Close Quarters - Doyle shoots Inge Helmut at the end

Doesn't Julie shoot Inge? Doyle looks to be too late to me. (Not that he didn't try like hell, which should probably count.)

Killer with a Long Arm - puts himself at risk to be sure that Bodie is safe from his shot

Is that what's going on there? I always thought Bodie was angry because Doyle had left HIM too long in jeopardy. Hmmm...I'll have to watch that again.

Ojuka Situation - shoots man who was about to shoot Bodie

At the end, though, I think we're supposed to believe that Bodie opening fire is what made Doyle's escape from the house ultimately possible -- although he saves himself from Parker. Bodie seems to be taking credit for it when he talks to Cowley about letting them "get away with it."

I guess some of this is speculation about what the most likely scenario would be. In Hunter/Hunted, Bodie's already tracking Doyle down, and in theory could have found him and saved him even without knowing the why behind what was happening.

DiaG...hmmm. By the time Bodie has run up the fire escape, dealt with Doyle's wounds, run back down and summoned an ambulance there's still no sign of other relief, so my thought is no one else would arrive in time.

Oh, and what's the one with the lady terrorist working in the library? Bodie shoots the guy before he can shoot Doyle in the stairwell?

Blind Run, whatever the motivation -- and Bodie does clearly say "Is Doyle in there?" -- there's no way Doyle would have escaped without his help. No other help was coming. Doyle acknowledges Bodie saving him at the end when he jokes he's too personally involved to question Lelia.

And what about the final episode? Does Bodie keep Williams from shooting Doyle or was Williams not going to shoot? Did Williams believe that Doyle was an assassin and so expendable in order to preserve his own cover?

Very interesting -- I'd like to watch episode by episode and really count it up.
