First off, no mention of C.D. damnit! They need to talk about her. But you know what would be better? Bringing her back, that's what would be better!

Okay, now...

I enjoyed this episode very much. It was full of lots of action and excitement.

The Bounty Hunter kicked ass. I loved her attitude. She was extremely smart and conniving. Jinny's reaction to her was amusing, and the competition between the two was very entertaining. It was great when she was following Jinny and Magda in the car and Jinny began driving like a maniac, and then when Jinny told her, "Your surveillance technique sucks!" Classic Jinny right there. You have to love her fiery temper. Jinny was obviously very annoyed with her, but by the end of the episode you could see that Jinny was developing some sympathy for Miller. And Magda was just kind of there the entire time.

The entire story of Cap and Jill and Katie Anne is kind of interesting. I enjoyed seeing Cap with her grand daughter, but when Jill came into the picture things were just getting a little too sour. I don't like Jill. And I certainly don't like the fact that she will now be staying with Cap. The last thing we need is our tough Captain having to care for her grandchild and spend time with her "daughter's lesbian ex lover" [I love how Cap summed it up like that.] Why? Because I think it will turn Cap into a softie. She will be worrying about the baby all the time and Jill will be bothering her and now she has all of this excess baggage. Lewis wasn't helping matters either by jumping in with suggestions. And I can't believe that bitch Jill left Amanda with their baby and then had the audacity to come back and demand to care for the child. I don't like what's happening to Cap. She is turning soft. And what about Amanda? I would've liked to see her interaction with her daughter. Nothing seems to work out for Amanda, does it? I don't know, I guess I'll just have to wait and see how this entire Cap/Jill/Katie Anne arrangement works out.

Stacy does the bitch work. She fetches things for people and takes orders. She's like a dog. And she is always there, eavesdropping on conversations and offering her opinions which no one cares to hear. I did find it rather funny how she was keeping score of Jinny and Miller's little battle though. But she is so extremely obnoxious. She doesn't offer anything to the show. However, I noticed when Miller asked Stacy why she wasn't out on the streets helping to fight crime, Stacy got this kind of upset look on her face and quickly dodged the question by changing the subject. Why is that? Did something happen in Stacy's past that has enstilled a fear in her of being on the streets? Or is she just too scared to get out there and fight the fight? Who knows. Personally, I don't give a flying rat's ass. I don't like Stacy and I don't care about her. She is this little mouse who adds nothing to the show. She needs to go away. Far away.

Now, C.D. and Nate... oh wait, scratch that... C.D. is no longer on the show because the writers are stupid *******s. :mad: Raina and Nate... hmm. Well, they didn't do anything. They just helped out with the case, but that's it. We didn't get much from them.

Two episodes down and still no sign of Tracey. :(

Overall, this episode was great. I really enjoyed it.

What do the rest of you think?

Cap's ALWAYS been a softy way deep down. She just hides it with that hard headed exterior of hers. If she hadnt been a softy, she would have never fought for Jinny the way she has. Or any of that other stuff she's done for everyone else. Its because She cares. So yeah, IMO shes always been a softy deep down inside.

Anyways, that storyline was really interesting. And the last scene was really funny. And hey, Kate broke up with Louis. Thank GOD. He deserved it.

I know Cap is a softie deep down. But what I am trying to say is, as of late, she is letting her sensitive side show too much. She used to be all tough exterior, all soft interior. But now? The soft seems to be seeping out of the in and into the out.

Yep thats true. Maybe its because she was deeply affected by pretty much almost losing her life when she had that stroke and had to have that surgery. I dunno...maybe she realises that she's not always gonna be around and that she needs to show everyone how much she cares. :confused: Well its only the second ep of the season, maybe the old Cap will come around sometime in a future ep...who knows?

You are my hero. ;) I don't dislike Raina or anything, I just...liked C.D. better. I hope they do something with Nate soon, give him his own storyline. I love how they replayed his explanation of C.D. in the beginning of the episode and then didn't say anything else about it. Sigh.

Classic Jinny is right! See, now, this episode reminded me why I love Jinny. :) I love how she bugged Miller's car. "You bugged my car. Good one." "Actually, it's a tracker!"

