If so, watching Jo kill him would be epic… |

Last episode I'm hoping to see Kaitlyn's mole. |

My wife doesn’t know anything about guns or tactics or anything else related to the matter, and even noticed it. She was like “why can’t these guys who are apparently so good hit anyone on this big open field? This is stupid.” lol. |

Their job was to get her out of the country, not kill her. That all I got. Oh, I forgot, I do have one other thing. It is a Hollywood script. Killing her would be a big bummer to the story arc. |

| I just watch it for the gun porn, honestly. Rolling the helo in without the MG being presented first to put down the 3 bad guys annoyed the fuck out of me. |
To those who have gone before us. May we earn what they have given.

doesnt he work in an outside the gov company? |

I did like the ending, Jo telling her husband she would be back when it over. Then saying let's find out who did this and kill them. Yeah the 2 operators who couldn't get the 3 bad guys out on the open, I guess the helicopter taking them out was more dramatic. |

Only thing I can figure is they didn't want to send rounds in the direction of Joe, so they flanked them. |

Two scenes in previous episodes regarding Byron. First was when Joe was giving her opinion on Oleksandra and how she suspected they had captured a fake Yurimov, Byron tells Joe that he is looking into that now and Joe gives him a long stare. The second scene was in episode 5 I believe. Everyone is in the briefing room and going around the table speaking. When Kate begins to speak, Byron brushes her arm to keep her from saying something. It wasn't subtle, Kate looks back at Byron twice and hesitates with her words. There was no follow-up or reasoning given for what Byron was concerned about her saying. |

Basically some local LEO is sent to make contact, understanding only a fraction of the danger the suspect poses, and gets swiftly killed. Cannon fodder, sadly. |

'Aleska' said so in the meeting with the team. The overall goal is to fuck up the status quo, get the mole in (Aleska) and get more money/ support for Ukraine. Kidman and her hubbie are strait players. Dedicated DC types. Believing in the cause (which ever way that goes). Aleska is the new wild card. Their aim was to win trust with the CIA assets to get a new expert in on Russian aims, goals and their TPP. Ukraine fits the unlimited resources because the EU hands over tens of billions with no accountability. As did the US with Biden. So they could source this vast expense of this op in pursuit of a higher goal. Infiltrating CIA/ State Department to further their aims in keeping Ukraine support going. THey found a willing partner in Iran. To create the crisis, and still come out looking good. Katlain was right- the EU clears the books of problem sources in shitcanning the network exposed by Aleska that trashes Russian assets in the US and furthers their global agenda with Ukraine. The Joe snatch was piggybacked on the reaction of US assets trashing the network. The CIA in the series wants to maintain a status quo in Ukraine. To aggravate Russia by depleting their resources, limiting access to warm water ports and to also keep Ukraine locked up in the struggle. They consider Ukraine a serious player on the world stage of espionage. Who built a serious attempt to change the dynamics of politics and gain an entry into US three-letter agencies. And the CIA are not fans of the EU agenda. In this story world. ETA: guess there is another mole to fish out, the one who fed Aleska the info about the Lioness team. |

It will be interesting to see if/how they tie the middle eastern team and exfil plan + Belarus contractors into a Ukrainian sponsored operation. Its been the best season so far. Kyle needs a spinoff series with more spy shit and less estrogen in the story lines. |

Yeah they have brought it up a few times so it will definitely come into play. The mole will be at her place or with her family and be busted and take them hostage. His HD gun will save them. My guess but probably wrong |
