Well, crap. I thought for sure we'd get a reveal, or at least another clue about Sir's accomplice. They showed Sir in an RV; so I thought the team would somehow make a connection. COTW: Figured the missing person was probably having delusions early on. Seems highly improbable though that a teen mother with schizophrenia was able to make it so far on her own, and raised a seemingly normal child, though. Flashbacks: Ugh - Sir's such a creep! And Gabi's always been a fighter, but now we see how that started being literal. So Zeke's stuff getting confiscated didn't seem to affect anything at all. Has there been an episode without any input from Zeke's computer-fu? It might have been interesting to see the team deal with no Zeke for an episode. And he really can't use ANY tech? Besides being at least a bit unreasonable, how would one even enforce that? Poor Margaret, this episode. :( But I did like that they brought back her daughter, and that Dhan was able to talk her down. I don't think there have been many one-on-one scenes with Dhan and Margaret. Glad we finally got a flashback to the bus station incident. Well, I guess Sir having a plan to break up the M&A family raises the stakes, and makes it not only about Gabi anymore. But he wants to "cure" them? Oh man - I would hate it if he's the one to actually solve Jamie's disappearance. (Hopefully, me typing that out jinxed it!) Things that are getting old: a) Sir being able to get into close proximity to everyone but also still not being able to get recognized and/or arrested. b) Gabi confronting Sir on her own because it's PERSONAL. Like, girl - we know you're strong and all, and trying to get your revenge on, but do you want this guy caught or not? BRING BACKUP.

I did like that the flashbacks explained how Gabi and Lacey came to consider themselves sisters -- they actually did live together for a while; and it wasn't just the trauma bond of them both being kidnapped.

Getting this in before the episode: Nevermind; Sir's accomplice will probably be revealed tonight. From previous episodes, it looked like Sir has been living in an RV, and from the promo it looks like there's a confrontation at an RV.

This always seemed like a one-time thing, so this "cancellation" isn't surprising: https://x.com/bryanleeomalley/status/1859336990405296142

I need y'all to have faith! 😭 He definitely used to work for the government; not sure whether he's actually ex-military, though. That might be a ret-con? I think they only really got into his backstory in the first couple of seasons, and I don't remember details from that far back either.

From July at TVLine: (emphasis mine) But we still haven't seen her yet. I wonder if she gets introduced in this week's fall finale, or later next year? Most of us are thinking she's Lena, (probably) Sir's sister and accomplice, right?

I kept forgetting that this was actually getting made (because, why??). Even besides the fact that they seem to be going the shot-for-shot; I don't see how remaking this in live-action adds anything -- except maybe certainn action scenes will be even more traumatic?

I think I had heard about this before, but I didn't realize it was going to be a network show. Sounds slightly more interesting than the typical procedural; and I hope it is.

Promo:

Hmmm... according to Deadline, CBS is considering a spin-off. It would be based around two new characters that will be introduced later this season.

Here's hoping! But I don't even mind the occasional CIA stuff; it was that Robyn was getting pulled back in way too often (when she's supposedly retired from that life), also past nemeses kept popping up. We can do a CIA plot once a season, IMO.

I'm gonna need y'all to not jinx this for me! 😉 This was part of the silly circumstances I mentioned before; police should have been all over that scene within minutes.

So that was kind of a mix of a CIA case and an Equalizer case. So a bit more tolerable than a straight CIA case. Ugh -- they were doing so well, then they had to have Fisk say "mall cop" literally one last time. Not sad to see Fisk go, although I thought the circumstances were a little silly/unnecessary. Definitely silly is this love triangle with Robyn's ex. Anyway, nice to see Dante in town and having scenes with Robyn again. Never been a fan of amnesia storylines, so I hope they resolve that soon-ish; as in before Ben dies. Is it a rule that TV hackers have to be annoying in some way? Fashion highlight: Only Robyn's hair this week. But it's also nice to see Dante dress more casually now that he's out of the NYPD.

Yes, I've seen one of those ads, and I was like - 'That's not how that works.'

They actually haven't given us much info, but he was a prisoner of war held captive for months(?) at least.

I was about to be mad about no Kenan, but then he showed up for 2 minutes. Wow, this one was pretty heavy with celebrity impressions. I think I would have enjoyed the Digital Short if they were singing about something else. Wondering that myself.

Or just more Kylie in general. They need to have more of her and Alec as well.

This episode was fine, I guess. Still not paying attention to whatever's going on with the research assistants. All the additional steps the sorority sisters supposedly took to make the victims death look like a suicide was dumb. But it was great to see Meg de Lacy again!

We don't know yet. Sir mentioned the name when he talked with his brother a couple episodes ago.

Well, this might be weird after 3 seasons; Luca is being re-cast. I'm guessing the twins had a growth spurt? and Luca's still only supposed to be like eight. https://tvline.com/casting-news/the-cleaning-lady-yancey-arias-season-4-cast-1235375969/ Also casting info on a new character:
