Sometimes Being a Spy can SUCK!

9.0

By Mariegal19, Dec 09, 2012

This episode was really great.

I loved Annie and Auggie's reunion at the beginning it was super cute and adorable, wow these two can't seem to get their act together it's so frustrating.

Poor Auggie I truly hope he can bounce back, I absolutely hate to see him in such pain! During the whole episode I just wanted to give him the biggest hug!

I hope Annie can get her act 2gether as well!

It was really sad to see our two main characters, being separated from their loved ones, weather it was Auggie or Annie, this episode just emphasized the fact that the Spy Game is incredibly taxing and that when you are a spy nothing is simple or uncomplicated including your personal life

Interesting developments.

I felt that this episode's strength was in the character development side of things, as opposed to the actual cas e investigated. So many interesting developments for both Annie and Auggie, with Parker and Danielle's respective departures.

The case was good - don't get me wrong - and I'm sure it will lead to some great developments in future episodes.

I hope this isn't the last we see of the signature ice-cream eating scenes! :( The spatula was an interesting twist on things! I hope we get to see Danielle again for sure!moreless

Secrets

9.0

How could Parker do this to Auggie ?!

Sentimentalism aside, is it me or is it an American thing that, show after show, characters have a problem when the person they have a relationship with has a secret (like Auggie being a CIA operative)? I'm wondering whether this is something new.

Come on, everybody has secrets so why should it be so big a deal when you are in a relationship? If you were to tell EVERYTHING to the person you love, would it even be bearable? The romantic concept of two people as one seems to gain prevanlence in American society but is it even realistic?moreless

Another solid episode of Covert Affairs here. Not a fan of the Annie and Danielle relationship so I am glad this is the end. The scene was emotional, but good to have it over. It was a strong episode, but a little too dramatic and relationship-based, not necessarily what this show is about nor should be.
