This is the second brush, watching the beginning with the ending, there is a sense of tragic and solemn watching things come to an end.
I'm very happy, I only fell into the pit after the end, otherwise one episode a week, two breaks a year, I'm afraid I will be tortured to death by curiosity. Of course, if it is completed at one time, it will also reduce the sense of participation of everyone who falls into the pit together. anyway, these are off topic.
Let's start thinking about it.
John Reese's Principles
Li Si's principle has always been firm, he just wants to save people. That's why after 9/11, I left the ex I was in love with and went to the battlefield. But because of his simplicity, he was used by ZF and became a chess piece, and was forced to do something that deviates from his original intention. From the intermittent memories, we can see that he was reluctant to get on the pirate ship, and in order to achieve his goals, he began to hurt people. All of this was originally very common, and every big machine's screw came this way until kara's betrayal and Jessica's death. John suddenly realized that what he had done might be in vain. He joined the army because he wanted to save people, but was finally betrayed by his companions, abandoned by the organization, and could not even protect the woman he loved the most. The sense of departure from this belief can tear apart human nature.
But he didn't.
He would rather drink alcohol, wander the streets, and live every day in a daze, rather than take revenge on the organization. Kara, who was also abandoned by the organization, chose another path. There's no right or wrong, it's John's nature. No matter how long he walked in the dark, he was still not assimilated.
Although he was not assimilated, he began to be wary of everyone, and even though he accepted the work he took over, he would still investigate privately. But he is still a kind person, even in the investigation, he is silent and non-aggressive, which is very different from his predecessor, Mr. Dillinger. Presumably that's why Harold picked him up.
The heart has the Tigers, fine sniffing the rose. This is his picture.
It can be said that Resse is an acquired pessimist, but not a person who gives up easily. He could see the end, "in the end, we will be alone. no one goona save you". But he would not walk meekly into the long night. Harold offered a job that could save people, and he took it, knowing that some poi couldn't be saved. Seeing the darkness, but not being swallowed by the darkness. What a rare person.
Principles of Harold Finch
I only made up for the fourth season, so I can't say I understand it. I just don't think he's the cute and reserved technical guy on the surface. If John is the light in the dark, Harold may be the sunspot in the light. Both Elias and Root have said that Harold is actually a very conceited person. Although he chose to make TM a black-box mechanism, to prevent others from getting the operation authority, so as to avoid the abuse of technology. But he left himself a backdoor, allowing the machine to spit out the social security numbers of unrelated people. On the surface, just a social security number ensures that personal information will not be leaked, but it cannot guarantee how the person who gets this number will act. So he decided to do it himself and play the role of God. The logical setting of the machine is also based on his moral standards. Isn't all this conceited enough? Every poi, ta's life and death lies in Harold's thought. When Grace had an accident, he said that if she was hurt in the slightest, he would kill them all.
Maybe it's the bottom line of his humanity. After this line, he doesn't care. In fact, there were many times when John was more active in saving people than Harold.
He chose John partly because of guilt and partly because he saw him let go of innocent people involved. So at the beginning, the plot shows one-sided trust and love. Everyone will think that this rich boss is very good, please give me a dozen. But think about it carefully, when all your thoughts are lost, someone suddenly calls you to save the world, you know nothing about the other party, and you dare to take over this job is the real hero. Information is unequal from the start.
Harold may have a natural sense of pity for John. So when he was shot, he bravely stepped out of the room, ran a red light, risked exposure, and came to the rescue. After that, John could be said to have let down his guard against Harold.
I wanted to say thank you, Harold, for giving me a second chance.
John sincerely thanked Harold when he thought he was going to die. Even at this moment, he didn't know who the other party was and why he did it. This is the moment when you really change your mind.
Joss Carter's Principles
Sister Ka has always been a black and white person who plays by the rule. The things that can be done through the police's case-handling methods are resolutely not taken any other way. From the past, she is a very smart person, can be admitted to a lawyer, and is good at non-violent inquiries. It can be said that she is a person with extremely high dual quotient. Because she observed the goodwill of the other party in the process of tracking the suit man, she unconsciously began to make exceptions to help the other party, on the premise of not violating the general principle. By the way, Doudou is really pitiful. Anything that needs to violate the principle will be thrown to him by Li Si.
Her thoughts were shaken for a while, and she refused to cooperate with the two after Snow approached and found out that John had concealed Harold's identity. Until she came across a case and the suspect regretted saying, if only someone came to stop me. Only then did she begin to feel whether pre-criminal intervention was necessary.
Currently rewatching the 18th episode of the first season, watch it slowly, and write it when you think of it.
