Episode 6 – "Sugar Land" – saw a major reveal in the closing moments when Joe was handed off to an Iranian extraction team.

In what can only be described as an absolutely bone-chilling scene, it is laid out in brutal terms what awaits her in Iran. A fate far worse than death.

The Iranian agent then proceeded to cut her toe off. It was a shocking moment, but I would argue it wasn't even the craziest moment of the episode.

The coolest moment was by far when Kyle and two Delta Force operators found the Iranian plane waiting to fly her out of the USA.

A bloody and epic gun battle unfolded on the tarmac, and happened with such lightning speed that it was mind-boggling. It's clear that whoever is advising Sheridan on the series knows what they're doing. Everything about the Delta Force shootout scene felt incredibly real.

Reactions were also quick to pour in on Reddit to the episode. Check out some below:

Now, there are two more episodes left in Season 3, and the race to find Joe is winding down. Hopefully, fans get a very violent conclusion, which is what the entire season has been building up. Hit me with your best theories at David.Hookstead@outkick.com.