As for Jill...eh, I never liked her either, but what can you do. *shrugs* And Stacy...well, I'll never get totally used to her, I don't think.

I really enjoyed this ep. Well, Jinny and the Bounty anyway. I just asume fast forward through all the other scenes.

Jinny was great this ep. I loved the classic 'Jo' smile when Jinny tracked Miller down and corrected her on it being a bug, but instead a "tracker." The smile was so Jo. Good to see. I would hope they'd find a way to bring Miller back. She was perfect for the episode. I loved all the moments between she and Jinny, and especially that Jinny had sympathy for her since they both had experienced the failed marriages and death of a parent. Plus, the fact that Miller was played, just like Jinny was at times when she was drunk. Good stuff.



I hope Cap sticks up for Jin next week. Lookin' for Jin/Cap moments!

Was please to see they at least put that clip about C.D. at the beginning. At least they are acceptin' she's gone. I wish she'd come back!

Oh yeah, definitely hoping for some good Jin/Cap moments. I am starving for them. I am really looking forward to next week's episode. I want to see what the consequences are of Jinny shooting Sanchez.

That little clip from "Previously on The Division" showing Nate talking about C.D. from last week's episode threw me off. Usually, the "previously on" opening bit is used to tell the viewers that events that happened in previous episodes will be further explored in the currently airing episode. When I saw that, I thought that C.D. would be mentioned again in this episode and we would hear more details, but... nothing.

I know this is pathetic, but I am waiting for C.D. to just come right through The Division doors. Before each episode airs, I say, "I wonder if C.D. will come back in this episode." And after every episode ends, I say, "I wonder if C.D. will be back in next week's episode." I know, it's wishful thinking, but I can't help it. I really am counting down episodes until/if Tracey returns. I really think that the serious lack of C.D. is beginning to drive me insane.

And I noticed the classic Jo smile too. And I thought it was great how Jinny put the tracking device on Miller's car. Further proof that Jinny really knows how to play the game.

Yes, this episode was great, but the show is seriously lacking. It doesn't feel familiar anymore. And I know people say that the feeling comes from all of the new things on the show and that it will take time to adjust to the changes, but that really isn't the case [no pun intended]. The show feels empty. It feels different... a bad kind of different. Do I even need to say why? You all know why. I have said it several times.

Yeah, I thought they would mention C.D. again as well after they showed that opening click. However, I'm hoping they showed it because C.D. will be mentioned, or either reappear soon. I'm still hoping Tracey will return, and if it hadn't been for Amy Jo coming I'd be near about positive she would. With a new cast member already though the cast would be so incredibly crowded, I just don't know. I haven't given up hope yet though.

I said in the other thread- (if you haven't looked) that Miller was played by Amy Pietz who played Annie Spadaro in Caroline in the City...at least i'm like 99% sure(i didn't look at credits)

I thought it was a really good episode and even though I miss CD's presence I thought this episode was hilarious, esp. the competition between the bounty hunter and Jinny, classic Jinny in this episode, I dont really have much to say, but I enjoyed it a lot, and I look forward to seeing next weeks episode with Jinny to see what happens, but I mean we all pretty much know she will be back on the streets again because we have seen episode descriptions for later episodes, but never know, she could be suspended again...

I really really didn't watch this ep. My sisters dragged me in to replay the part where Nate talks indirectly about CD "posing" and telling him that he loves her, only to leave him. I didn't see much else, but I, too, feel that there is this huge hole in the show. Well, no kidding, it's because CD is gone! I keep expecting to see her walk through the door any minute. It's like the show just doesn't seem to get going, with her gone. I miss the CD/Nate banter and humor so much....:(

OMG I loved it, I was so funny with Jinny and the Bounty Hunter. Even Stacey was good, and i didn't care too much for her last week. I liked when Stacey said she was keeping score...Jinny's faces she made were priceless! And when Jinny told Magda that "bugging her car" was for extra bonus points LOL. :D

Oh, of course, that too! Heck, that's half the reason I tuned in for most of season 3.
