The Event: Protect Them From the Truth

Sean is starting to grow on me as a character. He is hacker who turned his recreational attempt to hack the government into a legitimate career, the geek shall inherit the earth. I now understand why NBC paired this show with Chuck!

I would like to know, however, how Sean got in that trunk. The FBI car he was in exploded so that meant he would have had to have stolen an agents key less entry fob, located the car, and climbed into the trunk. That all had to be accomplished while the agent did not realize his key was stolen, otherwise there is no way Sean would have been able to release himself from the trunk at the FBI building.

It would seem to be obvious that Director Sterling is connected to the plot to assassinate the president. However, the evidence is circumstantial at best. Sterling is way too much of a red herring to be the series villain. The Vice President accused Sterling of the plot but, as an elementary student in the 1990’s would say, “he who smelt it, dealt it”. No one has more to gain from the death of a sitting President than the Vice President.

I wish I could say that I did not see the ending coming but I was thinking that the passengers were not dead last week. I understand that I would be a lot cooler if I bothered to mention that in my blog for last week’s episode. Chalk my oversight up to the fact that I have a 4 week old child and I am fortunate enough to have a wonderful wife whom attends to the child while her husband blogs about television.

The 1% seem a bit less menacing considering they did not kill a plane full of people. On the other hand they are not angels sent to save humanity from itself and obviously have an agenda. An agenda they were willing to kill one of their own to keep secret.
