But some day, when he’s become complacent, someone else will probably come for him. She tells him that his contract has been canceled–there’s no price on his head anymore–for the moment. Joe, she takes as a hostage, making him drive to nowhere good. And she takes all lives or at least, she tries to when she shows up at Caleb’s safe warehouse. Her motivation, by the way, is mostly money.

So while she and Sharla join forces to get to the elusive truth, Joubert is free to do her work. Marty, however, refuses to be anyone’s puppet and is interested only in the truth. Her purpose was to cause friction with Bob, her former love. Marty says that she’s not on anyone’s side–like Sharla, she was inserted into the investigation for a purpose. Unfortunately, she hesitates just a second and that’s enough time for Marty to sneak up on her. She knows in her bones that killing Joubert won’t turn back time, but she feels like she has to do it anyway. As a stunning shot from Deacon’s hotel room shows, there are so many people there.īut Joe feels he has to do something. I’m not sure what can happen after an announcement like that besides mass panic. I get where they’re coming from, but I don’t have faith in it. Caleb will expose the plague plan in a video. After some arguing with Janice, Joe finally gets her and Caleb onboard. Still, Joe wants to try stopping it, even if his plan isn’t as finely constructed as the cabal’s. At least, that’s what Reuel says, but as we don’t know about anyone else’s involvement beyond Deacon, we don’t know that for sure. He interrupts Reuel’s prayers to try to force him into calling off the plan, but of course, a plan of this magnitude has built-in fail-safes. That something with which Bob is certainly familiar. It’s wild cognitive dissonance–he’s participating in a plan to unleash death on real people–but at the same time, it’s probably human nature to rationalize.Īnd he works for the CIA, which means he has often had to make hard choices.

While at the Barbers’ to threaten Mae, an act he doesn’t want to do, he criticizes the violence in a movie Jude is watching. For him, it seems like his participation is urged on by his faith.

I would think there’d be some security in the camps, what with so many people, but I have also never organized a religious pilgrimage.Īs for other’s motives, we also get a glimpse toward Reuel’s this week. Luckily (for Deacon), he’s able to inject the real Ibrahim with God-knows-what. If he recognizes Deacon, which he slowly is, then it’ll really throw a wrench in the works. Unfortunately (for Deacon), the captor is also attending. That in his disguise as a devout Muslim attending the Hajj, he’s taken the name of his captor as his pseudonym is no small thing. He was held with European prisoners and ultimately forced to fight to the death for his freedom. That Deacon has certainly gone a long way toward explaining his motives for participating in the plague plan. Then again, I’ve never been a hostage to a terrorist group. I just can’t fathom what would make them go along with that plan. I just have the feeling something more could have been done, but the writers have done a really good job with difficult material and many storylines.In considering the motivations of the cabal, I’ve often found myself at a loss. I’ve continued to watch it and it has gotten better. Now that the second season is out, I’ll check it out, although the storyline of Season 1 was closed out rather effectively.īTW-a few people have commented that they were bothered by me being down on Foundation.

Dead is dead.įast-paced an in tune to the times, I recommend the series. Not many “I got shot in the shoulder and I’m okay” moments.
#Condor season 1 series
The series is pretty brutal in that characters are dispatched with regularity and little mercy again, rather realistic. The female assassin was quite fascinating even William Hurt, who has had great face work done since Goliath, is impressed with her in a bizarre way.īrendan Fraser has an interesting role as a “ cut out”. I found the storyline believable in today’s current political and ideological atmosphere. The story then moves fast with the protagonist, Joe Turner (really should have used the actor’s name, Max Irons), is a computer geek who survives the massacre at his office and then tries to uncover the real plot. An apparent terrorist plot is stopped using an algorithm developed by the protagonist and all is well, except there is that nagging problem of someone trying to make money if the plot has succeeded. A firm working for the CIA, technically part of the CIA, uncovers a pattern of stock options that exposes something much deeper going on. The idea is updated, of course, with computers being key.
#Condor season 1 tv
Now the concept has become a TV series and I watched the first season. We have to remember that Six Days of the Condor, the novel, became Three Days in the movie version.
