Logan was great. He'd better be back. Carter's new arc is bordering on contrived but I'll give it the benefit of the doubt.

I really liked this episode. They took a different route and it took us to a nice place that I would not mind revisiting again.
I think that we may be seeing more of Logan in the future. They left the door wide open. I would not mind one bit.
The episode did make Carter and Fusco more back burner, but it was okay in the long run. The episode worked on so many levels.
The only thing that did not work were the flashbacks. They did not correlate the episode at hand. It did set up an interesting back story that can be developed.

Deann u seem to be the only person who felt that way about Logan. He was likeable and overall he is a wonderful actor. He was great in Breakout Kings. Harsh much? This doesn't seem like your normal sweet self.

Favorite moments will always be Reese beating up the bad guys, love that! And Pierce was a really enjoyable number, hope he comes back and shakes things up.
Talking about coming back, when is Zoe making a appearance again?

I loved this episode, I want Jimmi S. to guest star in all TV series, start with Elementary and go onto Community, he could be a long lost relative on The Middle or Modern Family. He is great and I love this actor (don't forget his guest turn on Psych as Mary). Any episode with Finch and Reese working the same case is outstanding. Love this show.

Dreamrose, you bring up an excellent question, and one that I wondered, too, after this episode. Though I wasn't too fond of it, I found that I enjoyed Reese and Finch and their interactions as usual, though I wonder if Reese really did pay 10 million for Einstein's letters from Finch's account, and then just left them at the auction? That would be grossly unfair to the people throwing the auction and to Finch, if he paid all that for the letters.
Also, I agree that Carter was kind of a jerk in this ep, too, telling Fusco she won't have his back if he has committed a crime. She has allowed Reese and Finch to commit crimes and still backed them up...what's the problem with Fusco getting her help? Bad move to abandon your partner, Carter!

I disagree with the reviewer that "the actor turned what could have been a simple arrogant douche into one with a charming charisma that made you like him"
Seriously, you have to have watched a different episode than I did, because I LOATHED that actor and his character from the beginning. He was an arrogant douche and an asshat and ever other foul thing I can think of, and he wasn't even remotely likeable. NOT ONCE did I find myself rooting for him to get away from the bad guys! I wanted him dead. He had all this money and he spent all of it on stupid things and he treated everyone around him like garbage. He was a jerk to Reese and Finch, and he was not worth saving, since he seemed hell-bent on getting himself killed because he couldn't live without all his drunken parties and his "friends" who really hated him anyway, and, like viewers, wanted him dead.
The actor was colorless, physically unattractive and brought to mind the term "fleshy" when it came to his face.

think Logan should be a regular...a cool geek to provide additional dynamic and balance between Reese and Finch. He has the time and $$$ to drop in every now and then.

Wow....Caviezel cleans up realllly nice! Just wish he'd smile more often. Great episode, just twisted enough to set it up for something down the road.

Yes, you missed an episode titled "Dead Reckoning" where Kara Stanton came back, killed Donnelly, took Reese hostage and made him and Agent Snow do her bidding. Great episode that will clear up a lot of confusion. It came on last week.

I was disappointed. Last episode I saw Reese and Carter were busted by the Feds. What happened after that? Did I miss something?

Please stop with the not needed extra people. Stop with the flash backs. These 2 can make a great show on their own with the person to save per week. We do not want to loose this one.

It was Pierce's partner that was taking out the competition.....buying out & submarining any competitor. Remember the meeting where he 'woke up' and pulled the rug out from under his partner by admitted they had done something wrong & would repay all money lost.
Pierce WAS the good guy & but just didn't care to be bothered with the day to day business of running the comany.

Pretty good episode. Definitely better than C.O.D and Critical. I liked that they took it out of the US.

@Eriend - I think maybe I wanted FriendCzar to have 3 billion, but thanks for catching that.
@Dreamrose - I like what you're thinking. I wonder if we will discover all that by the end of this season too.

Guest 10 - you are right that John killed both cops. The first group of dirty cops in the Pilot was not HR. That's the group that Fusco was in when he was told to get rid of Reese by taking him to Oyster Bay. Instead Reese escaped, killed Officer Stills and brought Fusco into the fold. In a later episode last season, Reese saved Fusco from being executed in the woods by an HR cop. That's the ep where Fusco destroyed the undercover cop's file before HR could figure out who the undercover cop was. That's also when Reese forced Fusco to become a member of HR by calling Officer Simmons for help with disposing the body. I also remember the Captain mentioning that the first group of dirty cops that Fusco belonged to were not related to HR and were in involved in more petty things --- essentially HR's scraps. But you are right .. a call from Reese to Carter would clear things up.

Awesome question Dreamrose, Here's a good question: what if Finch's number came up? And it was that threat that resulted in his traumatic injury and Nathan's death?
& another Awesome Episode, I really enjoyed it.

- "...FriendCzar, which apparently has over three billion users."
Not quite. According to the webpage on Finch's monitor, it has 973,422,068 users. Or, as Finch phrases it, "just shy of a billion".

Why is Fusco so worried about telling Carter about John killing both those cops? Fusco didn't kill either of them - John did. And the 2nd cop was only after Fusco because Fusco was stealing records for John and Finch. Carter knows about John - I don't get what the big deal is. John would confirm it and it wouldn't be an issue. And why hasn't Fusco told John that Carter was looking into it so John could tell Carter to drop it? Fusco may have been mixed up with HR when the first killing went down, but bottom line is he didn't kill either of those cops so he's clear on both deaths.
Fun episode. I too predict we'll see Logan come back. I can't see a universe where a man like Logan won't try to ferret out the truth, at the very least. He now knows there's another tech genius out there who might be as good as him, and a guy with Logan's ego, brilliance, and philosophy - he'll want to know. I wonder if he thinks (or can) upgrade the Machine. And if so, is the Machine advanced enough to feel threatened? Or am I thinking of another show which used to be on Fox? ;-)
I was disappointed in Carter. So she's a cop and won't help Fusco cuz then she'd have to arrest him? So, let's talk about John and Finch, Carter, and how you actively aid and protect them when you know they've broken the law.

I think the flashbacks were actually very important. Up until this point, it's been implied that the Machine might have eliminated Nathan Ingram since he was a potential threat. This episode, we see that the "irrelevant" numbers were initially directed to Nathan as the "Aux-Admin" - making it very probable that he got himself killed trying to help the irrelevants.
Here's a good question: what if Finch's number came up? And it was that threat that resulted in his traumatic injury and Nathan's death? And, thus, ultimately precipitating Finch's decision to take on Nathan's task of protecting irrelevants and finding someone properly equipped to do the legwork?

Eh, I was expecting more Nathan screen-time and didn't enjoy the lack of Carter/Fusco, but a good episode, nonetheless.
