Where to Begin...

Scoop of the Week:
A certain little morsel has been brought to my attention, from some lucky (brave) spy who happened to catch a glimpse at the first page of the script. And let me assure my detractors that neither lead actress Emily Thomson, nor her roommate, Maggie Dougher, had anything to do with this leak. (Maggie's friends have insisted that I stop asking her for info...suspicion was growing in her direction. Of course, she knows who I am, but stop asking her to give me away. She's much too loyal.) This tip arrived by annonymous email a couple days ago. Anyway, the spy only saw one word on the first page:

The Balkans

Of course, that's not much of a spoiler, but it does give us some room to conjecture. If, as some rumors have seemed to suggest, the Hitman has a past association with the Balkans, might this first scene be of his old colleagues discussing his imprisonment, springing him from prison, or his prior escape from prison? In any case, getting Hitman out of prison some way or another will have to be a part of the first few episodes, I think, which leads to another conjecture: the imminent death of either Josh Garboczi, David Snyder, or both, since they were cast as prison guards last season.
