Catch it if you can.

Thanks! I haven't seen s2 (not on Netflix) but I don't mind spoilage, and it'll be nice to see Jasika again. (In fact, watching now on the ABC site.)

Not sure how much of this episode is a retcon of Huck's history, or if it's a case of the people around him only know what he wants them to know (and what he himself hasn't repressed), but I like that they left her guest spot open-ended. Crossing my fingers that she'll be back again at some point.

I liked the ep, although Fitz still grosses me out. (And that without even having seen s2.) Also, I was surprised that Olivia's last words to Huck *weren't* "let's find them [your family]," although that might be something Olivia decides to do quietly on the side so Huck can't say no.

I could definitely see an extended plot line coming out of that if the writers want Jasika back for it.

I don't think I've ever seen Tony Goldwyn in a role where I liked his character. Not sure if it's the way he plays them, or just his choice of roles, but he always creeps me out.

although that might be something Olivia decides to do quietly on the side so Huck can't say no.

I think this is more likely. Her immediate concern was getting Huck back from himself and he's not somebody she would spout platitudes to - that's just not how their relationship works. Plus, I bet she has some idea about how dangerous his past was, so she'd be very cautious about tracking down his family and potentially putting them in danger.

Just read a TVGuide interview with Guillermo Diaz where he's totally fanboying Jasika. (here)

hee, that's cute!

...I have to say that seeing Jasika with the kid made me angry at Fringe all over again for never giving Astrid a social life of any kind. THE SCARS LINGER OKAY.
