Theres nothing like a good old-fashioned politically motivated killing to kick off an episode ofBlindspot.

He says that he doesnt have to do this.

As the man bleeds out, he writes three letters in his own blood: GPA.

Weller asks her how her run was, and says she should invite him next time.

Look, some conflict between Jane and Weller is perfectly fine!

Thats a bit of a no-no when it comes to being the assistant director of the bureau.

That case is triggered by the letters from the murder that opened the episode.

They never figure out what the GPA in the tattoo stood for, but this murder narrows it down.

Patterson and Rich assume its pointing to a powerful lobbying group called Growth and Prosperity for America.

Jane and Weller are there, though, and they stop the attack just in time.

Still, they have no idea whats been unfolding.

Its a rather lackluster end to a pretty boring case.

Theres nothing here that feels urgent or threatening, and theres no context for all the political maneuvering.

In fact, the episode in general is rather dull.

Maybe the next episode will actually move that story forward.
