Complications



Game changer episode. Moretti and Franco try to take down Constantine and fail while also revealing their plan. They are now dead men walking. I really don't see how Grace is going to be able to explain her whereabouts to the Chief Of Staff back at the Hospital as well as her boyfriend. That surgery had me on pins and needles. It was fake but looked damn real. That 'tape worm' sac they pulled out of the chicks brain made me want to hurl.

Turf War



Well, the first casualty of being a Doctor and trying to juggle the life of always being on call for the Mafia has claimed it's first victim: Her relationship. The writing was on the wall once Grace went AWOL from the Hospital for 3 days while recovering from the gunshot wound. There just wasn't any way to talk her way out of this. Either she came clean with her boyfriend and tell him everything or she walks away. Actually, he did the walking. I liked how Grace framed Moretti by swapping out the victims bullet with the bullet she pulled from her wound. But the biggest twist was finding out that Franco is actually a cop working undercover. Now that was a good twist I never saw coming.

Game Changers



This episode felt like they were channeling the spirit of The Godfather films. As soon as Grace finds out that the FBI has her on their watch list, this freaks her out to the point that she suddenly "wants out", so much so that she actually confronts Constantine and tries to get him to agree to let her leave. The funny thing is during her moment of "clarity" she calls on her brother for help in giving a dope dealer a "talking to" to stay away from a former friend of hers who is strung out on  h e r o i n . When she is asking for help, she looked very comfortable in the role of a "Mafia Don". It looked like she was actually enjoying this level of power. So, not really sure what to make of the final scene between her and Franco about "going back in" to take them all down. Is she doing this because she wants her old life back or is she doing this because she wants to run all of Chicago?

Anyway, I love that Jennifer Beals has been added to the cast as a major player and I see her becoming one of the Don's running their part of the city. It won't shock me at all that she will eventually take out Seamus so that she can officially become the Queen if you will. She looks amazing and hasn't aged at all. Stunning!

Fluid Dynamics



Michael Madsen makes a cameo as another Boss from Detroit, which doesn't sit well with Constantine. Episode was good, but it could have used a lot more of Madsen to build up his character. But, it wouldn't have mattered as I just found out that The Mob Doctor has been cancelled

Cool to see both Jennifer Beals and Michael Madsen returning in this one. Man, it just sucks that this show is done. They could have done so much with the series as they were setting up some great characters. A lot of potential is just being tossed out. Ugh.

Sibling Rivalry



Good episode that has Constatine tracking down and rooting out those responsible for trying to kill him with a pipe bomb. But the biggest bomb comes at the end of the episode when his 'long lost' son returns. Why? Who knows. That's why they call it a cliffhanger. Duh. The story involving the horse was kinda funny, but also kinda weak.

Resurrection




You have a patient that dies and then comes back to life, one he has a habit of doing such things. You have a hot Mob Wife that just happens to have been a dude at one time. You have a cartel on the hunt for Constatine's son. And you have the cliffhanger where Constatine and Grace's mother getting shot down by a drive-by. Sheesh. Pretty solid episode. Not sure how this is all going to wrap up with just 1 episode left for the series. FOX, I hate you!!!

Life and Death



My biggest concern going into the Series Finale is that there would be no resolution. I was sure it would fall in line with the worst Finale ever since Las Vegas. Well, was this finale on par with that atrocious ending? Not even close. Since The Mob Doctor got cancelled fairly early into its run, this gave the writers enough time to tie up some loose ends and give it a send off that was....acceptable. That doesn't mean that this Finale was perfect. Far from it. It was incredibly rushed and forced. Also, they did leave a pretty big hole in that we will never get to see the retaliation between the Cartel and Al Trapani.

As for the rest of the episode, I wonder if Constantine was always going to be revealed as Grace's real father. It seemed because of the time factor and the need to speed things up that they may have gone down this road simply for the fact that it would give Grace a legitimate reason for her to kill him once she finds out that he used her to set up a war with the Cartel and that she was involved whether she wanted to be or not.

I'm still p*ssed at FOX. They blew it. They had a fantastic show that had so many layers and potential stories they could tell. F*ck you FOX!
