Gavin says that Commissioner Pike has gotten into Henry’s head and is manipulating him because bringing Gavin down would “skyrocket” Pike’s career. Gavin asks if Henry’s aware that Pike has been lining his pockets with developers’ dollars for years and it’s the worst kept secret in Manhattan. Henry notes that Gavin never mentioned that before, and Gavin says he didn’t want to put him in a bad spot. Henry is not convinced and wants to know why Gavin has been so nice to him and Jane. Gavin says because he sees something in Henry. But Henry rightly wants to know when he will have to pay Gavin back.
Meanwhile, eagle eye Henry spots a file on Gavin’s computer labeled “Greenpoint Project.” This show is so subtle. It might as well say “Gavin’s Top Secret File of Evil Dealings and Soul Pacts.” Henry realizes that Gavin was testing him over the Alpert deal and angrily leaves. Gavin warns that if Henry walks through that door, things will change. Henry walks out anyway.
Olivia slinks up after he leaves and says that she knows Gavin has a plan for Henry, but maybe it’s time to cut him loose.
Next day, Jane is sitting on someone’s stoop when Ingrid the shrink walks up. Jane asks about Nona, but Ingrid can’t really say anything. Jane asks her then for some general info, and Ingrid says that Nona lost both of her parents in an accident last year and is being raised by her grandmother, but her grandma is never around so she’s basically raising herself. Jane says she totally gets that because her mom died young and her dad was never around, so she and Nona are practically twins. Ingrid says that Nona needs someone she can trust and that’s clearly not her. Maybe it could be Jane.
Annie meets with Gavin by the water. She begs him for help since Kandinsky is out to kill her.
Worst Match.com date ever
Gavin reminds her that she wanted to change the world with her stories. How did that work out? He says he can get rid of Kandinsky, but she has to write one final story for him about corrupt city planning officials. She doesn’t want to because she’s already responsible for one death, but Gavin promises no innocent lives will be lost. She’s leery at first, but agrees when Gavin promises Kandinsky will never bother her again.
Olivia is leaving the Drake when Tony calls out to her. He has her diamond brooch. He says he has a bag of stolen stuff behind his desk, although he doesn’t know who put it there.
Henry is getting his mail and watches Olivia leave. He takes the key and heads up to the Dorans’ penthouse. I guess he gets the key because he is resident manager, but I really can’t believe the Dorans would give that out. But anyway, he goes right for Gavin’s computer and sticks in a flash drive. He quickly copies the Greenpoint document and then sees a file named “Henry Martin and Jane Van Veen.” Again: subtle. He copies that one too. At that moment, he hears Olivia returning because she forgot something. She enters speaking on her cell and Henry leaves via the fire escape without being caught. Unfortunately, Henry left the cap to his flash drive on Gavin’s desk. Nice job, Henry.
Oh, Henry.

the grandmother was alive?
It looks like we’re finally going to see the scene from the vision Nona had of Jane.
Nona had visions about people outside of the Drake, remember the exterminator. I wish we got more Nona she’s the most interesting character to me.
I wonder if what Gavin did was the plan Olivia was hoping for, it seems like she doesn’t like Henry.
Supernatural has taught that to get rid of ghosts you have salt and burn their remains.
I’m really starting to get worried that this show is close to jumping the shark, and I hope it was just some kid-writer that they gave a chance this one time around.
Why are some of these characters so stupid? Like Henry sneaking in to the Dorans’ apartment without worry that as rich folk they might have some security in place (although I, too, find it hard to believe that the Drakes would allow the help to have full access to their apartment like that). And it’s bad enough that Gavin’s computer was not password protected — especially with those clearly-labeled, non-protected secret files on them — but why would Henry think it would be that easy?
We could go on and on about Jane and that basement, but I could by that she’s mystically drawn to the suitcase, but why is she not even more freaked out by the ghost girl who keeps showing up? A normal human wouldn’t be trying to open a creepy suitcase from a creepy basement in the dark when there’s a creepy ghost child hanging about.
And Annie. I found myself want to scream at the TV when she shows up at her boss’ house after basically sending the assassin there. And then instead of trying to covertly suss things out, making sure that the coast is clear, she starts banging on the door and screaming his name when Kandinsky could be anywhere nearby waiting to kill them both? Dumbass! Why didn’t she just call the police with an anonymous tip (assuming that she was worried about being prosecuted for the whole false journalism thing).
Last thing, as a fan of Lost, seeing the black smoke come out of the suitcase made me think (at first) that they were doing a crossover character and bringing in the Smoke Monster as a cameo! Interesting thing is that Terry O’Quinn played the guy who was the smoke monster for part of his run on Lost.
I just hope that they clean up the plot a bit in the upcoming episodes. I can suspend disbelief, but they’re starting to stretch it just a little too far.
Why didn’t Annie just type out that Kandinsky was killed in a freak accident and submit that? Wouldn’t it have then come true and he would no longer be a threat? The pacing on the show has picked up some so that it is better. Also, I hear that the network has ordered 2 more episodes so there may be hope for it not being cancelled yet! Great recap, btw!
why didn’t annie morgan just go to the COPS, instead of running alone to her editor’s house? what a dumbass.
does anyone else think henry is dumb/annoying? i don’t like him. i think jane should just ditch him & go live somewhere less evil (although that would end the show). but, come on, you can do better!
so, i don’t get this press pass deal — they don’t just let press into events without question, do they? i mean, i don’t work in the media, so i don’t know, but it would seem that if anything they’d tell you to leave if you showed up announced with a press pass more quickly than if you just showed up unannounced for no reason.
meh, i don’t know about this show. i keep watching it because it’s “interesting,” but it also annoys me at least half the time.
