Absentia 1x06 “Nobody’s Innocent” -
Emily avoids arrest and finds another trace of investigation. But with the disturbing new evidence, Emily begins to suspect one of her loved ones. Unfortunately, he is the only person who can help Emily figure out the case. Could it be just a little paranoia from Emily, or does she not have anyone to turn to? Alice gets bittersweet news and has to make a very difficult decision. (x)

Well this was an appropriate title for the episode. Reluctant to go into details here, even with the spoiler tag, as I think people need to watch the episodes in the sequence to get the full effect.
Well it seems that Nick quickly moved on from Emily disappearing. One year after she disappears he remarries! That would o to explaining why Flynn thought of the second wife as his mother as he was still only about three when they married.
Tommy (Angel) has improved as he is given more scenes but Nick has not IMO-he lacks acting range and seems to have the same face all the time.
Loved the connection between the father and daughter. But this is going in dark place and it was pretty brutal and raw. As NYer posted earlier this is not a genre I would normally watch but damn you Stana for being in this kind of script!
Jack is into some really dark and seedy crap but think he is only a small part of a bigger piece. His medical training is about to become critical?
Ends on a cliffhanger (again) and Castle fans will be familiar with this one.

Quick question: Did Nick actually remarry after one year? I thought her dad meant he stopped looking for Emily after one year?

But my reaction was 'you jerk' when Emily's father got stuck into him for giving up so quickly and 'breaking' his marriage vows to Emily. He definitely said he gave up searching after only a year. Not liking Nick much TBH.

I went back to rewatch the scene (it's actually episode 5) and I don't think he said that they got married after one year. But I'm curious if I missed something since English is my second language. Although, even if they got married later, like after three, four, five years, it still seems like a really short time. I feel soo bad for Emily.

Hahah I know, right? I literally just watched it a couple hours ago and I still can't remember what happened in which episode. Binge watching is the best and the worst thing. It was definitely too quick. But of course it explains why Flynn considers Alice his mom.

I just went back to look at that scene but the link has been deleted Yes, agree if Nick moved on quickly it would help explain why Flynn has no memory of his Mother. There would be no playing of the family videos with Emily or talking about her or showing pictures of her if there was a new wife on the scene. It's all merged into one episode for me, so apologies for merging scenes. Oops!

Just checked that again....strangely it was episode 5....but yes her father said it only took a year before Nick threw in the towel and I assume started dating Alice, can't beleive he married just then but I'm not sure on that point....anyway it did not take that long after her original disappearance.....at least we now know about the trees with eyes! .

Hmmm. Could Nick be the crooked FBI Agent? Just that if he gave up the search so quickly and moved on it could point to he had inside knowledge she was 'dead' and or the marriage was on the rocks but there is no indication of that aspect. Alice not appearing to have a career is also interesting-unusual today and its not as though Flynn is not at school during the day. Something about Nick is niggling. Loving the actor playing Emily's dad and the character. Hoping he stays innocent. But as we turn into the last three episodes we should have at least heard or seen the true villain. I mean they can't just pull a serial killer out of the cupboard as it were. Do believe that the brother is a sidebar issue-caught up in the underworld of sexual depravity, which may have been used to leverage him to assist in getting Emily kidnapped and his then downward spiral with the bottle?

Bingeing does tend to roll all the scenes together. Then again Stana said they shot Absentia as if it was a movie. Maybe that adds to its bingeability.
Major impression is how fantastic Stana is as Emily. She does such wonderful work at all levels - terribly upset about her son, avenging angle, scared rabbit, everything in between. When she walks into the river and later walks out that was wonderful. The shoot out in the strip club is very cool. Susan Sullivan was right. Katic is the kind of woman who could shoot you. She punches well, too. A-list performance. Emmy worthy. But, she's been Emmy material for a long time.
I read a description of Nick someplace and according to that he's being played as written and according to direction. So, I guess if you have a problem with how Nick comes off you have to speak to the writer and the director.
All the other actors are doing very well. Enjoying their work in the show. Yeah, the guy playing Emily's father has been around for ages. He does great work.

I thought it was weird that Alice doesn't seem to be working too. Did Nick try to make Emily disappear, so he could have a younger wife? I'm just kidding. Probably? Do we know how old any of the characters are? I thought it's interesting that Cara is so much younger, only 27. But of course Alice could be like 35. Who knows. For now it really looks like her brother has definitely something to do with her disappearence. He's weird af for sure. Kinda sad, because I really liked him at the beginning.

When it was announced that Neil Jackson had been cast as Emily's brother I remembered him from Push and I thought at the time that it probably meant that Jack would not be a benign character.

