I couldn't believe Liam got arrested. That's going to set back the project. Darius as president? Couldn't be any worse than what we have in real life. Except they're in a real crisis. I don't like Jillian joining up with those weirdos. I didn't care for Alonso being with Grace in that way. Too many shows do that. But now he'll kill her if he ever finds out the truth. Interesting that the dispute over nuclear weapons was on the anniversary of one of only two times they have been used. Have you watched the latest episode?

Abre Sus OjosI enjoyed everything in this episode. There was no cliffhanger. Harris and Grace were panicky because they could not locate Darius. Grace suggested interrogating Fiona and she was willing to torture her to get information. The chip was re-inserted into Fiona and she was left in an abandoned area for her handlers to find. The FBI successfully brought down the handlers and learned Q-17 is responsible for the assassinations.
Dr. Aguirre seemed rather strange at first, but his dramatic demonstration of the self-healing material was impressive. I was shocked when Darius revealed he was Dr. Aguirre. That reveal was a highlight for me. Finally, something to cheer about. More surprisingly, Aguirre is an alter ego Darius created ten years ago.
Rosetta could not stop the rail gun from firing at the nukes because Darius had changed the pass code.
At Tanz headquarters, there were just minutes to enact a plan to stop Re/Syst from automatically firing the missiles. The discord resulted in the death of one member of the team. All of that was exciting and it seems that Liam and Darius are, once again, on the same team.
After Jillian revealed her problems to Nate, he showed up at her door with Bass Shepherd and the COPE minions. There is nothing wrong with the words Shepherd said to Jillian, but his mannerisms caused me to distrust him.

The Manchurian Candidate
Darius is so dramatic and exciting that he is able to make political intrigue fun to watch. His uncle is one of my favorite villains and I enjoy watching him make subtle threats. He scared Grace so badly she walked away and asked Darius to end the event.
I am familiar with the title “The Manchurian Candidate”, but I did not know the significance. His uncle laid a heavy burden on Darius without his knowledge. Will anyone except Darius’ inner circle believe he had nothing to do with that group?
I knew something weird was happening in COPE. Will Liam's friend drink the cool-aid?

That really looked like it would be a cliffhanger but they solved the problem before the episode ended. That was scary! I never suspected Aguirre was actually Darius but I knew something was strange when his English suddenly got a lot better. Was it preicted that this show would have a B613? it does, but it's a Q-17. I saw the movie "The Manchurian Candidate" (actually, not the original) but I don't remember what happened. The first candidate for VP looked like a good one, and yet Darius didn't want him, until HIS choice turned out to be corrupt. So he can't resign just yet. I hope Jillian doesn't drink the Kool-Aid but I didn't regard it as a cliffhanger. I just don't care any more. The one girl who walked into Jillian's apartment had the nicest smile but she never spoke.

Salvation was excellent. Events moved along at a quick pace and it is a thrill for me to see Darius spar with Uncle Tanz. I do not think Dr. Phil would be able to mend their relationship.
I could feel the tension in the launch room when they were testing the system and Liam had to decide. I was pleasantly surprised when the take off was successful, but I was still waiting for something to go wrong.
Darius suspended Jillian’s security clearance a little too late. How could she be so naïve that she would commit espionage to please her spiritual advisor? Then she walked off with Grace’s daughter. I do not know if COPE is affiliated with Q-17 in any way, but it appears to me that the leader wants to destroy the sail & railgun to kill everyone. That is insane.
Being prospective grandparents is bringing Grace and Harris closer together. Harris agreed to disobey POTUS and free Grace's father so he could leave the country with her. Harris has suffered a lot of major disappointments and I am happy that he has something good to look forward to.

I'm going to do a double shot next week.
If this is still on the week after that, I'm planning to be at the beach (weather might change that) and won't watch anything. Aside from the fact that I won't have the ability to go back and see something I missed without a recording device, I will have cable channels I don't have at home and intend to take advantage.

