I can't quite figure it out. Will lets Karen the cell leader go, and this is the thanks he gets! She knows he isn't the one who killed her daughter. You'd think, after what happened at the safe house, that they'd try making contact and seeing if he could be recruited rather than having him whacked - along with his whole family. WTF? Apparently no good deed goes unpunished.

i know, right! will has to get tougher. also the mother should have tried to use will before she tried to kill his family. looking forward to seeing how the bowman family get out of this mess.

Yeah that was a shock! I was surprised to learn that she was the "cell leader", and then they try to kill his family? Although I'm not sure she "knows he isn't the one who killed her daughter". I don't remember him saying that he wasn't the one who actually killed her (sorry for the double neg). Didn't he just say he was there but noncommittal on what happened?

And I sure hope we see more of Snyder. Love love that character.

I tell ya, I only started watching this show because of Josh being in it (my favorite character from Lost) but I am totally hooked on it!!

i started for the same reason too, also sarah from twd, but now i'm hooked. i like synder as well. he seems to think clearly and not jump into things. i'm really looking forward to next week's episode. i will not miss lindsey.

After he lets her go, I'm sure she knows he's not the sort of guy who would have killed her daughter. She probably realizes he was there and may have tried to stop whoever did kill her, but in the end just stood by and let it happen because ... let's face it, what was he supposed to do? Throw her over his shoulder and then shoot his way out of Homeland HQ with the girl on his back? She also knows he's got a family of his own to think about. I'm guessing she isn't being rational about the situation. She's decided that anyone who was involved in any way with her daughter's death, however passively, needs to pay. Right now Will Bowman is the only name she knows for sure.

Oh yeah! I almost stood up and applauded when Lindsey got wasted! So at least some good came out of it

After watching last week's preview I was pretty sure Charlie would be the one to kill Lindsey. That might've been even more satisfying. But no, alien Scientology girl will not be missed.

"scientology girl" is a very good description. the actress was spot on with the character.

There was a 2015 documentary called Going Clear: Scientology and the Prison of Belief, where they interviewed a number of people who were totally committed to Scientology. Some of them actually cut off communication with their own children simply because the Church labelled them subversive (or whatever their term for it was, I can't remember the exact wording). The character of Lindsey reminded me a lot of those brainwashed people. It wouldn't surprise me in the least if the actress who played her watched that same documentary and studied the behavior of the interviewees. She certainly did nail it.
