I knew that Ryan would try and create division with the gang.
That was obvious. What I didn't think to see was that Ryan would
actually enjoy and get a kick out of rubbing their faces in it
that both dudes were being controlled by Emma, which was in fact
true. The smirk on Ryan's face was priceless. As for the Town
Deputy Chick, I knew she was a follower. Watching the series
thus far, you just have to assume that every single character is
one. The back story involving Agent Debra Parker was pretty
interesting and gives more insight into why she chose the
profession that she is in. But I'm still not convinced that she
isn't a follower herself.

I just realize that this series is 24 in a way. I don't know
why, but watching this episode, I kept picturing Kiefer
Sutherland in the role of Ryan Hardy (Kevin Bacon). And in every
scene that plays out, it exactly how it would unfold for Jack
Bauer. And this was even before the moment when Ryan tortures
the one guy]. Jack would be sooooooo proud!!! As for the rest of
the episode, I always knew that there would be some sort of
Prison break for Joe Carroll, but not THIS soon. I figured it
would be toward the end of the season to use to set up Season 2.
The ending was creepy with Joey being reunited with his Dad
(Joe) with all those followers surrounding him. I find it creepy
that anyone would worship and follow someone like Joe and have
no thoughts of their own. Sheeps!!!

Another very gory scene in this one. It was like watching a
horror flick when the prisoner gnawed his hand off to get to the
cyanide pill under the skin. All that blood on TV. I'm still not
going to get use to the idea that the censor board is becoming
quite comfortable loosening their grip on what can and can't be
shown. Anyway, the ending when Charlie willingly gives himself
up to Joe to be sacrificed was kind of unbelievable. I've always
thought the whole concept of Cults to be an absurd one. I still
can't wrap my head around how people can be so gullible to give
themselves over freely to another man that represents the worst
in humanity.

Well, Jacob is now reunited with Emma as seen at the end of the
episode. He doesn't look happy to see her having just killed
Paul out of mercy. My guess is that Jacob will play nice with
Emma for a while before the guilt really kicks in and he kills
her for abandoning them when she escaped the farm. Another
bloody episode where they keep pushing the envelope of what is
making its way onto broadcast TV. Loved the song they used to
close out the episode. It was fitting.

Interesting twist at the end. So, it looks like one of Ryan's
past love interest was / is a follow of Joe. What remains to be
seen is exactly how Ryan pushed her away. But it was implied
with his 'death curse' that he got her killed. So, if that's the
case then obviously this was part of an elaborate plan set in
motion my Joe to really screw with Ryan's head and get him
believing there is a curse that he can't escape.
Elsewhere, I think that Jacob is going to have a moment of
clarity where his conscious will propel him to save Joey. Of
course it won't be successful, leading to his demise. It has to
happen this way because I can't see him walking around the rest
of the season with anger toward Emma and this not being a
problem with Joe.
