Stitchers 3x1 Out of the Shadows

Season 3 has finally arrived... a year later
but as you can see I am over my angry towards this particular event. This episode was titled Out of the Shadows and that is exactly what Stitchers did. It came back from the dead and decided they weren't done yet. I enjoy the show and can't wait to see what the season has in store. I'm warning you now this has spoilers from this episode and the season before.

First thing first, here is a promo to the season to come
Looks to be the season we all have been waiting for. Amazing right?

This episode was filled with back to back action. Every second was filled with something new. The episode starts off with Kristen still in her memory of her mom. For us it has been a year, for the team in the lab it has only been 3 long days. They have been trapped in the lab because some genius thought it would be a good idea to release Blair and his NSA goons from the interrogation room.

It takes three attempts to wake Kristen. The first attempt was last season which was when Cameron took over his younger self from the stitch in an attempt to make Kristen bounce.

IT DIDN'T WORK but he looks adorable while he tries Their second attempt was to reboot the the whole system in an attempt to force Kristen out of the stitch. That also DID NOT WORK. At this point everyone is ready to go home and temper are on the rise. Maggie wants to see her son and Linus really needs to know what happened to his dad. Someone seriously needs to tell him. The team takes a second to regroup  after the second attempt doesn't work. While discussing they realize that they need to ask Fisher about some very important questions about his interview Ivy (Kristen's half-sister). So the goons get Fisher from the interrogation room where they stuck him because he was being uncooperative

I have never been into Fisher but he is looking GOOD in this clip. Thank you for the eye-candy. I truly appreciate it. When it turns out that Fisher and his team didn't ask Ivy directly about Stinger's technology they send in Linus to get the rest of the answers. Sadly, he fails at this task but he gets Ivy's smart watch which he then uses to call his mother to find out about his father. Sadly, his father passed while they were trapped in the lab and he also missed the funeral. Of course, he couldn't let anyone know in fear they would ask him how he found out but he did tell Camille. I'm sure you can see from the promo that my short lived dreams from Camille and Linus being a thing are in the dust.
(Anyone else feeling major feels right now. Seriously, why did I pick this gif...)

Moving on, the team makes one finally attempt to wake Kristen up by hijacking Kristen's mom from her memory. There is an up and down to this. On the plus side Kristen wakes up. On the down side she wakes up in tears. Cameron woke her up violently. I don't even want to talk about it, you can just watch.

Understandably it makes sense if Kristen is angry after this because there are no words. Yes, it was necessary but talk about hitting where it hurts.

Later, Kristen wakes up alone in her house with her sister Ivy left to fill in the gaps. Kristen finds out that the team was taken so what does she do. She, without thinking, goes to Blair and tries to get her team back. Kristen again threatens to leave the program if she doesn't get the team back. However, Blair doesn't believe her because once again he was hiding the truth from her. Guess what, Kristen's mom is alive and Blair is hiding her. Now we know from last season that Kristen's mom was kept in some kind of stasis pod. It turns out that Blair has Kristen's mom alive in some sort of coma. Kristen's mom was working on a project to advance the evolution of the brain. It worked so now the government wants it. Blair explains that all the stitches so far were training so that one day she can stitch into her mom, get the technology and bring her back.

So just to sum up, everyone that Kristen thought was dead is actually alive and the only truly dead person in her life is Ed- the man who raised her.

Since, Blair won't give Kristen back her team, she decides to take them for herself. She finds them with the help of Ivy and Tim using Ivy's smart watch. She breaks them out using false identity and 3-D printed fingerprints. She gets all the way to their room only to find out they are chilling comfortably in the room

They make it all the way outside then get caught by the cops who basically just send them back to their room. Then, guess who asks for a favor... Blair. His son died and he needs the team to stitch into him. Of course, no one wants to but Maggie convinces them it will be okay. In the stitch Kristen sees her dad and finds out that he killed Blair's son in order to give her a message. Anyone else feeling like Stinger may be a little crazy? Anyway, Kristen is reasonably hesitant to give Blair all the information but then her holds a gun the Camille's side so Kristen spills all that she saw. In the stitch Kristen also found a way to save her team.

Kristen once again uses a false identity to get a meeting with the Admiral aka Blair's boss. She blackmails the Admiral into getting her team back, removing Blair and returning her mom. The Admiral agrees in-order to keep the Stitchers Program a secret.  In the end Kristen get the team back, Blair is removed and Maggie is the new head of the program.

Now the point we have been waiting for the last 3 seasons. I don't even want to talk about it. Just watch!!!

FINALLY!!!!

Honestly, this was a "drop the mic" moment but we have to question who said "You can't help if you're stuck in here". My guess is on the mother. If you notice there is a second when Kristen's mom goes calm. I believe that is when Kristen's mom takes control of the stitch and tries to rescue her daughter from her husband's idiotic plan. If you want re-watch the clip above. See if you can spot it.

And that ends the episode. Like I said filled with drama. Hopefully all the secrets are now "out of the shadows". I can't wait to see what this show has planned.

Here is a promo to the next episode

See you next week
