It seemed as though it started out a little slow, but definitely didn't wind up that way.
I actually had tears in my eyes when they showed the arch in St. Louis with the Nathan James coming into port, and we could hear the cheering of the crowds, and then the scene where the crew was spreading the cure around to the crowd. Enjoyed seeing Chandler actually smile in the scene with the children. And totally enjoyed it when a woman in the crowd kissed that one sailor, and various members of the crew were enjoying his embarrassment.
I agree that there should have been some kind of guards on the place, given that the President of the United States was staying in the hotel. Just because the cure had been distributed didn't mean that everyone who was out to get them had disappeared.
And on that note, did they just let McDowell go after he asked if a pardon was still available, or was he still on the ship? Did his henchman act on his own when he shot Rachel or did McDowell tell him to do it?
I'm wondering what this does to the command structure of the Nathan James with Chandler being promoted to Secretary of the Navy (or whatever it was he was promoted to). Does Slattery finally get his own command?
Loved Tex's storyline with finding his daughter. Now he won't be leaving; he's probably going to stick around and help with the recovery efforts.
I do not think Rachel is dead. I think the guy was hasty when he aimed and fired at her, and I think he hit her in the shoulder because she reached for her right shoulder as she fell. The next question is who is going to find her? Or will she manage to get herself to someone to help her?
Interesting that neither Chandler's or Slattery's injuries were mentioned in this episode. That piece of metal is still in Chandler's body waiting to be removed. And I thought Slattery might have his arm in a sling since he got shot in his left arm in the last episode.

The only other question I have is:
Spoiler:
Are Green and Kara going to be allowed to get married? They're still technically in the same chain of command. What's that going to mean for them? Is she (or he) going to leave the ship? What effect will the vaccine have on the baby?
