I really enjoy Covert Affairs and the growth in Annie's character. I like the way she and Auggie work together but I don't want a romantic relationship between them. I grew to like Simon but Ayal is the person I want her involved with. I don't know how that will work out but he is one sexy man and cares for Annie. I don't know what's going on with Henry but he's a devious man. I hope he doesn't cause Annie problems with Arthur and Joan but whatever he showed her she immediately agreed to help him. Great season and a cliff hanger ending.

It's not a big deal to me that Annie showed interest in Auggie. She has had a relationship w/most of the leading guys on the show.
I am interested in what information was in that file that Henry Wilcox handed to her. I am so sorry that I have to wait until next summer to find out. Now, that was a true cliff hanger.

i think Annie is playing Auggie - not because she doesn't care about him but because of something in that file. I think she cares for Auggie as a friend but not in a romantic way - the chemistry has always been one-sided.

Since S1 I've been really torn. I haven't been able to decide who I want Annie to end up with. I have always adored Annie & Auggie together because they are so supportive of each other. And I have always felt a chemistry between them since the first time he taught her fighting moves in the pilot. However, I have also adored Eyal in every episode he's been in. He and Annie have a spark that I have felt since his first appearance in S1.
If I had it my way, she'd be with Auggie now, but then (for reasons the writers can come up with), when it is ALL said and DONE, she ends up retired, on that boat with Eyal.
I've been thinking about it, and I think I figured out why I feel this way. No offense to Piper Perabo (b/c I really think it's bad writing more than anything), but while I absolutely FEEL every emotion emanating from the two men in Annie's life (their frustration, their respect, their joy, pain, love, etc), I have trouble feeling it from her. It feels one-sided at times. I

Annie and Auggie are better as friends. Whatever, I`m done with this crap.
Finally! Annie and Auggie get together. The chemistry has always been great. This show has grown on me and now it's set up for a great new season. Hope they handle the Annie/Auggie relationship as well as Castle does. Writers. are you listening? Can't wait to find out what Wilcox has up his sleeve and how Annie fits in with his plans.

oh Eyal. Well, Annie and Auggie have main character power so OF COURSE they will be put together. Sigh, poor Eyal. Auggie might have planned the escape but Eyal was the one who risked his life to save her.

This show has surprised me with its emotional depth. You don't have to have a soap opera, you can have exciting, thoughtful plots revolving around the empathy (and brains) of Walker makes her the most effective CIA agent possible.
I did think it was too soon for us viewers that only a few minutes after saying such an emotional good-bye to Eyal, Annie got together with Auggie. After putting off any discussion about A and A's feelings for each other for almost a whole season, and meanwhile spending a half a season watching Eyal and Annie stick up for each other in increasingly emotional ways, this union felt really forced to me.

Tanner, the tattoo was one that Simon wore for his sister, explained in the first Russia episode. I assumed that Jai used it as a code for Simon.

PS = a question. Am I the only person who thought it was asburdly, or perhaps disturbingly easy for Annie to get to the CIA database from the computer in the embassy infirmary?

Interesting and logical idea about Annie working for Joan/Arthur, Dadesh. For Henry to have killed Jai, he would have been in cahoots with Lena, since she admitted to killing Jae because he was on her trail. The guy who set the bomb had been associated with Henry in the past, so perhaps that possibility is open. I hope the show doesn't disappoint next summer!

I think Annie is working WITH Arthur and Joan to trap Wilcox. Would put it past him to have his own son killed for his personal gain. I am hoping that Annie turns out to be a plant and can finally put Wilcox away for good.

Like Auggie, but still don't like the idea of that romance. Suppose it was a nice way to end the season, though. Wonder if Annie will continue to wear Simon's key around her neck? I, for one, still mourn Simon. I thought Annie's physical appearance and clothing when she walked into the Vesta Diner nicely highlighted the character's journey this season - from enthusiastic "girl" to a more sophisticated, guarded, and hopefully wiser, woman. I half expected Jai to be waiting for Annie in the Vesta Diner. My guess is that Henry's folder contains some info on Arthur - maybe he is a Chinese agent - would have made that ambassadorship a good move. I also think Khalid may appear again as an asset, and I was glad that he didn't kill Megan - thought last week that his father was dangerous. Will fantasize about the Flying Levine now!!

