Scorpion - Young Hearts Spark Fire

Team Scorpion is hired to find a church group of lost hikers in the Los Angeles wilderness who have been missing for 36 hours. The situation is further complicated when the team’s helicopter goes down starting a wildfire that quickly spreads. The (latest) life or death situation, which thankfully this week doesn’t have any global consequences, allows Toby (Eddie Kaye Thomas) to continue to chip away at Happy‘s (Jadyn Wong) reluctance to date and for Walter (Elyes Gabel) to seriously consider Toby’s diagnosis that he’s in love with Paige (Katharine McPhee).

One late night of Ryan‘s (Seamus Dever) part-time work as a security guard for his brother-in-law’s (David Conrad) company ends in tragedy when the Congressman (Ricardo Chavira) he was protecting and the speaker (Annie Little) at the event are both shot on his watch.

Perception - Run

Premiering in the summer of 2012 TNT’s Perception was an intriguing premise of casting Eric McCormack as a schizophrenic consultant for the FBI who would work through a case by discussing it with hallucinatory figments of his imagination. McCormack and Rachael Leigh Cook, as the professor’s former student turned FBI agent, helped sell the murder-of-the-week which often involved Dr. Daniel Pierce (McCormack) diagnosising an unusual mental condition that would often exonerate one suspect and eventually help lead the FBI to the true culprit of the crime.

Pretty Little Liars - I'm a Good Girl, I Am

Paving the way for next week’s season finale (and promised big reveal), Alison‘s (Sasha Pieterse) comes to a close and the remaining Liars are set to join her in prison (although what they are actually being charged with is unclear). Alison’s guilty verdict isn’t a surprise but her insistence to avoid the truth like the plague (such as explaining the archery trophy which, as bizarre as it seems, was the final nail in her coffin with the jury) when it could have possibly changed the outcome is confounding. Nor does Alison get any help from Mike (Cody Allen Christian) as Aria (Lucy Hale) takes steps to protect her bother leading to Mike, Ezra (Ian Harding), and Caleb (Tyler Blackburn) into an ambush by A.