The woman that went into the Police Station to talk to Tommy and told him she saw Emily talking to that Russian guy that ended up in the morgue, is she the same woman that was fooling around with Emily's brother while Emily was watching from across the street?

Borislava Stratieva is the actress who plays the insider in the club who helps Emily. She is listed for 10 episodes. I tried to to find both the names of the actress who plays the Russian escort and the fake witness but no luck. Maybe someone here knows? But I'm not seeing them as the same actress-the escort character appeared shorter to me?

Most definitely not 'benign'! But that last phone call by Emily to Jack was interesting. Something that binds them from the past? A shared trauma? Jack's sexual preferences could be the fallout from that trauma? Hate to say it, because I'm liking the character, but is the Father all he makes out to be? Is there some dark issue between him and Jack and or Emily? Jack being a trained Doctor is about to become relevant to Emily's survival obviously but the tone of Emily's message to him was more than curious. We have also seen previews of Emily running through public areas, wearing what looks like a hospital gown covered by a jacket. So she gets treatment then needs to run again? So whose the big bad person? Has to be someone we know about-can't pull a rabbit out of a hat IMO. Jack is involved but only on the edges me thinks?

Watched E1-6 again and this time with headphones. Just found it challenging at times to catch all the dialogue first time viewing. What's with the repeated phrase of 'you've been given a second chance and don't waste it'? Sounds like some screwed up and were found lacking in Emily's disappearance?

Ricky Champ appears as "a patient in a mental insitution" in Episodes 8 and 9, so maybe that has more to do with Emily appearing to wear hospital garb. www.imdb.com/name/nm2307468/?ref_=nv_sr_1But Warren's "Nurse" turns up in Episode 8, so maybe it's him that ends up in the mental insititution. www.imdb.com/name/nm8551061/?ref_=ttfc_fc_cl_t15The fact that Adam gets shot just as Nick and Tommy arrive to conveniently cast suspicion on Emily suggests that whoever it is has access to considerable resources to be able to know where she was before Nick had guessed where to look, unless they are Nick's accomplice and he tipped them off as he was telling Tommy, so another Fed? but we've only really met Crown and the female Agent Ericsson, and no real motive for them to do it has been offered yet, and other than possibly wanting to get rid of his wife so he could pursue Alice, (a bit drastic), Nick also doesn't seem to have a reason to have put her through her ordeal, and, other than a hint that their marriage wasn't necessarily hunky dory, the scenes we've seen so far don't really support the idea that he could have been behind Emily's abduction. And not knowing when Emily was adopted we don't know whether Jack knew her when she was playing in the woods near the "bleeding eye tree" and whether he could be connected to the mass burial, but is the "bleeding eye tree" going to turn out to be Emily's "Hollander Woods" and this all turns out to be something stemming from a traumatic experience she witnessed as a child?

Thank you for all that casting info-I need to digest it a little. But, I tend to agree that Nick is not a murderer here but he may have slipped up in protection Emily whilst she was on her assignment-or perhaps she asked him for assistance and he didn't support her? There will be something there IMO. Interesting point about the psych hospital. Perhaps Jack takes Emily there to give her medical attention that maybe can keep her under the radar? I'm starting to lean towards a 'Hollanders Woods' twist on all this-hopefully not. But one thought on how they managed to find her with Adam could be that she has a tracking device planted in her? Remember, there has to be a reason she was kept alive and equally a reason why she was 'allowed' to be rescued? Just think Jack is one screwed up little puppy due to a childhood issue-hopefully not related to the father. Hoping also that its not going down the Castle route of him being the one who saw the children being killed. Wondering were they all killed at the same time? Do we know that?

Seeing any of those trees in the future is always going to bring me to scary eye thoughts! Yes, listened to that scene between Nick and Emily's father and agree he said he gave up after 12 months. Can't see the father being as peeved with him if he had not starting dating anyone for a number of years-appreciate there is no rule of how long is long enough to grieve. But we also should factor into the fathers comment that if he gave up on Emily it needn't have been that he went straight to dating Alice. He could have had any number of 'dates' before he met up with Alice. Thinking that Nick is carrying a very big bucket load of guilt about something on his shoulders. Something that Emily has either forgotten or doesnt actually know about? Maybe the reason for her amnesia-something Nick did?

Random thoughts. Aside from the body scratches and the forehead gash, Emily actually looked in pretty good physical condition for someone who had been imprisoned (?) for six years. Not even going to touch on the shaved legs and underarms! I know, I know its a movie and she still had to look good! Body weight looked excellent. I might have to investigate those 'meals' she was getting that we saw! So perhaps there is something much more to where Emily was for the six years? Any thoughts on why the memory loss. Trauma. Drugs. There was a mention of drugs in her system in E1 at the hospital-but mainly sedation. Someone with medical training? Hmmm. who could that be? What if Jack was so far caught up with the Russian elements running that club and the shady sexual business that he was used to keep Emily alive and sedated the whole time? What if its Jack behind the white mask and was her 'jailer'?

