It really is.

I'm so done with Nick at this point. That disappoints me.

Same here. That is one lousy husband. Now I don't feel bad for Emily using him for sex and then escaping afterwards.

She shot him!
Not mad at her for that. That jerk saying to her face she's hurting her son - and then telling her he's done believing in her - wtf, dude!!

Love Papa Byrne. Warren is a hero!

Flynn - omg. That poor kid - having to live through that water torture Brave boy, indeed - not wanting his mom to suffer so he takes it.

This show, seriously

The ending I can see why Emily shot Nick, it was her only option to save Flynn I still can't believe Nick actually thinks Emily's behind it all.

Poor Flynn, having to go through that so Alice wouldn't have to

Oh, of course the flashback - I love that we got to see how they met.

Now I only wanna see how he met Alice - I don't think we'll learn, though. Well, who knows

Also, Charles is not the one who holds Alice and Flynn - then who is?! Another kid from the orphanage? Or a lunatic who read Ling's study and wanted to continue it?

This show is SO GOOD!

I was hoping Emily wouldn't shoot Nick, but I knew it wasn't going to go that way. I totally understand why she did it, though.

Nick: I can hardly pay attention to his scenes now because I despise him so much. He made me angry the whole episode.

Flynn: OMG! He goes through the water torture, so Alice wouldn't have to. Patrick really impressed me this episode (as he has the whole series).

Warren: I just love him more and more! He's my second favourite character!

Jack: I really love him now. He offered to help on his own accord was a major shift in his character.

Charles: That was very interesting. So, he's not involved? I didn't think so with the way this series has been going. SO, who is the one behind the mask?

I am sooo over Nick. I'm so glad that Emily used him, makes me think that deep down she knew it wouldn't last. Poor Alice and Emily, Nick isn't good for either of them. I'm all for them taking Flynn away and raising him together with him and his two moms .

I loved the flashbacks, it's nice to see Emily's life before she was kept from it.

I LOVE Warren! Other than Flynn and Emily he's my favorite, every time he's on his scenes are on point and he's almost like our voices to Nick .

Flynn protecting Alice by being tortured was heartbreaking yet to me shows that he is his mothers son as I think that would be a huge Emily move (since we now know how Nick thinks and acts).

I literally laughed out loud at Emily shooting Nick. He deserved it.

I love Jack being there for Emily. He must be a love to hate and hate to love type of character. Still a bit skeptical about him though. I probably will be until I know who did it and why lol.

I love how we're kept on our toes week after week. We're down to two episodes and we really still have no idea who the mastermind is behind Emily's kidnapping. Talk about suspense. I wonder if we won't find out until last minute on episode 10

I know, we have clue who might be the kidnapper, or who has Alice and Flynn now. I also wonder - will Alice maybe lose the baby after that ordeal? Aw, man, no

I hope not. She may not be a favorite of mine but she doesn't deserve that especially since her whole goal has been to put Flynn first.

Wow, so intense.

Ugh, Nick. I really thought he would be one of my favourites, sadly he's my least. Warren was right, Emily is always one step ahead of him both back then and now.

I loved Jack stepping up for Emily, I thought after being arrested he may revert back to drinking and resentment but I'm so glad he didn't. And that scene with Warren and Jack where Warren told him he was proud of him, that's huge for Jack I'm glad that the Byrne's have Emily's back.

Poor Flynn and Alice, and Flynn was so brave. I'm guessing Alice must have been drugged.

Also why hasn't someone from the police or FBI thought to look for Alice and Flynn at the place where they found Emily? Seriously, if they think she's involved then surely it's the first place to look But no, they're too busy hunting Emily

Loved the scene where Emily gave that guy candy for his robe

And yeah, I'm not mad that she shot Nick. He needed to hear her out at least but he wouldn't.

Eep, where is this going?
