“The Great Leap Forward”

The series finale. Unforuntaely as it seems the show had really righted the course in season 4 and found more of a focus and interesting ideas to explore.

The episode opens up from Tom’s persepctive after Diana has shot him. It goes in and out as they try to move his body to a safehouse where Shawn can hopefully keep him alive while they burn out the nanotechnology with polonium.

“Tiny Machines”

It’s a big finale. Well the finale of “Tom” anyways. The whole episode revolves around Diana, Meghan, and Marcos trying to figure out a way to save Tom while burning out the Marked portion of him. After more discussions with Curtis Peck, it is discovered that they make Marked by injecting someone with nanotechnology…or tiny machines which slowly take over the host body.

“Ghost In The Machine”

Amaginly enough, the show is able to turn in a mostly filler episode with enough connection to the overall plot that it is able to stay intriguing and further along the subplots. So maybe it’s not quite filler afterall.

“One of Us”

The episode heralds the arrival of Rebecca Parrish, Director of National Intelligence to declare his displeasure with the job NTAC has doen with P-Positives and Jordan Collier. Even more important though, is that Tom Baldwin begins having visions of the future. Is he becoming one of the Marked? It certainly looks like it. It looks more like it when Parrish is revealed as a Marked by pushing Tom to accept his fate as host to the entitiy.

“Daddy’s Little Girl”

Everything is transpiring as the prophecy seen. Unfortunately for Isabelle. She’s not mentioned in the prophecy so Jordan still has very little use for her. Kyle though is very strongly attracted to her and wants to keep her around. So everything is thrown into a loop when Isabelle’s father, Richard shows up in Promise City after being on the run forever.

“No Exit”

A highly imaginative episode that allows for a story that would otherwise have been impossible. Tom wakes up in his office with no idea how he got there. Before too long we find that most of the main characters of the story are all waking up at NTAC with no idea why. Diana, Meghan, Maia, Marcos and crew, Shawn, Collier, and even Isabelle.

“Til We Have Built Jerusalem”

The showdown is coming. Collier has not only come back to Seattle. He has decided to actively take an abandoned portion of Seattle over and rename it Promise City. He actively will allow and promicin-positive person to live in peace as they try to bring about paradise but he will not brook any non promicin-positive person to work against nor step foot in the new city. In fact he places security barriers around that no one can cross as Tom and Diana discover…painfully.

“The Marked”

The beginning of the end. On the surface this episode seemed almost middling at first. A 4400er of the week with a humorous power. It was all offputting. And strangely addicting.

“The Truth and Nothing But The Truth”

Not a great episode honestly but a necessary one. I got the feeling that the writers have finally found their focus. They know what they want to do but the wandering listlessness of the third season left them with a few stories they needed to close and move on.

“Try The Pie”

I would consider this episode a prologue to the set of episodes that is sending the series hurtling towards a dramatic conclusion. Or at least a cliffhanger. I’ve stayed away from spoiling myself from the cancellation stories.
