Snazzy Daisy January 15 Share January 15 Quote Martian buys time with a crystal ball bluff to Langley. Blair and Owen hunt out a White Rabbit. Osman raises the stakes. Henry tasks Dr. Blake with an urgent assessment. Danny crosses the Rubicon. With a green light from Bosko, a trap is sprung.

Snazzy Daisy January 18 Author Share January 18 The penultimate episode. Regarding Leo Kravitsky’s role as their white rabbit, there’s one part that’s not believable. Martian orders Leo to ensure that Coyote’s handover to Colonel Oleg Dimushenko (Intel Director at the Russian Ministry of Defence) takes place at a certain clinic. It’s said that General Volchok is a career maker and Oleg was his protégé. Are we supposed to believe that they aren’t keeping in touch all these years? There’s no need for Leo (who has been overlooked for years in Valhalla) to be their middleman. This part doesn’t make sense to me. Martian is not thinking straight. He’s being impulsive, AGAIN. He’s making a habit of inserting himself (and his ideas) in the meeting with CIA Director, making Bosko and Henry look like fools. He nonchalantly repurposes Felix Op — redeploying the 3 operatives to rescue Coyote and to assassinate General Volchok without knowing its original objective. Quote “It’s a kamikaze mission. What have I done, Henry? I just saved everyone in Felix’s life.” Professor Reza coming clean with Danny about his marital status maybe implying that he is still romantically interested in her. 🤨 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/151433-s01e09-the-rubicon/#findComment-8557353
SunnyBeBe January 19 Share January 19 I found it rather confusing. Hopefully, it’ll come together. What was the scene about Ruiz stripping down to underwear? What’s the recurring scene of Martian in a lab or medical setting? Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/151433-s01e09-the-rubicon/#findComment-8558373
TV Anonymous January 20 Share January 20 Operation FELIX confuses the hell out of me. First off, one Delta and two Ukrainian operators posed as physicians in a clinic for months. How? How did they avoid real patients with real medical problems? Second, I thought their cover was blown in the previous episodes and they had to escape and egress. How were they still 'practicing'? 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/151433-s01e09-the-rubicon/#findComment-8559288

It’s not because of their cover is blown. Felix Op is one of the nine missions that could be compromised due to Coyote's disappearance. He has some knowledge of these missions. Felix Op has been reactivated based on instruction from Langley. In E03 (Hawk From A Handsaw), Langley has discreetly debriefed Bosko on what Felix is and why the mission cannot be aborted. It’s not stated in E03 why Felix Op is of the highest sensitivity. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/151433-s01e09-the-rubicon/#findComment-8559690

Ok so I didn’t imagine that! But after a gunfight they just mosey on back to the clinic like they didn’t kill people? I’m surprised they are just back to “normal.” A lot of stuff in this show throws me, and takes me out of it.
