Stitchers season 2

Kirsten keeps acting like a brat, doing whatever she wants no matter what the others say or order, and it’s always ok. Kirsten is supposed to be all different because she can feel emotions now, but honestly she looks just the same. This is not a very well done show, I watched it once because it was on tv, I obviously won’t buy it or watch it ever again.
1-2.0
It starts right at the end of ep 10 of season 1, and they’re about to declare Cameron’s hour of death when Kirsten goes hysterics “he can’t be dead” and throws herself on him crying. Everyone is silent, Camille hugs Linus for comfort, but then Cameron moves a hand and talks, and they take him to a hospital. Maggie talks to the director, and he says the real purpose of the program is that “we are developing a technology to accelerate the evolution of the human brain”.
Fisher is awake too, and he tells Kirsten that he thinks Turner killed Ed Clark. Kirsten runs to him, but finds him dead.  There are security guards in the lab now. Kirsten stitches into Turner of course, with a new suit (new season, new suit, no other reason). Kirsten and Cameron go check Turner’s apartment and lock their security men in the panic room to go check another place alone, where they are found out and tased. The new Cameron 2.0 is all adventurous and fearless while Kirsten feels different too in some way. Maggie gives Kirsten and Cameron NSA badges.. just like that.
Kirsten says that Maggie killed Turner, but they adjust the memory and Kirsten can see it was not her before the security people shoot her. Kirsten finds Ed Clark’s body, that Turner had secretly kept hidden and Kirsten finally stitches into him but can’t see anything clearly. 
Kirsten won’t admit to Cameron what she saw in his head (meaning Her).
The last scene: a memory of Kirsten as a child with her dad, smelling something that now make her drop her cup. Was it the same smell in Turner and Ed’s memory? Is her dad alive? We’ll see next week.
2-Hack me if you can
Linus is 24 now and wants to live alone and shows his new place to Camille when his parents come visiting. Cameron wants to buy a motorcycle. 
Fisher teaches Camille to fight. He’s back to work, Maggie is promoted acting-director of the Stitchers program. 
A hacker now working for some Government agency has died. The super-hacker that killed Derek also freezed Cameron’s credit-cards and called Kirsten on her phone, then she ‘almost’ got Kirsten arrested. This Ally (Cassidy Freeman) hacks their phones too so Maggie has them confiscated, all but Kirsten’s because she refused... and of course they simply let her do whatever she wants :-/
They find Ally, her real name is Linda.
3-The one that got away
Fisher’s retired captain, or mentor, is dead. Camille’s brother Theo shows up at her place at night. She says he’s trouble. When she finds out that he owes some guys money she kicks him out, and he goes to Linus. When he’s rude to Kirsten, they fight and Linus tells him to get out. 
Cameron investigates on his own and brings home “the ripper”, the serial killer they’re looking for. He was the victim’s secret therapist. Cameron fights him, Kirsten and Fisher rush in and she hugs him immediately. Theo leaves, stealing everything from Linus’ apartment, but he doesn’t tell Camille about it. Kirsten tells Cameron that she doesn’t know what she feels because all these emotions are new to her.
4-The two deaths of Jamie B.
Linus crashes at Cameron’s apartment (which is rather imposing, I think; he could have stayed at his place even without a television set or all his technological toys). Camille gets mad learning that Theo stole his stuff, and wants to repay him but he says no “it’s ok, it’s just stuff”. 
Cameron and Kirsten are about to kiss when Linus walks in on them ruining the moment and she goes away. Both Kirsten and Cameron try asking Fisher for advice, but he has no definite answer, he only tells Kirsten that it’s very difficult to find someone you really connect with, and he tells Cameron that “some people make better friends than they do couples”. Later Kirsten tells Cameron that she doesn’t want to keep him waiting and that she wants to protect their friendship because he’s her best friend, so he invites Nina out, the cute comic-book girl :-)
Camille ‘kicks Theo’s ass’, to use her own words, and got Linus’ stuff back, and they sleep together at Cameron’s place, so he goes out with Nina instead of inviting her in.
A guy is killed. Steven was a scientist who invented by mistake a dangerous kind of nanobots and got killed by his boss. He survived the drowning, lost his memory and worked in a supermarket under the name of his girlfriend, Jamie B, then was found and killed for good.
5-Midnight stitcher
Linus tells Camille that Cameron talked to Nina all night on the phone “about Dr Who”, and “David Tennant this, Tardis that, all night long. I love my Time Lords as much as the next guy but I need eight hours sleep”. Kirsten tells Camille she already knew about Nina and she’s not mad. Also tells her that her father had a first wife, Elizabeth. Camille meets Liam while working out at the gym, and later they work out together. Cameron and Nina talk about Torchwood; he doesn’t like it because Jack didn’t deserve a spin-off, and she loves Jack and says that he’s bi, which is not ‘exactly’ true, he was more the ‘anything-that-breaths’ type.. and then they kiss.
There’s also a Star Trek reference, as if this could be enough to turn this show into TBBT. Cameron says “fascinating” - Linus”thank you Mr Spock” - Cameron”we agreed, I’m Kirk you’re Spock” - Linus”I never agreed to that”.
