    If anyone was put off by the first few episodes, it is getting better each episode now. They seem to have taken on viewer feedback. Liz is still the biggest problem... but it seems to changing... slowly.

    I dont mind so much as she at least gets more personality. Her reaction to having to sleep with her spy/husband was nice.

    I'm hating her ability as an FBI agent. She gets wrecked all the time, why is she even in the field? She's a profiler.

    Hah, the second I saw Stormare in the bed I knew what was going down...

    Though with this episode, I'm wondering...

    I always figured that Red was her father, but now I'm wondering if it's Berlin. Seems a bit farfetched, but I could see Red or someone he's associated with sending fake body parts to someone to break them. Or Red intercepted the girl and organized fake parts to be sent without the knowledge of whoever ordered it... Just a thought.

    No, send body parts to someone as if he dismembered a child.

    I said stretch, so my theory was he was ordered to do something heinous to that girl - or knew of it - and intercepted.

    he then dropped her off at a friend's to raise.

    Someone found out - original hit man? And ordered her killed.

    He saved her again.

    My thoughts on the situation can be summed up pretty accurately by this:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hFB16GCocfw

    It is pretty clear that Red was the one that saved Lizzie from the burning house. He was disgusted that he had to lie to her when he agreed her father was the one who saved her. I think her father and Red were good friends but then that night something happened and her father went "evil" and Red had to go on the run.

    Red being the the Father is to obvious. Also he said he would nevr lie to her, and I believe thar because it makes the story more awesome... so long as he doesnt hand wave it away going stat wars and saying "The man who was your father did die... consumed by Red Reddington".

    Season 2 opener was good imo.

    Was kinda hoping theyd get a new agent on the task force tho.

    I'm begging for some really dark, furious Red action.

    You got it. Well, for him this seems extreme anyway.

    Honestly, Keane is so inept I can only assume it's for a reason - it's maddening. That new chick is badass though (hot too).

    Im just going under the assumption shes only been an agent for 1 season, her first day was the first episode. Id be more annoyed if she was a super agent.

    She was in the FBI before joining the taskforce. There's no way they'd give her a gun, let alone go in the field if she wasn't qualified.

    Besides, there are more options than Jack Bauer and whatever she is now.

    She had literally just graduated from Quantico. The taskforce was her first assignment. They put her in the field because Reddington wants her there.

    There are some internal inconsistencies but this is what the canon 'facts' are. Of course, sometimes it seems like the writers just ignore what they already established.
