POI season two's first episode had a lot to like. I agree with some previous comments about not really knowing what to think of Root, other than that she is ruthless aka crazy ruthless. She has taken out a couple names on the small list of people who know about the who is next?
There are a ton of great character moments here including when John sees Fusco bound. These guys are to the point where they just tell volumes with their expressions. Later when Carter and Fusco have to bail out Reece against the big is so full of richness. "I was resting". But in truth, Carter and Fusco really did save his ass in much the same way they helped at the end of S1's first season finale against HR in the parking garage.
And then twice in this episode Reece goes to Carter's apartment without her permission.
This is awkward territory as of course she is still the law and he is a vigilante. His actions to save Taylor in Season 1 and saving her as well, bring this relationship to a pretty strong understanding. I will be interested to see where it goes.
Finch hired Reece for a purpose. Reece turned Fusco through a flurry of coercion. But Carter and Reece there little more interesting.
