** SPOILERS ** ALL RIGHTS TO RESPECTIVE OWNERS **

FUCK! Self Immolation right away!!!!!!!!!!!

Why’d Harry’s ex leave the key in the safe?

So what does the suit visiting Max have to do with Harry’s ex?

LOVERS!

And it turns out that the Chinese gov. may have a “high level sleeper,” in the Australian Deep State.

And Paxton was the last person seen with Lloyd.

Who’s spying on Mae Lin and why?

Mae Lin stole the file, she knew she was being spied on.

WTF? Strip searching is so evil and creepy. Can that be against international law?

Australia, political ally to America, is also afraid of us?

So what did Kim see? And who’s pulling up behind Kim?

Kim’s dead. Rip.

Sabine is being held up by her own government. Disappeared by her own government, all for Australia to side with USA over China??

Ivy doesn’t trust Mal. And for a good reason.

Catriona wants to be the head of full on cross referencing surveillance. She spooked Mal. Wow. Australia wants it’s own NSA.

Mal is making them look bad, so they want to off him.

Whoever broke into Harry’s place was looking for something. And trying to send her a message.

Felix is about to be arrested. And Vaughn is in on this.

It’s all about trying to save Tibet.

Go Qiu! Go Brian! Qiu is out! Holy shit! But the fixer let him go. Why? Cause the hostages were moved.

Catriona is the same as Michael Hayden.

“There’s more people this time.” Come again Sabine?

Dan White = Max.

ASD. It’s all ASD.

The rebels: Qiu, Brian, and others, are kidnapped by the Chinese gov. as the Australian gov. looks the other way.

FUCK! Someone tried to kill Harriet. And made it look like attempted suicide.

Fuck! Chinese ambassador's wife is dead.

Shut the door Deputy Constable.

I like this Deputy Constable.

Finding out how Kim died was horrible.

So Harriet’s in jail, and Catriona is a spy for the Chinese government.

And Mal Paxton is Harriet’s new ally.

Well Hollllyyy Shit. Deep state shit in Australia happens like it does here, if it's to be believed. I don't know what I was expecting.

It's more realistic than House of Cards, because in America, there is no aisle. Apparently it's the same in Australia too, if it's to be believed.

But she's either lazy, stupid, or naive as a journalist. She doesn't bother encrypting things, assume she's under surveillance, anything. No protections. Period. Not til her first boyfriend helps her decrypt Kim's message . So wtf? What gives?

Anyway, overall, I rate this $6.00 USD/ $6.00 USD. This is so super fantastic. How will this end? I believe season two will be out later this year!
