Who needs a key when you have an ax? Need to remember that next time I lock myself out of the house.

Colleen - LOL.

The British assistant - why are we seeing so many women lately who have a resemblance to ballerina girl? Another dance connection back to TBL this season.

lara1 · 3/16/2017 9:39 pm

OMG, are we going to find out that Tom isn't christopher?

lara1 · 3/16/2017 9:41 pm

Wow. now that's a mystery I have to think about.....

Big Badd Bazzer · 3/16/2017 9:41 pm

Trevor is seeing someone else - and its NOT Scottie!

Lovely British assistant gonna have some splain' to do

lara1 · 3/16/2017 9:42 pm

....or maybe tom is christopher but he isn't jacob......

OR someone got to the Phelps and they gave Scottie a fake photo of someone else.....

Big Badd Bazzer · 3/16/2017 9:42 pm

Why is Nez snifflin? OK, I think I know!

Big Badd Bazzer · 3/16/2017 9:44 pm

Lovely U.K. assistant played "Brooks" on two episodes of Person of Interest. Didn't have an English accent back then!

BBB - maybe Nez is allergic to cats? Oh wait, wrong show...

I think she's allergic to coke deprivation if the truth be told. Can't we have one clean redemption???

My guess is Howard got to the Phelps first; thus the photo of 'Jacob' with the birth mark.

This ep was a dropdown C+ to me. Going too many directions at once. Heel villain not clearly identified. Bryan was a good guy - hope we see him again! The adoption angle isn't unraveling properly!

lara1 · 3/16/2017 10:02 pm

Yes, this episode was a bit lackluster. Not as tightly woven together/scripted.

lara1 · 3/16/2017 10:03 pm

I'm actually glad that the Phelps thing was just the guy who worked for Howard setting it up with the fake couple. I don't think I could take another child switch/double identity! LOL

Good points BBB - seems like Redemption is rushing to develop all the characters all at once - which I guess makes sense because there are only 8 episodes.

Tatiana · 3/16/2017 10:08 pm

BBB - yeah, this was not the most entertaining episode. But part of it is we're still establishing who's who and what's what. That's hard to do for an 8 week series that's a spinoff. The odds are against Redemption being renewed. But there were some good scenes.

Oh my goodness, that scene with Solomon as the plumber was hilarious!! It was a great build up leaving us the viewers trying to figure out how Solomon and Tom would ever get out of such a tight situation. And it made humor out of a serious issue and I think we can all welcome that!

lara1 · 3/16/2017 10:11 pm

Tatiana - agree that was a good scene. who knew that Ryan and Edi could do comedy so well?!!! LOL

Yes, that was a funny scene, but as a whole, this episode was a two-granny square one, which is probably a C/C+ to use BBB's grade scale. For a really boring episode, I can crochet three granny squares in an hour.

I normally sew, but a friend asked me to finish her late mother's unfinished afghan, so shows will be judged by how many granny squares I can finish. There's seventeen more squares to go, but I only have time to work on it two nights a week.
