The Night Shift 2.13 Darkest Before Dawn
These snipers were radical for no apparent reason! This was so annoying, I hate outrage violence like this. It was a public attack on the innocent bystanders, civilians and authority figures. I think it's appropriate to show this type of storyline since today's current events display a lot of injustice based on race and sexuality. The outrage this storyline can bring to the surface is very important.
I didn't think Paul would still be working on the shift with his hand situation. The most important thing is he finally agreed to do the surgery. He's young and can make a better decision now than he would if he was clouded with the direction of where he wants to take his life with the least amount of risks.
Dr. Chavez is back! I like Joey, even with his temporary three month contracts. Hoping season three makes him a permanent character because he's the greatest. He's the one with the calm, relaxing mindset with the right sense of humour to get along with everyone. Totally fighting for him to be on the team under Kenny's watch!
Awesome the ending had Drew and Rick fix their relationship and want to go get married. I'm not sure how common homosexual marriages are in Texas, but it looks like they're quite open and liberal in the San Antonio area. Drew deserves to be happy, especially since he spent most of this season upset over Rick moving out and trying to find his place as an openly gay doctor.
I didn't think T.C. and Topher would return so soon. It's a good thing though since this is the finale, they didn't have them in the sandstorm. I like the way this has played out with T.C. and Jordan's relationship. They did lose the baby, but they can work on themselves this time around. I hope Jordan agrees to his proposal. This couple has jumped through hoops for each other and I'd be disappointed to see them throw in the towel.

The Night Shift 2.12 Sunrise, Sunshine
The Night Shift 2.12 Sunrise, Sunshine
It's kind of interesting to see Topher express his feelings for once on how him and T.C. are always likely to self-blame themselves on their conscience. It's the BFF brotherly friendship for sure, but they'll always be willing to sacrifice themselves for the other one. It's an endless cycle of their love and respect.
That sniper is angry at everyone in San Antonio. It's as if they're doing target practice for sport. The accident build up made me think maybe one of the patients inside the hospital was the sniper all along, but when the distress call was made and Gwen and her EMT partner went out on the field, it made me look at them as targets. It doesn't make sense, but hopefully we find out what's going on int he next episode.
What's going on with Paul?! I can't believe her threw himself out on the field the way he did. Now his hand is damaged and Krista is the only one who can help keep his secret. This is the rest of his life/career he's depending on. I don't know why he kept it wrapped and trekked through the rest of the shift. He should've listened, I hope Drew and Kenny can help him out.
Poor Scott! He eliminated everything the smart way by paying off the family from the car accident, but this doesn't mean he's going to live stress-free. It doesn't mean he's going to have nightmares of what kind of life the 16 year old is going to live from here on out, but it's supposed to make him feel better about returning to work.
Now I'm freaking out for Jordan. She fainted and it didn't turn out too well. I hope this doesn't cause weaknesses for her baby, but this is a big red flag for T.C. to come back already! Stop playing super G.I. Joe and come home through the storm!

The Night Shift 2.11 Moving On
The Night Shift 2.10 Moving On
Seeing Gwen lose it the way she did was heartbreaking on so many levels. In a second she went instinctual with what she witnessed between the couple. It was sad to see Jordan loose her faith with the claim, but I understand since she's probably seen Gwen get manic over anyone who appears like a dominant male. It's good she got it off her chest and opened up to Kenny. I feel they'll be good for each other, especially since he's very supportive with her while she heals.
The comedic competition with the doctor with the weirdest case was so fun to watch. Everybody dropped everything for the sake of a competitive edge, who doesn't love that?!
I'm glad T.C. is going with Topher into the field. Topher looked attached and saddened to see his friend suffering through the Skype call. Also, what T.C. is doing is another representation of their friendship. They do things together no matter what and don't hold anything against the other. I just hope this trip doesn't cost them from what goes on in San Antonio. It'll be dangerous of course, but maybe they'll miss a case or something important back at the hospital.

