'Burn Notice' Season Finale: Unexpected Surrender Stuns Michael (VIDEO)


First Posted: 12/16/11 02:35 AM ET Updated: 12/16/11 02:50 AM ET

For weeks now, Michael has been doing everything in his power to protect Fiona from Anson. It's caused him to compromise a lot, even crossing lines that he might not have otherwise crossed. All because Anson used this leverage he had over Fiona to force Michael to do his bidding. On the "Burn Notice" (Thu., 10PM ET on USA) season finale, Fiona finally took control of the situation in the only way she knew how.

Well, more specifically, the only way she saw left to her after Michael stepped between her sniper sight and Anson's head. So she turned herself in for murder. It was because of incriminating evidence against her that Anson had this power in the first place, and so by sacrificing herself, she freed Michael.

"You do what's right, no matter the cost to you," she wrote him in a letter. "And I've learned that when you love a spy, you have to be willing to make that sacrifice, too."

Our heroine has been set up to be somehow liberated by our hero. Sigh, it's all so beautiful and romantic!
I'm glad Fe's character has been upgraded. She was just a side kick verging on irrelevant...now her role has some teeth.....and more commendable cojones than before.

Love this series!

Upgraded? She's now just a damsel in distress. If anything, it's a major downgrade.

Unsuspecting...until you read the headline. It's my own fault, though, for not watching the episode before coming to the entertainment section. Although, really, you knew Fiona surrendering was likely going to happen eventually. But what fans know that wasn't included in the article is the fact that Fiona is innocent. She only rigged a small explosion, but Anson manipulated the explosion to make it big enough to kill the security guards in the building. In terms of the law, I suppose she's probably guilty of felony murder even considering Anson's involvement, but who really knows in tvland?
