Pretty cool to see Ted from Better Off Ted as a sleezeball.
Awesome twist with the whole "Make the guy look crazy" scheme.
Veridian Dynamics. Gushots bad. Seeing people alive you saw shot to death...worse.

Yeah, the random punches were great. 
Jose Davis still looks pretty damn good.

Yeah I thought this was a good one too. Loved the ending where they turned the tables on Jay Harrington's character and made him look like a nut job.
Now I'm a little confused about Michael and Fi's relationship. Are they actually a "Couple" now or not really? I mean they have gone to dinner a few times and they seem to really enjoy each others company. However, I don't think I've actually heard them say they are an item.
Yeah unfortunately there are only 2 left (this was episode 7)

Albeit late, I got a friend hooked on the series when we watched this episode together.
I thought this one was great, what with the controlling Eric's environment (with the scaring at the beginning, using the kid's interference as a plus, bring in Sam and Fi, and the whole death staging), not to mention how when the plan didn't work, spinning it another way and making Eric look mental to his brother.
Love the show; sad there are only 2 more episodes before the break. Gonna miss it.

The random punching was great but I'm surprised no one mentioned some classic Sam scenes and lines:
"But when the time comes to rescue some rich older women trapped in a brewery, you better step up"
The Bruce Campbell "getting shot" scene, the slo mo with his sunglasses falling off and the toothpick in his mouth was awesome! And Fi and Sam talking about it afterwards was also great - "nice fall Shakespeare" Even the Michael fall to his knees and then to the ground had just the appropriate amount of cheese. That whole scene was well done from a TV production perspective and from a plot/show perspective.

Despite Donovan's DUI arrest, I couldn't stay away from Burn Notice - I just love the show. Great summer fun. Fi looked great as always, and I loved the shooting scene when the 3 good guys took falls, especially Sam's over-dramatic one. I was afraid that they were going to have to recruit Michael's brother at one point, so I was happy that didn't happen.
