Numbers - “Pandora’s Box”

by Lindsay Stetler

Sorry about the two days of silence. Things have been a little crazy. But enough about me. let’s talk Numb3rs!

A plane carrying a prototype of something important that I didn’t understand crashes in the woods for no apparent reason. But that’s okay because W00T, Edgerton is back! What a pleasant surprise for us.

Charlie and Alan get a not-so-pleasant surprise when they come home to find that they’ve been robbed. Charlie rushes off to help Don on the case, but when Amita gives him a talk about how someone stole something from her and robbery is a personal, emotional experience, he goes back home and offers to use his math skillz to help the police. Aw.

Turns out the plane was crashed so that when the FAA analyzed the black box, a virus that can hide a plane from radar would get into their computers. The baddies were going to use it to smuggle drugs into the country instead of something cool, like randomly mess with the flight…tech…guys. Look, I don’t know what they’re called. I just know it’d be hilarious to play Jumbo Jet Hide-and-Seek with them.

Charlie has used his math skillz to determine that the robber lives in the L.A. area. Alan and the rest of America are not impressed. Don comes waltzing in with a box of all the stuff that was stolen from them; he activated the GPS on Alan’s laptop and it lead them right to the jerk who would dare think of breaking into that beautiful Craftsman house.

Tonight: No crime drama. BRING BACK VERONICA MARS, CW! I’m just going to sit and cry in a corner until you do…
