What I’m Watching: Ringer

Ringer: Season 1, Episode 9 “Shut Up and Eat Your Bologna” (C+)

Bridget and Malcolm have finally managed to start putting pieces together, but they couldn’t be further away from discovering that Charlie is actually working for a very much alive Siobhan. It does seem to me the Charlie would prepare a slightly more well-researched story with the appropriate props rather than keeping his keys with labeled information lying around for Charlie to find. I’m not sure exactly why Gemma is tied up in his basement rather than actually dead, but I suppose Siobhan might not actually be a cold-blooded killer. It does appear that Bridget’s actions have not been in her control for a while now, as the cop that Bridget supposedly knocked out when she escaped was actually working for Charlie to get her to come to New York. Bridget going to therapy and finding out that Siobhan was taking antidepressants for paranoia is an intriguing development, and I do hope that she soon realizes that Siobhan isn’t out of the picture. Andrew booking a vacation is a nice ideal, but I have a feeling that it’s something that’s never come to come to fruition, especially considering the fact that his preoccupation with his own happiness over business savvy is getting Olivia to work extra hard to get to Gemma’s father against his wishes. If only she hadn’t found that damning photo of Henry and Siobhan on his phone, because something tells me that she’s going to use that fact to her advantage at just the wrong time and really mess things up for Bridget.
