The Thing About Heroes
Ok the conclusion of the 333 storyline - finally. Well, I knew Drew Bedford was a baddie. There was something tickling at the back of my brain about the puzzle pieces, something they hadn’t addressed the episode before. I said that it was that he’d touched them but I knew that wasn’t quite right. I couldn’t put it together but Stella did so that was ok. Honestly she has the worst luck with men. I was yelling at the TV behind you when Mac had just passed that door in the wine cellar. Oh and how long does it take to fly to Chicago? They seemed to go back and forth a bit. Mac there, Flack there, both back, Jimmy to NY. Oh and how did Drew know where Bobby Toole was buried? And why did they have to take Mac’s prints for exclusion? His would be on file surely.
Enough nitpicking, Danny was awesome when he saved the others. I’d like to know whether the stopped train at the 333 station was another empty hijacked one or if it had passengers and was on it’s normal route but that’s about it for that part. Drew is totally obsessed with 333, must be crazy seeing something so traumatic so young. I loved the Train to Nowhere sequence, the song the clips of a train to nowhere. I also liked the end bit with the lasers and everything. When I read it, it was so confusing but watching it, it made sense. The body bit with Bobby O Toole was disgusting, I prefer fresh bodies. That green brown skeletal look of terror is not good. The Chicago detective really rubbed me up the wrong way, I liked it when she apologised but that was about it. I think she should extend some more courtesy to visitors. Oh and Mac as a child does not fit with Mac as an adult. The only characteristic the two share is dark hair.
Pretty good episode really. I’d have to give it an 8/10.
