The Unit -- "Chaos Theory" -- 4/26/09

The Unit

Synopsis:

Spoiler:


Jonas and Bob target a terrorist group, but a random incident causes their meticulously planned mission to go awry.



I hope they don't leave us hanging and sort of address what happened with Whiplash in the last episode.

Boy, I don't envy Sam. Jonas is going to kill him real slow.

Although something about it all still seems "off" and I'm not sure if it's that I think Sam was one of them all along or I think he's deep cover.

Sam is as good as dead.

I don't think there is anything off about the whole Sam thing. I think some of you are reading too much into it and overthinking it. Sam is a traitor bottom line and is working with the same organization that planned the Chlorine attack. The guy just murdered 2 people and one was an innocent woman.

I wasn't feeling the whole Lissie/Mac absentee father subplot. This is the 2nd straight episode that Max Martini gets a shitty subplot. I was hoping that Mac would beat the shit out of that predator. I understand what they are trying to do, but these last 2 subplots are so out of place that it sends the show to a screeching halt. Although I do have to say that Abby Brammell is looking really good these days.

Overall, I thought it was a good episode. I'm glad they continued the Whiplash storyline near the end from 2 weeks ago.

I thought about it more after I saw the preview for the next episode.
Spoiler:
I'm almost certain Sam is on a mission for Ryan. I even think Jonas and Bob knew about it and that's why they were looking funny at Bridget in the previous episode. Attempting to rape Bridget seems like kind of a stupid ploy to me, but it seems pretty clear -- given Jonas's reaction to Ryan -- that it was all a set-up. Ryan made it pretty clear he didn't want anyone looking for Sam.

Yeah, I think we all know what the BIG shocker is next week.

And do adult males have to start checking for id's now?
Though she didn't look close to 18, but there are many who look much older than they are. It's the parents responsibility plain and simple. Know where your minor kids are at all times.

Even if it wasn't the most compelling storyline, I wouldn't want to be the dude shacking up w/Mac's daughter. I thought Mac handled it very well.

Ready to see what happens w/Whiplash. It was shocking when he just executed those two people like that---that's some deep cover, if that's what it is...

I just had to laugh when Molly was trying to flag down a train...in the dead of night, below and from the side of the tracks.

That's what I was thinking: "Yes, she has a very good chance of sprinting away from the bad guys."

I was that he was going to put a couple of bullets in her head!

And what's up with her saying 'no', 'no', 'no' over and over again? Did she really think it was going to stop them?

Yeah I was like WTF? You can't flag down a train mid-day from right in front of it either, or at least the last part is no advisable. Did she think the train would just stop be cause someone was waving at them?

No love for Molly...damn! If you were in that situation and that train went by, wouldn't you at least try?
