Election rigging, THIS will be insane.
Thought something was odd with Mini. For a "goon" in that situation, "snitching" seemed like a suicidal move. Makes sense now why link let Reese go. Anything to get the boss back.
Best sense was still Finch and Elias. Giving a hint, "..a war we cannot afford to lose". Good stuff

Didn't even think about this, now I feel dumb.
Wonder how long the Brotherhood will stick around and what their plans are. After the middle of season 3 ending everything with HR and the Russians it felt like we were done with criminal organizations and were moving fully into weird shadow government conspiracy land. Feels like a weird step back, hopefully their story goes into an interesting direction.

Wow @ that preview

I haven't watched the preview for next week yet... might go in blind based on these reactions.
I'm hitting the bed in a minute, so truncated thoughts:
Great episode, pretty heartwarming end. Shaw's baller.
I called the agent lady betraying them and Mini being the Big Boss of the Brotherhood early on. Taking a page out of Elias' playbook, I think. The reveal was done really well nonetheless. The way that Mini becomes Dominic at the end, good stuff.
LOL @ that picture.

I'll admit I did not see that part coming, but the whole DEA agent turning out to be the mole herself was quite obvious
Lol I had the same thought. I actually had to rewind to make sure I saw it right.
just made me stop eating twizzlers

Man Elias continues to be my favorite character after Reese, even while just riding the subway.

Probably didn't help that Elias pointed out his own introduction in the same episode.

I am only near the end of S2 but this show is awesome.
S1 was a bit too procedural so it was refreshing to see them go with longer story arcs in S2 along side the number of the week stuff.
Also great use of licenced music whenever they decide to have some. The Who's "Eminence Front" and The Kills "The future starts slow" being stand outs so far for me.

It was about damn time. Pretty much everyone says "Are they on Netflix?" when we mention the series. They better get the entire series too and not just S1. EDIT: Duh, it includes S1-S3.
I think this is less about smart and more about how much he is willing to believe. For all he knows Finch could be a mage with a magic ball or some kind of psychic. But maybe Vigiliance Northern Lights leak from last season gave him the right idea.

AV Club raises a good point:
Feels like this episode and the one with Claire, that evil is trying to take the POIs to their side. With Dominic doing his whole 'hearts and minds' thing at the end of the episode. Shaw being Shaw was pretty great. I do really like Det. Riley. He's great. And loved Fusco coming to the rescue once again, though I feel like it's a shame we got cheated outta a big AK-47 shootout.
I liked the kid playing the brother, he was good.

The kid actor was good this episode, I really liked him.
Also was sort of expecting Mini to be Dominic, but wasn't sure if they were gonna pull an Elias again. Then again, that happened way back in season 1, so. I also like that the Brotherhood is kind of a street-level foe for the team to deal with as their "covers" while their real identities are after Decima, the big fish.

Oh my. POI just trolled Nintendo. Hard
Little Girl enters apartment: "Hey that's the new Wii!"
Moments later, Little Girl points to an adults cellphone: "Do you have minecraft on that?"
Amazing

I'd like to think the reason there was a murder in the apartment was because someone got a WiiU, or they had no games to play.
This show is so good, it's a shame the entirety of GAF isn't flocking to this thread.
POI does a good job presenting characters who aren't what they seem: Elias, Control, and just this episode Lennox and Dominic. I can sometimes figure it out before they're revealed but only just moments before.

1) It's not on Netflix in the US yet
2) b-b-b-b-b-but it's on CBS and not prestige television! it's probably just a cop drama!

Scream about it to the high heavens.
Though hopefully with Netflix we get more fans coming here.

Well, in the book, the invisibility process is irreversible.
Or maybe the title itself is a hint. Only way to survive is to be invisible
Just started watching this show (on several recommendations) and the first couple of episodes have been really rough. I can tell there's potential there but the people of interest aren't all that interesting (ironically) and Reese has this incredibly goofy Batman voice that makes me giggle every time he opens his mouth. Emerson is great as always but if it's just going to be your standard CBS procedural, I won't be able to stick with it out of boredom. Does it get more ambitious?

The first few episodes are certainly the worst and many people give up. But around episode 7 the show switches into a hybrid procedural/serial mode and that's when it gets good.
Around episode 7 the show becomes a procedural/serial with multiple arcs that get updated almost every episode

The first two seasons have been on UK Netflix for ages. In fact all of season 2 went on there before it had finished airing on British TV.
One review (correctly, I think) pointed out that it probably should have been Ralph Ellison's Invisible Man instead of Wells'.
I really want to know more about Decima after the senator mentioned that the company was dismantled as a business entity after season three.
I agree. I also still think that there is someone above Greer, he may seem to be the head of operations, save for Samaritan who he serves apparently voluntarily, but I still got the feeling that there is somebody... or something behind Greer.
If you liked episode 4 - especially with the ambiguous ending (which is pretty risky to do so early on) - you'll probably enjoy the rest.
Watched episodes 5-7 last night. The first two were okay if pretty by the numbers but as others pointed out, 7 promises bigger things. Gonna keep watching.
I feel like the first 7 or so kinda flesh out the procedural format with enough to give people a good idea with what the show can offer. Moving on from that episode there is plenty of serial elements coming to the fore in the next three episodes alone that I think you'll probably enjoy.

I feel like they do this character swerve a lot in this show , we should have seen that mini reveal coming
A lot is an understatement. Every major bad guy in the show save Greer has been introduced through this method. I wasn't sure if they would do it this time simply because I was thinking "surely they won't introduce this bad guy in the same way, right!?!?!"
You would think they would not use the same trick over and over, but, nope, POI gives 0 fucks.
