The episode was slow. The dialog was dry. The acting was poor. The plot lines were contrived. It was an extremely poor choice for a finale. If the producers want to highlight the humanity of the characters, or they want to grow the series into something more than a international espionage thriller, they have to find a way to weave these elements into each episode. They can't just abruptly shift to those themes in a season finale and almost entirely ignore the gut-wrenching plot lines of the current season. The only reason that this episode earns a two star rating instead of one star, and the only redeeming quality that makes it worth watching at all, is the complex situation involving Saul and Dar Adal's deal with the devil. Overall, a disappointing betrayal of the devoted fans.
