Ok, Rachel is kinda winning me over. I was being cautious (who is this woman who would abandon my fav character?!), but she's so bloody interesting...and her scenes with Bass are always so tense and they keep. getting. better. And I don't want to ship them, I don't, but...I'm a shipper and there's only so long that I can

*laughs and nods*

Someone really needs to fict pov's from those around all these scenes involving the main characters and dramatic moments; the milita heading home with Danny (some random kid, instead of their actual target); the (doomed) milita heading in to catch THE Miles Matheson; Jeremy's men talking amongst themselves about his leadership; the milita guards keeping an eye on Rachel, leading her to and from Bass...etc.

I'm sure there's plenty of rumors about her...but at the same time I'm sure Monroe doesn't doesn't encourage it, and definitely doesn't tell everyone he knows that there are people who might be able to get the power back, and that oh, yeh - he may just have one living in his attic...

I'm not sure I can really compare Rachel and Maggie that way myself. I mean, I get it, but Maggie was alone and trying to find a way to get to the other side of the world, while Rachel had her kids (and Ben) in front of her who needed protection, so they had completely different options.

True, but I still see Rachel being so close and not making any effort to disentangle herself from Bass as a demerit point. I mean if we find out she's been rebuilding - from memory - all the plans for the power-neutraliser machine and has been communicating with someone outside Monroe's notice/or is planning her escape, but timing it with something big...then that would be cool.

But if she's just been living there...

her world seems to be divided into "can help me find/save Danny" and "can't help me find/save Danny"

I kinda love that about her. Her father used his last words to give her a task, and she's bloody well going to finish it.

Personally, I can't wait for the...NOW what? once she's got Danny back. Coz it won't be over. They'll have drawn too much attention to themselves in the process; all the dust of the last 15 years seems to be getting kicked up right now.

There will be no going back.
