Samaritan's Drivers
1 March 2024
Reese and Finch are locked in a jail in Colorado for fighting each other outside the bar. Root saves Finch, Shaw and Claypool, but is captured by Hersh. Control tortures her severely, but she manages to escape with the support of The Machine. Meanwhile, Finch, Claypool and Shaw head to the bank where the drivers of the Samaritan are stored in a safe deposit box. Out of the blue, Shaw sees the Vigilance arriving and Finch locks Claypool, the Bank Manager and himself in the vault. But immediately after, Hersh and his team arrive at the bank. Finch convinces Claypool to destroy the drivers and discloses to his friend that Nathan and he have built a machine. When Collier prepares to blow-up the vault, there is a havoc in the bank with the confrontation of the Vigilance and Hersh and his men. Shaw heads to the vault to save Finch and Claypool, but they are surprised by Hersh and his men.

"Aletheia" is an episode of "Person of Interest" where the connection of Root and The Machine is showed to Control. The plot of "Person of Interest" has begun with an interesting idea of two men saving ordinary people considered irrelevant by the government. But now, the plot is complicated, with a nasty character as a lead one and an international intrigue of agencies interested in the device. The idea of an Artificial Intelligence "growing up" is interesting but its connection to Root is messy. In addition, Hersh kills lots of people because Reese did not kill him in other episodes. Now, irrelevant people have been forgotten. My vote is eight.
