Burn Notice, "Bad Blood": Where my Cheese at?

Very quick spoilers for last night's "Burn Notice" coming up just as soon as I glue some flair to my cell phone...

They're on a nice little roll of late, aren't they? Another strong episode, with a good personal case for Michael (albeit one that could have made more use of Method Man as the murderous hip-hop mogul, and one where Michael's solution again was to set up the bad guy to get killed in his client's place) and some interesting developments on the Carla (and now Victor) front. One of the pleasures of the show is Michael's ability to think, talk or fight his way out of almost any situation; his methods are so varied that his invincibility never gets dull. But it's still nice to see him go up against someone as smart, and talented, and vicious -- not to mention someone who's far better-connected than Michael's little network of himself, Fi and Sam. I never really watched "Stargate," so this is my first real exposure to Michael Shanks, but I thought he did a very nice job as Michael's dark double.

What did everybody else think?
