Review - Burn Notice Season 4 Episode 15 Brotherly Love

Nate is a really tedious character, always getting Michael in trouble with his money schemes. "Brotherly Love" had nice brotherly love, but everything could have been avoided if Nate got a real job or something. Clearly, he doesn't have Michael's skills, so he should just settle down and do things normally. To make things worse, Madeline rags on Michael the entire episode. The reason? Nate's going to have a child. Sorry, but that means Nate should leave and allow the real professionals to get things done.

Michael uses his suited car thief persona (I think the episode was about protecting a neighborhood.) to help Nate, but the plot goes nowhere as they know who the car thief is, the drug dealer's right hand mad, so the only thing left is presenting the evidence. In the end, they get the car into the thief's house and we can imagine what the drug dealer did to him.

While that's happening, Jesse and Sam are in Santo Domingo trying to grab the list. At the end of the episode, with Michael and Fi's help, they take down the motorcyclist, steal the list, and get away. Michael faces a hard choice at the end of the episode: follow through and take revenge on those who burned him, or, like Nate, settle down and leave the spy life behind?

Score: 8.4/10
