In the unlikely event that anybody had forgotten this series' penchant for violence this episode opens with killer Lee murdering Ian's boss. It isn't long before Ian's face appears on television; wanted for the killing. Ian and the others are trying to make sense of an apparently innocuous comment that has left one man dead and another in danger; this leads then to a young hacker who is able to tell them about a flu strain that could be compared to the atomic bomb. While on the run the group also learn who the strange old man is. Meanwhile Jessica is totally unresponsive; desperate to find information she knows Milner authorises an operation which would mean cutting out chunks of her brain
just as it is about to begin Jessica makes her move and manages to escape.
Things move along nicely in this episode as more details are learnt and loyalties are tested. The humour continues to be as dark as the visuals are vivid. As viewers are now used to the show it is harder to be shocked but there are still some surprises to be had. The cast continue to do a fine job; making it possible to believe in the characters and the conspiracy they are caught up in. After the violent opening things calm down a bit; there are some further moments of violence but not to such a degree. Overall another gripping episode; the more I see the more I wonder whether this series will get a 'happy' conclusion!
