Blind Spot



Fantastic episode where we get not one, but two Alphas that are compliments of each other. On one hand we have a blind Alpha, Kern (Brent Spiner) that uses Sonar to "see" and on the other hand we have an Alpha that uses human blind spots as her source of invisibility, Griffin (Rebecca Mader) who is an Alpha Bounty HunterKern's , who is working for Red Flag, has created a drug supplement for Pregnant women. But they don't know that he has spiked the drug with Alpha DNA in the hopes of spawning a new generation of Alphas. Griffin is sent out to capture both him and the drug for an unnamed benefactor. It was cool to see Rebecca Mader again. Since LOST ended, she has gotten to play some pretty cool baddies on No Ordinary Family and now Alphas.

The Unusual Suspects



Supposedly there is a mole within the Alpha group, one that is killing off those close to the project. The team itself is detained by Government Agents. So who is the mole? The finger lands on Dr. Rosen, who turns out to be an Alpha shape-shifter take tne form of the real Rosen who had been kidnapped and held prisoner. Looks like the team at the end is getting a new member, Eric who can detect who is lying. Is that really a "super power?" Anyway, at the end, Bill collapsed from an apparent heart attack, due to being amped up all the time, which gives him his power of super strength.

Original Sin



For a Season Finale, I was expecting a lot more. But the acting and the writing were painfully bad. It's one thing to get a poorly written episode, but it's another thing when seasoned actors can't deliver their lines. As for Original Sin, in spite of this hiccup, there were some moments to move the story forward. So, Dr. Rosen has a daughter who in turns is an Alpha, which is the catalyst for why he started this team in the first place, to find other Alphas. Also, he comes face to face with Stanton Parish, the leader of Red Flag. In the end, Dr. Rosen pulls the lid off regarding the secret society of Alphas by announcing to the world, via broadcast that Alphas exist among humans. The twist at the end is that Rosen's daughter, Danielle (Kathleen Munroe) is working with Parish.

Pilot



It's really weird to finally see the first episode of the series after I've already watched the entire season. Knowing exactly what their abilities are and their personal relationships to each other now, there are no surprises for me watching the Pilot. That's the good thing about this episode. The bad thing is that it was weak. The pacing was very slow and there wasn't much to what I was watching. Had I started with the Pilot, I know very well that I would have not gone any further with the series.
