What do we need to remember from last season? Oh, just that Charlie did bad things behind the FBI’s back with the work of a fellow genius, who the FBI believes is a possible terrorist. The Federal Authorities arrived at the Eppes home to arrest Charlie. And now on to this season!

What we learned this while watching NUMB3RS:
- Don’t go rock climbing when bad guys are looking for you, you’ll not really get to hang in there.
- Charlie isn’t in prison because the judges accepted the government’s motion to drop all charged against him. Oh, Don thinks that makes Charlie lucky – umm YEAH!
- Charlie still doesn’t have his security clearance back.
- Lou Diamond Phillips is actually pretty good in anything he does. Do you remember Young Guns? He was awesome!
- Meghan is really gone (tear). Special Agent Nikki Betancourt is now in the house!
- Larry and Amita are still working with the FBI even though Charlie can’t. AWKWARD! (I wrote this before Larry said it in the show, I swear!)
- Bouldering is a skill that will never appear on my resume.
- Robin, Don’s lawyer type girlfriend, is still around.
- Optic Crystal Graphic Analysis is yet another thing math experts know about, that FBI agents (and 98% of the free world) don’t.
- Iron Man came out on DVD this week. Cool. I haven’t seen it yet, should I?
- More small planes have disappeared over the continental U.S. than have vanished in the Bermuda Triangle. So they said on Mythbusters – so said Larry on NUMB3RS. Mythbusters = Great Show!
- The words “Squish Squash” means something important to math geniuses. To me, it’s just what’s on my boots after a day at the pumpkin farm.
- Cell phones don’t work in the Mojave Mountains. Not even fancy schmancy FBI ones.
- MS Word doesn’t have a synonym for the word schmancy.
- Lou Diamond Phillips doesn’t care Charlie can’t work with the FBI – so Charlie does.
- Climbing trees – it’s not just for cool forts anymore.
- Larry is a master manipulator.
- Don thinks Charlie should appeal the FBI’s decision. Why? Because “Screw it”, that’s why.
- I’m home watching this at 10pm on a Friday night, is this a good thing?
So, how did you guys like the the return of NUMB3RS to our Friday nights? Do you consider it a triumphant return? If so, why? If not – well, why the hell not? Share it with the class in the comments, the Professor will be listening!
