirk and Liz as his health gets worst. In the hospital, he needs blood so Liz tries to give him some but it doesn't seem to work out. The next option was for her to give bone morrow but turns out the testing of her blood turns out that she is not related to Kirk.

Kirk does have connected with his assistant and plans to break him out, but how? There was a bus crash that kept the hospital on its feet that no one would notice who is who and most of those that were there in the ER were Kirk's men.

When Liz gets the news she tells Kirk about it and he thinks that Red messed with it but he had no clue about it expect Red telling Liz to get out of the hospital. By the time that was said and done, hell breaks loose. And we're left with to what's to come tonight.  

Tonight is the fall finale. It looks like we'll finally know the truth of who is Liz's father. The suspense is killing me. Is it killing you too?

Feel and Love: Chicago Med "Alternative Medicine" & "Inherent Bias"

In the episode "Alternative Medicine" it seems that it was a day of feeling for what most doctor went by and one that couldn't believe.

This episode seemed to be more of each doctor's feeling and belief of their knowledge in medicine. For one Rhodes had to deal with Latham and Halstead. With Latham was about a man who just had heart surgery, but when rechecking his heart, Rhodes couldn't hear anything wrong. But when Latham checked, he tells both of them that the patient needs to go back in to replace an artery.

Shocking to Rhodes, he couldn't hear anything for the second time. But than came when Halstead had a patient, who he diagnosis of a dead bowel. Now Halstead only believes that it's a dead bowel but Rhodes doesn't see it. Halstead convinces him that he felt it and from what the guy had gone through fits. Of course, Rhodes did the surgery and Halstead was right.

Reese felt like she was being followed, turns out it was Danny from previous episode. Danny wants help but doesn't want his pimp to find him and asked to have therapy with Reese outside the hopsital. Of course, Charles doesn't approve of it but didn't realize that what she was doing kind of brought back an event of an incident that he had with a patient.

So, Charles tell Reese about a patient that he thought was doing well but committed suicide and it drove him crazy and had to give up his private practice. He takes Reese to CPD and talks to Erin about it. She warns her to be careful that it could lead to a horrible thing.

Reese talks to Danny and after about one suction, she tries to talk to him to come in and get help but he runs away. Coming back later with a bullet wound and then gets that micro clip out of him and Reese dumps it outside in a water drain.

Meanwhile, Manning gets a return patient, the little girl who has cancer. She wasn't doing to good and it seem that what she was trying to do is go with her gut and feeling on the best way to save her even though everything lead to her dying. Taking the child's death personally, Cho comes to her and tells her that a patient, who happens to be doing some amazing things with medicine. She does and it cheers her up that maybe one day they could find the cure for cancer, like her patient.

My thoughts on this episode will be below after the next episode recap.

In the episode "Inherent Bias" a former friend and classmate returns to a familiar face for one doctor who happens to had past relationship.

In this episode, love takes over when a former love comes back in a bad situation. Reggie comes in Med, couldn't breath and asked for Sharon Goodwin because those two were dating back in the day. The two talked about old times but his health takes a bad turn even though Cho and Manning are trying to get of head of it.

But Reggie kept getting worst and Sharon was getting upset about it. She orders Cho to go on a different medicine. But after so, Reggie had died.

In the meantime, Halstead was pulled into a doctor on call app but it didn't do too well for him. Also Charles gets in between Rhodes and his daughter when his patient was to have surgery without the patient's consent but Goodwin overruled Charles on that after the day she had.

Reese tries to help Danny, this time finding a place for him. She asked Erin for help but he doesn't tell her much. He was kicked out of the shelter. So with no other place to taken him, he asked her if he could stay at her place, for which might be a bad idea but she went through it. But by the time she'd agreed to it he was gone.

Also April finally agreed to her boyfriend's proposal. But she is really happy to take his hand? Yeah I think so but her health takes a turn at the end of the episode.

For "Alternative Medicine" I thought that this was a really good episode. I thought the writing was good from Reese's storyline with Danny and Erin to Manning's of the kids and the little girl that died. IT was emotional at times but also uplifting when seeing kids experimenting and creating something for the future of medicine.

For Inherent Bias" I thought this was a fine episode. Goodwin's character really stole the episode. You can just see her change after each bad turn that Reggie suffered. I guess that's what love does to you, right? Halstead had a really nice humorist storyline, as a docs on call with April's brother. Even though the patient he was treating had a nose bleed, Halstead thought it was something worst but wasn't.


OVerall, I give "Alternative Medicine " a 7.5/10 and "Inherent Bias" a 8/10.

You can catch Chicago Med Thursday nights at 9/8c on NBC.

Jump, Kick, Kill: Blindspot "Resolves Eleven Myths"

In this episode of Blindspot, the FBI is under attack when a familiar criminal returns for help from Weller and Co. before an assassin takes him out.

This so happens to be one of the best stand along episode of the season so far. It felt like a stand along to me. When Rich Dotcom returns in a big way, threatening the FBI of wiping up their memory. But he seems not to be interested in erasing their files, but more of wanting them to find him, where he was at Weller's place, drinking his beer, cooking up hot pockets while watching Stranger Things.

Rich tells Weller and Co that he needs their protecting from an assassin that is hunting him, after an oops in North Korea. He tells them that his partner is died and that he helped him escape death. When they put Rich in a cell, he escapes later and when the FBI looks at the security cams, it shows officers are dead.

This assassin's name is known as Ray Yamada. He is like Bruce Lee meets Spiderman, the guy is quick. The FBI splits up with Zapata and Reade searching while Weller, Jane, Nas and Patterson stay on base. But Reade and Zapata meets Yamada and the three went dancing like no other, getting a both of them a real butt kicking. Yamada takes Zapata and drugs her with a toxin with only three antidotes, one of which can save her and the rest can kill her.

Reade and Nas get to Zapata and saved her after she was using Morse code. Meanwhile, Weller and Jane tried taking down Yamada and that wasn't quick as easy. But after Jane got knocked down a couple of times, she channeled a dream she had with herself battling it out and used that against Yamada. As they were fighting Weller gets into and tries to get him to talk but fails and kills him instantly.

Just as you would think that it's over and Rich was going back to prison, Patterson was listening in after she was cleared from that blast that went down in their office. Rich gets picked up and headed back to jail until he wasn't and was picked up by his partner, Boston. But they didn't escape, as Weller and them got to them just in time.

I really enjoyed this episode. I really do love those stand along, kind of bottle episode that had a lot of action and drama. Reade and Zapata having difficulties of the Jones case, Nas and Weller having their separate of opinions on Jane again. And Jane starts and ends her relationship with Oliver. But the ending of Roman getting a message about his sister and the FBI just turns up the heat.

I also really enjoyed the director's take, from Jane's nightmare, the fight scene between Jane, Weller and Yamada and Jane and Oliver. It had the look of Kill Bill meets Resident Evil meeting Mr. Robot. It had that kind of feel and look to me.

Overall, I give this episode a 8.5/10.

You can catch Blindspot Wednesday nights at 8/7c on NBC.
