Spoilers Beneath :
What an episode! Excessive stakes, Drone assaults, close to demise experiences and a gaggle hang around, an ideal FBI episode in my eyes. This present has at all times had our favorite’s lives within the stability, however this time I actually thought we could lose considered one of our personal. It’s a Dick Wolf present in spite of everything.
The episode begins with a bang actually and figuratively, you really need to really feel for Taylor Minskoff (Finn Brown) having his mom, father and nanny die . Not solely that, additionally having to see the aftermath of the explosion on his personal. I’m glad that they had been capable of have him be reunited with different relations shortly.
It’s at all times humorous to me when the FBI annoy native police by taking up the investigation, Maggie (Missy Peregrym) and OA (Zeeko Zaki) are such seasoned professionals that their fast responses to native officers by no means fail to make me snicker.
It’s secure to say I by no means knew till this episode that ovens might have a digital camera in, nonetheless it was surprisingly helpful on this occasion. Initially, I had assumed that the range had C4 packed below it so when it was turned on it went off, however to my shock it was a drone strike.
My jaw dropped once they introduced that one other penthouse for a CEO had been hit, I by no means anticipated it to be simply greater than the one assault. It gave me goosebumps when Jubal (Jeremy Sisto) introduced that it was the primary drone strike on US soil. The weapon of selection was clearly extremely subtle and capable of observe targets primarily based on facial recognition and motion. Which actually got here up later within the episode in an enormous method.
At first, I didn’t assume that brining all of the board member’s into one place was a good suggestion, as to me that left them as an open goal, in addition to 26 Fed. It’s secure to say that the board members weren’t essentially the most thoughtful folks and the ending of the episode really confirmed that every one they cared about was cash. Nevertheless considered one of them did supply to indicate Jubal and Isobel (Alana De La Garza) a risk video that was despatched to them by former co-founder Perry Hinton (Chris Wendelken). Maggie and OA discovering that Perry Hinton had killed himself wasn’t a shock to me, nonetheless the timeframe of his demise actually did. Him dying earlier than the video was despatched was a genius plot, the potential for having a rogue AI was a tremendous storyline. The board not understanding how their very own product labored was baffling to me.
Actually, I by no means have been or will probably be a fan of AI and this episode cemented these emotions. Particularly with the deep faux that Scott (Robin Lord Taylor) was capable of do of Perry. His hand scar being the factor that tipped Jubal off was unimaginable. It was such a fast scene earlier on within the episode that had such a excessive influence. Dani (Emily Alabi) and Scola (John Boyd) holding Scott at gunpoint was a extremely intense scene ending with the pill that managed the drone being smashed.
26 Fed not being the goal crammed me with a small quantity of aid till we noticed Maggie and OA making an attempt to rescue Warren Foster’s daughter (Carmen Salta). Earlier within the episode they’d stated that the drone might use facial recognition, proper from that second I knew that the ending of this episode could be probably the most intense ones of the season, and it was!
I actually do not know how Maggie survived that blast; my breath was hitched for your complete scene. I actually believed yet one more present on this broadcast season could be killing off a fan favorite. OA’s shouts for Maggie actually killed me, we simply noticed him say he couldn’t think about shedding her and now it appeared like that could be turning into a actuality for him.
Due to his efforts Maggie regained consciousness and lived to combat one other day, I undoubtedly breathed an enormous sigh of aid.
The ultimate scene of this episode was my favorite. OA guaranteeing that Maggie wouldn’t be left alone, inviting Scola and Dani to hang around together with her and eat meals was so healthful. Particularly because the episode began together with her offscreen break up. The 26 Fed workforce really is a household and I like to see group hang around scenes once they’re not on obligation.
What did you consider this episode, and did you concern Maggie would die? Tell us beneath!
