She recognized Jessica's husband ON SIGHT. That's creepy. Jessica I could buy as being in John's file, but why was Jessica's husband of any concern at all? that's knowing a little too much, IMO. (maybe they didn't think that through, though, hard to know at this stage how much to read into it)
Yeah, i think he elevated Jessica as the one who got away (reminds me of how Rachel tells Bruce in Dark Knight that she can't be his hope for salvation) , but everyone else is categorized as asset/target/neutral and he doesn't trust anybody, not really. He trusts Carter to the extent that he believes she's a good person, doing the right thing, and that makes her predictable, but that's not really a personal trust, that's just categorizing her strength as an asset (and weakness - she'd never work inside the bad cops, for ex). Whereas Fusco's strength is that he was dirty, and nowtthat the "operation" has run up against these bad cops severral times now I think John's putting his asset in place to take them down. Methodical, but brutal, too.
Maybe that was a director mis-cue with the trunk? Or was he smacked in the head after Undercover dude shot him? MUST WATCH AGAIN. :D