The Night Shift 2.10 Hold On
The Night Shift 2.10 Hold On
I stopped breathing the moment that metal beam fell on top of T.C. =O He takes a lot of risk and really does live on the edge. It's bothersome but as it was mentioned previously in the last episode, she told Gwen she wouldn't change him. She fell in love with him for who he is and changing him would make him a different person. I really do agree with this statement because I feel partners should only change themselves consciously on their own. This means they'd only better themselves to be a better person.
That car accident was insane! I actually believed Scott may have been intoxicated, only because he ran the red stop sign with the explanation he was late for his night shift as on-call surgeon. His guilt pretty much ran his adrenaline the entire shift and made himself responsible for the boy in the other car. I also don't think it was a good idea he involved himself more than he did with the actual surgery. It rubbed salt into the wounds, didn't help either party.
I sympathize for Scott, but the hospital, particularly T.C. and Jordan, stuck their neck out for him by "speeding up" his test results. If anything, they put so much faith in him to have him finish up the surgery. I'm glad Jordan still chooses T.C. at the end of the day, but I want to move forward with their relationship without thinking about every little detail holding them behind.

The Night Shift 2.09 Aftermath
The Night Shift 2.09 Aftermath
That was super badass of Krista and Jordan to save that patient while driving to the hospital. This really shows the ladies can make a difference and improvise when they're on the move; real doctors and rockstar women right here!
It's good T.C. admitted his mistake with his patient. He knows he pre-judged based on appearance, but lucky he found the tumour in the MRI. He also explained to the mom what the options can be that will help save her. He always has the good intentions.
I'm glad Drew and Rick were able to patch up their past. It's nice to know they've reached a middle ground of peace as well. I"m glad Kenny called our Drew on being a gay doctor. As much as Drew tries to be private, he told him why are you hiding anymore? He shouldn't be ashamed anymore about being a gay doctor who served his country, just like how Kenny is a black, male nurse who identifies with minority. This is very important to hear, especially in today's day and age.
Nothing else to say except T.C. giving up the Harley Davidson shows he's becoming more responsible and no longer living on the edge. He's still got his spontaneity, but he's thinking about his future with Jordan and his baby =)

The Night Shift 2.08 Parenthood
The Night Shift 2.08 Parenthood
I've got to say, the whole team has come together in a new light in welcoming Ragosa to be a real part of the team. Organizing the party for his daughter meant a lot to him, but it makes you wonder why his ex-wife has so much resentment against him. She must've had extravagant spending habits when he had his previous salary but I'm not sure why everything falls on to his shoulders when he gets to see his daughter at a minimum.
The shooting at the ceremony really makes you think about the trauma these families go through when losing a piece of them overseas. They didn't get into the situation as much, but they did show enough to show the cost of one person's actions on the innocent. Drew has a lot of friends he served with, but I really like how they're all accepting of his sexuality. I hear that in ANY work environment, so many people are subjected to hate because of their sexual orientation. Finally here's a show that's proud of having same-sex partners and awareness surrounding their everyday struggles (The Flash mildly does the same thing too with the head of police department being a gay, married man).
I wonder if T.C.'s sister-in-law is making a reappearance in the show. She sort of just disappeared, but I can't say she brought anything interesting to the table either. She brought out all kinds of baggage with her addiction problems, and Jordan is close to sainthood because of how well she treated her and downplayed her behaviour.
Wrong move on Paul for taking the medication. I understand he wanted to help the little boy, but Kenny even said all he had to do was ask. Kenny got a promotion and could've lost his job on the spot if anybody thought there was suspicious activity going on. Kenny just mended what's going on with Krista, now he's got awkwardness with Paul.
Speaking of Krista, I am glad she is clear of cancer traces in her body. Her and Drew as BFFs are a good combination in this =)

