“Funny, my phone has the same ring… Strange, don’t you think that we both have the same… Wait a second. That is my phone. You stole my phone.”
- Stephanie
Despite last night’s exciting Golden Globes, we hope you were nevertheless able to tune in to the Human Target series premiere, as aired yesterday on FOX. As most of you will know, Tricia Helfer guest starred in the episode as Stephanie, the client. Here’s our recap of the episode; as always, please highlight to read as it contains spoilers:
Four weeks after an explosive case, “human target” Christopher Chance is approached with a new assignment by Stephanie, a bullet train engineer whose life has come under threat for unknown reason. Chance is immediately on board, and infiltrates Stephanie’s entourage as her new translator, fluent in Japanese. On the train’s maiden voyage, Chance plans to lure out the killer by exposing Stephanie to him, and when he finally strikes, Chance is able to take him out. But with the train’s brakes being sabotaged and suffering critical damage, it now becomes uncertain whether any of them will make it off the train alive, all the while Chance and his friends try to figure out who’s really trying to get Stephanie killed…
What did you think of the new pilot? Personally, I was expecting it to be a lot more like USA Network’s Burn Notice, and was pleased to see the pilot instead held its own. Tricia Helfer was also great in her role, even though she didn’t get a lot of meaningful things to say; most of the punchlines were given to Mark Valley’s Christopher Chance.
Media coverage-wise, we’ve updated the gallery with 783 medium-res screen captures of Tricia on the show. We’ll be replacing these caps with HD ones as soon as possible, and will also upload video clips from this episode soon, so do check back with us for those. In the mean time, enjoy the first caps!
