On Bionic Woman episode 2, Jaime decided she’s okay with joining the agency, where she learns that doing so will allow her to help save countless lives.
Jaime learns that, with practice, she can hack into herself and change the information. She then learns she’s got a GPS in her so they can track exactly where she is, which upsets her because she feels it’s an invasion of privacy. Jonas calls her and tells her to stop a guy from leaving. He’s not real into the whole being cooperative thing, so she needs to use force.
Sarah Corvis goes to see Jay’s father Anthony, who tells her he can help her if she brings him Jaime.
Jonas assigns Jaime to babysit a “spirited” teenage girl to avoid a war with Canada.
Becca and Jaime are talking about family and how Becca’s a packrat saving everything from their past. Becca tells her she saves everything because she doesn’t like secrets.
Following some odd hard to follow flashing sequences that may or may not be flashbacks/dreams/insanity, Sarah shows up and wakes up Jaime, telling her to meet her alone without backup. She tells Jaime she needs her, too. Jaime goes to Jonas and agrees to help bring her in but wants him to promise if they bring her in, they’ll help her.
When she shows up to meet Sarah, Sarah tells her she’s sick and needs her help to get well. She tells the story of how Will revived her from the dead. Sarah wants Jaime to save her life by correcting her from losing her way again with the more advanced technology in the newer design. The brilliant tactical thinker she is, Sarah decides to tell Jaime that Will was just using her, so she doesn’t get anywhere. Not yet anyway. Before they can really get to the bottom of things, though, backup shows up, and Sarah has to run away.
The fact that backup showed up convinces Jaime to want to help Sarah some, which the argument she heard didn’t appear like it would accomplish in itself. There’s concern that she was going to say something that Jonas didn’t want to be revealed.
Four guys show up and get into a fight with Jaime because they’re after the girl she’s watching. Sarah just sits back and enjoys the show, waiting for an admission she’s needed. Once she hears the word, they kick ass together, which is followed by Sarah again saying she needs Jaime’s bionics so she doesn’t die.
As a show of good faith, Sarah teaches Jaime how to visualize the tracker and disable it with her thoughts, allowing her to no longer have someone watching her every move. Jaime wants Sarah to go back with her, but she’s not having any of that since she doesn’t trust them anyway, plus with Will’s death, there aren’t any surgeons there.
And now we finally figure out what the heck was going on earlier in the episode (or at least I finally figured it out). Could have done without the creepy visual effects. Anthony talks about how she killed her sister and how Jaime will never trust her until she can relate to her. The previous scene replays, where Sarah was sideswiped by a truck, with her sister in the passenger seat.
When she gets home, Sarah’s chatting with Becca, pretending to be their new neighbor. Sarah threatens to kill Becca but proves Jaime right when she says there is some humanity left in her. Then Jaime turns her tracker back on and threatens to kill Sarah the next time she sees her near her family. She is, again, warned that she can’t trust the people she’s working with, and that Will didn’t love her but just studied her.
