This is one of the best Person of Interests because of Ms. Turco. First because she's truly a beautiful woman and a great actress. She brings out a side of Mr. Reese that is not seen often - his emotional side.
Very much a must see ep.

This episode was insane. The POI this week was intense as a fixer and she definitely kicked some ass. I think she'll be back at a future episode to help Reese/Finch.
The most important thing about this episode (to me at least) was the intense buildup of the Elias M story. I won't say much because f spoilers, but it gets intense! We'll definitely find out eventually who he is and he'll definitely be a big part of the show.
An mundane episode of this season ,not much to ffer except for the partial relevation of Elias M's identity.
Positives- The ep starts outright with the person of interest ,thereby not wasting time between Finch and Reese on finding the PoI which was the norm until the previous episodes .
The relationship between Reese and Zoe.
Many praised the romance between them but I felt it too awkward. But I felt there was a mutual understanding between them in this episode which could be seen from Reese's appreciation of her.
Negatives- The ending - It could have been better chalked out as it felt too predictable (Not refering the Carter scene). Reese giving the CFO his own Pharma pill was tad too shabby.
Carter and the plot- This Tom and Jerry between Reese and Carter is just getting annoying. Nothing much happens apart from getting a planted clue (and now she is behind Elias who has no connection whatsoever to the crux of the series).
Rating 6/ 10.

... maybe it will improve now that the showrunners are introducing a multi-episodal plot arc. But the acting is still halting and the action scenes are just plain silly. Keep in mind that this series was running well after we got to know Jack Bauer and CTU In "24"so it's not like the Nolan brother's didn't know what we were expecting. Should I keep binging this, or look for something else?
Finch tells Reese that the machine gave the number of the mysterious Zoe Morgan, who lives in an expensive apartment without any income. Reese poses of her chauffeur and clones her telephone. She first meets the corrupt Lieutenant Allan Gilmore in a party and gives a weapon used in a crime. Soon Reese learns that she is a fixer. When she meets the CEO of the Virtanen Pharmaceuticals, Mark Lawson, she is assigned to retrieve a flash drive with the recording of Mark Lawson with his mistress Dana Miller from a snoopy journalist. When Zoe delivers the flash drive to Mark's right hand Samuel Douglas, she is attacked by Mark's men and Reese saves her. Soon, Reese and Finch learn that Virtanen Pharmaceuticals' results in the submitted report to the FDA are fake for a new medicine. Now the executive from the Virtanen Pharmaceuticals is trying to erase any evidence of the manipulation of his laboratory.
"The Fix" is another excellent episode of "Person of Interest", where Reese finds an opponent of his level. It is great to see Paige Turco, after "American Gothic" in the role of an efficient fixer. The episode is full of action, with a great performances and chemistry of Jm Caviezel and Paige Turco. Their team-up is excellent. My vote is nine.

Harold Finch: You know before we, before I found you, the numbers haunted me. I never felt so helpless in my entire life. I know I can't get justice for all of them, but the possibility of having just one...
