Covert Affairs Season 1-5 General Discussion Thread (Spoilers)

Episode 4: No Quarter



I thought this was a great episode, It was great improvisation of Annie to move the bad guy into position so that he got knocked down by one of those Airport Buggy's, I loved the constant bickering that took place between Joan & Arthur Campbell's characters, my favourite scenes were of Auggie being given a lie detector test, I would not mind seeing Oded Fehr's character Eyal making another appearance, it might only be me but I can honestly see Auggie getting a field mission before this season ends.   

I have to admit the best thing about this episode is the continuing interaction that goes on between Annie & Auggie's characters.

Episode 5: In The Light



This was a pretty good episode, I like how we get the occasional flashback to Annie & Ben Mercer, It might only be me but I get the feeling that Ben might have had some sort of connection to the CIA in his past, I was impressed by how Annie got Christopher McAuley to come back to the CIA but the way Annie did it was a little devious, I guessed Christopher would go after Hasaan Waleed as soon as Annie mentioned he was coming to the US, my favourite scene was of Jai chasing after Ben at the Docks, I have to say that Jai's character is beginning to grow on me a bit.

Episode 6: Houses Of The Holy



This episode was much better than the last one in my opinion, the best thing about this episode for me was of Auggie helping out a couple of buddies from his old Special Ops Unit, my favourite scene was when Annie kicked that assassins butt, I might have been the only person but I felt really bad for Ashley Briggs, I would say the highlight of this episode was of Senator Jarvis resigning, I was not that interested in the sub-plot about Michael Brooks but it was good to learn that he was hiding the fact he had lost his job.

It was good to see Lauren Holly (NCIS) make an appearance as Madeline Jarvis even though she turned out to be the leak in the end.

Episode 7: Communication Breakdown



This was a fantastic episode, I never would of guessed that Auggie was one of the people telling Liza Hearn CIA Secrets, I'm not sure if I believe Auggie when he says he is using Liza to find out who the real leak is, the best thing about this episode for me was the interaction between Auggie & Natasha's characters, I was very happy to see Auggie finally do some field work and I am hoping that we get to see it again at some point because based on this episode he has more than proven himself to be an able field agent, I like how almost all the sub-plots in the show so far have involved Annie's sister Danielle in some way or another.

Episode 8: What Is And What Should Never Be



This episode was somehow even better than the last one, I loved how this episode started with Annie being found with a gun in hand and a couple of dead bodies on the floor while surrounded by cops, I found it funny how Annie kept getting an access denied noise which everybody else could hear because her speakers were up so loud, It may of taken 8 episodes but we finally got conformation that Ben was a former CIA  operative which I guessed a few episodes back, It might only be me but does anybody else notice how strange Annie runs but always seems to get away.

I liked how 2/3 of this episode was of Annie telling Joan everything about what had happened to her over the previous 2 days.

Episode 9: Fool In The Rain



This was a brilliant episode, I have missed seeing Joan & Arthur have marriage counselling but what made that scene funny was that Theo was kicked out of his own office because he did not have clearance to hear what Joan & Arthur were talking about, I absolutely loved the Behrooz character because he was over the top happy, I was happy to learn Auggie was not the leak and I liked the new development in the search for who Liza is getting her information from, I look forward to seeing what happens now that Annie thinks she remembers seeing Jai in Sr Lanka.

Episode 10: I Can't Quit You Baby



This was a really good episode, I was laughing at the scene when Auggie said to Annie “that would be stupid to refuse” just after Joan said “how would you like a trip to London”, I was scared at just watching the way Vivian was driving around London, I loved the scenes of Annie at the casino losing bad at crabs while also drinking allot to sell her cover story, I actually liked the Vivian character even though her driving scared me, I wish we had seen more of the minor sub-plot about Auggie at the Smithsonian, It might only be me but I have a bad feeling about Henry Wilcox.

TOP

Episode 11: When The Levee Breaks



This was a very good episode to finish the first season off, I liked how this episode started with Ben handing himself in but did the CIA have to have so many people pointing guns at him, I liked the touching scene near the 10 minute mark when Auggie gave Annie a tracker and his phone number in case of an emergency, my favourite scene was of Annie saving Ben but the saddest scene was of Ben possibly dying in Annie's arms, I was not surprised to learn that Henry was giving Liza information, I cant wait for Season 2 as I want to know what happens with the Liza, Henry, Arthur & Joan storyline.

I also think they missed something. but it looked like Auggie believed those kids, so maybe that's just paranoia.
But I'm wondering what Ben is going to do about Annie. He is going to find a way to see her, eventhough it isn't allowed by the CIA.
And I still can't believe that Jay doesn't know his father is feeding the journalist info after he got that warning from the chief as well.

It's a good thing her defensive driving hasn't improved

I have to say I was very disappointed with the returning episode. I'm just glad Ben is gone, he bloody well annoys me! I hope he stays away for a while.

Episode 2 was much better. More action packed and I liked the sparks between Annie and Eyal!

2x02 Good Advices

Joan as a juror was amusing but who did she text to get excused so quickly and why didn't she do it sooner

Well because Aggie convinced her to do jury duty but when she found out it was two weeks she couldn't afford to be out of the loop for that long .
