[Howard Treesong]

I didn't like this ep so much. I hated the overtly political and relentlessly left scene at the border where private citizens policing immigration act like total thugs -- although I did like Syler's speech. We also had only one scene from the ultrahot Nikki. And no Parkman/Nathan.

I'm finding this year that there are too many plot lines that don't get much time during each ep. Dialog as a result is shallow and predictable.
