Eye Candy 1.8 "AMA" Review

                                   Image result for eye candy ama
A man sits in front of his computer and gouges his eye out after he receives a message saying, "an eye for an eye."  He files a report for assault saying he was mugged and the police show him photos of where it happened, but he says he was on the other side of the bridge.  Lindy (Victoria Justice) helps the police find out who it is and it appears she finds a photo of her sister on the site, the Babylon Portal in a continuation from last episode. She calls George (Harvey Guillen) for help who goes to her apartment to access her computer and says the photo might be old, infact it's three years old.  He finds there's a file within the file and he accesses it.  Lindy says it's her file from the Cyber Crimes unit when she was arrested the first time round.  These were files attached to Sarah's photo. Does this mean Lindy was a target from back then.  Sure appears that way.

One year ago:  we see Lindy arriving at a warehouse looking for 'JJ.'  No one helps her but George appears and asks her who she is.  They're 'hactivists.'  She's got thirty seconds to prove herself.  She hacks the site and finds George is his real name, she's 'Magnifyer.'  Tommy (Casey Deidrick) sits outside and tells Catherine (Melanie Nicholls-King) he's found someone who can help them.

The file is too encrypted for him to hack so Lindy has to actually go into Catherine's computer. George creates a diversion and then he's able to access the file, but it's redacted.  She then sees a reference number in the corner and it's the same number on her bracelet, the one saying 'we'll find her.'  She finds the box with the files and finds out she was used.  Tommy wanted her to help them find Bubonic, a killer, a terrorist as Catherine referred to him and Ben (Daniel Lissing) didn't like she was being used without her knowledge cos Bubonic's girlfriend was used and she was murdered.

Ben introduces himself at the bar and tries to pick ehr up.  She doesn't give out her number but she takes his number.  Ben made his move on her before Tommy got there and he was clearly pissed. Seems like he had deigns on her even before Ben and it didn't appear it was just cos of work either! He's angry and confront Ben.  Cos it's apparent to everyone that there's an attraction between Lindy and Ben.  There's a phone inside the box which rings and George tries to trace it.  It's the killer who was waiting for Lindy to find the phone.

It appears the Vic of the knife attack, Edward Kent (Daniel Alexander) isn't cooperating and he doesn't know who would attack him.  He ordered a girl on the Babylon site, Eve (Danielle Burgess) who also had an eye missing.  She had been beaten up and lost her eye.  Yeager (Marcus Callender) and Tommy think it was his assistant and look up Luca (Dan Tracy) on the computer.  He took a girl named Jennifer to the hospital and it was his sister.  He admits he got Edward back for what he did and all his girlfriends ended up beaten.  Tommy agrees to make a deal with the DA if helps them shut down Babylon.

Lindy plays the USB stick and it's an interview Ben gave Catherine.  He wasn't happy where things were heading and Lindy being used like that.  Catherine berates him on arresting her and she didn't expect he'd fall in love with her.  He looks into the camera and says he doesn't regret anything that he did.  Lindy also finds the St Christopher when she trips on the stairs, after George warns her that they're coming back in.  She has a flashback to Ben telling her the St Christopher was for protection as he puts it around her neck.  She heads to the room with the box and George traces the phone saying it's been used by the killer at the Unit.  She tries to get out but the door's locked.  A masked figure appears behind the glass and I have to say, this time round, it sounded more like Tommy to me than Ben.  Though it sounded like Ben all those other times.  Is the Flirtual killer Tommy, he does kinda speak through his nose.  The killer just wanted her to know who she was helping, when she helped Bubonic.

Apparently Lindy had a meeting with Bubonic a year ago who wanted her help in hacking files.  He said the person who hired him had info on her sister.  Ben arrested Lindy so she wouldn't get hurt. Tommy tells Lindy that Catherine had information on a case where a man abducted girls, similar to Sarah's abduction.  That's why Ben got into trouble cos he wanted Catherine to tell Lindy about it.  At the end of the day she tells Tommy that whatever this was, it's over between her and the him and walks out.  That made him angry.

Sophia (Kiersey Clemons) has concerns over Tessa (Theodora Woolley) and finds her parents aren't divorcing like she said, she's in trouble, but she won't talk about it.  Connor (John Garet stoker) and Sophia find Tessa with some red haired guy on their couch and Connor is certain he knows him. Later at the club he finds his photo on the Flirtual site.  Sophia types up blond woman and finds Tessa's photo on the site, wearing Lindy's jacket.   She'll be in trouble now with the killer after her. Sophia tries to call Lindy but she hangs up, as she watches Catherine.  We know Tessa would get it sooner or later.

So after all that it seems I'm putting my money on Tommy being the killer now, even if I'm wrong. He was beaten to her by Ben, and now when he thought he might be in with a chance especially after last week's kiss, it seems she's no longer helping them.  Thus he's been scorned a second time.  what better way to get the competition out of the way than by killing Ben.  The killer also loves her and who loves her right now, well Tommy of course and that's why Tessa's the killers next target cos she's pretending to be Lindy.  Just as the show was getting exciting, they cancelled!!  Thanks for nothing!
