Warning: Full spoilers for the episode follow…
The Following ran us through another rudimentary “cat and mouse” episode, where, for the second time in as many weeks, the FBI and Joe’s followers converged on the same target with deadly results. But then, the last five to ten minutes threw us for a loop, giving us some nice, bloody surprises including Joe getting stabbed by Claire and McDonovan getting attacked and stabbed in the eye by a surrendering acolyte.
Making things a bit more interesting here was the fact that the target both sides were after was Roderick, who, after a violent falling out with Joe (“There’s something you’re not telling me!”), kidnapped Joey. That’s right. Joey has now been kidnapped from his kidnapper by an even worse kidnapper. Double-kidnapped. Kidnapception! The bright side of this was that it all ended with Joey getting set free by Jacob; the rotten side was, of course, watching Joey get nabbed again. And captured kids act predictably on TV – like when Joey didn’t stay put in the room when after Mike told him to.