I thought they mentioned finding hallucinogens in the water but it's a few days now since I watched that episode and it was more background dialogue so I wouldn't swear to what I heard. (Nothing to do with age. LOL)

There is her brother of course, but also that psychologist who is helping her. Do you think Harlow could have been a victim just like Emily? Perhaps Harlow spent some time in that tank as well?

(Nothing to do with age. LOL) Yes, that's what they said-there were signs of hallucinogens as well as sedatives from what my second time listening heard. So was the intent of hallucinogens to increase her stress levels? The sedation would be to just keep her 'under control' despite the heightened anxieties or even hallucinations Emily would be suffering. Believe me Eeyore, it has EVERYTHING to do with age!

Does anyone think it's weird that they apparently put the drugs into the water? Wouldn't Emily only be getting the drugs into her system once she starts swallowing the water and by the time the drugs work, she would be dead already? Obviously they must have given her something before they put her in the tank too, but why put drugs into the tank?
It could totally be Jack under the mask. It can't be a coincidence that he stopped seeing is friend for 6 years. So maybe he was watching Emily. Although I really hope it wasn't him. Can you imagine if your own brother was behind that? It would probably destroy Emily. They seemed to be getting along quite well. Only when Jack started drinking again, it went bad.
Latte, I thought it looked like oatmeal? But I kinda forgot. I hope in my case it's not the age, though. I would give anything to have Stana's/Emily's body, but I'm drawing the line at getting kidnapped and eating oatmeal for six years.

Remember they are not blood related as Emily was adopted, and Jack's animosity towards her stems from her being Warren's favourite over his own son. Doesn't alter the fact that he has some very extreme tastes.

I understand that he is angry because she was their father's favorite, but it's really sad that he would hate her that much. There were moments when they got along really well. If you can't trust your own relatives, can you trust anyone else in the world? This show is killing me already. I also wonder what happened to Emily's biological parents.

I hope in my case it's not the age, though. I would give anything to have Stana's/Emily's body, but I'm drawing the line at getting kidnapped and eating oatmeal for six years. Drawing the line at kidnapping and oatmeal for six years also! No idea why the tank water had elements of drugs in it. Also that it was drawn from the local creek so the possibilities of contamination are much higher than tap water or even tank water. Not going to touch they would need some form of electrical power to pump that water up from the river to that remote shack! Jack is looking good to be somehow an accomplice. Not the big bad guy but an underling maybe. Still hoping the father has no involvement. Hope all these elements are not going to be ignored-had enough of that frustration on Castle!

Random thoughts. Aside from the body scratches and the forehead gash, Emily actually looked in pretty good physical condition for someone who had been imprisoned (?) for six years. Not even going to touch on the shaved legs and underarms! I know, I know its a movie and she still had to look good! Body weight looked excellent. I might have to investigate those 'meals' she was getting that we saw! So perhaps there is something much more to where Emily was for the six years? Any thoughts on why the memory loss. Trauma. Drugs. There was a mention of drugs in her system in E1 at the hospital-but mainly sedation. Someone with medical training? Hmmm. who could that be? What if Jack was so far caught up with the Russian elements running that club and the shady sexual business that he was used to keep Emily alive and sedated the whole time? What if its Jack behind the white mask and was her 'jailer'? Didn't they mention hallucinogens in the water of the tank she was found in? There is her brother of course, but also that psychologist who is helping her. Do you think Harlow could have been a victim just like Emily? Perhaps Harlow spent some time in that tank as well? Well Harlowe sure did like water! Then he made two odd comments: the one about second chances and the one where he said she had the same look in her eye. What on earth was the 'look' about? I want to see the remaining episodes-NOW!

Does anyone think it's weird that they apparently put the drugs into the water? Wouldn't Emily only be getting the drugs into her system once she starts swallowing the water and by the time the drugs work, she would be dead already? Obviously they must have given her something before they put her in the tank too, but why put drugs into the tank? It could totally be Jack under the mask.

I forgot that the water was from the river. There has to be some sort of pump. The water came out of this huge pipe. Maybe the drugs were in the river and someone discovered that a pharma company was polluting the water or something weird like that. Yeah, probably not. If the father has anything to do with it, I'm going to smash my laptop. I really don't think he has. Also, what's up with Emily's psychologist/psychiatrist? He was very quick to suggest that she could have schizophrenia (?). I'm really scared that none of our questions get answered. 10 episodes is not enough time.
