    I'm curious to find out just why Patient 0 is so happy that the virus worked so well, and is now so happy to be with the group that wants to destroy the cure.

    Pretty cool when they found out how many pockets of survivors there were all around the world.

    God complex, these people obviously have a natural immunity, perhaps he see's himself as a leader of the New World Order.

      Finally caught it online this morning. I loved the turmoil both the Xo and Co felt in whether to continue the mission, or leave and stay home. I also loved the 'mother's comments' to her daughter about knowing her 'friend was more, and that she was pregnant.

      Also liked the cut scenes to the camp with our new crazy group.

        Caught tonights and rather liked it. Loved the inclusion of 2 new members for the 'assault squad', but felt the XO's running of the ship was a little lacking not already having some one on overwatch with a sniper rifle or on one of the mark 42s.

          For those who have an interest in such things in regards to the class of vessel we see right at the end:
          Spoiler:
          That would be an Astute class attack submarine. One of the most advanced and quietest attack subs ever fashioned by man... It's a seriously scary thing to think of hunting the Nathan James.
          Please do me a huge favour and help me be with the love of my life.

            Spoiler:
            As important as the technical capabilities of the Astute class might be, more important is who is operating the sub. Since that's the newest generation of subs for Great Britain, it's likely being operated by the British, who are not likely to be hostile towards the NJ. If, on the other hand, it has been stolen, the thieves may or may not know how to operate it effectively. So that makes it a question mark.

            It's also possible that the image of the Astute class is being used simply because it's not familiar to most U.S. viewers, and the sub is something totally different in the show. Again, total question mark.

              Not really. When you see the sub at the beginning with the two guys who weren't getting sick the whole crew were wearing Royal Navy uniforms.

              However, you're right to say that if the crew are not experienced submariners, then that does eliminate any advantages the Astute has.

              Nevertheless it's a fair bet they intend it to be the Astute class. When it comes to the class of ships being shown in the show they have so far been pretty accurate. Take the Russian Nuclear Battlecruiser from last season for example.

                the nathan james did seem to have trouble detecting it, and im sure i read that in exercises the us navy have struggled to detect astute class subs, I doubt there could have been many other immune people trained on the astute, but it looks like this group have other european military types so they could probably pull together a reasonable group of submariners and train them to a reasonable standard

                  From what it looked like to me, the leader of the "immune" was either the XO or one of the other officers on that sub, and when the rest died off, he took over..

                    most of what I learned about sub war fare I learned from movies, so take it with a grain of salt what I say, but from what I picked up, differences in water temp, salt content and depth, as well as hiding on the bottom, can hide you from sonar or at least confuse sonar.

                    I just hope wolf man isn't on the subs side.

                        Maybe they just didn't list the last three. They had 10 episodes last season; and given how popular the show is, it would be surprising for this to be an even shorter season.

                            Finally caught last sunday's episode. Man did it suck to see the sub get off those missiles and hear (at the end) that many of those labs got blown up. Here's hoping at least SOME made it out of the facilities.

                              at least the immune crazies didnt get hold of a nuclear missile submarine, unless maybe they did as well and we just dont know yet
