The look that Stonebrige gave after Scott’s story was of pure acceptance and understanding. You’re right, if they had been women they would have hugged it out hahahaha.

I bet if we were to compare TV schedules, we’d see a lot of the same shows. It seems we have similar tastes because I love Fringe and well, recap Once every week. Fingers crossed that Hunted fills the void left by Strike Back….at least for a while anyway

What was funny too, after Scott told his story, the way Stonebridge looked at him,it was the same as if it had been 2 women she would have grabbed her friends hand. I think Stonebridge knew he might kill Kristy. It also explains why Scott had such a problem with capable, women as his boss.

Dalton knew they were close, by their behavior in Somalia. But she has changed, but because of her background she is very smart and an excellent manipulator. They were lucky Sinclair watched her so closely in the background. It was interesting too that Stonebridge said why Carrie? I was standing right there. Then wack job Hanson gave his bit blah, blah, and Stonebridge said he wasn’t like us, and psycho Hanson never saw how sick his brother was, who wanted to leave, but Hanson made him stay, and he should have done right by his brother.

Poor Matlock, when he said that he should have known better when he hired Hanson. And what is up with the Nigerians! They were crazy! And scary! I think that I will watch Hunted too, Fringe is on before, so I look fwd to your recaps. Oh, and I love Once too, that show is amazing!

A new commenter! YAY! I really loved that line as well and thought finally! Dalton gets it!! I really hope they don’t follow the same road that other shows do in terms of trust between their leads. No way, after this season especially would that work. Plus it’s just tired. The writers have gone against the grain from the beginning and I hope they continue to do so. I dig your idea about doppleganger villains. I think that would be great and I can totally here Scott saying that. It’s so him. Are you going to watch Hunted? I’ll definitely check it out. Hope to hear from you again! I’ll be back to recapping Strike Back when season 3 starts but feel free to drop by anytime! Cheers!!

My thoughts exactly! I was so dog tired last night that I didn’t think I’d make it through the episode, but the minute the countdown started I was wide awake. I love how for 2 seasons we’ve been wondering what exactly his story was and BAM….there it is. Perfection! Still pissed that Bryant got away though. You can’t help but love those two. They are one of the best pairings I’ve seen in a long time. I’ve watched interviews with them and they seem like they are really close. Although it’s still weird to hear them speak with their normal accents ahahahah.

And I love that it finally clicked for Dalton. Stonebridge was like, well ok then….no explanation needed. Accepted and ready to go take care of business. On to season 3. But first….Hunted.

Just finished watching the S2 finale of Strike Back and the one line at the end of the hospital scene, when Dalton says (paraphrase) “We are lucky to have two of you [there]…” Yes, watching Stonebridge and Scott in action is something. Through the season, Scott and Stonebridge TRUST each other, when one says, “Trust me on this.” The other, with some apprehension, does. Let’s hope Season 3 doesn’t use the cliche ploy of “Their trust in each other will be tested.” Blah, blah. I understand the need for tension and conflict, but StrikeBack is about action, not drama. For season 3, I would like to see the antagonists be bad-guy versions of Scott and Stonebridge. Imagine two Hansen-type characters playing cat and mouse with our two favorite Section 20 operatives. Maybe a joke from Scott saying “Who the fuck are these guys?” Cant wait until 2013 for my Strike Back fix! Cheers!

Wow, the entire explanation of Scott in 3 minutes—we were both right! You said she must have hurt him really badly, and I knew she made him kill someone, like a girlfriend who was an asset or something. She is a cruel bitch, now that we know why he hates her and left. I think it was why he wasn’t a man whore this season. Everytime she said redemption w/a bullet or whatever she was taunting him with she used his feelings about killing that boy. She really was a cold hearted bitch, and poor Scott was broken hearted. He was no fool, he knew that all he was to her was a great lay between hits. Even when she tried the whole “you know how i felt about you” and he was like BS, u made it quite clear how you felt. It was so horrible, after the story that was Scott in a nutshell, & finally Dalton got it. But Michael just accepted him, but even he was like oh i understand now. Two moments I loved: Scott said it was long shot and Michael said that is what it always is , it was on. The other was the dream he had mentioned to Michael, and he probably will never forgive himself but he has stopped running. They really are close, it has been so great to see their evolution this season. Well no one is going to break those 2 up, ever, and I am so glad we will still have Dalton! But I loved seeing South Africa, that was a great bonus

I love those two, and I am glad we will have season 3!
