The Truth & Nothing But the Truth (4.4)


(written July 8th)

7:05

-Wahoo, April is back! What happened to her grungy tattoo artist looks? Regardless, she looked great (and evil and freaky) !

-A truth ability, how sweet! That's one that I've always wanted to have.

-And Kyle helping Isabelle?! What the heck is up with that?! I can't wait for more of them together though.

-Di finally found April. Things should get interesting, especially with April's ability.

7:19

-Oh man, this episode rocks!

-NTAC questioning if Kyle was the one to give Shawn the extra Promicin boost. That can only mean bad news, especially once Washington gets involved.

-Kyle lying to his father about it, I don't know, I think he's put himself in a bind. Glad to see the guilty look on his face though once he stepped outside.

-Ben shaved his beard. I guess I can get used to that. I don't blame him for pressuring Diana though. He just wants her to be happy like she was when they were in Spain.

-I'm glad that Di is hesitant though. I think she finally realizes how much she missed her job (and Tom) and she doesn't want to leave.

-Didn't expect Collin to get shot. If anything I thought he would steal all of the stuff April bought and leave her hanging dry.
7:27

-So that was the favor Tom asked of Marco: to test the hair sample and see if it was positive for Promicin. Still can't believe Tom did that to Kyle. He's gonna freak (they both will: Tom for finding out the truth about his son & Kyle for finding out his father knows)

-And I still can't believe the Senator wants Shawn to run for city council. It's so good because as Kyle said, it will put the 4400 on the map. The downside is that the Senator wants Shawn on it so he can go against Collier.

-Glad Diana confided in Tom about April. She needed to get it off her chest. And once again, another great example of how much their friendship has grown.

7:39

-I am confused about Isabelle onces again (I was confused about her in season 3 and now again in season 4.) This is fun! I like being confused because it makes the show even better. They give us choices and they don't decide for us.

-Shawn Farrell vs. Jordan Collier. Things are sure going to get interesting.

-I can't believe people in the Pentagon have a lot to do with the black mailing. Sure does put that age old question back into play: Can we trust our government? (the obvious answer being no)

-Definately a great episode so far!

-And I love the pairing up with Tom, Diana, and April and how they've become an investigative team to find out the truth about what happened to Collin.

7:48

-Man this is awesome!

-Kyle & Shawn had a blow out, how sweet! I do see things from Kyle's point of view though: Shawn is a traitor. I support the 4400 and the Promicin Positives so I do not agree with what Shawn is doing. And Kyle is right because Shawn is a traitor to Collier and to himself. Shawn is a 4400 and he's pretty much going against the whole thing! He so did not deserve to be taken.
-Shawn may not be under Collier's control but now he's under the control of the Senator and he can't even see that.

-I do admit I like where Shawn's storyline is going though. It's very interesting and a nice way to go (despite not even knowing where the writers are taking this).

-Poor April, having to be taken in by NTAC after getting a confession out of the guy. At least she didn't seem angry at Diana.

8:00

-Okay I absolutely loved Diana's little blow out to Tom and Doyle! It was so hilarious as to how she was ranting on and on and not letting Doyle get a word in until finally Diana stopped her ranting and Doyle told Di that they would be hiring April instead of having her go to prison.

-How cool is it that April has a job at NTAC now?! I thought that was really an awesome deal. She will have a job as well as use her ability. She's got her own personal body guards, a decent salary, health benefits, and a seperate salary for clothes. I'm glad that April is now happy and has something good going on in her life.

-I was sad for Diana and Ben. I really hope Maia's vision comes true and they get married but now I'm starting to have doubts. Which I guess now is okay since I squealed so badly during the scene where April asked Tom if he had ever had sexual fantasies about Diana. (my Tom & Diana shipperness shows!) And the look on Di's face was priceless!

-I can't believe Isabelle was able to translate the book. At least now we know that it wasn't future humans who wrote it.

-Tom is supposed to take the shot! I couldn't believe it! He can't die right? Please I hope not.
-And the father: who could that really be? God? or something else?

End Notes

-I am rating this episode a 10+ ! It really deserves it!

-Jacqui and Natasha work great along side each other.

-And Natasha's acting was incredible. I've liked her since she was first brought on and her acting skills were great but tonight her acting just completely blew me out of the water!

-Way to go to the other actors as well. Everyone did a tremendous job!

- And to Scott Peters: Without you and your brilliant mind, I would probably watching something boring at 7 pm on my Sunday nights. Congrats and beyond terrific job in directing tonight's episode. It was truly an amazing ride!

-I look forward to more of "The 4400" to come!
