 SUMMARY

Continuing from the previous episode, Frank and FBI Agent Emma Hollis investigate a group of women who seem to have knowledge of the apocalypse and are being hunted by an assassin. These women, all part of a family of remote viewers, are targeted because of their visions. The case reveals deep ties to government experiments and the Millennium Group's darker agenda.

 STORY

The episode begins with Frank Black dealing with the fallout from the apocalyptic threats he faced and the psychological impact they have had on him.

The episode introduces a new case involving a series of cryptic and ritualistic murders that seem to be connected to an ancient manuscript known as the "Exegesis." This manuscript is believed to contain dark and esoteric knowledge that is central to the new investigation. As Frank dives into the case, he discovers that the manuscript’s contents are influencing the crimes, guiding the killer’s actions in a twisted attempt to bring about a foretold prophecy.

Frank's investigation reveals that the manuscript has connections to a shadowy group that believes in the manuscript’s power to invoke dark forces. This group’s obsession with the manuscript has led them to commit a series of murders as part of a larger, ritualistic plan. The episode explores themes of occultism, prophecy, and the influence of ancient texts on contemporary criminal behavior.

As Frank pieces together the clues, he faces numerous challenges, including confrontations with members of the group and the psychological strain of dealing with the manuscript’s dark influence. The episode builds to a tense and dramatic climax as Frank races against time to stop the group from completing their ritualistic goals.

"Exegesis" is notable for its exploration of dark occult themes and the psychological impact of ancient texts on modern criminal minds. The episode combines elements of thriller, drama, and supernatural intrigue, setting the stage for the new season with a compelling and intense narrative.

Jumped the shark

Written by Pike on 2017-09-08


Klea Scott is hanging on to Frank's every word, and it's not interesting. End of a double episode. The series is a shadow of its former self. Goodbye to all that.
