"I'm only in it for the dog" "YOU GUYS HAVE A DOG!?" dialog
A_Different_Drummer11 January 2015
Kids and small animals, according to Hollywood lore, will upstage you every time.

POI finds it mojo again with one of the most fun episodes of the series.

Great opener with the ever-bored agent Shah saving an innocent by shooting the bad guy standing behind him with 3 shoots -- this is a great little detail -- leaving 6 bullet holes in the innocent's coat ... because he was wearing it at the time! Seriously cool.

Its all a hoot from there as the team saves a precocious little girl who thinks she is a spy.

Lots of cross arcs with threads from earlier episodes.

But it is the girl, well played by Danielle Kotch, that makes this episode fun.

Ten out ten. More fun than a barrel of hammers.

Incredible
akhanna-2823824 May 2017
This was an incredible episode,amongst the finest POI episodes,i would say. The little girl is excellent,everyone would love her and there is a lot of depth in this episode. Carter is a smartass by the way. The cliff hanger at the end was icing on the cake. Better than watching an action film. 10/10

One of my fave episodes out of 5 seasons of PoI
beegalindo12 June 2021
Each of the characters, heroes and villains, have shining moments in this episode, but particularly Detective (or temporarily demoted Officer) Carter, played by Taraji Henson.

Messing with Carter only put the fire in her to track down and destroy the dirty cops. The scene in the 'HR' bar with new partner Laskey is one of Carter's baddest-ass moments of three seasons with the series. Using Laskey's newly purchased, chrome .45 to shoot the bartender, and to let him know that she now owns him, is just poetic!

I am a fan of Taraji Henson, her acting in this episode shows why.

The Little Spy and The Conversation
claudio_carvalho28 February 2024
After saving the attendant of a van with organ for donation from being robbed, Finch talks to Shaw asking her to be more polite with the victims. Meanwhile, Carter is chasing the HR, and witness a meeting of Simmons, Terney and Yogorov. Reese meets Carter and she explains that she has evidence to put many corrupt cops in jail, but she wants to find the boss of HR to finish the organization. The Machine delivers to Finch the green card number of a Russian immigrant named Genrika "Gen" Zhriova. Reese visits Gen and learns that she is a ten-year-old girl that wants to be a spy. She lives with her addicted cousin since her grandfather died. Gen is going to school and Shaw and Reese follow her, avoiding that a van with armed criminals kidnap her. The criminals follow Gen and Shaw, and the girl shows a hideout in the ventilation shaft to protect them Soon Shaw learns that Gen has bugged telephone lines from several apartments in the building and recorded the conversation in tapes. She learned with her grandfather who was a KGB. The kidnappers introduce gas in the ventilation and while fleeing, Gen is kidnapped and Shaw is wounded in the shoulder and knocked out. Shaw succeed to escape from the car's trunk and kill her captor, and Finch asks her to go to the doctor. However, she has created a bond with Gen and decides to retrieve the girl at any cost. In flashbacks from 1993, the viewer sees how hard-hearted she was since she was a kid. Carter finds that HR wants to introduce a cheaper new drug while following Terney. But her rookie is feeding HR with information about her.

"Razgovor" is a great episode of "Person of Interest", but there is a specific part that I did not like: Reese could have killed or crippled Simmons while looking for Gen. But he prefers to fight instead. The last scene of Root and Shaw could have been resolved many episodes before, but Reese and Shaw leave the psychopath alive. Carter is a smart cop and I like the scene in the bar. My vote is nine.

Silliest episode in a good while
namstonk28 March 2021
I'm sorry but the Shaw character is getting so silly, yes it's implausible fiction, but c'mon high heels, dead stealthy? Shot, but accepts all blood donation? Seasoned spy, but gets caught in a confined space because she followed a kid? If you need to have one of those type in TV make it plausible, not just lame filler for the character.
