Synopsis: Conor Devlin plots revenge and returns to his home country, Ireland; the team unknowingly becomes a pawn in his plans.
In this episode of Quantico, Conor Devlin is pulling no punches in seeking revenge and he’s not going to stop until all the people are struck off his list. The promo teased the death of a popular character. You may just have to bid adieu to one of your favourite characters on the show.
A true blue baddie, Conor Devlin has many tricks up his sleeve and has ‘mastered the art of war’. The formidable villain ratchets up the stakes.
In this episode, like many others Quantico puts a character’s life on the line. This time it’s Owen but now that we know that its the series’ penchant, we are not holding our breath. Maisie from episode 10 returns to the show. The character’s freshness ensures that she pulls at our heartstrings.
Alex is finally not the ‘super woman’ we’ve known. We see a flawed, relatable Alex played by Priyanka Chopra in the series. She falters, breaks down and we finally see her mind-scape riddled with chaos. It’s emotionally liberating to see her shirk her mask of perfection.
Since the tension is at its peak, the team members are exasperated with their tempers resembling a tinderbox.
And guess who’s back? Deep. Here’s an exchange that explains his cop-out.
Deep: I left because I was afraid of losing myself. You want revenge, don’t you?Alex: No I don’t. I just...Deep: Yes you do. Don’t let that come between you and everyone you care about.
The team showcases some great detective skills as it unravels the witness statements. But a crucial question remains unanswered. Despite having an opportunity for seeking backup, what them ignore it?
