Person of Interest - Mission Creep

The third episode of the best new show on TV premiered, and continued the strong start to the new series. Mission Creep is an episode following Reese as he infiltrates a bank robing gang in order to save one of its members. The gang is a unit of soldiers from Afghanistan, led by a former Marine. The man who's number came up, Joey, is in the gang because he feels guilty of letting one of his fellow soldiers do his partol, which ultimately led to his death. Joey feels guilt, and he is using his share of the money to pay for the soldier's daughter to be put through school. The episode continued the upward trend this show has been producing the past three episodes. It had a great mix of action and drama, and a heartwrenching story of a man who is in over his head, dealing with bad people for a good cause. At the end of the episode, the show gives us a thread that can later be built upon, the name M. Elias, who has a connection to the deaths of the gang.
