A great show for character development

9.0

"Superb"

By lankylaur, Jan 24, 2009

I loved this episode for the character development and for the Harm and Mac friendship. I love that Mac showed up on the plane to accompany Harm. The dream sequence that Harm had was a little bit bizarre, but he will hopefully work through his issues. I can't believe they STOLE the mig. I figured that Marc was working with Pavloski, but I thought it was disappointing that he is obviously in love with Mac. Harm should've hit him after the book fiasco. A cliff hanger ending with the plane being shot down. All in all a super episode that I really enjoyed.moreless

When Ex-KGB agent contact him,give him a new clue about he's father. That he is in Russia. Harm go after it with all he got like he always does(this time he steel a Russian airforce fighter),lucky for him the Amiral "AJ" sent Mac to help him(well atleast she can speak russian). As the Mr.Webb sayed: "He is like bloodhound,when he got a sense he woun't let it go". With new clue and a eyewitness about Harm's father,there look like that Harm is finally is going to find out the true about He's fater,but in the shadow of all this good news there is also something odd about all these. Who is the one that is trying to help him,who is the true adversaries that is trying to stop he's search. And why they do what they do. This is a very fine episode of JAG,there is soo much mystery. Many Why,how and who. There is also some fine light comedy. Both the "Star" and "Guest Star" perfom a splendid job. Only problem for me is that,the "Mig-29" is a Su-27,and then it was a F-14 with a redstar on it's tail's. Then the attacking "Mig's" are again F-5(the paintjob on them suggest mostlikely "TopGun"). But as usually this is a TV-show.moreless
