For a second after Lightman got hit by the car, I wondered whether he’d deliberately gotten into the crash to draw out the paramedic. Lightman’s behavior is so ridiculous lately that the thought actually crossed my mind. Luckily, that wasn’t the case, but it goes to show how the show is all about danger seeking instead of lies when the idea even pops up.
“Saved” has an even-keeled case with a paramedic whose brother is forcing her to save car crash victims after causing the crashes. There’s some banter with Emily and the rest of the team, Torres gets gratitude from one of the mothers of a car crash victim/driver (depending on how you view it), but that’s it–no development of characters. With only two episodes left in the season, there’s hardly anything to look forward to.
Score: 8.3/10
