Throwback Thursday – Numb3rs – Two Daughters

TV Shows


Throwback Thursday is a weekly article during which we glance again at our favourite TV episodes from the previous.


Often I do know precisely what I need to write for Throwback Thursday, however this time I had a tough time deciding.  I’ve already lined a few of my favourite TV exhibits, however then I began interested by Numb3rs and the way I beloved it after I binged it this summer time.  So for this week’s Throwback Thursday, I selected “Two Daughters”, certainly one of my favorites from the collection.
“Two Daughters” initially aired on September 29, 2006 and is the second episode of season three.  Within the episode earlier than, Crystal Hoyle and her a lot, a lot youthful new husband, Buck Winters, went on a killing spree.  Buck will get arrested, after which Crystal kidnaps Megan.  At first of this episode, Crystal calls Don together with her calls for, and the crew begins working to rescue certainly one of of their very own.

Crystal has taken Megan to a dingy, previous motel room and handcuffed her to a pole that is bolted to the wall.  Crystal needs to commerce Megan for Buck so this buys Megan a while.  Whereas within the motel room, Megan tries to bond with Crystal by telling her about her previous.  She additionally asks some inquiries to attempt to determine Crystal out.  We be taught that Crystal had a child when she was 15, and he or she’s planning on discovering her daughter and getting her again.

The crew brings in Buck for questioning to see if they’ll work out the place Crystal went.  They have no luck with him, and the crew begins to panic.  Larry’s anxious and considerably aggravated at Charlie for being so calm.  Charlie explains that whereas he is fearful about Megan, too, he must be calm so he can assume.  He asks Larry to go away.

Don loses his mood, however Charlie does what he normally does and begins to determine issues out.  When Charlie goes on his tangents and does his genius factor, I normally really feel like Colby right here.  I simply look forward to him to inform everybody else what the answer is.  They discover Megan and Crystal, however then Crystal throws a grenade at their automotive and he or she takes a knife and slashes Megan’s arm and runs.  Fortunately, Megan’s okay due to the crew rescuing her shortly.  She talks with Don, Colby, and David whereas recovering on the hospital.  Megan believes that Crystal was making an attempt to guard Buck in a bizarre means.  She already failed to guard one little one and did not need to let one other one down.

Crystal finds her daughter, however after seeing her blissful together with her household, she drives away.  Megan calls Crystal, and he or she says to have Buck name her.  Whereas she’s on the telephone with Buck, Don and the remainder of the crew are in a position to observe her and discover her location.  They arrange a highway block, and Crystal does not cease.  They find yourself having to shoot her after which her automotive blows up.  I feel Megan was proper: in a bizarre means Crystal was making an attempt to guard the 2 folks she beloved most by working away.  I want she would not have died, however I suppose she determined it was higher than life in jail.  
“Two Daughters” does finish on a contented word with Megan and Larry strolling collectively across the college after which they kiss.  Don goes to go to Charlie and the 2 find yourself in a cute brotherly combat over a online game about golf.  Their dad finally ends up taking the controller and making an attempt to point out them the way it’s performed.  Lastly, the credit roll.

I like how a lot this crew cared about one another.  Numb3rs started as a present about two brothers, and sure, that was the largest relationship on the present, however all through the collection, the opposite characters, Larry, Megan, David, and Colby, all turned household as effectively.  And it is one of many few exhibits on the market that I feel all the characters are likeable.  I feel the second and third seasons are my favourite, however all of the seasons are good.  If you have not watched Numb3rs, I might extremely suggest it.  Sure, it’s a procedural, however it’s a lot greater than that.  

Favourite Quotes:
“Anybody else following this?”  “Simply nod your head and look forward to the punchline.”
“Do not underestimate how nice it’s to have anyone to return house to speak to.”
