Person of Interest S1E17

Notes for season 1 episode 17, “Baby Blue”

11:24 Fusco clearly tells Simmons “Bite me” – but the easily offended captions transcriber instead offers “[responds unintelligibly]”

19:30 Reese follows the man he believes is the child’s father, sees him kiss another man, and immediately concludes he’s not the father. While technically correct, this is clearly bisexual erasure.

22:10 The baby is found playing with a grenade. “It’s just a tear gas grenade.” I love that this bit feels like a “My Two Dads” sitcom reboot, but where one of them is an assassin.

34:40 I can’t deal with the “kids in peril” stuff in this episode.
