    I loved Sidwell's little scene with Willow! She is so out of her depth
    with him, yet she gives off a vibe of evil desperation that Sidwell in
    his arrogance appears not to have picked up. To his later regret, I
    predict.

    Willow might not want Drew dead any longer (very odd for a psycho to go
    soft on their victim), but Sidwell doesn't care if Drew dies. He even
    suggested to Willow that her problem would be solved if she put a pillow
    over Drew's face or overdosed him on "stroke medication." If Sidwell is
    so irritated by having to listen to Willow whine about Drew, why not
    just kill Drew himself and be done with it? He's far less likely to
    botch it than she is. BTW, it seems to me that having to dose Brennan
    with the stroke medication at a remote facility would be a huge
    logistical problem for Willow. But she only mentioned that she was
    dosing Brennan at Turning Woods as an aside to Sidwell, as if the
    facility were an annex to her house.

    Exit Sidwell and enter Chase. Weepy Willow invites him inside so she can
    whine to him about her really bad awful horrible day and he can console
    her by not rubbing her feet. You'd think he'd hesitate walking into a
    room where mysterious strokes in healthy young-ish men had occurred, but
    no! Brave Chase walked right inside to console Willow with an embrace,
    and to be seen doing by his window-peeping wife, who later warned Willow
    off by telling her that if she so much as breathes on Chase again it
    will be the last breath she takes. Sounded like a death threat to me.
    Poor Congresswoman Willow P Tait, to be confronted so late in life with
    the awful truth that actions sometimes have unintended consequences.

    Agreed. He's a dangerous international criminal, but Willow is a
    cult-trained woman who has demonstrated she is more than willing to use
    lethal force if she feels cornered.
    And I believe he is going to regret underestimating her. That should be
    an entertaining turn of events.

    It seems Willow is still relying on Nina to inject the drug, not
    recognizing that Nina can't be depended on to do that. I wonder how
    Willow will react when she finds out Nina has failed her, again.

    It was an extreme reaction by Brook Lyn, but kind of justified. Almost.
    Brook Lyn is apparently still insecure about her relationship with
    Chase, and Chase's relationship with Willow. That is completely understandable, given the history.
