While still pursuing big litigation cases, high-powered attorney Patty Hewes has been caring for her granddaughter and experiencing a second chance at motherhood. Playtime, however, ends abruptly when Patty's protégée, Ellen Parsons, asks her to join a complicated case involving a wrongful-death suit against a military contractor. But because the contractor supplies the U.S. government with security forces in Afghanistan, the company is shielded by its high-level connections in Washington, D.C., and its CEO, Howard Erickson, proves to be a formidable opponent for Patty. Ellen, meanwhile, has to make sense of the web of lies that are always present when working alongside master manipulator Patty.
In terms of putting the pieces of this season's puzzle together into a coherent picture, Wednesday's "Damages" finale did the job pretty well. I'm just not sure I really care for what that picture turned out to be.
After shunting Daniel Purcell aside and basically ignoring his part of the story for several episodes, "Damages" brought this key player back front and center in a big way this week, dropping several pieces of the puzzle into place along the way.
So, I guess that final shot on last week's "Damages" wasn't so ambiguous after all, huh? But other than that, tonight's pieces-moving-into-place episode didn't give us a whole lot.
The last act of this week's Damages packed in an awful lot of information, what with a death, more revelations about Wes and yet another tease about what happens in this season's climax. If only the rest of the episode had been as valuable.
Going to keep things reasonably short in re: Damages tonight, because I suspect that with only a few weeks left the flash-forwards and puzzle-filling bits of information are going to start coming fast and furious, which will mean lots of what we thought we knew will turn out to be wrong, or at least not right in the way we all thought it was.
We've passed the halfway point on Damages this season, and Wednesday's episode sort of felt like the writers realized that fact too and had to stuff a good deal of plot in there, from a death to a change of heart to the big flash-forward reveal we've all been guessing at since the premiere.
