Filed Under: Season 1Discussion:
The 2nd episode of the series starts off a bit strange. A funeral for Jaime’s fiance, so apparently the character who invented bionics dies after the first episode. Strange. Also, Jaime seems to have forgotten that she told Bledsoe that she would work for him at the end of the previous episode, since she wants to go back to her life and job of bartending in this one. I guess she had a change of heart.
Anyway, I think the episode played well into the series kick-off. Jaime learns a little more about what she can do and how to use her abilities and she finally gets onboard with working for this clandestine company.
I believe that we will see a larger part of this virus that is released in Paradise and kills all these people, some time later in the season. And I wouldn’t be surprised to find the lonesome girl from the town who was the sole survivor pop up again and donate blood for a cure or something. My theory is that Sarah Corvis had something to do with it as well.
Next week’s episode previews shows Sarah and Jaime both fighting and working together. It should be interesting to find out how that ends up.
