At his best, Joe Carroll hadand still hassillage.
For me, Gregg Henrys Dr. Arthur Strauss doesnt, and never did.
Joe tells Ryan that Strauss will probably seek out an ally to lean on.
When Ryan exits, Carroll says, Tell me something, Ryan.
Your dreams…am I in them?
I genuinely got chills for the first time since…well, seasons ago.
I guess when it comes to Carroll, absenceand a return to Carrolls original menacemakes the heart grow fonder.
A scene or two later, shes out of the hospital and on the couch with Tom.
Could the writers at least have slowed her recovery?
Gwen still seems shady; she seems overly pushy that Ryan is holding things back from her.
Would be such a letdown if she were truly involved, again.
Allison Mack (Smallville) makes an appearance as Hilary, a police officer in Beacon.
As a formerSmallvilleobsessive, it was really nice to see Mack thrive.
Mike, Ryan and Hilary check for bodies in Beacon, and chase a guy in the woods.
Remember that Ryan is supposed to have a pacemaker?
Its almost as if the writers have completely abandoned that once all-important detail.
Mike and Ryan find skeletons buried in the woods, all of which have their teeth and fingers removed.
Find out that Duncan is the killer of the bodies Ryan and Mike had found in the woods.
The first victim was Duncans wife, decades ago, who was never reported missing.
Surprisingly, its actually a really intriguing subplot to Reunion.
And to top it off?
Theo is a family man who comes home to a wife and kids at the end of the day.
Daisy, who Theo spares, also seems to be making her life anew.
Tom, whos still spying on Max via the computer that he stole from Mark, hears this line.
He not only knows Max cheated on him, but has dirt on Mike as well.
This really could go anywhere.