A receptionist falls to her death. A note is found saying “it’s all His fault. KC”, and Kirsten wants to stitch against Maggie’s orders during the night. Sandy’s boyfriend killed her. They were both brainwashed, and she was programmed to kill a horror movie producer. After stitching into her, Kirsten is the one who is programmed now. She goes to kill the man but Cameroon stands in front of her, tells her he’s willing to die for her again. He gets her back and instead she shoots the next woman who gets up and tries to shoot the guy. 
At the end, the solution to the Liam mystery: Maggie sent Camille to bait him, she’s working to find out what he’s up to, to protect Kirsten, and lies to Linus to protect him too.
6-The dying shame
Coco Tsu, the “biggest popstar in China ever” according to Linus, is dead. Coco’s bodyguard Bai Linn eventually works with them to find the killer. For the first time, Kirsten talks to the boy in the red cap during the stitch. Coco’s dad had been set up by his powerful partner Wu and everybody thought he was in a Chinese prison but he was there, working as a gardener. Coco was killed to get to him, and the paparazzi who had pictures of them together was too. Fisher and Bai Linn save the father and arrest the killer. 
Kirsten invites Cameron and Nina over for dinner. Linus catches Camille in a lie and she admits it, but he goes away and they say no more. Kirsten finds a Coco album outside her door, like the boy in the red baseball cap said, and also the note “hearing a hundred times is not as good as seeing once”, Coco’s dad words.
7-Pretty little lawyers
Anna, a young lawyer, is killed. One of those hateful young lawyers talks shame about Cameron’s father in front of Kirsten, and it’s a pleasure to say that he was the murderer. 
Linus tells Kirsten that he thinks Camille is seeing someone else, and then Kirsten comes home and sees her kissing Liam and gets angry. Maggie confesses that to Kirsten that she ordered Camille to see Liam, pursuing Kirsten’s father case, and Kirsten says that it’s too dangerous and so she wants to do it herself.
The boy in the red cap tells Kirsten that she has a sister, Ivy Brown, daughter of Elizabeth Brown, her dad’s first wife. 
8-Red eye
Cameron has told Nina that he works at a videogame company so she doesn’t get it that he’s always so busy 24/7. After learning that his father his sick in the last episode, Linus tries to contact his doctor. Camille tells him of Maggie’s orders about Liam. 
A plane landed with twelve dead passengers, twelve heart attacks.. so they plan to stitch into six of those people in the 24 hours available. After five or six Kirsten faints in the tank. The boy in the red cap (now without the cap) suggests her how to stitch into five people simultaneously, and she solves the case of course. A fugitive switched identity with another one and wanted to kill him to appear dead, and eleven people were just collateral damage. 
At the end, Nina is mad at Cameron, and Ivy shows up, angry because her dad left them for his second family, and she didn’t know that he had left Kirsten too. Ivy doesn’t want to tell her where he is because they finally have a relationship, but Kirsten tells her that he’s a killer wanted by NSA and she finally comes in for a chat.
9-The guest
Nina isn’t responding to Cameron’s texts. Linus’ dad is finally going into surgery and Camille is there for Linus and his parents. Cameron is back with Nina, which is good because they’re good together. 
We see this episode’s case while Kirsten is talking about it to Ivy in her own house - it’s not clear why. 
Not all of it of course, but she tells her about the case of a senator’s son that was killed. Ivy wants to know what her dad’s technology is, and she also sort of helps her solve the case. 
Kirsten meets Liam and asks him directly about her father and he walks away. At the end of the episode, he calls her asking her to meet him and he’ll tell her everything, but he gets shot.
10-All in
Liam died apparently. Camille seems to be the one feeling the worst about his death. Kirsten now stitches into Liam. 
Linus’ dad has a 50/50 chance of pulling thru. Nina finds Cameron’s badge so now she knows that he’s NSA. Fisher’s ex-wife asked him to give ‘them’ another shot.
One other thing Linus and Cameron did or did not agree on: Cameron is Sam, he is Frodo...
Kirsten finds the clue that Ivy left for her and comes to pick up her father but he’s gone and Ivy’s mad at her because she made him leave again. He left because she didn’t come alone and he knew it.Ivy also tells her that Ed Clark kept from her that her mom is still alive. Fisher gets an exhumation order from a friend and there’s nobody buried in her mother’s grave. Kirsten calls Maggie’s boss (Blair??-John Billingsley) and threatens to leave if he doesn’t tell her everything, the same way she always does and always gets her way, but not this time. Instead he raises his voice back at her and she gets scared and runs to Cameron crying, hugs him and kisses him and then runs away again...
Back home she talks to Camille - leaving out the threatening-and-kissing-parts, and smart Camille helps her figure out another message that Ed Clark left for her. 
Linus’ parents have always known about the stitcher program, and dad tells him that if he dies he should stitch into him and see how much he loves him and is proud of him...
Blair barges in while they’re about to stitch into the doctor who cared for Kirsten’s mother for 15 years, but got shot when she was taken away. Blair tells them to stop but they go on anyway, as they always do, so later three NSA soldiers barge in too, but Tim Camille and Fisher knock them down (come on!! :-/). While in the stitch, Kirsten insists that the boy, the “anomaly”, must give her some answers. He says: “are you ready to meet her” or something like that, she says yes, and they both disappear from Linus map. She’s lost in a happy memory of her and her mother together, so Cameron has Linus highjack the highjacker’s signal to talk to her and tell her to come back to the friends that are real and that he’ll never leave her... and it ends, just like that.
