Emily Thrace September 29, 2015 Author Share September 29, 2015 Okay so there was no episode post so I created one. Sigh I like this show but it needs to stay away from serious topics. I like my crap shack with extra cheese not war crimes. It just makes me sad that catching actual war criminals isn't that easy. If the show is going to go after war criminals make it Nazi's they can be cartoony and fit in with the rest of the show. Not that the guy playing the war criminal tonight didn't try for it. 4 Link to comment

I decided to watch this live because I thought it would be fluffy. 1 Link to comment

Ms Lark September 29, 2015 Share September 29, 2015 I think I'd have enjoyed this ep more if I didn't find Sonia (Cabe's orphan) so irritating. I'm not sure if it was the character, the lousy actress, or both, but I hope we don't see her again. I'm sure that won't be the case, given her bond to Cabe. Let's get back to the fluff. 5 Link to comment

UncleChuck September 29, 2015 Share September 29, 2015 Every news report I have seen coming out of Cuba pushes the fact that there are NO new cars on the island. Havana streets are filled with American cars from the 50s and early 60s that are magically kept running. Yet when our scooby gang was on the run, they raced through streets populated by new(er) cars and vans and the police seemed to have brand new vehicles. ??? Then they groused about the entire country being stuck in 1950s technology and the electric box on that pole was filled with old wires and fuses...really old, old school... So how did that bank have such a modern high-tech security system requiring a fingerprint scan? And why was the bank in such a poor country filled with numerous flat-screen tvs? And why did every bank clerk toiling in such a backward country with no technology have a computer with flat screen monitor? Fluff TV does not have to be accurate, but the writers and set dressers should at least make an effort to make Havana NOT look like Miami. 3 Link to comment
Gregg247 September 29, 2015 Share September 29, 2015 Cabe said he noticed this little girl because, in spite of all the death and destruction, she was still smiling. Why didn't she crack a smile during the episode, then? Presumably, her life since meeting Cabe has been much better, but she seemed so surly and bitter. I started to wonder if maybe the "nice" Italian family who adopted her had treated her badly, and she was secretly enraged at Cabe for placing her in that predicament and then never, ever checking in on her afterward. 2 Link to comment

Why didn't she crack a smile during the episode, then? I originally thought there was going to be a twist where she was going to betray them and that she was lying about who she was. Turns out she was just an annoying plot device to get them there and nothing more. 2 Link to comment
Texasmom1970 September 30, 2015 Share September 30, 2015 Loved Sylvester screaming like a little girl when Cabe grabbed him and they jumped out of the plane! Rolled my eyes so hard at Page's wet t-shirt, slow motion, coming out of the ocean moment while Walter stared. Think I strained an eye socket! 4 Link to comment

thuganomics85 September 30, 2015 Share September 30, 2015 Got excited when I saw Kevin Weisman's name in the credits, only for him to show up only for a few seconds at the end. There has to be more to this. You don't cast someone like him, who is known for playing geeky, "genius" characters, and just have him be a fellow trash picker. There has to be something going on. I swear, it feels like Izabella Miko is suddenly appearing in stuff I watch. After The Cape got canceled in 2011, she kind of fell off the face of the Earth, but in this past year, I've seen her in Blue Bloods, Chicago Fire, and now this. Sadly, even though she's hot, I think her best performance was on Deadwood which was like, twenty years ago. Overall, bored with this episode. There is no way any of them wasn't going to get caught and imprisoned in Cuba. There was no way that the war criminal wasn't going to get taken down. And, of course, this mission will somehow make all the characters grow and figure out the "problems" that were plaguing them at the beginning. I get that this goes with the territory, and I actually don't mind it if everyone else works, but in this case, it didn't, so I just felt like it the entire thing was on autopilot. 1 Link to comment

Beezella October 4, 2015 Share October 4, 2015 Why would the war criminal even keep the ledger in the safety deposit box? I would think there would be a possibility of it being seized as evidence. Why wouldn't he have destroyed it? I did enjoy Happy when the banker and customer walked into the safety deposit box room, "Hi!" Have a sausage." Link to comment
