You can’t take back Jack’s life, Harding says. But the police are looking for the wrong man aren’t they? Flashback to Austin waking up to someone deleting his files. He’s bashed in the skull with a statue, his pulse checked – by Harding. And look, it was Harding who hit Courtney from behind with the poker. Marco’s smug – you might want to wash your hands detective – you’ve got a lot of blood on them. Harding wishes he never took the money from Marco – the first murder was an accident, the second a cover up. Yes, and now YOU’RE gonna help me make my dream for Jack and Phyllis come true, Marco smirks.
Next: The Paragon Project – how long have you been planning it? Jack asks Adam (over the phone) …. The rooftop set up for a wedding, Collin tells Devon – you can just walk up to her and say ‘I slept with another woman’ or I can do it. I’m cool either way, Collin’s delighted with himself … Marco threatens Harding; You will handle OUR problem or YOU will be the one who’s erased.
My Thoughts: Thanks for the kind words. I’m still catching up on emails etc … Oh damn you Harding – there go any hopes for your character (and worse, Kevin’s gonna come out of this the hero) That said, what a great show… Adam being behind the Paragon Project really puts Jack in a bad spot; looks like Victor’s just the top villain in a pile of villains … Too bad Marco didn’t hit Abby harder over the head in the park … Victor’s supposedly having everyone in his family followed by guards – yet we never see any. And shouldn’t he already know whether Abby came back with Vikki? (thanks to his ‘sources’?…. Mariah doesn’t camp? Odd since she was brought up in a cult/commune setting …. Given all the crap that goes down at the Abbott cabin (and it’s remoteness) why haven’t they installed a security system, with cameras? .. If Billy’s going to test Vikki, couldn’t he have come up with something more concrete? Like a folder full of glitter? Or that exploding blue ink bank robbers always end up wearing … So Kevin’s gone from being suspended/fired, to ‘running’ the station? How terrifying for the residents of GC…. So Kevin and Mariah have been living under the same roof all this time and they’re not intimate? He’s been friend-zoned so long that it’ll be hard to see anything romantic between them at this point. Last year that would have spelled the end of a character, but we seem to be leaning more towards murder mysteries than romance. Oh hey, I wonder how Mike’s doing with his cancer. Remember? … The Chief of Police was only able to ‘escape’ his house because his wife is working? We can see who wears the pants in the Williams household…. Will you be coming with a gun this time? (this time?) Victor seems to have forgotten that HE’S the one who brought a gun last time. Clever of them to meet at the park – were the police have cameras. If Jack had thought to record the conversation, he’d have Victor’s confession.
