Hey, this one was pretty good! Essentially a bottle episode, we spend the first 90% wondering if Kay is losing her mind or not. As she recovers from a gunshot injury, a bunch of weird stuff happens involving her niece and Benazir Bhutto (why not) and scuba diving and she's suddenly paranoid about everyone's motives. I'm always a sucker for a "is this real or is this just fantasy" plot. And then the last 10% swerves into Saw territory and not in a particularly fun way, but, you know what, I'll forgive it. I was captivated.
