So as the episodes begins, I have to admit, as twisted as The Movement is, they have some pretty cool tools. The paper Cal was using with the guy he was doing the unburdening with was interesting. That’d be a cool thing to have in the right circumstance I am sure. If it actually works the way he says, anyway. While Cal seemed to be coming up empty handed in his search for the FBI informant, Eddie was making leaps and bounds in his support group. And as annoying as Sarah is to me, I was glad to see she is still fighting for the water testing to be done for the town that is being poisoned. Hawk’s passionate display about this very issue seemed to backfire. He was arrested as Sarah was coming home from the lab, thanks to the Dekaan’s. I feel this will either be a catalyst for Sarah to fight harder, or it’s going to get very messy.

I find it quite interesting that Hawk’s first real exposure to the outside world away from Meyerism is in a detention center, surrounded by the very types of people he had be taught to fear becoming. Hopefully this will be an opportunity for him to open up and grow a wider perspective. He has a very pure spirit, but such a warped perception of how things should be. When I heard the charges against Hawk, I wasn’t too surprised this influential family was able to pull off getting him on federal charges. Ms. Dekaan’s threats certainly were not empty!

Can we all take a second to laugh at how blind Cal is? He seriously asked Agent Gaines to be the one to search for the informant. I couldn’t help but chuckle. I’m glad Gaines was able to get the heads up they know the FBI is watching. And how about Summer spilling the beans about seeing her dad? I’m just glad it’s out in the open. That poor kid was having a horrible time keeping that under wraps. At least now she can relax a little bit, unless Sarah catches some heat. Is it mean to say I quite enjoy seeing the dysfunction in Sarah’s family? They try so hard to appear perfect, yet at times it seems they can’t stand each other. While we are talking about dysfunction, we still see Eddie struggling not to fall back into practices he followed in Meyerism, and hating himself for it. But seeing him stand up to Sarah and fighting for Hawk is pretty awesome. I love watching him check Cal too. Those are always some of my favorite moments in the show, if I am being honest. Sean is standing up to Cal even more now a days too which is super exciting to watch. Between Eddie, Sean, Richard, and Kodiak, that’s more than enough people to take Cal down. And they would all get enjoyment out of it too.

Seeing Mary stand up to Cal was something I didn’t expect at all. I always expect Eddie to go all out for his family. So that was no surprise to see him check Ms.Dekaan. But Mary has always been under Cal’s spell, so to see her protect her family can be a game changer for sure. Another game changer, Richard calling out Cal to use that magic paper and unburden. It’s scary backing Cal up in a corner though, and Richard isn’t the biggest guy, so that’s a bit concerning. Being the master manipulator he is, seeing Cal deflect wasn’t shocking in the least. His deflecting could have quite possibly saved Richard’s life. He would be on Cal’s hit list for sure had he uncovered his truths. As truths are always uncovered, Eddie’s scar is exposed and Sarah finds out its source. Lightning. I wonder if she will put the pieces together that it has to do with the light? I also can’t wait to see how she is going to handle this situation with Eddie now she has reopened her heart, and her um, legs, to him once again. They never stopped loving each other after all.

It’s nice to see Hawk defend himself coming from such a passive background. He really is his father’s son after all. I only hope this won’t cause him to get more charges. I have a feeling he and Samuel, his other cellmate, will become close. They are more alike than they appear to be at first glance and I think they’d learn a lot from one another. Perhaps that’s why Hawk needed to be locked up? I guess we will have to see. Agent Gaines seems to be doing well working both sides. He faked a heart issue and planted evidence to find; ruthless. He is not dumb, that’s for sure. I just hope Cal doesn’t go contacting Gaines family as he promised. That would be Gaines’ downfall, I think. Seeing Hawk pissed at being released right before seeing Shelby shunned for the found burner phone was done well. Both are not in control of their leaving, one is angry, the other devastated, probably suicidal. It says quite a lot. They are merely puppets on a string for those in power. It should be interesting to see how both of them cope. With the threat of FBI infiltration now null and void I can’t help but wonder if Richard will press Cal again. And I can’t help but hope Sarah grows a pair and keeps pushing with the water testing. How can she not after seeing that poor, poor, cow?!
