Featured review
The Conspiracy Deepens
Another good building episode that didn't really reveal a whole lot in terms of story progression, as this show seems to be happy taking things one step at a time like any good mystery piece.
This time around Ben and Michaela are wondering just what happened to the other passengers on flight 828. As Ben is trying his best to put the pieces together they find out that not all those pieces are where they should be. Meanwhile Michaela is doing a rather excellent job at driving Jared crazy with her antics while at the Stone house, Grace and Ben must tend to an ailing Cal who is sick with fever.
While I don't understand or agree with the other reviewers on their dislike of Grace Stone, I do feel that the events at the hospital needed to be worked through a little more. There were a few events that made little sense, and it is understandable that emotions can run high during such a tense sequence while trying to save a little boy who is having unexplained health problems.
I think any viewer who is sympathetic might understand Grace a little bit here. She had a new chapter of her life about to begin when her old life suddenly shows back up in her lap and she's obviously not adjusting well. Having to watch a sick child suffer helplessly doesn't help matters and it is totally understandable how simply overwhelmed she must feel with her husband running off at all hours.
We are shown more about what the government may be up to, while a new player also is added to the table which may be more sinister yet. Originally I was only going to rate this one a 7, but they got an extra point from me for the Skid Row song. I like Jared, I hope Michaela doesn't make his head explode.
8/10.