The Night Shift 2.07, The Following 3.07, Bates Motel 3.05
The Night Shift 2.07 Best Laid Plans
T.C. is so excited to be a father! I like this new jump in his step, it shows him and Jordan really working together. It also takes away from his addict sister-in-law's behaviour as of lately.
Ragosa and Topher were on point with their father instincts tonight. I like how they're trying to find ways to protect their daughters and want to outsmart them, it really showed a joking side to everything in this episode.
Kenny looks like he won't be good with Krista for a long time. I'm sad the whole group isn't getting along the way they should, it's much better when staff have a fun environment.
Paul got so much support from Scott tonight! Paul's dad dropping in the way he did was so overbearing and suffocating. Paul definitely needed Scott to help stand up for his goals and happiness. Paul looked really hurt from the simplest of rejections from his dad, and it was the most basic thing anybody would want; TIME. He wanted to spend quality time with his dad, nothing else.
I especially enjoyed T.C. and Drew giving their patient a second chance in getting his life back together and starting over.
The Following 3.07 The Hunt
Max is letting her guard down too much. She's way too careless with her injury and keeps throwing herself out into the field (possibly to avoid Mike and Tom?) I'd rather see her with Mike for the sake of stability.
Ryan's really unwell with all the Joe imagery going on. If Joe actually gets the death penalty, will Ryan's mind be at ease or worsen? I don't think he'll improve his condition if he's used to shutting everybody out and committing to the job.
Michael Ealy's acting is on another level! He bounces in and out of his cover life and murderous secret like no other, really impressed he's the new villain in the show! I have nothing bad to say about Theo as the new addition. I also want Mark to come back. Him and Theo are much better than this Duncan guy. Manny Montana's cameo was much appreciated! It fuelled my Graceland nostalgia even with minimal Tom scenes.
Bates Motel 3.05 The Deal
Norma's behaviour really doesn't make sense. She's wayward and is never consistent with what she wants. She may put Norman's needs ahead of hers, but she doesn't use logic to do anything right.
The Norman-Dylan fight was bound to happen. Norman is attached to his mom and doesn't like to see anybody get close to her. It almost looks like he's unnaturally obsessed with her because she's always suppressing his psychotic illness. I wonder if this is a taste of how the actual psycho comes about. Once he gets his mother taken away, his subconscious takes over his entire state of mind.
Romero is so supportive that Sheriff Badass should be his name. Walking in with Norma to declare she has the USB key hidden away safely is kind of ballsy. Norma was insane for making all sorts of demands, but it's either going to go well or south if she didn't make claims clear.

The Night Shift 2.06, The Following 3.05, Bates Motel 3.04
The Night Shift 2.06 Need To Know
[[I'm not sure if an episode was skipped by the network station, but according to IMDB, this was scheduled as next week's episode.]]
[[I'm not sure if an episode was skipped by the network station, but according to IMDB, this was scheduled as next week's episode.]]
We get to meet Ragosa's wife and daughter and learn he's been
hiding about his new position. It's understandable, especially when somebody
steps down from a hire spot in the ER. It's sweet though his daughter takes an
understanding to what her dad went through and how he feels more fulfilled
learning and helping people.
T.C.'s life is getting messier. His sister-in-law is an anchor
weighing him down with her addiction problems. He lives by a solid code though,
which is you never turn your back on family. I'm afraid this isn't enough to
justify her actions. She just keeps running away from them, refusing whatever
help T.C. tries to offer. You either get help and get better or you stay in the
rut you're stuck in.
Jordan is a good person though for never throwing it in T.C.'s
face all that she's done in the past while T.C. served abroad. She really does
have a heart of gold, and I'm glad Gwen stepped in and made it clear all that
Jordan's been through for the sake of their relationship. Now that Jordan is
pregnant, I'm hoping this introduces a more exciting storyline throughout the
show.
Kenny looks like he made it clear to Krista where they stand, I
just hope they can be friends. What's more awkward than breaking up with
someone you have to work with?
The Following 3.05 Reunion
I'm liking the continuity from last week's episode into this one.
Leaving off right where Ryan visited Joe in prison.
Strauss is FINALLY dead. I didn't think it would happen that
quickly, but it looks like his "best student" is getting a prominent
role in the show. Daisy can't possibly get far with her face plastered
everywhere on the news. She can't survive now that Strauss isn't around to
protect her. The character was getting tiring though, like how I felt with Emma
in the previous two seasons.
Max and Tom's relationship better be over soon. He's spying on her
with the laptop, talk about broken trust in the relationship. Also, is Max a
bad cop for not noticing all these hidden cameras in her apartment? Maybe a bad
investigator, she is FBI after all.
Ryan's Gwen is rubbing me off the wrong way now. Too many
questions, all at the worst times when he needs to relax. If he gives away too
much, she's either next to throw him under the bus.
Bates Motel 3.04 Unbreak-Able
I wonder what's on the USB Annika left for Norma. Obviously it has
to do with the Arcanum Club, but maybe it's all the dirty-laundry secrets of
the town? Otherwise, the president of the club wouldn't have been so concerned
ransacking the motel for it.
Dylan looks really hurt that Norman would sell him out so quick about harvesting Caleb at his place. It's not by choice, but he finally has a proper mother-son relationship with Norma. That's really all he's reached for growing up. Only learning what Caleb did to her did he learn why he was always treated differently apart from Norman. I think Dylan and Norma only started being civil to one another in the middle of season one when he found out something was psychologically wrong with Norman. Norma trusted the secret with Dylan, and since then they've grown with their relationship.

