Quantico Season 1 Episode 9 "Guilty" Review
After turning herself into the FBI, Alex is aggressively interrogated to confess about who really bombed grand central. New evidence is uncovered that might lead to Alex's freedom. Back at Quantico, the group investigates serial murderers.
This was a really exciting and great episode. All the people who just want Alex to confess instead of actually listening to what she has to say is a little scary because it seems so realistic because when a tragedy happens a lot of the time people just want a confession and have everything just come to a close. I did like the fact that everyone seemed to be so determined to get Alex back that they were looking for any evidence to prove doubt that she might not be guilty. It was so cool because these where a lot of the same people that in the past episodes they were working so had to prove her guilty. The serial murder cases that they work on was really cool but also a little weird in how that whole story plot went about. Overall this was a really great episode with a lot of twists to it.

Quantico Season 1 Episode 8 "Over" Review
In the future, the FBI computer system is hacked and confidential files go public, leading Alex to the conclusion that a second bomb is in play somewhere in NYC. Back at Quantico, the recruits are given individual assignments, only to realize they are all connected as part of a lesson to look about the bigger picture.
This was a really great episode to reset and have characters switch sides, and be removed from the picture for awhile. Nimah and Raina have fully established themselves as separate members of the team but their was that really struggle for people trying to decipher who's personality is Nimah's and which is Raina's. and the twins also have to keep up the struggle of the rest of the recruits might know there secret but they still have to keep it up outside of Quantico base in order to keep their cover in tack for their future work. Caleb is really starting to pull away more and more from his dad and I am really starting to wonder if the whole government wanted to take Alex down as some kind of revenge against her dad and possibly her mom after what this episode reviled but that would also seem a little weird. This show is doing a really good job at keeping it seem like all of the recruits could be guilty of the bombings instead of Alex and I find that amazing that they have all this stored up material that they can sneak into a shot here and their. Over all this was a really amazing episode and I can't wait to seem what the next on might bring.

Quantico Season 1 Episode 7 "Go" Review
An explosive assignment results in some new agent trainees being sent home; as Alex continues working to clear her name, she encounters Raina and Nimah, who provide more questions than answers.
This was a really good episode with the main focus being on the twins. In this episode it was also the trainees midterm where mass amounts of the trainees where sent home. I really liked the whole lock-down scene and the group have to disarm a bomb, and the whole thing ending with the lesson "If you're not willing to die for your country what are you doing here." I'm not a big fan of the fact that they let Caleb back in training to become an agent, because it is mostly to stretch out his relationship with Shelby as long as possible. I really like the fact that the whole class now knows Raina and Nimah are a thing so I can't wait to see what the nest episode brings with that. Raina and Nimah's mission in the more current timeline was very interesting and also sweet that Nimah didn't want to put her sister in a situation she wasn't comfortable with. It is a little weird that everyone seems so determined to catch Alex but then when they come face to face with her they change there mind and let her go. Over all I really enjoyed this episode.

Quantico Season 1 Episode 6 "The God" Review
The NATs practice surveillance with Miranda and her troubled son; Shelby tries to keep Caleb at arm's length, while Raina allows Simon closer; Alex gets help when she tries to hack an FBI computer.
This was a great episode with a lot of twists to it. So in this episode they are mostly looking for ways to prove Caleb is guilty of the terrorist attack, but they end up finding a lot of things they didn't want to. Miranda and her son kind of board me with there "tension" that I feel is kind of an unnecessary story part, but I do recognize it might be important in the future. All the relationship drama in this episode also got a little annoying because it seemed extremely unrealistic. The ending of this episode I kind of expected but kind of didn't and now I'm very curious to find out it this was the major mission Miranda was preparing the twins for or what happened. Over all I really enjoyed this episode, but it did also get a little long.

Quantico Season 1 Episode 5 "Found" Review
Alex and Ryan get close when the trainees leave campus for their first undercover assignment; Alex tells her side of the story in a public interview.
I really really loved this episode there was so much goodness in it. I loved the whole team going out and creating these new fake identity to go undercover with to then just have the head guy go, "when in the field you have to come up with a new identity on the spot." And then he makes them all switch right before walking into where they would be trying to hold there cover. The whole idea between Caleb and Shelby I don't really care for it just seems like unnecessary future drama. the whole interview with the hacker before they were willing to put her on the web was a really interesting idea that I like because those hackers really where looking for the truth. I also like that Shelby is now on her side with trying to prove her innocent which at the end of this episode it led to a person I didn't expect. Over all I really enjoyed this episode a lot and I can't wait for more.

Quantico Season 1 Episode 4 "Kill" Review
A hostage rescue-training exercise makes Alex question whether she should leave Quantico; Alex finds a clue that puts the innocence of one of her closest classmates into question.
This was a very entertaining episode that I really did enjoy. I feel really bad for Alex in this episode because she is given all this information about her father but then no time to mentally work through it all. So then her mental state in the field severely separated her from the rest of the team which caused many problems for everyone. I do enjoy the fact the twins are back together because I really want to see what will happen with them. I love the little gun show down at Shelby's place and I really want to know what happens next to them. Over all I really enjoyed this episode and it was so good time just flew by while watching it.

Quantico Season 1 Episode 3 "Cover" Review
Alex receives information about her father and his past at the FBI; the recruits learn the art of profiling.
This was a really great but sad episode. Alex is given a file of information about her father and it turns out to not be what she wanted. All the recruits have to psychoanalyze each other which in the end brings out the worse in everyone. Alex's mother admits to believing that Alex is a terrorist which is probably the saddest scene of them all. And the twins get into a big augment on whether or not they wish to continue, which ended in a way I was kind of expecting. Everything was done at great artistic design, and the speed of this episode was really great. Like I said in past episodes I'm not a big fan of double crossers which this show seems to be full of them so that bugs me a bit. But over all this was a really great episode.

Quantico Season 1 Episode 2 "America" Review
Alex must get into her apartment and find something that could clear her name, but first has to outsmart Liam and his team.
This was a really great second episode fully of mind tricks. I'm still not a big fan of the whole flipping back and forth between the two time periods for this show. But it does work at showing the lessons Alex learned at Quantico and now her using them in real life. I enjoyed the analysis of the rooms task that they did in this episode and I'm happy to see Celeb back with them.I'm very curious to see the stories behind all the other potential agents and how they add into the story. I'm not a big fan of the ending of this episode because I don't care for double crossers. But over all this was a really goo and intense episode.

Quantico Season 1 Episode 1 "Run" Review
One of the diverse recruits -- the best and the brightest -- who arrives at the FBI Quantico Base for training is suspected of masterminding a terrorist attack.
This was a very good first episode to introduce a lot of the characters and held up to the expectation I was hopping for it. I love the idea that you meet the terrorist as one of the main characters and they only give you just enough information that you have to figure out who the criminal is as well. This is another show that I kind of wish wasn't told in flashbacks, but instead you see the whole back story in time and then move onto this other story about the terrorist attack. This show is also very willing to kill off main people, with getting ride of two of them just in the first episode. I'm very exited to see what they'll do in the next episode and for me at least every character seems to be fully willing to be the master criminal in disguise.
