Sorry, worst episode of POI so far. They lost the meaning of the show, giving second chances. Virtually ignored the premise of helping people in need in order to present a dark, depressing, and real downer of a show. Aso, highly implausible to have an FBI agent act like that. I and the friends I watched it with all agreed it is not the show we tune in for and will not continue watching if it goes in this direction. I repeat, worst episode yet, and I was a huge fan of the show. Does Mr. Nolan know what's been done to his show???

Anyone else spot the blooper? Carter and Reese had to be cuffed in the car but after the crash they weren't. Loved Harod getting ready to storm the prison. Guys arguing over Bear in prison and Bear laying on John's suit. What is Kara up too? And why do we have to wait for a new episode???

@ Anne U. January 11th, 2013 3:35 PM That is a better theory! I think I am just overly eager for Root to come back lol. Kara appeared again in the present day at the end of that flashback episode in which you thought she died.

Love Person of Interest - however,this was not one of my favorite episodes. I felt Carter was sticking her neck out too much to help Reese and that as a result - Donnelly would uncover her dual roles.
I wish the Fusco/model storyline was more developed-in spite of that - watching Fusco is too funny.
Can't wait to find out what Kara has in store for Reese and what will happen to Carter???!!!

This was one of my favorite episodes to date! I love that this season they're giving the other characters a chance to shine and show that this show isn't carried by Reese’s character alone. Fusco, Carter, and Finch especially have really been holding their own! We got badass Finch, badass and vulnerable Carter, adorable and hilarious Fusco ...he did a fantastic job at carrying the humor of the show in this episode where the others were required to be more serious, and we got vulnerable and introspective John. John and Joss have fascinating interactions anyway they're some of my favorite, but this episode was them at their best. Great nuanced performances by Jim and Taraji. I felt like I was intruding on this private conversation and their private moments. A deeper connection than they've ever had. Loved it. The ending truly surprised me with Donnolly and Kara.
Best episode so far! I love this show and enjoy every episode but this was for me the best so far. Tons of twists and turns! I had a feeling that Kara was not dead.

What an amazing episode! My only complaint is that they really killed Donelly off too soon. It was fairly obvious that the phones were ringing to give Finch his number. And with the all the flashbacks it was not very surprising to see Kara walk out. They could've have devoted an entire episode to Carter and Reese trying to explain what they do to Donelly and have Finch and Fusco try and find Donelly before it is too late. I like the direction the show is going with less case of the week and more mythology. I hope this Kara storyline goes until the end of the season.

So much packed in one hour. So many twists and believable turns in that hour. I've said it so many times before that an episode was the best. This was by far to date the best ever episode of P.O.I. It's one of the best dramas ever made for regular or cable TV. If there were something beyond great, that's what it is.

I to was so surprised Reese and Carter would think they were safe. They underestimated Donnelly. But him alone was strange. But he hadn't been working since he arrested the 4 men in suits really with anyone but Carter. I to figured maybe Carter and Reese would convince Donnelly he was good. But surprised he was taking them to a safe house. Finch locked and Loaded was cool, I was going to figure Elias would help spring Reese. Then later want his help again. But between the Aryan Brotherhood group, and the Ghost Assassin. I wondered if Reese would take him in prison. But he told Elias to be careful. Maybe Elias has his people check in to the guy? John will have a show down with the Assassin.
So Kara drove the dump truck? I knew sometime they would get back together. I was kinda surprised, but after Donnelly's number came up it had to be her. But I figured Reese would save him. Carter hopefully will be safe. Maybe Fusco will get there in time to at least make Kara take off. But can she

Great show! Can't wait to see what Kara has in store for Reese and what will happen to Carter in the meantime. And I loved the bit with Fusco and that gorgeous thing who tried to beat the crap out of him and then ended up blowing his mind with that big kiss! Fun show! Maybe Kara and the chick who is after Finch can go a round or two!!! Maybe Kara can become Reese's partner. Just thoughts!
WOW! What a fast paced, fun, didn't-see-that-coming episode! The writers and the actors never cease to amaze me. I love the way Harold was going all out to break John out of prison. That would have been fun to watch! I'm dying to see the next episode. Kara might just be after the Machine/Harold. This show and NCIS are the best shows on TV. Keep 'em coming!!
But what is Kara real agenda? She is definitely out for revenge against those who set her up to be killed. She knew that while John had been ordered to kill her (as she was ordered to kill him) there was a fall-back plan with the missile strike that he spotted.

What a wonderful episode, I was sitting on the edge of my seat the whole time. The ending blew me away, as I wasn't expecting it at all, what does Kara want with Reese? I thought it was a little risky for Reese to show up to meet Carter at the bridge, but I think he thought enough time had gone by that it was safe to thank her. He let his emotions get in the way. I loved all the Carter Reese interactions, especially in the prison.
Great, nail biting episode

My husband and I are huge POI fans. Last night's episode was so full of twists and turns it left out heads spinning. At the end of the episode, we both said, "I didn't see THAT coming!"
Was anyone else suspicious of the women who gave the NSA head the file that was about the "man in the suit" at Rickers? I thought it was odd for the cameraman to show her legs like they did - maybe it is Root, maybe I am thinking into it to much.
I'm guessing it could have been Kara. I thought she was killed in that flashback (apparently not!), so she could have gone to work for that NSA guy, and the woman might have heard him tell the assassin to take out all 4 of the "man in the suit" suspects. Or I might be overthinking this. I don't think Root is anywhere near the NSA; she's too rogue for that.

I loved this episode. It did not give us a second to catch our breath! From Kara's return to "Dirty Harold" ready to storm the prison to save Reese to Fusco getting the gorgeous model with guns blazing, it was nonstop! Toss in Elias and the Aryan's in prison with Reese and if you blinked, you missed something. Best part was Finch running with Bear to save Reese and the phone/machine rang. Finch stopped only because he realized it could be about the case and realized too late that it was Donnelly who was in danger. What next??? Waiting 2 weeks will be painful!
PS - Kudos to Taraji Henson for her performance!

Grimmfan#10: We knew who you meant by Reboot.
Kate: Remember Reese and Carter were both handcuffed. That would limit Carter's activities somewhat, don't you think? However, I'm worried about what Kara will do to her. Also, if she gets away, there's the problem of her arrest by Donnelly. If he filed any reports about why he arrested her, she has that to answer for.

This is the best show ever on TV. We NEVER miss an episode and last night's kept us on the edge of our seats from beginning to end. I hope Donnelly stays dead.
I can't even beging to enumerate what I loved about last night's show. EVERYTHING. This show gets better, and better, and better. Why doesn't it get more promo time? Although - the ratings are pretty darn good.

I actually think, if you look at Reece and Carter before Kara shot Donnelly, John moved to fill the window more, I suspect so that Carter could escape out the other side (or at least hide initially), the question I think is whether Carter got immediately to a place to contact Finch and Fusco or whether she decided to try and follow Kara and Reece.

I somehow knew when the machine called Finch at the end of episode, it will be Donnelly's number! And after that, the pieces came together and I know who the would be killer is, since a lot of flashback between Reese and Kara. But what make me impatiently waiting for next week is what the heck is Kara agenda???!!! Arrrgghhhh! Love the mystery!
