    That drama was all about Weller's dad, not his mother. I don't remember her ever being mentioned, maybe in passing, but not as a storyline subject like his dad and Taylor Shaw, the person Jane was suppose to be. Of course, my memory might be faulty. I just don't remember the missing mom being the cause of all the pain in his life.

    I personally think writers are grasping at straws trying to keep this show on the air.

    That's because they are, but yeah, the Taylor Shaw stuff was nothing but red herring looking back.

    For me it was that she was wearing her boots in the house. Who does that? People who think they might need to run from the cops at a moment's notice, that's who.

    Yeah, there were red flags about that.

    Has Weller's mother ever been mentioned in four seasons? I didn't think so. Yet Weller says, "That woman has put me through so much pain my entire life." Your MOM is the reason for your "pain"? What pain? Any pain in your life, Weller, was caused by you. How freaking old are you? Close to 40? Geesh. Got issues much? (Well, yeah, he obviously does, since episode 1. So never mind.)

    Not sure, but it was pretty messy with the Taylor Shaw storyline and Kurt's family drama.

    I knew it was the wife. You don't have Elizabeth Mitchell on for no reason. I'm confused about what her motivation was. She was just a Russian spy or something?

    Yeah, it makes it obvious when they do that.

    Figured that would have been finished the last time Nye was on the show.....

    Probably had to squeeze in another cameo.

    Don't bother calling the team from "The Following". It didn't end well for the Agent Parker.

    Well it technically didn't end well for anyone there considering the way that show went.

    That was hackneyed.  If the writers thought that a life-in-crisis episode needed Rich's nonstop blather about every little item, they were wrong. 

    Did anyone else's forum format change to itty bitty boxes?

    The site is undergoing changes, I think.

    Is it wrong for me to have wished Jane and Weller had died in that episode, boy they have both become so pathetic this season. Rich and Patterson carry the show again.

    They should have put Jane in prison for killing an endangered species.

    Did that caterpillar have a machete? The scar on Jane's neck was longer than the caterpillar.

    I did like the ending where they broke Madeleine's deal because the lawyer's jamming device and insistence of no surveillance meant that no one could prove they every made a deal.

    Honestly, they don't know what to do with either of them, hence why there's constant forced drama that has to keep throwing at them.

    Poor Madeline! That woman never wins. Now she passed the Helios baton to Dominic (her second in command loser).  How much longer with these terrible villains? Now that they mentioned her sons, how long will it be until we see their attempt at terrorism?

    Yeah, the show need to be done with her and her people.

    Per Tasha: The CIA called off the dogs on Keaton and now he has carte blanche to do whatever he wants. Unbelievable. I knew that story line was a waste!

    Yeah, they didn't know what to do with her character.

    Considering this show has never been a ratings juggernaut, I was really surprised they had the budget to film on locations outside the US last year and this year too.

    They definitely cut down on the budget so they probably had some tax incentives or filmed in some cheaper locations in some situations.

    I'm also quite confused about what her whole endgame is supposed to be. It seemed to culminate with the episode where they tried to crash that Air Force One, which did not have POTUS on it. So I'm not sure what was the objective for it.

    Basically the villain of the season but without the attachment to Jane that the previous villains had and to facilitate useless drama between Tasha and Reade.

    So in 6 days, she gets a little victory, then ultimately fail and then try again (cycle repeats). She is persistent, if nothing else and is reaching the "Wile E. Coyote"  level of futility. This woman needs to go on a long vacation and reassess her goals in life (super villain isn't working).

    Because she keeps overcomplicating her plans and making even more problems for herself, she basically led a trail of bodies right to her in the end in this episode.

    I swear, by the end of the season, Weller will be reduced to a barely grunting meat puppet.  They've made both him and Jane dumber each episode.  

    Basically, the writers don't know what to do with either character so they're stuck being thrown boring melodrama subplots like the child plot last season and the zip virus/Remy thing this season.

    Shows always go off the rails when they try to expand things like that. It did work better before.

    Yeah, I understand the idea to expand the scope each season, but it worked better when it was a smaller scale.

    I am sick of The Laurel Show™.

    Same here.

    Was I...supposed to be worried when Laurel disappeared at the end of the episode? I mean, Christopher supposedly being taken by Xavier sucks, but I can't say I want the Castillo family drama back. 

    Exactly, I just wanted her to take away her family drama as well.

    I also was thinking...are we supposed to be stricken with worry that Laurel is gone?  Because I really couldn't care less.  It's sad the kid was kidnapped, but I'm really over the whole Castillo family.  Whenever something needs to happen, a Castillo family member or hitman/old family friend gets brought in to do the dirty deed and then I'm supposed to be mesmerized by the exciting mystery.  Hey writers - I DGAF about a character (Xavier) that just appeared on the show within the last couple of episodes.  It's just not exciting that some rando that just showed up is the Big Bad.  And because the rando is a Castillo, it puts Laurel front and center AGAIN.  Boring!

    Agreed, trying to make her family involved with everything was not a good idea and it's only dragged the show down each time it happens.

    I don't get what Laurel's family's beef is with everyone. It seems like the initial offense was that she got pregnant by a black guy, but that just seems like a preposterous reason to start a war within and outside the family. Her dad has Wes killed, she gets her dad put in prison, and now her brother is linked to Nate Sr.'s death? Why?

    Agreed, her family didn't need to be involved with just about everything.
