Summary
Officers John Nolan and Celina Juarez are in a race against time to stop the source of an explosive rampage.
Our Take
A tense, fast-moving hour that mostly stays one step ahead of you. Nathan Fillion and Lisseth Chavez make a good pairing under pressure, and the ticking-clock structure keeps things tight without feeling gimmicky. A few of the villain’s decisions don’t hold up if you think about them, but the pacing sweeps you past that. One of the stronger episodes this season and easy to recommend.