Norman is getting too attached to his mom. His goal is always to please her or seek approval. It's not normal, but it may be his subconscious trying to please the bad version of his mom that tells him "he did nothing wrong" every time he goes into his dark place. Also with Sheriff Romero paying frequent visits to the motel, he's not far off from finding the truth. This show is getting much darker as we go along, I hope we reach a conclusion with Norman's condition by the end of the finale. Really tired of waiting around like this!

The Night Shift 2.05, Bates Motel 3.03
Separating my post for The Following this evening since I really had a ramble with tonight's episode!
The Night Shift 2.05 Ghosts
T.C.'s sister-in-law is a drug addict! Makes sense with her sudden return to T.C.'s doorstep. The drugs in her purse are linked to Drew's late patient outside the clinic. I wonder if Drew will be the one finding this out first hand in next week's episode. I just hope she doesn't weigh down on T.C.'s problems when he's got everything going for him with Jordan at the moment.
Shutting down the entire ER was scary, I wonder if these are the great lengths people go through to contain diseases. That poor patient who had so many plans to go off and travel with his father to Alaska suddenly has to take a backseat to the rest of his life. Paul did a great job keeping it together, treating the patient as best he could.
Gwen's turning out to be a good friend of Drew, and may get comfortable with Kenny.
That was quick to write off Joey Chavez. I guess it was a part time gig for him before the actor (Alex Rodriguez) decided to go film the next installment of Magic Mike. I quite liked his character on the show. Since there was a lot of diversity already, he brought something else to the table.
I hope Jordan isn't endangered any further. I'm glad Scott happened to be in the parking lot at the same time to rescue her and bring her home. He's not a bad guy, it's just one of the situations where she fell out of love with him when she always wanted to be with T.C. Hoping next week will close up that scary stalker patient story.
Bates Motel 3.03 Persuasion
Am I the only one surprised Annika is still alive? I thought that was her in the water, even though Norma verified the corpse wasn't her. The USB key must be important evidence to take into consideration. Norma better do the right thing and turn it in to Alex. It'll be interesting where the story will lead to with Annika's discovery.
I have no idea what the Arcanum Club houses other than wealthy and powerful part of town. I think they're all investors and take part in the illegal behaviours and vices of the town. It's sad no matter how much Romero tries to clean up the illegal activity, it's just the tip of the iceberg. Wish he could get more support in his offices, and NOT that guy who is competing for sheriff on the next election.
Norman and Emma may become a lethal couple. Emma will bring out the best of him, but her provocative outfit at the start of the episode brought out the suppressed Norman for a moment in the motel office. Emma is the only piece of goodness left in this show, I just don't want to see her go!

The Night Shift 2.04 Shock to the Heart
The Night Shift 2.04 Shock to the Heart
May have to always separate these posts from The Following and Bates Motel reviews, since these are more realistic and less morbid.
I'm so happy Paul stood up for his patient. Date-rape is a serious crime, yet we see so many victims ashamed of the incident and coming forward. It's good they portrayed this in a setting where the girl had no control and in no way was at fault. She attended a party with one of her girlfriends and later was taken advantage of. Paul went wild on her jackass of a friend, but he had every right to. Very rarely is something done to justify a victim's rights. It's about time Paul became the voice for somebody who couldn't speak up in time.
Jordan and T.C. look like they're in a good place. Getting the dog was a sweet gesture from T.C.'s side! Now they can have a full and happy home.
I see Krista distancing herself from Kenny. I know their relationship is really new, and they didn't even date at the end of first season, so it's easy not to get attached to them. Joey appears to be emotionally different then Kenny, but neither of them are bad guys. Joey happens to be more in touch with positive energy and yoga. Kenny wants to get closer to Krista, but it's not working out in his favour.
Ragosa is kicking more ass! I feel bad for Drew's personal life, but it was going to come sooner or later. I thought if his partner didn't want to leave, Drew would be the one to pull the plug on the relationship. It's probably another reason why Krista is feeling bad about being in the middle of it. I'm sure he isn't going to do anything wrong, but hope he can get back to being in Ragosa's corner for doing well in the hospital.
Ragosa outdone himself and stepped it up investigating the family's vehicle and work conditions. I like him better on the same level as Topher and the rest of the team.

