I don’t believe—for a single burger-flipping second—that Olivia Lockheed is GENUINELY selling Sapphire Angel out to the Savage Gang here…..she “likes” Sapphire (ewww) too much for her to sincerely go through with this. I’m impressed with how quickly she came to the correct revelation that Howard Vincent was behind the safehouse’s exposure, though. Then again, when you’re in the FBI, you pick up a thing or two regarding deducing skills. Speaking of them, Savage explaining Vincent’s reasoning for working as a Savage Gang mole for the FBI kind of tugged at the heart a bit; it is true that government salaries are often unfulfilling and almost always don’t match up with the time and effort needed to do the jobs. Still, I feel like upending his entire section of the justice system may have been a bit too far, especially if it’s to such a merciless and ruthless group like the Savage Gang.

I don’t know how Olivia Lockheed’s going to get ahold of Sapphire easily now, though, especially since Sapphire thinks Lockheed left her behind after their most recent meeting when the latter got kidnapped by the Savage Gang. Maybe if Lockheed just takes some time to explain what happened—AND if Sapphire has any patience left in her—they can start putting together a plan against the Gang now that Lockheed has seen them in-person. Maybe where Howard Vincent is a “genuine” mole for the Savage Gang, Lockheed will instead be a “fake” mole…..? And eventually she and Vincent will come to blows at one point……?

And not only that, but we also have Wayne Steele & the Justice Seekers, who are just against anything Savage Gang-related. Wonder if they’ll ever find out that Vincent (and maybe Lockheed, ambiguously) have sold their sect of the FBI out to the Gang…..if so, maybe they’ll try to terminate them and make an already-complicated situation all the more worse. So many directions!

I have a feeling we’ll hear from either Team Sapphire or Team Hammer next. Or even Majid Azari and/or the silver-eyed man!
