Quantico: Turn

[Prismark10 · 6/10 · 18 July 2016]

In Turn there is a lot happening and it is all very complicated, messy and exciting. I just have no idea where it is all going.

The terrorist gives Alex a pill bottle and tells Alex to swap it with one in Senator Claire Haas' purse. Is Haas being poisoned or is their some other reason for the pill swap? Hannah who has disbelieved Alex's conspiracies actually made the switch.

At Quantico the terrorist cell which Raina infiltrated launches an attack at the academy. Drew kills a terrorist who was about to shoot Liam dead. After the attack Liam who wanted to get rid off Drew now wants him to stay.

The terrorist cell Charlie been involved with was using him to gain intelligence on Quantico. At Miranda's house, one of the terrorists holds Miranda, Raina, and Charlie hostage but Charlie shoots the terrorist and starts to behave erratically. The FBI outside the house are about to take him out so Miranda shoots him instead. A rather messy outcome.

A farce

That's what this episode was, a farce. Totally unbelievable, especially the terrorist attack at Quantico. Seriously, a trainee manages to kill a terrorist with his personal weapon but the trained Marines all get gunned down at the gate? Riiiight!

As for swapping Senator Haas' medicine, that was even more ridiculous! The terrorist told Alex that there was a tracking device in the bottle cap, which would tell the terrorist that she had in fact swapped the pill bottles. Well, duh! Alex, who supposedly is a smart agent, didn't have the smarts to just switch the bottle caps!

The flashbacks, which took a few episodes to get used to, are interesting, especially if the FBI Academy really does operate that way. But since the pilot episode the present day plots and sub plots just keep getting sillier and sillier, and making less and less sense. Oh, and the background 'music' (more like noise) gets progressively worse as well. Then again, I grew up with the music of the 60's so I am biased about that.
