Burn Notice

[Matt]

Sam channelling his inner-Caruso was great.

So who does everyone think is on the plane? I'm thinking its an old character. However, they've promised a big suprise when they showed him. Who do we know who would fit the profile? I'm thinking Carla is somehow alive, but the body looked more like a male build (though we only saw shoulders and up and prison oranges can be misleading) or Victor. John Mahoney's character is a possibility as well, but how did he go from being the head of that secret organization to a top secret prisonor in a matter of months?

Yes! Not once, but twice! Love Sam.

So great.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Is that what he was doing? It was clearly a bit, but I didn't know where it was coming from. I still found it funny in a very goofy kind of way, though.

 

[wiegeabo]

"Call it."

"Heads."

"Cheater."

Best delivery of a line ever.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

I'm surprised Mike stuck with the party. He doesn't even like parties, and it would've made Sam so happy to schmooze with the models.

 

[Gilpesh]

Maybe he thought that Sam would schmooze a bit too much and miss something.

The Sam Caine moments are for sure avvy worthy.

The way he spoke once those sunglasses start sliding on cracked me up, especially the second time.

 

[wiegeabo]

Try as I might, I could not get a gif of the second time to work.

No problemo, thanks for the gif man.

Alright, here's my theory. Man on the plane is Victor. He survived Michael's shot and was imprisoned by the organization that burned Michael. So why is Gilroy going after him? Answer: Gilroy is not evil. Everything Michael and Sam know about Gilroy is fiction. Just like everything Jason Bly thought he knew about Michael was fiction. Gilroy is the original Michael Westen, a burned spy trying to take down John Mahoney's character and his organization and he realizes Victor could be a part of that.

Long shot, I know, but its my guess.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

That would be cool and quite a twist. If Gilroy is faking it, though, he certainly seems to enjoy the lie.

 

[Swordmaster]

I'd be torn on the whole Victor thing (assuming, of course, it is Victor). I'd love it if it were him because Michael Shanks is awesome, especially as Victor. But he had such a well-done send off that bringing him back would cheapen it.

 

[wiegeabo]

And I'm not sure how Victor could survive a bullet in the heart.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

It does seem a bit odd that someone as experienced as Michael wouldn't notice if his killshot didn't actually kill Victor, and he was right next to Victor at the time, so it's not like Victor could've convincingly faked it.

Carla, on the other hand, was killed by a sniper shot, far away from Sam, Fi, Mike, and anyone in Management...

hmm can anyone remember the haitian war lords/dictator name in season 2 ?

 

[Trainwreck2100]

watch it be his dad

 

[TheCorpulent1]

But, much like Batman's parents, Mike's dad is deeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaad!

 

[Kaleb]

wouldnt suprise me if its this guy.

however aparently its going to be this guy

Spoiler

A scary-smart guy named Simon, played by Garret Dillahunt (played Cromartie/John Henry on Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles; http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0226813/), who becomes Michael's new client

Did we ever hear about how his dad died though ? They could always say he faked his death because he was working for that organization that burned Mike.

 

[Kaleb]

no thanks I cant stand most of michaels relatives, I dont need his dad coming back from the dead.

Don't mind spoiling it for myself cause I remember early on it was reported he would join the cast.
