These episodes have really been hitting. This season hasn't stopped, and it keeps going strong. The episode begins really well setting up someone stealing some of the money from the money train, putting our main group at odds with each other, and leaving suspicions for the audience it characters. The way it plays out is pretty great because it reveals some stuff about the characters. The main plot with Trish being stuck as undercover forced to do things to things was once again tense. Also really like how this is partially due to a mistake from Claudette which brings some good drama and set up. I do think more time could be used with the repercussions though, but it was very well handled and added tension throughout the episode. I can see some people not caring that much for smaller side characters, and I get that, but The Shield has developed its cast and world so well that I honestly just picture them as real people, and real people have probably gone through this. This also applies to the tragic use of Tommy's character this episode, and I'm glad he was brought back. This episode ends with impact leaving me uncontrollably rushing to watch the next episode. Great set up for Vic and Claudette, plus leaving us with a little mystery, that I'm sure will become a problem next episode. The tease with Julien's character was a long time coming and I think it's going to bring for some great and tragic drama: Honestly I'm just reviewing these episodes because nobody has, so that's why I didn't go that in depth, but I've just been really enjoying them and think they deserve a bit more recognition. Season 3 is getting close to Season 2 level for me, which I really loved. Assuming it stays this good and ends well it could surpass it.
