Episode Summary & Review
Summary
Michael sets up his own arrest by the FBI as part of a plot to take down a Boston mobster. Elsewhere, Jesse and Pearce resort to blackmail to gain information on a gun sale, but their tactics don’t go smoothly.
Our Take
A fairly standard caper hour that leans on Michael’s scheme-of-the-week structure, which is fine but feels like filler this late in a season that’s been building toward bigger things. The blackmail subplot with Jesse and Pearce adds some welcome friction, even if it resolves a bit too neatly. Solid, watchable, but you won’t remember much by next week.
