Storyline

The first act following the Machine and Samaritan's cold war summit, which ended in a standoff, is that Samaritan starts to take the market down by crashing the New York Stock Exchange. Samaritan's plan entails a few small rebounds to prevent the fail-safe system from kicking in. Reese, Finch, Root and Fusco know that the best way to combat this take down is not to deal with anything on the market floor, where the minority of trades are actually made, but to deal with the server in the Exchange's basement, the server which processes the vast majority of trades. Shaw is not with them as she still needs to hide from Samaritan's cameras. As such, Shaw has her own task off site. Both the foursome and Shaw's tasks end up not being as straightforward as they would have liked, each placed in a precariously life threatening situation.

Quotes

Harold Finch: On chess. "It's a useful mental exercise. Through the years, many thinkers have been fascinated by it. But I don't enjoy playing... Because it was a game that was born during a brutal age when life counted for little. Everyone believed that some people were worth more than others. Kings. Pawns. I don't think that anyone is worth more than anyone else... Chess is just a game. Real people are not pieces. You can't assign more value to some of them and not others. Not to me. Not to anyone.

Oh my god, was this episode even real??
7 January 2015 | by (Greece) – See all my reviews

All I could think about at the end of the episode was that it would definitely be the highest rated one ever. I was right. Everything about it was totally amazing, despite the turn of events, it was the one episode I will remember every detail of forever! Absolutely fantastic! The plausible scenarios were a total delight and the flashbacks gave a new perspective to Harold's relationship with the Machine and the effect he had on its development. The directing was also one of a kind, the slow motion captivating and so totally memorable, especially at the final scene. Even if they repeated the same lines for about 8 times, not only wasn't it boring, but it also increased our interest and agony! Also, love seeing a new side of Shaw and the train situation was also amazing to watch! I have high hopes for the next episode, hope we don't get disappointed!