This has been the best season of this show thus far. Disappointed we have to wait 6 months or more for it to return.
I am surprised Annie jumped on board with Wilcox so quickly.
However, you have to keep in mind that Joan and Arthur-Arthur more so- were ready to throw Annie under the bus with the Lena situation.
I think Annie and Auggie being together will be a slow go. I think they will want to keep it from the agency.
I think Eyal will possibly return next season. I was not impressed with Simon-the guy wasn't that good looking and for me, I needed something else besides them being up in five star hotels.....As to Ben, well, he's still out there somewhere......wouldn't be surprised if he was brought back.

I am all for Annie and Augie. I bet those who want her to be with Eyal, rooted for Ben and Annie remember him, Annie and Simon (boring) all he ever did was take her to foreign 5 star hotels (what chemistry are you talking about). Now you are rooting for Annie and Eyal, the Israeli spook with a kid. Are you kidding me. Annie has consistently picked the wrong men on this show the debonair, rogue, sweet talking agent that saves her life a couple times. Annie is a spy of course her life will be saved by other spies and vice versa they tend to do that in her line of work, one of the perks. However, a committed loving relationship does not have to be defined by it. I hope the writers get this, I am tired of Annie wearing all her past lovers mementos when she barely knew who they were. In the words of the great Auggie, It is time for her to come home, they are her family. By the way, Auggie does not need her, she needs him.

As an endgame Annie and Auggie fan....I felt this was TOO soon. It was just too soon. I still want her to sail off with Eyal. And she pretty much told him she wants to do that....so there are still feelings there.
And the end where she agreed to work with Wilcox - I'm sorry but she was so stupid here. I don't care what is in the folder. She doesn't know that it's actually real or if Wilcox is manipulating her to get what he wants - which is probably true. I think she's going to regret going against Joan and Arthur. Wilcox just wants his old job back. He's no good.

Used to be an Annie/Auggie shipper but was sucked over to the Annie/Eyal side over the past few episodes. They really have a spark. I think that Auggie is comfortable for her - but Eyal is exciting and unpredictable, like Simon, Ben, et al. Annie seems to go for the excitement; I don't know that this mature, settled-down thing is going to work for her.

I LOVE Annie & Auggie together! He is the only one who has truely been on her team the entire time. I think she has a better friendship with Eyal. He can't always be trusted. I also hope she learned her lesson with Lena and doesn't trust Wilcox.

So happy they didn't kill Eyal! Couldn't handle it if they had. It was bad enough that we lost Simon who I grew to love. This season was the absolute best and I don't think there's any way they could possibly top it. Having Eyal on these past several episodes is what actually made the season for me. He and Annie have the best chemistry and I was hoping they could make him a regular. I have no interest in seeing them try to put Annie/Auggie in a relationship. Seems like a best friend- brother/sister relationship to me. I'm done for now with the show unless they bring Eyal back next season.

Love the Auggie-Annie relationship. Was over the moon with them kissing. Sad to see Eyal leave but I imagine we will see him again. I think the secret file is about Joan & Arthur. I love their characters and love that they may be double agents.

Totally disappointed with Annie/Auggie relationship. They seemed more like friends. Annie/Eyal, a more believable, loving, caring, would give life for each other kind of couple. I hope Auggie's name is in the file of betrayal. Where Annie has to pretend to be close to Auggie to do her spy work on Arther and Joan who are responsible for Jay's death. Wishful thinking.

I think the folder has to do with Jai and his research about Simon. They never addressed the tattoo on Simon's back and the mark on Jai's boxes. I have been waiting for that all season and this seems to be the place where it will likely show up. How it fits in with Joan and Arthur is besides me, but this has to be it!
