    • Quotes

      Alex: [on phone] Sam, are you okay?

      Sam Matthews: Same old. I owe some guys some money, and now they're punching me.

      [gets punched]

      Sam Matthews: Oh! Now they got it in their heads that me calling you is somehow gonna get 'em paid.

      Alex: Well, why haven't you paid them?

      Mr. Braga: Because he gambled away all his money. And some of mine.

      Alex: Who is this?

      Mr. Braga: You were right not to trust him with your diamonds.

      [tosses the fake diamonds away]

      Mr. Braga: However, if you wish to see him alive again, you will bring the real stones to me in Paris at a place called...

      Alex: Oh, Club Besson? Yeah, I'm already there.

      Braga Thug #1: She's here!

      Alex: [appearing on the hostage scene] You see, I got this little app on my phone called Find My Deadbeat Boyfriend. Let him go or I'll call the police.

    8/10
    penultimate episode
    (added an extra point, because episode DID really get to me, just like in my Iranian colleague's report, the only other reviewer here, so, okay)

    The pay-off is in this episode (see my review of previous installment) and I am not going to criticize. It's goodbye to a long-running character (enough said) and that bit was extremely well done, down to horrific detail, might be very, very upsetting viewing for gentle types. But exactly right.

    Great performance by Lyndsy Fonseca, and there's even a heatwave lingerie scene by Maggie Q to kick off proceedings. A total, almost sweet, lull in their newfound situation hides the nasty truth. Just when everything seems to be nothing but smooth smooth sailing, all earthly hell breaks loose with the nastiest witch this side of damnation.

    And the way it ends... Wow! Invitation to a little war!!
