Episode Summary & Review
Summary
Luke and Misty take their group into hiding at a Rand facility under construction. While they try to negotiate an immunity deal for Mariah, Bushmaster learns where they are thanks to his snitch in the department.
Our Take
This is mostly a table-setting episode, with a lot of tense conversations in one location and not much action to break them up. The negotiation scenes have real friction thanks to Alfre Woodard and the chemistry between the leads, but the pacing drags in the middle stretch. Worth watching for the character work, just don’t expect the season’s big swings here.
