Episode 1 Discussion

Ready to join the discussion!

I liked the ep!! Harry and Ruth scenes had me expectant of what would happen. I was surprised at Malcom outburst, I knew he had to react to Ros but he's always so controlled and calmed, it surprised me.

I don't like CIA agent either, first I thought it was because I don't like her too near to Lucas , at the end when she said that about 'pay back' I got the impression, that through the episode she seemed a little dull, not giving much to the episode. I felt everyone kept the pace of the episode while in her scenes it was slowed down. At least with that line about having her pay back, make her character more interesting.

Loved how Malcom saved the boy, I expected him to die though, I was sure the man would shoot him. It's good he retire, it gives a cue for him to be able to come back and it's actually different, you're used that most of the go by dying some surprising death that by not dying it's also surprising, IMO.

Quote:I'm surprised that she didn't change her first name though"

I think being still Ruth, would give her the sense of being still herself that leads a simple life. With a fake name it would be like impersonating someone else.

Quote:Harry kicking the laptop was fantastic

Yeah, the whole scene was amazing.

Quote:Yes, you would have thought you would torture Harry first anD then if that didn't work, you bring Ruth in

I think they were somewhat in a hurry. They didn't have all that much time, knowing MI5 would be looking for Harry and that he's a strong man, trained for hard situations that even with torture it would have taken long. Last season Harry was under torture and still said nothing. Maybe they thought that by bringing Ruth in from the beginning it would accelerate things up.
