Standoff – Kids in the Hall

Some observations I had throughout the show:

  • Who lets these cons have a room to themselves to plan a riot?
  • It took way to long for the place to go on lockdown
  • Oh this is just a juvie facility? Coulda fooled me!
  • Emily thinks kids are easier to talk down?
  • There’s a phone in the yard??
  • Rome, the guy in the handcuffs, is in charge?
    Fletch

  • Guess not – Nathan, the man in the bunker has guards and weapons, and that apparently trumps handcuffs
  • Cool movie reference – Fletch!
  • The new guard must have been scared watching the cons get more rowdy by the minute – and Rome was willing to take advantage of it
  • Nathan did all this to stop the juvie center from closing?
  • I don’t buy that either Nathan or Rome is under 18! But Rome was right, the guard should have known what might happen – poor rookie!
  • Then Nathan actually starts making some sense
  • Cool fight in the yard – Nathan showed who was in charge didn’t he?
  • Saving that rookie was cool – now what’s Rome gonna do to get back at him?
    Benito Martinez

  • This is the first time Matt and Emily disagreed about something related to work?
  • It’s good to see Acevada (Benito Martinez, the Senator) from The Shield is continuing to get work
  • The Senator sure is a hard nosed SOB
  • I can understand the problem with the non-violent ones in there with the violent ones
  • Emily made a good point to the Senator: “all you gotta do is listen”
  • All it takes is for one of the bad guy cons to get hold of rifle
  • At least this week it’s clear who is in charge
  • Maybe the construction company for the Supermax prison is owned by the Senator
  • The riot’s been going on for 3 days – wow
  • OMG – Emily did NOT follow Matt out! This is gonna be a problem
  • So Nathan’s not such a nice guy after all! Almost killed a guard
  • Maybe Matt and Lia can get together
  • And maybe the Senator will take Emily under his wing!
  • I wouldn’t be surprised if Rome used to be a skinhead before his hair grew back in
  • Nathan should blow Rome’s head off when he has the chance
  • Cool! The kid gets his first kill! He DID have to kill him – but now he should put down the gun and walk out
  • Oh, great – Nathan’s gonna be a martyr – can Matt talk him down before the SORT team kills him?
  • I wonder if Emily and Matt set the whole thing up so she could stay in the negotiation?

  • I guess not and this Friday is the series finale
  • Did Matt really quit?
  • Are they really taking a break?
  • Will the finale wrap things up?
