'Blindspot' Season 5 Episode 8: Tasha almost strangles Madeline to death, fans find the scene 'so satisfying'
Tasha Zapata (Audrey Esparza) has nerves of steel, there's no doubt about that. In the latest episode of 'Blindspot', the team is ambushed by Madeline Burke (Mary Elizabeth) and her satanic minions. Rich Dotcom (Ennis Esmer) and Patterson (Ashley Johnson) try their best to escape, but it seems we've lost Patterson though fans refuse to accept it and are praying for a miracle.
Madeline played her cards carefully and trapped the team well. At the beginning of the episode, Patterson was struggling to find out Madeline's plans, but turns out she was preparing to strike and was watching their every move. She closes in on Tasha (Audrey Esparza), who goes to visit Keaton, who is forced to work for Madeline now, because she's threatened to kill his family. Tasha realizes this, but it is too late, as Madeline and her team bursts in on Tasha. Keaton tries to betray Madeline, but is shot in the process.
Yet, Tasha doesn't give in without a fight. Despite being in slightly precarious health due to her pregnancy, a tied-up Tasha still has the energy to break her chair and almost strangles Madeline to death. Unfortunately, Madeline's minions enter the room and stop her from doing so. If only Tasha had a couple of more seconds?
Fans are in awe of Tasha. "OOOOHHHHH!!! So close to choking the life outta Madeline. Talk about Reade and you gonna get them hands from Tasha," a fan tweeted.
"Watching Tasha choke Madeline for those few seconds was so satisfying," a fan wrote.
"Tasha just needed 5 more seconds to finish strangling this bitch," another tweeted.
"HOLY FUCK TASHA THAT WAS SO COOL," another wrote.
"Tasha is such a badass, my god," a fan tweeted.
"BITE HER THROAT TASHA," a fan wrote.
"KICK HER ASS, TASHA! FINISH MADELINE!!! #Blindspot," a fan wrote.
In the episode for next week, we see the team being interrogated by Madeline and her squad. Yet, all hope is not lost yet, because Ally, Weller's ex-wife might just come round too and we *refuse* to believe that Patterson is dead, and she's found a way to escape.
'Blindspot' airs on Thursdays at 9 pm on NBC.
