Great episode

9.0

By Varunn16, Dec 20, 2012

I really liked this episode very much. Even though the plot was a bit complex and I found it hard to catch up to the new information being revealed every minute, the main plot was quite simple. A guy got fired, and he and his girlfriend wanted to take justice from his employer who also laundered money in huge amounts. They wanted justice for the people that the employer took the money from and also the girlfriend wanted justice for her brother.

This episode, as someone rightly pointed out, lacked the emotional punch. I gave it 8.5-9 rating due to this. Yet, this episode was fast-paced, intense, and the ending was just superb! The music at the end was perfect for that scene. I just wished that John would have smiled before the screen went to black.

For a minute, I actually thought that the FBI caught Reese but thank god that they didn't! Is Bleecher working with HR? That was a big twist. I wonder how Fusco was able to clone Bleecher's phone. Did Finch give him the software required for cloning a phone?

Can't wait for 2PIR!!moreless

Omg !!!

I felt a knot in my stomach when the final scene was taking place (I won't spoil here but it will shock you when you see it), it was so intense and dramatic and heart-rending... But also so necessary. A dramatic punch in the gut like this was exactly what we needed, perfect timing and I'm glad my suspicions got confirmed, after a series of relatively "lightweight" episodes, that we were only getting a short break before something big hit us...

So many unanswered questions, so many aspects of each character's personality revealed... Will Carter put her ambition before her morals and the law before doing the right thing? Will her new position influence her relationship with Reese and the team? Will Fusco get out of the HR mess alone or will he enlist Reese's help? Does he really care about Carter's new date Beecher or is he working an angle? Will Harold be exposed? And finally... the big questionmark, what will happen to Reese? Unforgettable moment where he said goodbye to Harold...

I absolutely can't wait for the next epi!!!moreless

'Person of Interest' rockss again, Shadow Box is definitely on my top 3 of the season so far. The last scene prove how far the show can go to surpise the audiences. Amazing moments, great action, excellent twist and can't wait to see the rest of this solid season.

Top 3 so far:

1 - Shadow Box

2 - The Contingency

3 - Bury The Lede

  EDIT SHARE
- Fusco: You crossed a line when you made that call to Carter. Pointing her towards me in the Davidson murder.
  Simmons: What line is that?
  Fusco: The line where I don't give a crap anymore. So watch your back.

- Finch: Why's she doing this? For Shayn?
  Reese: Yes. And her brother. She still feels a debt. The dead have a power like that, as you know.
