Michael Westen: [voice-over] When faced with a superior force, you can do two things: you can retreat quietly or you can attack with as much fanfare as possible.

User Reviews

waitress

Michael attends an international conference at a hotel in order to get the name of the person that has burned him. Later he takes a job his landlord, Oleg, offers him in exchange for 4 months free rent. This job involves a girl who's witnessed a crime who's now afraid to leave her house thus not being able to work for Oleg. Meanwhile, Fi pressures Mike into getting his deceased dad's car (and a key to his apartment), which is another whole bag of trouble.A pretty decent episode and ,in my mind at least, a marked improvement on the first two episodes of the series. only downside being not much of Bruce Campbell this time out.

My Grade: B+
