I was nervous about the amnesia storyline, but I get why they did it, and they're moving away from it quickly.

Still one of my favorite shows on TV.

They went a little on the nose with the "Oh, it's the Congressman who is the hero of New Orleans because he built tunnels!". The subtlety of a brick to the face

Another pretty good episode. Definitely a lot more going on than last season. Almost too much at times; as it is 5 minutes here and then 5 minutes there and then 5 minutes somewhere else... and then 5 minutes 350 years in the past where everyone is long dead.

Surprised by Sims a bit. By the description of next weeks episode, I am guessing we will get more answers on that front. Just odd to reconcile the way he talked to her with him trying to help her, but maybe he just didn't want to draw suspicion. The nurse definitely should have given her a heads up on who she was going to meeting there though.

Also, the whole Orla storyline is just weird. I mean there has to be a reason they are giving it airtime, but it just seems odd to have all these storylines moving the plot along and then this seemingly localized murder plot that doesn't relate to anything else. Obviously it will have a role in all this somehow, but it just seems so out of place at the moment.

I really liked this week's episode. Felt like a good mix with both storylines.

Unlikely that the nurse knew who would be there.

Good episode though.

In a funny twist Common's bad acting is now sort of great acting in a meta way. You think of Common as acting as a character who themselves are trying to act in such a way as to avoid suspicion from all sides, a sort of one-note style would actually work in their favor.

While I was watching the latest episode I started questioning how the nurse was convinced to go along with all this since she wasn't with judicial and we never saw her being blackmailed/threatened and then two seconds later she's pulling a double cross.

I presume that the missing personnel from supply somehow figured out what the Vitamin D+ really is but I'm not really sure why their bodies were hidden.

I think it's pretty safe to say at this point that Sims is the leader of some kind of resistance to Camille. He's clearly orchestrating things, but nobody knows it's him.

When Robert and Camille were talking in the hallway, he makes it clear that he handpicked the nurse b/c of her loyalty. The nurse doesn't know about the algorithm, she is just choosing to obey Robert who she has a working history with over Camille that has the power but she doesn't know.

Actually, I am a bit curious why it took so long for them to start swapping her meds, since I'm guessing Robert made the decision to discretely save Bernard, presumably almost immediately. Perhaps Camille had a different nurse tending her at first and Robert had to pull some strings to get the current nurse installed. Also, why would she let Camille know that she quit taking her meds, that seems counter. I'm assuming Camille sent her to check b/c they had video, but she could have easily said she didn't find anything.

I'm guessing Robert, Bernard and Walker are working together. Robert saved Bernard and Walker is the one that put that 'locked' door up. Also, Walker knew to give her something from her past. There are some others in the mix too I suppose, like the girl that traded for a toy from her childhood. Although, her trading away her sheriff's badge for it would counter that, but could have been a fake or something??

I think she knew. Robert would have had to communicate with her what was about to go down and to get her to that room.


Regarding the twist, yeah, I was really annoyed with him this season that he kept on harping on her pulling a gun on them with all the crap he has done, but now it is obvious he was just trying to help her remember things from the past.

Do we think Camille is actually helping too but lying to the machine? That's probably a step too far but that "good at lying" scene was pretty pointed and then she was terrible at lying the time we saw her try to lie to it.

But that's probably too much.

Since Orla was from supply I've been assuming she got disappeared because she helped with the super tape that saved Juliette.

Great episode this week! Lots of questioned answered! Won't say too much at this point.
