If Quinn has a miracle comeback, I hope he comes back with some super power that he can use to kill terrorists with. Like shooting laser beams from his eyes.

The only way they kill Quinn off is if the actor opted out of the show. He's way too important for the show to off him.

I liked the way they closed off the whole train tunnel bomb scene early on and was curious as to how they were going to fill in the remainder of the episode. Unfortunately, they didn't do much with the remaining time.

I was with a few others here with regard to the whole staged attack by the professor.

1. a 150 lb weakling takes a gun from the former NFL linebacker;

2. shoots linebacker;

3. shoots Allison in the shoulder with gun contacting shoulder (gun power residue had to be all over her);

4. Allison shoots him from 5 feet away after being shot herself;

5. he falls down into a chair like he's Al Bundy (but for the hand in his pants.).

Yup. Seems like a logical progression to me. I'd take her word for it.

Yeah really dumb.

Quinn was alive but on life support and stable as far as I could tell (the dialogue was atrociously unclear on this). It also appeared that Carrie went into his room to euthanize him, hence her barricading the door and closing the shades. I took the sudden divine burst of light to mean she was changing her mind, thus leaving Quinn's fate open.

if she really euth'ed him, we would have seen it.

I agree.
 
This show went from awesome to mediocre/terrible quick, fast and in a hurry.  I'm surprised it has lasted this long.

 
I think I'm gonna binge watch this again leading up to Christmas.   I'm really looking forward to the new season.  Any hints on Quinn yet?

 
Hey, just starting this show due to the recent marathon.  Eps 1.1 and 1.2 are great but I heard at least one of the seasons is pretty lame.  What's the consensus on each season?

Agreed mostly. 

Season 4 was O.K. for me.

Season 1 was quite possible one of the greatest seasons of premium television I ever watched (Band of Brothers is numero uno).

Season 5 was decent.

Seasons 1 and 2 clearly on another level. 

So far Season 6 has been a nice return to form.

 
Episode one was horrific and depressing (not in the good way) but tonight was VERY good imo.

Max is super great fwiw.

 
It looked like Dar had proof that Carrie was advising the President-Elect, but chose not to show Saul the photos when he said he believed her denial. Is that how you all saw it?

Yeah, that makes you wonder if Dar is protecting Saul, or setting him up, or if he's gonna try and take down Carrie.   I thought the informant scene and the advisor scene was well done also.

What was so good about tonight? The acting at the end when Quinn asked why was pretty good. Feel bad for him.

I found ep1 super boring too, but really enjoyed ep2.  The layers between the kid and FBI informant were fun, although Carrie going to talk to the informant was super predictable.  As much as I thought I'd hate the whole Quinn story, I really liked where it went last night.  They caught me off guard with him having no idea what happened.  I just assumed he was hating life because he knew Carrie disobeyed his wishes (in the last season).

ETA: The whole advising the President Elect could be interesting...

Yeah, that was a very strange episode. Who gave Carrie the recording?   Dar? The president elect (trying to help?). Her chief of staff? That was the best part of the episode really. I thought they were fonna kill of Peter for a minute there.  They never would have rushed that place like that in a real life hostage situation. 

 
I know this is a problematic statement, but I literally laughed out loud at the ridiculousness of Quinn throwing the reporter down the stairs, and then again when he shoots the protester. 

 
Haven't seen last nights but this season has been awful. I'm finding myself not too interested in watching this one.

I love the show, and like the season.  As soon as we finished, I told my wife that last nights episode was the worst (non Dana) episode of the series.  That whole business with child services was laughable on so many levels.

Agreed. It was laughable even before she drunk dialed. 

 
Last weeks episode was really bad.  Surprisingly I thought this weeks was one of the best ever.  It was nice to see Quinn as sharp as ever.  I can't wait to see how it all plays out.

Saul had a pretty good comeback line to Carrie when he said: Coming from someone who effed a guy in a suicide vest, that means a lot
