A much better episode than E03.

We still don’t know why Martian is hospitalized with bruised face. But we now know why Sami is in London and that’s the reason why she is being followed by a Sudanese Mukhabarat intelligence agent. Martian should come clean with Henry about his new tail.

Henry, Martian and their spy games. They make an interesting duo in identifying a KGB agent among the Belarusians. Martian using a stolen bike metaphor to get the ball rolling in getting information about Coyote’s whereabouts is delicately straightforward.

It’s a bit puzzling why Professor Reza wastes no time and becomes unashamedly predatory with Danny. He only knows her for a short period of time. Anyway, this story has started to gain momentum.

The best line comes from Dr. Blake.

I still call Dr. Blake "BeBe" in my head every time she's on the screen. 

I also wondered how Reza felt he & Danny were so close when all we saw was that single meeting, and had no indication of a time jump, where they could have become more intimately acquainted. 

And really? She didn't have a phone charger?  What was that smirky smile after he let her out of the car?  Simply the realization that she wouldn't be going to Tehran after all, and it wouldn't be her fault for not getting the position?

I like that Brandon & Poppy seem to have hit the reset button.  Nothing like a teenager to normalize and torment a parent at the same time!
