I ended up really liking 'Ties That Bind', not for the case (which wasn't really all that involving), but for the people mixed up in it. Riggs' involvement deepens because of an old friend being targeted, and it's because he's so close to this that the tension really ratchets in the third act. Speaking of Riggs, we've seen him reckless before, but not seething. And it's a startling turn. Despite the slo-mo ending explosion (Michael Bay ion the small screen), there's depth to this and it turns into something special when all is said and done.
