666 Park Avenue Recap: The Man with the Compass Tattoo


Jane knocks on Nona’s door again. I’m sure her neighbors appreciate her banging on their doors at odd hours. Jane tells Nona that Henry’s fine and Nona saved his life. Nona pretends not to know what she’s talking about. Jane says Nona is “special” and she knows being “different” can be scary, but Nona can talk to Jane any old time. Jane leaves and we follow Nona inside her apartment, where she is saying that she should have kept her mouth shut instead of warning Henry. Oh, and Nona’s grandma is alive, albeit catatonic in a wheelchair.

Nona says that maybe she can trust Jane and that maybe Jane can help them.

Henry sadly throws the flash drive into the fireplace. I don’t like sad Henry. Also, I hope he made another copy of the files, just in case. I doubt it though. He’s really not that smart. Poor Henry. Jane comes in and says he should have told her he was in trouble. Henry says he wanted to protect her. Jane says they are supposed to protect each other.

At the mayor’s house, Pike is getting arrested and Annie is getting zipped into a body bag.

Gavin looks out over the city from his balcony. Olivia comes up and he says that he was right, Henry is a hero. And then something about everyone being allowed one mistake. Then Gavin says that he heard from “Steinberg” that the investigation on him has been suspended based on Pike’s pending indictment from the unsubstantiated story that a dead reporter made up. Olivia says sometime she forgets that Gavin can do magic. He says it’s easy when he has a lucky charm like Olivia.

Nona wraps Grandma up in a blanket as Kandinsky is loaded into a police car. Jane and Henry lie in bed. Henry asks how Jane knew that something was wrong when she yelled out to him. She says she looked up and saw the gun and she must have a sixth sense when it comes to Henry.

Nona sneaks through the hall and hangs Jane’s necklace on their doorknob.

Meanwhile, black smoke comes out of the closet and enters Jane and Henry’s bedroom. The smoke takes the shape of a man and… we are out.

Next time: Annoying Ghost Girl is back. There is a power outage and a costume party. Olivia is being held somewhere. Jane is being stalked on the fifth floor. Smoke Guy is happy to be home.

So, how are you all enjoying the show? I am liking it more and more, even though, as I keep saying, it is ridiculous. I’m glad that we are getting to see more about Nona’s background. Any speculation as to what happened to her family? I’m sure the Dorans had something to do with it.

I was also glad to get a break from the Brian/Louise/Alexis storyline because for some reason I find it boring. Also, I want more Tony.

    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.
