Lots going on in this episode.

Home Secretary is annoying as fuck.

The layers of this shadow organization seem to run very deep.
Makes me wonder if there’s more to it than to have a criminal be set free, just because it seems rather overkill to incur so much more criminal liability by hijacking a plane.
Also makes me wonder if there’s more to leaking it to the press other than putting pressure on the government, perhaps they’re also looking to make out like bandits on the stock market as was hinted.

Getting out of the car out of sight is a typical trope, but didn’t annoy me that much.

Having backup hijackers was something I had expected early on, but they kept that keg of powder dry long enough that I had forgotten about it, so I was blind-sighted by it in a pleasant way.

Wonder what the point was of specifically killing the pilot and locking herself into the cockpit.

Good ad for Apple products 😜.
Can’t get into the Mac, and if you pay close attention you can notice it taking longer for the password to be checked with each attempt just like in real life.

Kid should’ve had an Apple Watch, then he could’ve remotely put his phone on Do Not Disturb (just to be safe) and call/text for help from the closet, instead of that gambit with the landline (also who stores away a landline phone but keeps the service?).

For me personally they manage to stop just short of the point of annoyance with the blue balling.

First with the realization of the blank rounds being negated by switching to live rounds and now with the uprising being foiled by the discovery/backup hijacker.

All in all very enjoyable episode.
