Interesting first episode with Will uncovering the mysterious crossword puzzle which may of cost David his life or was it because of the number 13 because he was superstitious

Yes he just happen to catch cross-word but what is connection between that and man shoot himself in the head?.

Will first day as leader was interesting

The wife on man who shot himself realise more to his death meet the eye when she finds out he change his will 2 days before he dies leaving her a company and secret town house she never knew existed.

The off the record investigation about crosswords leads to Will hire someone who finds 1983 a similar clues were identified. The book code was interesting revelation. . That was very close call with Taxi but thanks to book code he realise people are following him.

We find David created the cross-word code something but we don't know what it is.

Will secretary is a spy that was great

Will discovering that the 1983 crossword clues were published after the bombing of a marine barracks in Beirut and Tom's wife finding out about her dead husbands secret apartment was interesting but it's a good job that will didn't confide in Maggie about the crossword puzzle

Well Will finding a gun in motorcycle seat was interesting but it's a good thing he was taking apart otherwise he wouldn't notice tape on seat but that that combination he's trying crack turn baseball stats was good revelation.

Will better watch his back based on ending that old man who helping him end being killed. The gun is only thing he has but finding out tail was from his boss made him a little curious.

How far will they go?.

It's a shame he striped the motorcycle down when the evidence was in the difference between the photo and motorcycle but what is the significance of the gun and has he put Bancroft's life in danger

yes i think he has indirectly put bancroft life in danger but he's old

Well Will team has tough decision without him and i can't believe it's people like these actually make decision killing people in foreign countries. Not much happen in this episode but it's was slowly building.

This was a slow episode but i felt sorry for the wife having to go thought her husbands blood stained clothes and nice work in finding out the last name of the guy who left the voice message on her husbands phone

i am kind of surprise there actually sent it to the house?

I still don't know what this show is about but Will pushing Tanya to perform was great and look like she was right about George but than suggesting a drug test for her was interesting. Will really figured out Bancroft was going to be in danger so he told him back off but we find out he has decided work on it solo but what was that noise.
Author: codebreaker    Time: 8-24-2010 07:04     Subject: Reply 12#12 bala's post

Will telling Bancroft to stand down was like a sixth sense and may have saved his life and i was wondering about the crossword mystery but we now know it's a go code for something. Tanya may have a drink problem so why did Will want her on the next drug test
Author: codebreaker    Time: 8-30-2010 03:36     Subject: 1x06 Look to the Ant

Trust Maggie to ring Will Just after he discovers the bug in his cell phone but him jumping was funny, Maggie getting drunk with her second choice for company was amusing. Will taking the photo of the guy following him was clever
Author: bala    Time: 8-30-2010 06:54     Subject: Reply 14#14 codebreaker's post

Didn't the guy who warn him about his place being bugged was the guy who planted it in the beginning of the episode-one hell of a trust tactic to get will on his side so he can keep an eye on him.
Author: codebreaker    Time: 9-6-2010 11:08     Subject: 1x07 The Truth Will Out

Katherine realizes that she is not safe in her own home but i wonder if they found what they were looking for and the FBI putting API on lock down while they polygraphed everyone was interesting the way they all reacted
Author: bala    Time: 9-6-2010 11:12     Subject: Reply 16#16 codebreaker's post

Yes it was intresting but what was Will doing with Owl but that CD was great find.
Author: codebreaker    Time: 9-15-2010 09:33     Subject: 1x08 Caught in the Suck

I don't like the way Maggie is being used by Kale to check on Will and the CIA asking Miles and Tanya to watch and see if an Al Queda member is lying or telling the truth was interesting but was surprised that Tanya wasn't sacked after the drug test
Author: bala    Time: 9-15-2010 09:42     Subject: Reply 18#18 codebreaker's post

Yes i agree he exposed Maggie to Will and he fired her but what he did at end was odd destroying that bug
Author: codebreaker    Time: 9-15-2010 09:46     Subject: Reply 19#19 bala's post

I wounder if the guy who posted the photo will be the next one to die

This show is almost confusing as damages
Author: bala    Time: 9-20-2010 07:09     Subject: Episode 9

It was a nice move by Will hiding the document in neighbour bathroom but i am beginning to think she a spy or plant keep an eye on Will because most women would of freaked out if there found a gun in a man bag but not her and than see that man in Will apartment.  So it look like Will is using her for a place to stay I just hope she's not a spy.

I did find it amusing new girl happen to already know Miles. . I did think it was nice of him trying ask her out at the end.

Finally we get to other guys wife no wonder he look tired with what she is like.

That was a clever place to hide the documents in the neighbour bathroom but I'm surprised she put up with his strange behaviour at the start unless as you say she has an ulterior motive
Author: bala    Time: 9-20-2010 11:19     Subject: Reply 23#23 codebreaker's post

i am sure we will find out soon there only another 3 or 4 more episodes?
Author: bala    Time: 9-27-2010 07:09     Subject: In Whom We Trust

Well another interesting instalment look like Will life is on danger but smart move sending the photo to Will's office. Tanya back but forced admin work as result but i have feeling that guy has a crush on her.

I'm not surprised that Maggie was annoyed when she found out that Sophie was left in the hotel room alone but i was glad that Ingram helped her get rid of him
Author: bala    Time: 10-4-2010 08:03     Subject: A Good Day's Work

Nice work Will working out that  API help profit from director who use there studies to make profit from disaster.That was really was worth watching 11 episode just to find that out. Framing Will with a drug problem was smart but Will was lucky getting his gun and killing the guy-if only he had gone that women apartment he would been safe.Great clean up job except they missed a spot.
Author: codebreaker    Time: 10-8-2010 11:21     Subject: Reply 27#27 bala's post

Tanya being asked to rejoin the team to help locate Kateb was nice and about time that one of the hit men had their comeuppance. Will was cruel to the neighbour but he had to do it to keep her safe and the clean up job was great considering i heard an electric saw when Will was in the bathroom

I had a feeling that David's train accident was deliberate but with the conversation at the start they will go to any lengths to keep their secret quiet and now they a photo of Maggie her life is probable in danger but i did like the way she got Will's file from the neighbour but Will was to late to stop the next attack, I'm looking forward to the season final

i can't find this episode?
Author: codebreaker    Time: 10-11-2010 03:19     Subject: Reply 30#30 bala's post

It's only available in mkv
Author: bala    Time: 10-11-2010 05:41     Subject: Reply 29#29 codebreaker's post

Well your right after all of that they couldn't stop it but i love what attack was oil spill is a very clever attack since it didn't injury anybody.. i can't believe only 1 more episode left. Maggie is excellent spy i love how she can lie so convincing you can't believe it but i did like when women ask are you sleeping with Will
Author: bala    Time: 10-18-2010 07:10     Subject: Episode 13

Wow still got one of two surprises left but they really left the ending to our imagination since Spangler received the 4-leaf clover but we assume he's going kill himself . Catherine getting killed because she saw the CD but Will must it when he held it up why didn't he see it?.

Now the question will this show be renewed ?
Author: codebreaker    Time: 10-25-2010 03:37     Subject: Reply 33#33 bala's post

I think the 4-leaf clover is a sign but if he don't commit suicide then he will be killed just like David and i don't think Catherine was killed because of the CD because i don't think anyone else knows about it

I hope this gets renewed with so many unanswered questions
