TV Episode Review – Lie To Me: Sweet Sixteen

Tim Roth in Lie To Me

Even though I missed about ten minutes from the middle of this episode (DVR issues, sigh), I still saw plenty enough to know that it was amazing. From the very beginning – starting with the explosion which made me jump about six inches, to Eli’s slow walk into the building, bloody and in shock – I knew we were in for something great.

It turns out that the bomb killed a man that was Cal’s boss back when he was working with the Pentagon. Back then he and Foster were doctor and patient. Cal had been sent to her after suffering from the mental trauma of accidentally causing the death of an innocent woman and child. He did a read on a man who he thought was going to cause trouble and someone in the Pentagon decided to go after the guy, only they got the man’s wife and daughter instead.

Doyle (played by Angus Macfayden), the man who Cal is sure is behind it all, comes to him to say that he didn’t plant the bomb and Cal helps him to find out who did. In getting to the truth, he tracks it down to the Assistant Deputy Director of the Dept of National Intelligence. From there, he’s able to find the man who actually pulled the trigger that day and allows Doyle to finally get what he’s always wanted. Only the former terrorist doesn’t want to kill the man, he just wants to help get him arrested for what he’s done to his family.

The ending was a bit of a double shock to me. First off, we find out that Lightman admitted that he knew when he read Doyle as a threat that they’d kill him. Then we also find out that all those years ago Foster had been told that if she didn’t keep Cal under control, that they would have killed his family. So all this time she’s been lying to him and he never knew it. Wow.

As always, I enjoyed the foray into the backstory between characters that this episode brought us, going so far as to show us the day that Lightman and Foster first met.
