Rubicon (New AMC series)

[Rambo]

Another good ep although not as good as the last one. Who do you guys think is messing with the bug?

 

[Baron]

Probably Kale. I think he's bugging him under orders, but telling him in order to let him pursue his other mission.

The scene where Kale walks about into Will's office while Spangler is being poly'd would seem to suggest that he's the one bugging him.

My hunch as well. Either him or the secretary working under Kale's orders.

Except he walked into Spengler's office..not Will's.

Incorrect. That was a different scene. Spangler was being poly'd in Kale's office, which is right across the way from Will's. They are the glass ones with no shades on the inside part. Spangler's office is on the top floor by itself.

Not sure why shows totally get polygraphs wrong...I think real polys are MUCH more stressful if presented the way they really go. Boring yes or no questions add more tension than people pretending to interpret random questions on the fly.

Either way, the bug stuff was funny too...so...someone tells you your place is bugged, why even bother looking? I mean, just assume its all bugged and stop being such an obvious idiot. For crying out loud, don't go TAMPERING with the damn things, they are audio devices after all...like, constantly opening and closing the bottom of that bird is going to be pretty obvious when someone listens to the cut from that time period.

They seem to be getting into the weeds a bit, hope they pull through.

Oh, and was that a different woman painting? I don't remember the last having longer curly hair...

Just take it on blind faith? If I was Will I would've checked too, just to satisfy my own curiosity.

Its not blind faith, its some weird ass dude telling you your place is bugged. You know you've already been followed around and you believe your father in law was killed. Not to mention that people are planting messages in newspapers...pretty safe to just act as though your private spaces aren't "private"...

Yes but at this point there are very few people he trusts, for better or worse. Kale is not one of these people.

Yes, it could also be her.

I think the director is secretly a member of SF. In one ep (4?) I heard the word "sartorial", saw a pic of Che in the background, and one other coincidence. Ah yes, they ask "who actually goes on a cruise"?

 

[Joffrey]

Its funny, I have little no idea whats going on in the show yet I watch it every weekend. I think I only missed the first 2 episodes but I started watching because I figured there was something in it I was missing. Still don't know what it is.

Actually, there's so much going on that, without further details, it's hard to tell you what you haven't caught on to yet! Are the episodes online? The first two are slower than the others (though i still liked them), but they set up everything else very nicely.
