Synopsis:

In Beirut, Kamali wins Scott and Stonebridge's trust by leading them to James Leatherby, an ex-SAS mercenary who's planning to smuggle al-Zuhari into the city. Threatening someone close to Leatherby with exposure and disgrace, Dalton learns the time and place of Leatherby's pickup--but is al-Zuhari the package? Meanwhile, Russian mob boss Arkady Ulyanov vows revenge on the men who killed his son in Colombia--and enlists an irresistible siren to locate one of them.

Not my favorite episode this season. I guess they needed to slow things down after the mayhem of the 1st 2 episodes.

:thumbsup: to Scott getting laid. 3 for 3. Once that Russian dancer gave Scott her number, I had a feeling they would hook up.

Liked the introduction to Dougray Scott's Leatherby. Awesome that he's a badass terrorist working with Al Zahari.

-eek- at the reveal that he's some kind of sicko gay sadist. Didn't need to see him bang that dude. Why did he kill that waiter?

:lol: at Scott and Stonebridge driving through that minefield. They have great interactions with each other.

I have a sneaking suspicion that they are setting up Dalton to be killed off. She's really out of control, butting heads with Locke and now she kidnaps that woman.

And really? No episode next week.

Could've done without the man on man action. I think he killed the waiter because it was implied that his boy toy and the waiter were humping.

The chick Scott hooked up with had his picture. I assume she is tied to those Russians we saw briefly.

The mine driving was funny.

I don't see how Dalton won't be killed off. Makes the most sense.

Anyone get the feeling that the woman is al zahari. Nobody would expect a woman leader of a terrorist cell.

Is there going to be any follow to that scene at the landing strip?

Inside of the building where Stonebridge killed that guard there seemed to be something leaking out of those artillery shells. Chemical warheads?

Re: Strike Back -- "Episode 23" -- 8/23/13
 

I think that will be addressed later on. Probably part of Al Zahari's bigger plan.

Re: Strike Back -- "Episode 23" -- 8/23/13
 

They showed Al Zahari at the end of the last episode addressing the world (like Bin Laden) in a video, didn't they?

Re: Strike Back -- "Episode 23" -- 8/23/13
 

He the thought his boy toy was cheating with the waiter. And because he can.

Re: Strike Back -- "Episode 23" -- 8/23/13
 

Well... they could go 'ironman 3' on us.

Re: Strike Back -- "Episode 23" -- 8/23/13
 

Yes but that could just be a ruse. Using another guy on camera instead the actual leader of the terrorist cell. I doubt it will happen like I said, but I think it would be a great twist.

Re: Strike Back -- "Episode 23" -- 8/23/13
 

Yeah, I just assumed everyone knew what he looked like, that it wasn't a mystery. But who knows.

Re: Strike Back -- "Episode 23" -- 8/23/13
 

No new episode tonight.

Just got caught up after going through the UK season, 1st (again), 2nd (again), and the first 3 eps.

UK season was great though with some faults.

The 1st Season was even better the second time and something I want to revisit again as it was pretty much 5 fantastic hour and a half movies.

The 2nd Season was much worse the second time (though still a good season compared to other shows). I can't imagine watching this season again.

And these first 3 have been fantastic and feel much more like the 1st season.

Can't wait for more! By far the best action series on television and its not even close.
