: One of the episode’s most satisfying surprises is the reveal that Reese and Finch are not the only team the Machine has been helping. This expands the show’s scope, proving that "Team Machine" is a global movement rather than just a small group in New York.

It effectively raises the stakes for the remaining two episodes as the team prepares for their final confrontation with Samaritan. Community Perspectives
