[Tim]

Sounds good.

[Squad 51]

Yep, sounds interesting. And as usual, one day later for me.

[Tim]

Better late than never.

Looks like a good one. Auggie is trying to redeem himself. I hope this is a good sign he'll be likeable again.

[Sunday]

New episode day!!!

I'm looking forward to it.

[SpnFanJackie]

Augie trying to make amends.

Abeline tells Augie she’s already forgiven him and he doesn’t need to make it up to her. He likes spending time with her. So sweet. I loved Bonhan smiling in the background.

Later, Liam walks in to see Bonham. He tells him about starting the charity business and Bonham gets angry with him.

Near the end Cordell arrives home, Julia gives him a call to check on him. There’s a package on his doorstep. As he opens it, he sees multiple cans of Circuit Energy Drink – the ones he drank in the Marines and also saw at Grey Flag. There’s a note that says, “Stay Hydrated War Hero".

What's going on. Guess we'll find out next week.

[Pia]

STAY HYDRATED, WAR HERO??? UMM HELLO?? What is going on. Looks like the kidnapping story ain't over.

Heartfelt and genuine acts help people to forgive more than just words can. That was lovely, Aughie. I saw a glimpse of the boy we knew and loved again. 

[Dark Avenger]

Yay!!! We're getting the old Auggie back. Making it up to his grandparents.

That cliffhanger. Looks like some PTSD from the kidnappings still there.

Liam has a new job prospect but his dad ain't happy.

Colton going to visit his grandma.

[Tim]

And Colton got a letter from his jailed grandmother (the one who kicked off the whole Walker VS Davidson feud to start with).  I can see why he'd be conflicted. 

Looks like Bonham may finally go easy on Augie.

And what was that ending.  Looks like that group that grabbed Cordell still has members on the loose.

[Squad 51]

I'm back as well with the new episode.

So, Auggie is on a good trip to make amends with his grandparents and playing chess seems to be a good ice breaker. Bonham seems to lessen still, with his son and grandson as what we could see at the end with Liam and his new business. They should give it a try and see how it goes on.

Colton is clearly conflicted, yet the Walkers will support him.

There is definitely something weird going on and the kidnappers seem to be after Cordell. And I bet this money thing was a distraction.

Can't wait for next time.

[Trinity]

I enjoyed this one.

Colton is so conflicted. I wonder what he'll do. I'm glad the Walkers will support him.

Auggie has redeemed himself. I'm so happy things have mended.

But now conflict between Liam and Bonham. Maybe he'll give it a try once he can process the idea.

Those kidnappers are not done with Cordi or the Walkers just yet.

[Tim]

I can start to like Augie again.

Me too. Such a relief.

[Tim]

Ditto.

About time he grew up.
