No doubt this episode was shot to perfection, especially for a dramedy series on NBC. Some scenes felt like they were taken out of movies like "Platoon". On the other hand, I was expecting more answers as to how Jack loses his brother. However, it was nice seeing the build-up and background between the two. I imagine the Nick character is going to be explored more as the season progresses. Great guest stars too, including Michael Angarano as Jack's brother and Michael Ironside as Jack's grandfather, who gave us a glimpse of why Jack's dad may have became the way he did. Overall great episode, just didn't quite live up to the hype.