Celebration Day
Salvation was exciting! We learned what CORE was planning for celebration day. But the leader has plans that do not include suicide for himself.
Unfortunately, we lost some people.
I am so happy Darius and Liam are working together.
Grace told Darius she and Harris will share a grandchild. Darius was stunned and it was obvious his genius brain immediately calculated the seriousness of that revelation and possible complications in their relationship.
I wish the show had ended tonight on a cliffhanger following COPE's celebration day event and pick it up in a third season. I do not want it to end, but I have heard no word yet on a third season.

Lots of excitement. I'm going to do a double dose next time, if there are two left. I can't go to the beach next week based on the forecast I just heard. That's the one good thing about that radio station that keeps messing up my computer.
I was afraid there would be a cliffhanger, but things worked out early enough in the first episode. I couldn't believe they lost the one weapon they had. And it was obvious they couldn't rebuild it in time, but there is another way.
I was relieved Jillian didn't do anything. The cult isn't what they thought it was.
The best thing about the episodes was the way Grace hugged her daughter and grabbed on to her, and continued to put her daughter above everything else.

I was trying to think of the words Jillian didn't drink something that killed her. And I hadn't considered she might be to blame, but the head of the group had a blueprint of the weapon. Oh, wait, he would have gotten that from Jillian. Why would she do a thing like that?

I do not want it to end either, but I do not think I will wait a week to watch the current episode. There is an episode next week. I tried to get a sneak peek at the description for episode 13, but information is closely guarded.

Q-17 and CORE are connected and working toward the same goal – steal Salvation. To make their plan work, they had to steal Darius so he can pilot the ship.
Darius was planning to sacrifice himself to ensure the ship would hit its target. He wanted to spend his last days with Grace before going on the suicide mission.
Harris proposed marriage to Grace and that would allow Grace and her children to be safe in the government bunker. She accepted, but then spent the night with Darius.
Alycia admitted to Liam that he broke her heart and she is furious that he still loves Jillian. Jillian escaped from the bunker and called Liam. She saw Darius in a vehicle headed to the compound and whispered his name before the phone died. Liam heard her, but he does not know her location.
The finale should be very exciting.

I won't be going to the beach so I'll watch both Monday night. All this assumes I'll still have power, which I should given that I'm on the main line. But the rain is supposed to continue through at least Monday. Unless it gets better at the beach, even if they clean up for tourists by then which seems unlikely, I would have no reason to go.

This was a good finale and there would be a thrilling 3rd season.
The episode jumped 44 days and Darius was out of action during that time. Darius was remarkable even though his visions and head problems made him seem delusional. Once a genius, always a genius – I guess. Darius never gave up trying to solve for X.
I was not interested in the relationships drama because I was so focused on Darius, but when I saw Dylan, for a moment, I thought he was a hallucination. He was NERO and no one suspected because people thought he was dead.
It was exciting as time drew closer and closer and the hummingbird solution remained out of reach. I enjoyed the ending.
I do not know the significance of "get ready" and I expected it to mean something profound.

The finale should be very exciting. I couldn't believe it. The one way to stop this asteroid, if it even works. I guess Darius had to be the one because who could ask someone to do that. Liam could have but he would die. Marriage to Harris will serve on purpose. Grace ended up in bed with Darius, however. Grace's daughter had to decide whether having a child would be a good idea. That is a good question. I was so glad Jillian got out. What an amazing coincidence that she was right where Darius was and could rescue him.

I do not know the significance of "get ready" and I expected it to mean something profound. The episode made no sense. I was beginning to think it would all be a dream while Darius was under the influence. But it was exciting as Darius had to find the solution and then get it to the military before they destroyed the planet in order to save it. Amazing that Dylan was alive and had kept this fact a secret. But at least we knew he would be on our side. But would his plan work? Studying hummingbirds the way Darius did wouldn't be a new thing. Surely others have looked at video of hummingbirds in slow motion and tried to figure out how they move their wings that way. I think we were cheated at the end. There should have been a cliffhanger in case of a season three. But someone took the easy way out and gave us an ending that completely defied logic. I suppose there is a cliffhanger of sorts since we don't know what this thing is. I was glad I waited a week. it was worth it to see it all at once.

That is why Darius had to crash through the gates to talk to the military. Did you mean something else regarding Dylan being on our side?

Well, if he was keeping the government from using the nuclear bombs I assumed that meant he was on our side because we want Darius' plan to work. Maybe I missed something.
