Why Await Life’s End (When It’s Filed Away)

The season wrapped up by bringing some people together and tearing some others apart. Weller and his sister investigate if Taylor Shaw is really buried in the backyard and when it looks like their Dad may have just been hallucinating Weller makes an awful discovery. This leads him to Jane and to question everything they have done together. Jane is having her own bad day, she gets kidnapped by Oscar who is going to re-wipe her memory, something she is not okay with. Epic fight ensues and Oscar does not come out on the winning end. The rest of the team however bond over finding Mayfair. They find a lot of blood instead and some clues to what exactly Daylight and Orion are.

Oscar’s plan is to rewipe Jane’s memory? Again I have to ask….how is this conducive to the end game?

I’m still not very clear on the plan.

Leah: I’m annoyed by Oscar. Wiping Jane’s memory again so they can start over seems very counterproductive to the mission. All this planning and it comes down to Oscar can’t deal with Jane not loving him? I get the idea is to take down the corrupt government, but taking out Mayfair specifically seems very personal and not quite so wide reaching as I would have hoped.

Roz: The PLAN is dumb. D.U.M.B. But I think when you want to take down the government it’s also a big plan that can’t succeed so this all makes a twisted sort of sense. What is Jane supposed to do with Kurt in charge of the FBI in NYC, I still don’t know, but we have a second season to explain everything.

Wasn’t it great to have Reade, Zapata and Patterson all working together. Now that they have Mayfair’s Intel will they share it or keep investigating on their own?

Leah: Finally! They are all sharing information and tracking down clues together! I hope they share it. I don’t know if that will happen but fingers crossed.

Roz: Yes! Teamwork is good, but I don’t know if sharing that information with the rest of the world is a good plan right now. It’s probably going to backfire and go right towards Oscar’s plan – or the bigger plan of Scorpion.

How do Jane and Weller get past this? Is that even possible?
Leah: Jane was doing all of this with the threat of her new friends lives being ended if she didn’t. So maybe, somewhere down the road, Weller will see this. It’s not going to be an easy road though.

Roz: Can they get past this? I don’t see a good way out right now because everything that Jane built with Kurt over the season just went poof into the air like a popped balloon.

Blindspot will be back next fall on NBC
