So what do you think red's motive is for surrendering to help the FBI?

He has several motives:
To continue his work as a criminal.
Achieving immunity for his continual work with the FBI
Getting to spend time with Keen(whoever she may be to him).
Furthering her career as an agent in the process.

Wtf?!?! Spoiler alert Brah!


It is pretty painfully obvious.

This is only a theory at this point. Could still be an uncle or old friend of her dad.

I'm also wondering this myself.

He left his wife and kid when the kid was young. Her dad left when she was young.

2 options. It's so obvious that's its sad writing. Or he's not and its an over the top attempt at fooling the audience, hence sad writing. Either way poorly done IMO

Otherwise the show is solid.

So basically if you're wrong about it being her father it's sad writing but if it is her father it's still sad writing. Either way, if you're wrong you're off the hook? LOL

Oh it's definitely her father, I'm never wrong. Lol Seriously I just think that element to the show has been poorly conceived either way. They just kinda threw it out there in the first episode. So if it is her father it's painfully obvious, if it isn't then they tried to hard to make us think it is. A slower development would have been better than, hey look at all these parallels between the two main characters.

The only line in the show thus far that is convincing is in the 3rd episode(Wujing) where he said, "I will do anything I have to to keep you alive".

Well the guy that kidnapped the FBI agent creeped the hell out of me, what are those marks on his body, judging by reds words what happens to the killer is very brutal like the brutal of Law Abiding Citizen kind of stuff.

I think Keen's husband creeped me out more in this episode than the stewmaker did.

Whoever chooses the music for the show is genius too by the way.

Keen's husband has discovered that she has gotten into his stash of spy gear. It will be interesting as to what happens from here.

probably into self-torture

also, it took me a minute, but the Stewmaker was played by the same actor who played the crazy reverend in "Hell On Wheels"

I'm still trying to figure out who the team that set up the cameras is working. Also I didn't make it out clearly but the classified report she got, did it say her husband was trying to defect?

I didn't catch that, if it did. As for as the camera's I thought it was probably someone associated or was associated with her husband.

Not trying to be a negavol but my only complaint is that some of the CGI is really unnecessary. This show is good enough without it. (Examples are the car chase scenes and agent keen inside; helicopter flying over DC; etc). The FBI boss - Cooper is also a complete pushover. No backbone at all.

Big fan of Spader and the guy who plays agent Kessler, who is Mike from Homeland.

Last night's episode jumped around too much. Also, if the husband really isn't involved, who are the guys watching the cameras? Seemed pretty clear it isn't Red's people.

Spader a couple episodes back mentioned something about finding out who his competitor was, or something to that effect. I'm guessing they work for him.