The Night Shift 2.03 Eyes Look Your Last
The Night Shift 2.03 Eyes Look Your Last
I had to separate this post from my Bates Motel and The Following entry considering those two episodes were much darker than I anticipated this evening.
It's a good thing Jordan is comfortable with introducing T.C. to her mom again. I just hope she doesn't get jealous of her ex-husband Scott. He deserves to move on as well. If they have a problem working together, I think Scott should move elsewhere if it comes down to being an issue. Joey wasn't in this evening's episode, but he looks like a good substitute doctor for Scott's place in case he gets written off.
Anyway, on to the drama of the storyline tonight. I only knew about the Romeo and Juliet law from the fourth installment of Transformers haha! It was really sad to see T.C. couldn't help the security guard father with his struggle to adapt back into his life at home. His daughter seemed angry but she looked like she really cared for her dad underneath the health scare. It's very rare for T.C. to find people outside the hospital who have parallel lives to his experience. The chances of that dad taking lethal matters into his own hands only to miss his daughter coming out of comatose was a tragedy. That really was a miracle for her to escape being a vegetable.
I feel for Paul. His confession of being afraid he's not "good enough," to do greatness, or be close to his family, holds him back from being with his family. I think his talk helped with coming to terms with not wanting to regret people-pleasing everybody else. He should totally do what he wants to, which I am sure is a lot of people's reality nowadays. I find that happiness is what people are striving for to lead a fulfilling life, and that's exactly what Paul should do (Ragosa is definitely doing it).
Drew is awesome in training Ragosa haha! It's good to know Ragosa was the one who stood up for Drew to the board members last season for his sexuality. That's one of the smaller deeds Ragosa did for Drew without question, and that shows good leadership right there.
Topher and T.C. are the ultimate best friends. T.C. said everyone thinks when he got back form duty, it was Jordan who kept him going. He admits it was Topher all along who brought him back. "You're too much of a pain in the ass for me to train a new best friend." If that doesn't tell you what kind of friendship they have, I don't know what else you'll need.

The Night Shift 2.02 Back at the Ranch
The Night Shift 2.02 Back at the Ranch
YES! T.C. is back and performing surgeries! I'm good as long as he's back in action now =P
Topher is having so much fun with Ragosa haha I love it! It looks like T.C. and Jordan are really serious now, glad they're moving forward. T.C. needs more stability in his life.
I didn't think Krista may gravitate towards Joey, even though she's with Kenny at the moment. A bit of a triangle for the time being, but I guess it's there since T.C.-Jordan-Scott are finished. T.C. seems to be the only professional one around everybody, especially since Scott was dumped.
I'm a bit worried for Drew, because his boyfriend is getting his self-esteem down and aggravated. Drew can only do so much for him but it's getting under his skin that he can't be around him at home anymore. I hope the prosthetics surgery/consult Krista helped him score will change things around. I like happy Drew around the halls!
Hoping Joey and T.C. can be friends. Joey seems to understand T.C. since they've both served before settling in San Antonio. He also did a very good deed letting T.C. take the reigns in his OR. I find T.C. is way too hard on himself, but he has to mentally recover somehow if he wants to get his life back.

The Night Shift 2.01 Recovery
The Night Shift 2.01 Recovery
I'm so happy this show is back! I forgot why T.C. got suspended but picked up after he had his panic attack in the OR for the season finale. I'm really glad Topher is alright now and back working the night shift with the team.
I don't like T.C. tiptoeing around the place as if he doesn't belong. Everybody calls for T.C., they know he's the one who knows what to do. His suspension better be lifted by the next episode. He likes to be the one to kick ass and save lives, total adrenaline junkie indeed! What he did for his friend's surgery was so nice. He loves his motorcycle but did the honourable deed and saved a friend's life.
Where's Landry? She looks like she was written off the show and replaced with the new emergency paramedic Gwen. I like her but at least say something about Landry; she played a great role with the team and was inbetween T.C. and Ragosa. She was also the psych in the department, never did get a replacement for her.
I am glad we have Joey (also known as Delko from those CSI: Miami days) on the team as a fun character. I would hope for more female characters to be a part of this show, but I like Adam Rodriguez as an actor!
Pretty stoked Ragosa quit and is considering working the floor with the rest of the team. Maybe we can see a different side to him that isn't all management and money. When he said he refused to push paper and be hated, that totally speaks to people today with their happiness in general. A lot of people like to work in an environment for the money, but the most people nowadays prefer feeling more fulfilled and happy with what they do as opposed to how much they earn. Getting back to the show, I understand Ragosa's feelings with having a tumour scare and regaining his life back.
