Burn Notice: Season 4 - Discussion & Spoilers

burnnotices4e13eyesopen.jpg


Michael tries to stop a lawyer who is killing gang members out of revenge. With Jesse, Michael also tries to find a stolen document.
 
YAY!

I've missed Burn Notice. Always a fun show. They need to spend more time on Sam, though. The show definitely needs more Bruce.
 
Is it just me or is the lighting for this show complete crap? In half the scenes, the actors' faces are in shadow and that early close-up of Michael was completely grainy. What gives?

I noticed this in parts tonight, though not as often as you did. I had to back up my TiVo to make sure it was Danny Pino's character that was dead on the floor in that one scene toward the end. It was too dim.

Anyway, the episode was good, I thought. I'm glad Burn Notice is back. I really like this show.
 
^God, that would be all kinds of awesome.

I've noticed that they've cut back on the "how to" moments a bit on this last one.
 
"Dexter Morgan?"
"Who wants to know?"
"I'm Michael Weston. We both have a common interest that's for the greater good of Miami."
"And what would that be?"
"Getting rid of Horatio Caine."
 
"To tail someone, you need both skill and instinct. You need skill because the driving is tough; you can't get too close and you can't drift too far away. You can't go too fast or too slow. You need instinct because every turn, every lane change, every bridge raises the risk of being seen. Anyone can be trained to follow a car, but it takes good instincts to know when it's time to stop following."

"Having a target gives me direction, a sense of purpose. I imagine this is what it must be like to be a predator out in the wild, stalking its prey, waiting for that perfect moment to pounce. But my jungle is concrete, and sometimes I have to wait while my prey is in line at the Taco Bell drive through window."

"As a spy, you're trained to spot things that seem ordinary on first glance but become more apparent when you put it into context... the telephone repair man who's taking too long to finish the job, the dog walker who's passed by the same spot several times, the jogger wearing heavy clothing in 100 degree heat, the other vehicle that's following the man I'm following."

"How do people even eat Taco Bell? Especially when there's so much better food in Miami. Cuban food. Pork sandwiches. But I'm hungry for something different now. I bet if he knew this was going to be his last meal, he would've gotten something other than a taco supreme and nachos."

"A spy must be able to react accordingly when the situation changes, but there's a difference between acting on your feet and acting without thinking. A spy must be able to gather and process as much information as possible without a second to waste. Nondescript white male, mid 30s, SUV... is he a government agent looking to take him down or a professional assassin who wants to finish the job? Wait... is that a baby seat in the back?"

"Most normal people enjoy a sacred pact with society. Live a good life and society will take care of you. But if society drops the ball then someone else has to pick up the slack. That's where I come in, a professional assassin. Wait, where did that come from?"

"Did he just hear me think?"

"Who the hell are you?"

"There are some things that even a spy who speaks 12 languages and has been on assignment in 47 different countries hasn't seen before, and this is definitely one of them."

"Hey, get out of my internal monologue!"

"No, you get out of mine!"

"This looks like a situation that's gonna be double the trouble... (puts on sunglasses) ...but not double the fun." YYYYEEEEEAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!
 
For a while I've had the idea of writing a fanfic called Alternate Miami: what if all the shows set in Miami existed in the same universe? BN, Dexter, CSI:M, Miami Vice, that other Don Johnson show, Bad Boys, others I've forgotten. Pause and imagine.

What other show? Nash Bridges was in San Francisco and that lawyer series was in Venice CA.
