Having Shepherd coming to Clark's assisted living place was AWESOME! You get to see Shepherd's plan for Sandstorm and Phase II! (Hurd) Shepherd's character is truly sinister and it plays well into the overall flow of the BLINDSPOT, you really don't know who is truly GOOD, for GOOD's sake and why the people that are bad, truly bad trying to change the gov't. Truly is true for the times that we live in America!
