God, I hate this show!  So, there was a bunch of stupid this week.  But what leaped out at me was a little blink and you miss it moment that casually underlined one of my biggest problems.  While vetting Quantico applicants, there is a casual exchange about someone being a hot yoga teacher, but also twice accused of sexual harassment.  To which the response is “hot yoga indeed!”  Because, sexual harassment is hot?  As in sexy?  Ha-ha, let’s all have a good laugh?

And then later, in our big centerpiece scene, we find out that Simon was implicated in torture and, possibly, sexual assault of women when he was in the Israeli Defense League.  His defense is that he didn’t know what he was doing, he thought he was just tricking innocent women who were married to terror suspects so they would be interrogated!  Because that’s totally fine!  Even worse, he defends the actions of his superior who actually carried out the attacks!  After “what he had seen”, apparently he had an uncontrollable urge to attack women.  Because anybody is capable of assault?  It’s just a matter of the right situation?  This seems a bit like an INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS ASSUMPTION.

Also, we find out that the Muslim twins are from Lebanon, because obviously they couldn’t have been American born and raised.  And that the more conservative and traditional one was, of course, susceptible to extremist rhetoric.

I did like that one moment when everyone confronts Alex about how she uses people and then forgets them.  I know it wasn’t meant that way, but I loved it as a meta-commentary on Priyanka’s career.

PS Why is Alex Parrish suddenly deciding who and who isn’t a suspect and who is under surveillance and who can be let go free?  Is she running the FBI now, on the basis of her pretty hair and pouty lips?
