Fall Finales: The Equalizer - Seasons Three

The Equalizer has just concluded it's hectic 18th episode of season three.

Action stars usually don't look like Queen Latifah, however she stars as The Equalizer. 

In May last year the series was double renewed, for its third and fourth seasons. The third season started last October. Concluding on Sunday. USA Sunday that is, Aussie Monday.


In the finale, Robyn, Mel, Harry, Dante, Delilah and Aunt Vi all are in various amounts of danger in the finale.

“Eye for an Eye,” opens with Robyn and Mel being chased, ultimately trapped in a building by men with guns. 

Then, there’s a rewind to a much more joyful period six hours earlier. While happily working on her dad’s old car, Robyn gets a call from Aunt Vi and Delilah, who are planning a day of fun themselves. 

After making a plan to join them for dinner later, Robyn heads to the auto store. That’s when things take a turn for the worse: She’s being followed.

There is no resolution for Fisk, who is now being injected with the truth serum or Robyn and Mel, who are now trapped by the men, as shown at the beginning of the episode. 

They are separated, and Robyn is taken to a room where she is confronted by her old CIA colleague, who isn’t dead after all. 

Upset at being abandoned by Robyn and the CIA, she reveals her plan for revenge: She will burn Harry, Mel and Dante alive in front of Robyn, who helplessly watches on camera as her friends are tied up and surrounded by flames.

Robyn fights, but is overpowered. As she watches the fire grow more intense around her loved ones, all she can do is scream.

We also have no idea when The Equalizer will return for a fourth season with the writers strike in full swing. CBS could have some episodes written or plans with the series receiving a two season order ahead of season two concluding.

Either way there could be less episodes than the last two seasons, however season one did start with a tight ten episode order.

CBS have had a decent TV season with Fire Country being possibly the biggest new show of the season. Will the Equalizer change lives? Absolutely not. However it is fun watching Queen Latifah swan around in the action sequences. This season Kelly Rowland also guest starred.

Until next time, when The Flash finally concludes!
