Final Thoughts
Final Thoughts: With OA dealing with the consequences of defying orders while the team races to stop a resurging terrorist threat, “Long Shot” looks like one of the season’s more intense episodes. Character fallout plus national-security stakes is a strong combination this late in the season.
